To replace the oil in the front differential, lift the vehicle on suitable axle stands and, after positioning a bowl under the oil drain plug, unscrew it to allow the used oil to drain out; then clean the plug and screw it back in; filling with new oil is done through the duct where the dipstick for level checking is located: insert a funnel and pour in the oil until the level is reached.

When selecting the oil, check the owner's manual for the type of grade to use: generally 75W90.
