As an owner of a 2017 Haval H6, I often encounter the maintenance light coming on. The reset procedure is actually quite simple: First, park the car on level ground and turn off the engine, but don't start it immediately. Turn the key to the ON position to illuminate the dashboard. Then, look for the buttons on the right side of the steering wheel, press the menu button to enter the settings options, scroll to find "Maintenance Reset" or similar wording, click into it, and press the confirm button. Wait a few seconds, and the light will disappear. Note that this must be done after actual maintenance is completed, such as after changing the oil or oil filter. Otherwise, the light serves as a reminder that your car needs maintenance, and forcibly resetting it may cause you to overlook the issue. I've tried it before—if you accidentally reset it incorrectly, just repeat the process; it won't damage the car. I recommend resetting it promptly after each maintenance to keep your car's records accurate.

I've driven a 2017 Haval H6 and would like to share my experience on manually resetting the maintenance light: After turning off the engine, switch the key to ACC or ON position without starting the engine. Use the steering wheel buttons to navigate to the instrument menu and locate the maintenance reset option. Typically, you need to press and hold the OK button for 5-10 seconds to complete the reset. I found this method generally works for the 2017 model, though there might be slight variations between different production batches, so it's best to check the manual first. After resetting, the maintenance interval will be reset as well, so make sure the maintenance is completed before doing this to avoid false alerts leading to part wear. If the steps don't go smoothly, search for tutorial videos online—it's quick, free, and saves you the hassle of visiting the dealership.

I've owned my Haval H6 for several years, and I learned how to reset the maintenance light from the manual: turn off the car, turn the key to ON but don't start the engine; use the steering wheel buttons to enter the settings menu, find the maintenance reset and confirm it. Make sure the maintenance is completed before doing this, so the light stops flashing and you can drive with peace of mind. The light is a reminder not to be lazy, forcing a reset could mask real issues, so don't delay this simple procedure.

After each maintenance, I reset the 17 Haval H6's service light: turn off the car, turn the key to the ON position; use the steering wheel buttons to select settings, find the maintenance reset option and confirm the reset. But remember, you must complete the maintenance tasks like oil changes before doing this, otherwise, the risk increases if the light disappears. As a family user, I regularly check maintenance records. After resetting the light, I drive with peace of mind knowing the car is healthy. If in doubt, consult a professional mechanic.

What are the octane ratings of 92 and 95 gasoline?

92 gasoline contains 92% isooctane and 8% n-heptane, while 95 gasoline contains 95% isooctane and 5% n-heptane. Relevant information about gasoline grades is as follows: 1. The gasoline grade represents the fuel's anti-knock performance. The higher the grade, the better the anti-knock performance. It is worth noting that the gasoline grade has little to do with the quality of the gasoline itself. A higher grade does not mean the gasoline is better, nor does it indicate fewer impurities or higher purity. 2. Anti-knock performance refers to the ability of gasoline to resist knocking when burning in the engine. It is the primary indicator of gasoline's combustion performance. Knocking is caused by abnormal combustion of gasoline in the engine. The octane rating is the measure of gasoline's anti-knock performance; the higher the octane rating, the stronger the anti-knock performance.

What Does the Coolant Warning Light Look Like?

The coolant warning light appears as a flashing alert light. Introduction to Coolant: The full name of coolant should be antifreeze coolant, meaning it is a cooling liquid with antifreeze functionality. Coolant prevents the freezing of the liquid during cold winter stops, which could otherwise cause the radiator to crack or damage the engine cylinder block or cylinder head. Functions of Coolant: It provides anti-corrosion protection for components of the cooling system; prevents scale formation, avoiding a reduction in the radiator's cooling efficiency; ensures the engine operates within the normal temperature range. Coolant Replacement Cycle: Coolant is typically replaced every two years or 40,000 kilometers. However, this is not an absolute rule. The actual condition should be assessed to determine the need for replacement, as it may remain functional for several tens of thousands of kilometers or over a year or two without major issues. Additionally, it is important to note that different types of antifreeze should not be mixed.

Does the Vehicle License Contain the VIN?

The vehicle license does contain the VIN (Vehicle Identification Number), which is a 17-character alphanumeric code serving as the car's unique identifier. This code can also be found in the engine compartment. Below is more information about the VIN: 1. The VIN, or Vehicle Identification Code, is a 17-digit alphanumeric combination that ensures no two vehicles of the same model are identical within 30 years, functioning as the car's unique ID, much like a human's ID card. 2. The last six digits of the VIN can be used to query detailed vehicle information. 3. The 17-character VIN is typically divided into six sections: Characters 1-3 represent the manufacturer, brand, and type; Characters 4-8 (or 4-9 in European standards) indicate vehicle characteristics. China follows the U.S. standard, using positions 4-8 for these features.

Can the negative terminal of a car be arbitrarily grounded?

Car negative terminal cannot be arbitrarily grounded. Function of grounding wire: It uses the iron parts of the car to conduct electricity, thereby saving a wire. Grounding means connecting one of the DC electrodes (positive or negative) to the iron body of the car, while the other electrode forms a circuit through the wiring and electrical equipment. This is the function of grounding. Grounding fault: Grounding fault is a term in circuit troubleshooting, commonly seen in the automotive repair industry. A grounding fault refers to the phenomenon in the electrical equipment circuit of a car where a non-grounded wire (or terminal) directly contacts the car frame, causing the power source to form a short circuit between positive and negative poles at this point. A minor grounding fault can cause car leakage, resulting in battery depletion, while a severe grounding fault can damage the power source (including the battery and generator), burn out the wiring, or even cause a fire.

Is There Any Harm in Putting Grapefruit Peel in the Car?

Putting grapefruit peel in the car is not harmful. Open the car windows more for ventilation: Before driving, choose a sunny day, open all the car doors, and let them air out for 2-3 hours while ventilating. Clean the interior and organize the items inside to keep it tidy and neat. Use charcoal or bamboo charcoal to remove odors: Activated carbon has rich capillaries and strong adsorption properties. When toxic gases come into contact with activated carbon, they are adsorbed onto the capillaries, purifying the air. It doesn’t take up much space and is harmless, providing clean air in the car for a long time. Regularly clean the air conditioner: Due to seasonal changes and environmental factors, air conditioners can easily breed bacteria and viruses. If not cleaned regularly and the air filter is not replaced in time, they may release toxic or germ-laden gases. Inhaling these can lead to illnesses. Car air purifiers: Currently, technologies mainly include plasma, negative ions, negative oxygen ions, and adsorption. The higher the clean air delivery rate, the more efficient the purifier is.
