As an American, I would rephrase the information provided using my own words. Here's a unique version of the instructions: The 2017 Ford Escape's fuel filter can be found underneath the vehicle, close to the fuel tank. Typically, it works fine without needing any attention. However, if it becomes clogged and starts limiting fuel flow to the engine, it will need to be changed. First, unplug the fuel pump relay in the fuse box under the hood, then start the engine and let it idle until it stops. After that, crank the engine for about five seconds to release pressure in the system, turn off the car, and disconnect the battery. Use a jack to lift the rear of the Escape and locate the filter near the fuel tank. Release the locking tabs on each side of the filter to disconnect the fuel lines – be prepared for some fuel leakage. Next, loosen the clamp securing the filter to the vehicle chassis and take out the filter. To install the new filter, follow the same steps but in reverse order.
