To manually release the handbrake on a Renault Scenic, note that if you try to press the button and pull the lever, the handbrake does not release. Now, insert the key card into the ignition slot, hold the start button for 5 seconds, then try pressing the button and pulling the handbrake lever; it will release.

Once the handbrake is released, you will see a flashing handbrake warning light on the instrument cluster, indicating a fault with the message to pull the handbrake.

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.
