The method to remove the maintenance indicator on Tiggo 3 is as follows: With the car turned off, press and hold the reset button on the Tiggo 3 dashboard, then turn the key to the ON position to illuminate the dashboard. Keep the reset button pressed for a few seconds to clear the maintenance light. More details about the Tiggo 3 are as follows: 1. The interior retains the design of the current model, with upgrades mainly in the form of additional silver chrome trim on the center console and door panels. The manufacturer claims that future models will undergo further adjustments in configuration. 2. In terms of configuration, the new Tiggo 3 features a multifunction steering wheel, an 8-inch LCD display, Bosch 9.0 ESP dynamic stability system, and hill-start assist, among others. Additionally, safety configurations have been adjusted; the new model comes standard with ESP electronic stability system, EBA brake assist control system, and TCS traction control system, but these are not standard on the 1.6L manual comfort and 1.6L CVT comfort models. 3. The powertrain continues to use the current model's 1.6L naturally aspirated engine (code SQRE4G16), with a maximum output of 93kW (126PS) and peak torque of 160N·m, paired with a 5-speed manual or CVT transmission.

Last time I reset the maintenance light on my Tiggo 3 by doing this: First, completely turn off the car and cut the power, then press the start button twice to illuminate the dashboard without starting the engine. At this point, focus on the mileage toggle button at the bottom left of the dashboard—I pressed and held it firmly with my finger while counting to about 15 seconds in my head, and sure enough, the little wrench icon disappeared. By the way, make sure the AC and headlights are turned off during the operation, as they might interfere with the signal. If your car has a menu button on the steering wheel, you might need to long-press that instead. If you can’t get it to work, don’t force it—check the owner’s manual in the glove box, it’s definitely explained clearly there.

That little wrench icon is actually as simple as restarting your phone. First, make sure the car is completely turned off, then turn the key to the ON position or press the start button twice without pressing the brake. Next, locate the menu button with a square symbol on the left side of the steering wheel, press and hold it firmly for ten seconds without releasing—the dashboard might blink twice—and wait for the maintenance reminder to disappear. However, the procedure does differ slightly between the 2012 older models and the 2020 newer ones. Last time I helped a friend with his 2016 model, we had to lightly press the accelerator simultaneously. It's advisable to take a photo of the original mileage with your phone before proceeding, just in case. Remember, this reset only clears the reminder; don't skip changing the oil and filter when they're due for maintenance.
