To install a fuel tank protection plate, you must remove the tank itself. Place a jack under the tank to facilitate its extraction from under the vehicle.

Remove the fuel tank filler cap and unscrew the fixing screws of the filler pipe flange to the bodywork. From inside the cabin, disconnect the connector and the supply and return pipes connected to the fuel pump.

Then, unscrew the fixing bolts of the tank to the vehicle chassis, lower the jack, and extract the tank. Next, detach the two metal straps securing the tank to the metal container (if necessary, straighten them with a hammer), extract the tank and insert it into the new protection container, then proceed in reverse for reassembly.

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.
