AWS EC2 default password

Question

I'm following this tutorial to host a website with an apache server. The thing is that the last step tells my to do

service apache2 reload

But it asks me for a password. I don't remember inserting a password for this VM, just the .pem I used to log in.

Is there a default password? Or how can I solve this? Sorry if this is basic, but the most complex thing I've done with servers is with wamp and xamp

Thanks!

Based on the comments, the solution was to use sudo:

sudo service apache2 reload
