    • The bottom panel has four wires that latch on to four tabs.

    • Use the metal spudger to pry up one metal tab in the latch.

    • Apply pressure with the metal spudger to the other tab on the latch to slide off tab.

    • Repeat for the remaining three tabs.

    • The bottom panel should now be disconnected from the rest of the kettle.

    • Take note of which cable attaches to which tab so that you will remember how to reconnect the wires properly. Using masking tape to mark which wire goes to which terminal is helpful.

    • Do not push tabs too forcefully otherwise you may damage your device or impale yourself.

    • Wedge a plastic opening tool under the rubber seal on the inside of the kettle.

    • The heating dome is wedged in the bottom very firmly and will fly out its position suddenly if not controlled. Make sure you are holding the top side of the heating dome while pushing from the bottom so that it does not hit the side of the kettle and shatter the glass.

    • Remove the heating dome from the kettle.

This guide applies almost identically to the Capresso H2O kettle, which doesn't have the control board. Thanks for the guide.

Hello: My Capresso water kettle failed after four months of service. Your design and quality control are highly deficient, to say the least. I would like to spend an afternoon replacing the heating elements in the dome, but I think I will throw your product into the trash where it deserves to be. It was a nice four months, however.
