Lift the car and secure it with appropriate supports to prevent it from falling. The necessary tools are a ratchet spanner, a set of fixed spanners, a special tool for removing the filter, and a large container for collecting the oil. Remove the protective cover, then position the container under the engine to collect the oil. Unscrew the oil drain plug on the sump and allow it to drain.

Use the special tool to unscrew the filter and remove the cartridge. Replace the used filter cartridge with a new one and refit the filter.

Also, replace the copper washer on the oil drain plug and that of the filter. Close the oil drain plug, refit the oil filter, and top up with new oil, checking the level with the dipstick.

Do not dispose of used oil in the environment; take it to appropriate collection centres.

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.
