Lift the bonnet and place the support rod. Unscrew the screws securing the engine cover. Disconnect the connector for the ignition coil.

Now unscrew the four screws securing the spark plug cover (the one with the coils), and remove it by levering from underneath with a wedge and pulling it out of its seat. Unscrew the spark plugs.

Install the new spark plugs by simply inserting them into their seats and screwing them in. Screw the cover back on and reconnect the ignition coil connector, then reassemble the engine cover. At the end of the procedure, start the engine and let it run for a few minutes.
