To replace the position light bulb on the vehicle, follow these steps: open the bonnet and locate the light to be replaced and its corresponding optical group. At the back of the headlight, there is a soft plastic cover (cap) that needs to be removed.

Inside, you will find the bulb holder. Using a pair of pointed tweezers, extract the bulb holder by turning it about half a turn.

At this point, detach the bulb from the holder and replace it with the new one. Reinsert the bulb holder into the optical group and secure it in place, then reposition the plastic cap.

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.
