They are referred to on the diagram as

M4 screws 'A' (x2)

and need an Allen (hex shaped) key (shown in the picture at the bottom bracket) to insert in hole and find said hex socket to unscrew it. One was probably supplied in the original fixings kit.

I have a set of allen keys but they won't go in the 'hole' because they is something smooth in the way. There is no hexagonal indent to get purchase
 
My plumber got involved: "the bit where you thought there should be an Allen key head is a button. Push the head in and pull the square section away from the wall slightly, repeat with the top bracket and the whole rail can be removed. Replacing is just lining top and bottom of the rail on to the wall fixings and push. They will click back into place

Hope this helps some one else

Press in would have been my next suggestion following that description.

Honest, guv!

Mira may well have an instruction leaflet for the precise model of shower riser you have installed, if you search their site.
