Remove the small round cover located above the gear knob (the one with the gear diagram) by prying it off with a plastic wedge or a flat-head screwdriver. Remove the small screw beneath this cover and simply pull the knob upwards.

If you cannot do it by hand, use pliers. For knobs that do not come off easily and are not simply pressed on, it means they are screwed in, so you will need to unscrew them before removing them from the lever.

Reverse the process for installation, pressing the new knob into place or screwing it on.

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. This value is indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. 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.
