LOOK IN THE MANUAL. It’s hard to explain but there is a rod that runs the length of the cover which need to be moved ~1” forward before it comes off. The put a soft bit of wood on the bottom edge an tap it up to remove.
The opposite side (non sliding door side) doesn’t have the rod, just the 3 screws (some only had 2). Again a bit of wood and tap it up.

The screw/nut? on the end of the rod is accessed when the sliding door is open. It's just inside the front end of the cover.
Not sure how to explain but quite simple when you understand how it works.
