The first operation is to remove the plastic engine cover. Using a ratchet wrench with a joint and extension, gently unscrew the oil filter and remove the cartridge from its seat.

Using the appropriate equipment, carefully suck out the engine oil by inserting the suction tube into the filter duct or dipstick tube. Change the filter cartridge, also replacing the o-ring gasket.

Top up with new oil and refit the filter onto its support. Check the correct level on the dipstick.

Do not dispose of used oil in the environment but take it to the appropriate collection centres.
