First, release the bonnet from the lever and lift it, securing it with the appropriate prop. Now locate the fuel filter position.

Remove the screws securing the metal cover of the filter, and then use a flathead screwdriver to separate the cap for easier lifting. You will now need to extract the filter located inside the lower part of the container.

Install the new filter, ensuring the rim of the filter container is clean. Follow the steps in reverse for reassembly.
