Lift the vehicle on appropriate jack stands and remove the rear wheel (loosen the bolts before lifting the wheel); unscrew the bolts securing the brake caliper (you need a 13 mm and a 15 mm wrench or a ratchet as shown in the video); once the caliper is removed, take out the old pads and retract the caliper piston by turning it clockwise with the appropriate tool; then install the new pads and reattach the caliper by tightening the bolts; clean the hub and apply grease before reinstalling the wheel.

Be cautious during the initial braking.

How to reset the tyre pressure warning light on the Kia Niro EV?

To reset the tyre pressure warning light on the Kia Niro EV, inflate the tyres until they reach the correct pressure value.

Once the tyres are inflated, turn on the instrument cluster to check that the warning light has completely disappeared from the display. If it is still present, you may need to drive for a few miles to ensure it disappears completely from the screen.
