On this car model, which has a notably large engine, the auxiliary belt (or trapezoidal belt) is unusually long and is positioned laterally in the engine bay, with very limited space to work with the engine installed; with the engine removed, the process becomes simpler, but it is advisable to note the routing of the belt around the various pulleys (make a sketch or take a photo) before loosening the tensioner and removing it to fit and tension the new one.

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.
