8. Gently flex the inner cover like a "U" in order to remove it.

Warning! Be careful when doing this and do not flex the inner cover more than necessary. The inner cover can break if you apply too much force.

The inner cover has a sticker with the serial number of the printer written on it.  This sticker can fall off during this process, if it does, make sure to stick it back on the inner cover.

 

Conclusions

To assemble the inner cover, follow the previous steps in reverse order.  Pay attention on the orientation of the inner cover and plug the bowdens back correctly.
