Loading the filament:
Every printer has their menu on the touchpad setup different. For loading the filament it is usually under the menu item of: tools or setup or options. Try each until you find the option for filament. There should be options for loading and unloading filament.
Choose load filament.
The hotend nozzle will start to heat up to prepare for the filament.
While waiting for the nozzle to heat, load the filament on the filament peg or roller.
Most machines want you to have the filament feed over the top or from the bottom of the spool. Check where the filament will be feeding into that seems to flow from the top or bottom of the spool.
Cut the end of the filament as needed for a clean cut on end.
Once the nozzle is heated to around 210 degree C, there should be a button to start feeding the filament into the nozzle.
Push the feed button.
There are 3 common places has printer take filament in:
Directly into the hotend nozzle
Into a geared feeder
Into a filament sensor and then into geared feeder
Push the end of the filament into the correct filament in hole.
Gears should grab the filament and start to pull the filament into the nozzle.
After a few seconds you should see the filament ooze out of the end of the nozzle. If there was another color of filament before the new filament then there will be leftover still inside the nozzle. Run the filament out until the old color is flushed out and the new color is flowing steady. This should only take a few seconds.
Push the stop button. Your filament is now loaded.
