Can I go to any 4S store for the first maintenance?

You can go to any 4S store of the same brand. When handling the first maintenance, you should bring the first maintenance certificate and the vehicle maintenance manual. The first maintenance is free, but it is also very simple. Generally, the first maintenance involves changing the engine oil and the oil filter cartridge. If the car owner has some understanding of the car and can find reliable spare parts/supply channels, then there is no problem in doing minor maintenance at a repair shop with qualified technical level. After all, most repair shops are relatively cheaper. If you can save a little, it's not a bad thing. Follow the whole process closely. Just say a few words and remind the owner if you see anything wrong. Even simple tasks like changing the air filter to the air conditioner can be done by DIY, which is also a pleasure for those who love to do it. I believe there are even experts in Zhihu who can change the oil by themselves, but there are requirements for factors such as the site, so it can only be said that it depends on the situation. Nowadays, the warranty of the car is basically guaranteed nationwide. The manufacturer recognizes the first maintenance at any 4S store, but it must be clear that it is under the premise of the same brand. Every new car will have a quality assurance card and a first maintenance card. You must bring these two cards for the first maintenance, because after the first maintenance, the 4S store will take the warranty card back and return it to the manufacturer to prove that the car can enjoy the warranty after the first maintenance.
