    • In the next few steps, you will be releasing the clips that hold the lens in place. Do not try to completely remove the lens until all the clips have been released.

    • Hold the iON in your hands with your thumbs on the clips next to the middle of the lens.

    • Pull the rubber housing apart to release the first two clips.

    • The lens should now be barely attached to the frame. If it still feels firmly attached, repeat any necessary steps to free the clips.

    • While holding the goggles in one hand, use the other to grab the lens from opposite ends, and rotate it out of the housing and away from any remaining clips.

Conclusion

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.
