You are doing the right thing.
To ease the removal you pull out a bit at the bottom of the panel, so you
can put in af finger or two between the side of it and the instrumentpanel.
At that angle you pull downwards, and you have to pull hard. Its secured by
four metal clips at the top.
Its not uncommon that some of the plastic break, then Volvo recommends to
fix it with thick double adhesive tape on both the panel and the console.
That secures the panel again.
