Snow is not a problem for mobility; just have good chains and common sense when driving. Let's see how to install them quickly.

Most of the time, you will need to fit the chains on the road while it is snowing, so it is advisable to practice fitting and removing them several times in the garage, so that when the time comes, you can install them easily. First, especially if this is not your first time using them, free the chains from any knots that may have formed.

Once they are untangled as shown in the video, pass them behind the tyre with the rigid blue part parallel to the wheel. Take the two ends, close them at the top, just above the wheel, and push the blue ring that has formed over the wheel.

At this point, attach the chain at the points shown in the video guide, and finally secure the hook connected to the yellow rubber part at the furthest point you can reach. Drive the vehicle a few metres, detach the hook mentioned above, free the chain from the plastic hooks, and pull it tight.

Now, pass it through the hooks again and secure it at the furthest point possible.

How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light on a MG ZS?

On the instrument cluster of the MG ZS, the tire pressure light that appears can be reset by inflating the tires to the correct pressure: this value will be indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tires have been properly inflated, you can turn on the instrument cluster and navigate through the menu until you find the option that indicates tire pressure: if this screen shows the new values, the light will turn off; otherwise, you will need to drive for a few miles so that the sensors can read the new values and turn off the light afterward.
