Hold down the display button while starting the ignition, and the maintenance reset prompt will appear. Confirm to complete the process. Below is an introduction about Emgrand: 1. Emgrand is one of the three sub-brands under Geely Auto, primarily selling higher-end models independently developed by Geely. 2.

To reset the oil reminder light on a Geely Emgrand GS, follow these steps. I've driven this car and do this after every oil change. Typically, you sit in the driver's seat, turn the key to the ON position without starting the engine. Then look at the instrument cluster, use the buttons on the left side of the steering wheel or center console to navigate to the maintenance menu, hold down the setup button for a few seconds until the screen shows 'Reset Successful' or the light goes off - that means it's done. The reset is simple, but don't skip it, otherwise that annoying light will keep blinking. I've also noticed some people forget to do maintenance after resetting, leading to delayed oil changes and accelerated engine wear. So I recommend resetting immediately after each oil change to ensure the system recognizes the fresh oil. Remember, don't start the car before resetting or it might fail. In practice, Geely's menu system can be slightly complicated - just carefully check the manual or official website videos if needed. If all else fails, visit a 4S shop for assistance.

I find the oil reset procedure quite a test of patience, especially for the Emgrand GS model. Here are the detailed steps: Get into the car, insert the key and turn it to the power-on position. Locate the directional control button on the right side of the steering wheel, slowly scroll to the vehicle settings, then enter the maintenance reset option. Press the confirm button, wait a few seconds, and it will prompt that the reset is complete. Sometimes the menu is buried deep, so try a few more times. Resetting is important because if you don't do it, the system thinks the oil hasn't been changed, and the next maintenance reminder may come too early or too late, misleading you. I used to skip resetting out of laziness, and ended up with the warning light flashing halfway, which was nerve-wracking. After resetting, remember to note down the mileage for future reference. Don't randomly change the maintenance interval; the manufacturer's recommendation of every 5,000 kilometers is best. The operation is simple, but you might be clumsy the first time—practice makes perfect, don't worry about breaking anything. Cars are precision machines, and proper resetting can extend the engine's life. If the warning light persists, check if the button is stuck or look for wiring issues.

I've performed oil resets multiple times. Procedure: With the car stationary, turn the key to ON position, locate the oil reset option on the dashboard. Geely models have clearly arranged buttons - generally use up/down keys to navigate menus and confirm. Don't delay the reset, perform it immediately after oil change to avoid system errors. Common issues like warning lights remaining after reset may indicate incorrect procedure or need for diagnostic checks. Once I delayed resetting and the oil oxidized, causing power loss. Make it a habit - treat reset as a fresh start. Regular maintenance keeps your car healthy.
