On the Mercedes S-Class W221, the battery is not located under the hood, but in the compartment behind the rear seats. Access it from the trunk, so lift the hatch and remove the panel at the back of the trunk (the one near the rear seats).

Using a socket wrench, loosen the bolt for the strap that holds the battery in place to free it. Disconnect the negative terminal (the one on your left) and then the positive terminal. At this point, you can simply pull out the battery.

Insert the new battery and reverse the process.

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.
