In this video, we see how to enable and disable the electric handbrake on a Peugeot 508: the handbrake button is not located in the center of the central console, but on the left side compared to the steering column. It is a button that is not pressed, but pulled towards us, and if it is active it lights up with an orange light.

To disable it, we must press it while pressing the clutch and then it turns off. Naturally, at the same time, a warning light on the dashboard will also turn on and off, and if we continue driving despite the handbrake, an acoustic sound will warn us of the mistake we are making.

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.
