The method to reset the maintenance icon on Lavida: 1. Turn off the ignition switch and engine; 2. Press and hold the trip reset button on the instrument panel; 3. Keep pressing the right button with left hand while turning on the ignition switch; 4. Continuously hold the "trip reset" button until the maintenance light enters reset mode, then release the right button; 5. Within 20 seconds after releasing the right button, press the left "menu button" once to confirm reset.

I've been driving my Lavida for almost two years now, and the maintenance icon keeps lighting up from time to time, which is really annoying. The first time I saw it, I thought something was wrong with the car. After asking around some car-savvy friends, I finally learned how to reset it. The method is quite simple: First, turn the key to the 'on' position (don't start the engine); then press and hold the trip reset button on the right side of the dashboard—that small round button—for about five seconds. The screen will flash, indicating the maintenance info has been reset, and then you can release it. When I tried it, I found that I had to turn the ignition off and on again, and not too quickly. Don't ignore this little icon when it lights up—it means it's time for maintenance. Like me, if you delay it to save trouble, you might end up with a noisier engine, as I did. Paying attention to these details will keep your car running smoother.
