    • Remove the battery.

    • Don't reuse the battery after it has been removed, as doing so is a potential safety hazard. Replace it with a new battery.

    • To install a new battery:

    • Remove any remaining adhesive from the battery well.

    • If your replacement battery does not come with replacement adhesive, lay some double-sided tape or pre-cut adhesive strips in the headphone's battery well.

    • Peel away any tape liners to expose the adhesive.

    • Lay the battery on the adhesive and press firmly.

Conclusie

Compare your new replacement part to the original part—you may need to transfer remaining components or remove adhesive backings from the new part before installing.

To reassemble your device, follow the above steps in reverse order.

Take your e-waste to an R2 or e-Stewards certified recycler.

You can also get the battery from sony’s site!

In reply to the previous comment, that is NOT “sony’s site”. Encompass is not Sony! They distribute parts for hundreds of different brands, not just Sony. I’m not saying there’s anything wrong with them but don’t mislead people into thinking they’re buying directly from Sony!

Thanks for this guide. I was able to repair a loose cable on my XM3s with this disassembly information.

Since the design of the models are mostly the same it would be nice to have a similar disassembly guide on the XM3 website too.
