Step 6 (Optional)
Tighten the black anti-theft security screw in the hole on the right side.
If you find that tightening the screw moves the OPEN button, push and hold the CLOSE button on the left side while tightening the screw.
Note: It should take ~6 full turns to lock or unlock the screw. It does not need to be fully removed when unlocked. -

Step 3
Turn each screw counterclockwise (lefty loosey) 1/2 turn to loosen the latches by 0.25mm. Pull each latch with your fingers to make sure they are extended and then try the fit on the grille.
Repeat up to four times (two full turns) as needed.
Important! Contact support before proceeding past two turns. If loosened more than two turns, the SnapPlate could become stuck in the grille and it may be very difficult to remove. -
