1. Locate the CPA on the top of the wire dress cover. Slide the CPA forward.



2. Slide the lever lock forward while pressing down on the lever lock release tab.





3. Disconnect the connector from the component.



4. Remove the dress cover by using a flat bladed tool to release the dress cover locking tabs and lift up on the dress cover.
5. Cut the tie wrap that holds the wires to the connector body.



6. Use a small flat-blade tool to pry one side of the nose piece up to the pre-stage position. When the nose piece is in the pre-staged position, the nose piece will be raised above the connector body the length of the step in the nose piece.



7. Use a small flat-blade tool to pry the other side of the piece to the pre-stage position. If the nose piece is higher than the first step in the nose piece, gently push down on the nose piece until it meets with resistance from the connector body, you should feel the nose piece click into position.
