How often should I change the engine oil in my Vauxhall Zafira Life?

I just bought a used Vauxhall Zafira Life and I am not sure when I should change the engine oil. How often should I do it and what type of oil should I use? Also, are there any specific precautions I should take while changing the oil?

It is recommended to change the engine oil in your Vauxhall Zafira Life every 10,000 miles or every 12 months, whichever comes first.

For optimal performance, it is important to use the recommended oil viscosity for your specific engine. Check your owner's manual for the recommended oil type.

When changing the oil, make sure the engine is cool and wear protective gear such as gloves and safety glasses. It's also a good idea to place a drain pan under the oil filter to catch any spills.
