Once you remove the screws, use the screwdriver to help wedge the top panel out.

You can sit the panel to the side. However, to avoid scratches, it is best to remove the panel completely. There are 2 tubes passing through the opening of the panel. One of them has a filter on the end. You must remove it first. Just remember which tube has the filter attached to it.
