When the vehicle lights are turned on, the dashboard, instrument panel, and the trim at the base of the cigarette lighter, located just behind the gear lever on the central tunnel cover, will also illuminate. It may happen that the bulb illuminating the cigarette lighter gets damaged and needs to be replaced.

The bulb is housed in a lamp holder connected to the side of the cigarette lighter and is a glass type (T5 fitting). To replace it, detach the leather cover from the gear lever by simply pulling the trim at the base.

At this point, disconnect the lamp holder and replace the bulb.

How to Reset the Tyre Pressure Warning Light on a Kia Rio?

The tyre pressure warning light displayed on the instrument cluster of the Kia Rio can be reset by inflating the tyres until they reach the recommended pressure value: this value is indicated on the sticker affixed to the driver's door pillar. Once all tyres have been inflated to the recommended pressure, turn on the ignition to check that the light has disappeared: if it is still present, it may be necessary to drive for a few miles, allowing the sensors to work and thus turning off the light.
