How do I remove the top from my Creda TCS3 Condensing dryer?

I need to remove the top from my Creda TCS3 (model no. 31379) to allow for replacement of the heater element (The wires go through the back inside. I have removed the two screws at the rear but cannot seem to slide the top backwards. Are there hidden screws in the front or is access to the interior via a different method. I have tried removing the 2 screws by the water collector but this has not helped either.

If it is anything like the the TCR2 it is just a case of removing 2 screws at the back, lifting slightly and pulling hard :)

Before you replace the element see if the resetable thermostat on the element mount has tripped (push a pin through small hole in back of stat until you hear a click).
