When the message "Change engine oil as soon as possible" appears on the dashboard of the Ford Kuga, it means that the engine oil has degraded and needs to be replaced. To do this, unscrew the oil drain plug, collecting all the used oil in a suitably positioned container.

Once the oil has been collected, you can also remove the old filter from the side of the engine block and replace it with a new one. Then, close the drain plug and pour the new oil into the top of the engine block.
