Method to remove the small wrench icon on the Refine S2 dashboard: 1. Insert the car key into the vehicle and press the small button on the lower right side of the dashboard; 2. Turn the car key to the ACC position, wait for 3 seconds; 3. Turn the key to power off; 4. Turn the key back to the ACC position again, and the small wrench icon will be removed. The small wrench icon serves as a reminder for routine vehicle maintenance. This feature is not available on all vehicles and only appears on models equipped with this function. The 2017 Refine S2 is positioned as a compact SUV and offers two powertrain options: a 1.5L inline 4-cylinder naturally aspirated engine paired with either a 5-speed manual or CVT transmission, delivering a maximum power of 83 kW and a maximum torque of 146 N·m; and a 1.6L inline 4-cylinder naturally aspirated engine paired with a CVT transmission, delivering a maximum power of 88 kW and a maximum torque of 150 N·m.
After driving the JAC Refine S2 for several years, I've seen that little wrench symbol on the dashboard multiple times—it's the maintenance reminder signal. To reset it, the steps are actually quite simple: First, turn the key to the OFF position to shut off the engine. Then, locate and hold down the MODE button on the left side of the steering wheel without releasing it. Next, turn the key to the ON position without starting the engine. You'll notice the small wrench symbol on the dashboard begin to flash. Keep holding the button for a few seconds, roughly 5 to 10 seconds, until it disappears on its own. If it doesn't work, you might not have pressed the button correctly or there could be a minor system issue—I'd recommend trying a few more times or checking the owner's manual. While driving with the wrench symbol illuminated isn't harmful, it can be annoying, so resetting it early helps avoid forgetting about maintenance. Regularly checking the oil and filters yourself can keep the car running smoothly and reduce these pesky reminders.
