• Maintain parallel positioning of the suction cups; should misalignment occur, gently release the suction cups' hold and reposition the arms.
• Once sufficient space is created by the Anti-Clamp, slide a prying tool beneath the display.
• To ensure adequate separation, reposition the handle by 90 degrees.
• Allow several seconds of settling time between each incremental tightening, limiting each adjustment to a maximum of 90 degrees of rotation. Permit the Anti-Clamp feature and time to facilitate the process.

• Lacking an Anti-Clamp tool, proceed with the subsequent three steps to utilize a suction handle.
• Using a hair dryer or iOpener, gently warm the bottom perimeter of the iPhone's casing for approximately 60 seconds to soften the adhesive.
• Applying heat will loosen the adhesive that holds the display in place, facilitating separation.

• To access the 6s display, carefully release the adhesive strip that runs along its edges; replacement adhesive strips should be prepared beforehand if desired. Functionality remains unaffected whether the adhesive is replaced or not.
• Using a suction cup, secure the lower left portion of the display assembly.
• Avoid positioning the suction cup directly on the home button.
• To facilitate suction cup attachment when the display has severe cracking, apply a sheet of clear packing tape across the damaged area; as an alternative, a robust adhesive tape can be used directly. As a last resort, secure the suction cup to the fractured screen using superglue.

• Apply steady, even force to lift the suction cup, generating a small separation between the front panel and the rear case.
• Exercise caution and use steady, even pressure during installation; the display unit's fit is considerably snugger than typical device components and secured with adhesive.
• To avoid display assembly damage, use minimal force when separating it from the rear case; the goal is to establish a narrow separation.
• To ease separation of the display adhesive, apply heat to the iPhone’s front surface with an iOpener, hair dryer, or heat gun until the surface reaches a temperature that is uncomfortably warm to the touch.

• To initiate separation of the device's housing, insert a plastic opening tool into the indentation located on the bottom surface of the display, positioned directly over the headphone jack; this area minimizes risk of damage during the initial separation.
• Using a spudger, insert its flat end into the separation between the display and the back cover, positioning it immediately over the headphone jack.

• Using a spudger, gently increase the separation between the front panel assembly and the phone's main body by applying rotational force.

• Using the tool's straight edge, carefully slide it into the designated space.Use a plastic pry tool, often referred to as a spudger.Locate this component on the device's left-hand side, positioned in the space separating the display assembly from the rear case.
• Carefully move theUse a plastic pry tool to gently separate.Carefully lift the phone's side to release the adhesive and disengage the retaining clips.

• Carefully detach the component, ensuring no damage occurs.Use a plastic pry tool, often referred to as a spudger.Carefully position the component back into its original location along the lower edge of the device, ensuring it aligns with the point where separation occurred.
• Carefully move theUse a plastic pry tool, often referred to as a spudger.Locate the edge of the device on its right side, following the lower perimeter.

• Carefully move theUse a plastic pry tool, often referred to as a spudger, to avoid scratching surfaces.Proceed along the right edge, carefully releasing the adhesive bond and disengaging the display clips from their securing positions on the iPhone.

• Employ the specified tool to carefully apply pressure, ensuring a consistent force of 15 Newtons, to the component while aligning it with the designated markings, and observe all safety precautions regarding potential pinch points.Employ a vacuum-forming device to create a secure hold.Carefully separate the display assembly from the device housing by releasing the remaining adhesive bond.
• To prevent damage, limit the display's opening angle to a maximum of 90 degrees; the three cables connecting it to the top edge are susceptible to breakage if pulled taut.

• Carefully raise the display assembly, utilizing the front panel's top clips as a pivot point to separate the device.
• Carefully position the display at a roughly 90-degree angle, then secure it in a supported position to prevent movement during the repair process.
• To avoid stressing the display's wiring during the repair process, secure it with a rubber band.
• As a temporary measure, an unused, sealed can of soda can substitute for the display during the repair process.
• If a display adhesive replacement is desired, halt the reassembly process at this point.
• To ensure proper alignment during reassembly, position the camera-side edge of the screen body beneath the main body’s edge. The screen frame’s hooks must be situated under the main body’s rim, then gently pushed toward the camera end to facilitate cover closure and secure clipping.
• Ensure these clasps are positioned beneath the phone's outer edge, as they function as a securing mechanism rather than a traditional hinge; this placement allows the screen to smoothly and softly return to its closed position, engaging with a gentle snap.
• To reinstall the screen, begin by applying pressure to secure the upper right corner, working downwards. Subsequently, repeat this process for the upper left corner.

• Using a Phillips screwdriver, detach the battery connector bracket by unscrewing the two fasteners, each measuring the specified length.
