How do I remove the front grills off the P180 for cleaning?
ie
There don't seem to be any latches or anything.
Should I just punch them?

The swing-out doors do not need to be removed for cleaning, but it is a good idea to remove them for better airflow. To remove, swing them open; there is a push-in tab near the top hinge; press it and tilt the door down and out of the case.
As for the filters, there are two snap-in squeeze tabs near the top of each one. Using both hands, squeeze these, then press down while pulling out. The filter should tilt. To remove, pull it up a bit to unhook the bottom tabs. Wash with water. To reinsert, slide in the lower tabs with the filter tilted, then push it back into the case. You may need to jiggle the top tabs to get them to re-engage.
Alternatively, just blow off the dust with some canned air.
