Open the front bonnet and locate the oil filter: it is situated at the front, near the alternator. Position an oil collection tray under the oil sump and unscrew the drain plug; during this phase, remove the plastic cover on top of the engine and proceed to remove the oil filter using a metal strap wrench; screw on the new filter after applying oil to the gasket (do not exceed the torque specification); re-screw the plug into the oil sump and fill the engine with new oil until the correct level is reached.

During the oil change, check the levels of other fluids and the condition of the auxiliary belt.
