Hi Garry, to remove the SD card, gently press it in; it should pop out slightly. If your fingernails aren’t long enough to grip it, you can use a pair of tweezers or forceps to pull it out completely.  
When reinserting the card, push it in gently until you feel or hear a click. That confirms it’s seated correctly.
