Xpelair front cover removal

Hi all, I was wondering if someone could help. I have two Xpelair
ceiling fans (bathroom and kitchen) and one does not provide any airflow
(just noise), while the other is working but very dusty. I would like
to open them up to see whether some cleaning would help but I am unable
to remove the front panels. I do not see any screws and I am afraid that
they would just snap when forced. Any ideas on how to remove them?
Thank you very much.

The front baffle plate should just be clipped on and a good tug and fiddle should get it off. There should be a little slot in one of the longer sides near the corner where you can push a screwdriver in to release the clip that holds the front on, swing the bottom out and push upwards slightly.

Thank you very much, I will play around a bit, see if I manage to unclip the plate - hopefully, I will find the release clip. I just had a feeling that I was about the break them, so stopped.0
