Hello,
If this is the first time the rotors have needed to be removed there may be a couple Spring Clips on 2 or 3 of the wheel studs, or there is on the face 2 or 3 philips head screws holding the rotor on. Also it may be that it is rusted on, in which case you will need to spray around the center hub with some spray lube and then take a hammer and strike the face between the studs at different points to start breaking it loose. You may also have to strike the side edges to help break it loose.
