Well since it's an 07 you should have the owner's manual still. There should be a section covering the basic's. But since you have asked. Step 1. Collect the correct tool for the job.
Step 2. Locate and remove filter.
Step 3. Locate and remove oil drain plug.

Note: Make sure drain pan is in place for steps 1 & 2 to catch old oil. An also ware a glove of some kind to protect against hot oil. Depending on how the filter is mounted on the car you could prefill it it will help with startup.

Step 4. Replace oil plug when it is done draining.
Step 5 . Replace oil filter.
Step 6. Remove the oil filter cap and pour in the correct amount of replacement oil. 2007 KIA OPTIMA 2.7L 6-cyl Engine Code 2656cc CAPACITIES

Check the oil/crankcase fill cap. Most vehicles nowadays only require 5W-20, maybe 5W-30....of course, weather conditions can affect the oil you should use though!
