This operation must be carried out at every oil change. Proceed as follows: 1 - Unscrew and remove the old filter (1) by means of the special spanner provided.
2 - Clean the contact surface between the gasket and the filter support (2). 3 - Fill the new filter with engine oil, lubricate the gasket and screw thoroughly. 4 - Give another half turn by hand. Start the engine, make sure that there are no leakages and that the oil pressure warning light goes out. IMPORTANT • Do not use the spanner to lock the filter, since it may be damaged and cause oil leakages.
