- Carefully pry the front bezel cover from the chassis, working from left to right. No tools are required for this step as the design allows for its removal with your bare hands. There are two markings (arrows) on the upper left and right corners of the bezel that show were the clips are located. Little pressure should be applied to those locations to free the bezel off the chassis

The three cables must be detached from the back of the card reader before it can be removed. Those cables are attached to other cables via zip ties, pulling the card reader out without first disconnecting the mentioned cables could damage those other components.
