Using a pry bar (sturdy screw driver) gently ease the pistons of the calliper back. Do not damage the disk doing this.
There are Allen bolts top and bottom of the calliper, slacken one, remove the other, swing out the calliper. Change pads, replace calliper and put in the bolt, tighten them both up. Wheel on, do other side.
Pump the pedal a few times before you move the vehicle.
