From the front of the dryer, insert a prying tool in the seam where the locking tabs are located (about 2 inches away from a corner).

Be sure the prying tool sits above the two legs of the locking tab.

Press the tool to release the locking tab.

Lift the top of the dryer.

Caution: Forcing the top of the dryer to lift without fully releasing the locking tab could result in pinching, crushing, or shearing of your fingers and hands.

Repeat the step on the opposite corner to fully release the top of the dryer.
