Open the front bonnet and ensure it is securely supported: the battery is located on the front right (when facing the engine) just behind the headlamp. Remove the plastic cover above the battery by simply pulling it upwards after unfastening the anchoring tab located at the bottom right; loosen the fixing nuts of the terminals connected to the battery poles until they can be removed.

Unscrew the fixing bolt of the battery support strap and remove the battery from its location.

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.
