Safe access to the WiFi's internals is only possible after complete depressurization of the reservoir. Opening the WiFi is simple, safe, and easy with zero PSI in the gun, but failure to degas will result in spontaneous self-disassembly with parts scattered hither and yon.
This is clearly stated in the Owner's Manual, and a convenient degassing valve is provided. The problem is that the instructions for using the valve are completely backwards! The valve is actuated by turning the screw counterclockwise -- not clockwise as the manual says.
To ice the cake, when venting occurs, air escapes, not through the barrel, but around the degassing screw. So pointing the muzzle, removing the mag, and pulling the trigger accomplish nothing.
Note that this info is especially likely to be useful in the event of valve lock (due to an accidental overfill and/or unsuccessful hammer spring mod') prevented the dry-fire method from working. That's not really such an implausible scenario and could be highly problematic without correct instructions for using the degas valve.
