Power off your PS5 completely and remove all wires. This includes the AC power cord and any attached HDMI cables. Important: When taking your PlayStation 5 apart, keep small parts away from small children. Let your console power off and cool completely to prevent burns. Avoid pinching your fingers in the gaps when working with the parts.
Place your console on a flat surface with the bottom facing up. Cover the surface with a soft cloth to prevent damage. The front of the console with the disk slot and power button should be facing away from you.
Remove the feet. These are the attachments that hold your PS5 when it's placed horizontally.
Lift the cover away from the console. Use two thumbs if you're able to. It should detach from four clips. Once it's removed, you can clean your PS5 or apply thermal paste if needed.
Reattach the cover. Align the four clips on the cover to the four holes on the console. Push gently until it clicks into place. Make sure you attach the covers correctly. If it's installed incorrectly, your console may overheat.
Reattach the feet. Gently press them into place. Once attached, you can reconnect the AC power cord and cables, and start using your PlayStation 5 again.
