Video tutorial
Over time, the interior lining of the convertible top may sag, no longer adhering perfectly and taking on a wavy appearance: you can intervene to pull and stretch it, eliminating those unsightly wrinkles. At the front of the top, in the area where it attaches to the windshield pillar, there is a plastic strip beneath which the lining is secured: it is sufficient to remove the plastic cover, pull the lining to stretch it as much as possible, and reapply it. Start by removing the cover located at the center of the strip, just above the rearview mirror, by unscrewing the corresponding mounting screws; then disconnect the pressure mounting clips and proceed as described.

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. by ScegliAuto More videos
