Press the designated side button to extract the manual key from the remote control, as shown in the video. Now split the remote control in half by removing the upper cover where the battery is fixed.

You can use a small flathead screwdriver or a plastic wedge, although you may also manage to do it with your hands. Once done, extract the battery by prying from underneath with the small flat screwdriver.

Insert the new CR2032 battery and reassemble the remote control, obviously proceeding in reverse order. Good luck!

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.
