To reset the maintenance light on a 2017 Renault Kadjar, first turn on the vehicle's power, then use the right-hand stalk on the steering wheel to locate the maintenance cycle. Press and hold the OK button to enter the options for the mileage and time until the next service. Below is some relevant information about the Kadjar: Introduction: The Kadjar is a joint venture between French Renault and China's Dongfeng. Renault shares the same platform and technology with Nissan and Mercedes-Benz. Due to technical reasons, the Kadjar's engine used Nissan technology and was imported and assembled within the first six months. Renault Background: The Renault company is named after its founder, Louis Renault. The logo consists of four diamonds, symbolizing the integration of the three Renault brothers with the automotive industry, representing "Renault" competing, surviving, and developing in an infinite (four-dimensional) space. In 1898, the three Renault brothers founded the company in Boulogne-Billancourt. It is one of the oldest car companies in the world and one of the top ten automobile companies globally. During World War I, it produced firearms, ammunition, aircraft, and light tanks. After the war, it resumed traditional production activities, continuously exploring new fields and sectors, and strengthening ties with other industrial companies, becoming one of the largest industrial enterprises in France at the time.

I've been driving my Renault Kadjar for several years, and resetting the maintenance light is an essential skill. Don't worry, it's quite simple. First, turn off the engine and sit in the driver's seat with your eyes on the dashboard. There's usually a button for trip mode or mileage reset—hold it down without releasing. Then turn the key to the ON position, which is the position just before starting the engine where the electrical system is powered but the engine isn't running. I waited about 10 seconds until I saw the little wrench light start flashing and then go off. At that point, you can release the button and turn off the ignition. I always reset it right after each service to prevent the constant reminders from affecting my driving mood. The Kadjar's light reset is quick, and the design is quite user-friendly. Remember to change the oil regularly to protect the engine and extend the car's lifespan.

Back when I knew nothing about cars and just bought my first one, a friend taught me this trick—resetting the maintenance light is actually pretty fascinating. After turning off the engine, press and hold that small button on the dashboard firmly with your finger. Then, turn the key to the ACC position to power up the dashboard. Watch for the maintenance indicator light—it'll blink for a few seconds before disappearing. Release the button and turn off the ignition, and you're done. It's so simple even a beginner can master it instantly. I do this after every service to prevent the light from staying on and distracting me while driving. By the way, regular maintenance is crucial—it keeps the engine running efficiently, saves fuel, and gives you peace of mind.

As a hands-on person, I find resetting the maintenance light quite rewarding. First, turn off the engine, hold down the dashboard button, and turn the key to the ON position while waiting. In less than 10 seconds, the wrench light will flash and go off—then you can release the button. Remember, this must be done after the maintenance is completed; otherwise, it won’t work. Resetting it promptly helps maintain the accuracy of the car’s system and extends the lifespan of components. I do this often and find it very worthwhile.
