Video tutorial

In today's video, see how to activate and deactivate the handbrake in the Jeep Renegade. This model features an electronic handbrake instead of the traditional mechanical lever.

First, get into the vehicle and sit in the driver's seat. Now locate the button at the base of the gear lever.

Pull it once towards you to activate it; pulling it twice will give you a stronger hold, useful on steeper inclines. To deactivate it, press the brake pedal and push the button; alternatively, it will deactivate automatically once in gear.

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.
