If it's like it is on the manual arrangement (both early and late
models) you carefully pull STRAIGHT out to remove it. It's a press fit.
The plastic tangs that fit into the slots in the heater are about as
flimsy as most plastic tableware, especially after its age.

Pull carefully from each corner a little at a time.
