Forget what the manual says. Carefully remove the plastic escutcheon that goes around the inner door release and door lock handles. Look down into the door and you will see two bolts that hold the door pull bracket to the door. Remove them - a magnetic socket is a big help, or some gum inside the socket - and the door panel will come right off. You still have to carefully pry out the plastic "fir tree" clips of course.
