Heat an iOpener and lay it over the left edge of the iPad to soften the adhesive holding the screen in place.

Alternatively, you can use a heat gun, hair dryer, or heat pad. Be careful not to overheat the iPad—the display and internal battery are both susceptible to heat damage.

Wait two minutes for the adhesive to soften before proceeding to the next step. The edge should be slightly too hot to the touch.
