Turn on the ignition switch to power the car while keeping the engine off. Press the "Reset" button once, and the display will show the reset system. Select the maintenance reset system and hold the "Reset" button for about 3 seconds.
I've driven the Haval Big Dog a few times, and when the maintenance light comes on, it usually reminds you that it's time for service. The method to reset it is quite simple: first, turn off the ignition switch, press the start button without stepping on the brake to make the dashboard display completely black, then locate a small hole button at the bottom right of the dashboard, press and hold it with a key or a thin stick for about 5 seconds, and release when you see the light go off. Be patient during this process and don't rush. The maintenance light is part of the smart system, designed to remind you to change the oil or inspect parts. If it doesn't reset, it will keep flashing and distract you while driving. I recommend performing this operation immediately after each service to avoid distractions during daily driving. Regular car maintenance is key. For example, I check my car's condition once a month, which can prevent major issues like engine overheating due to oil leaks and extend the vehicle's lifespan. Doing this small operation yourself saves time, but if the car is under warranty, it's safer to have it done at a 4S shop.
Hey, I'm a Haval Big Dog owner. Don't panic when the maintenance light comes on—I solved it the same way last time. Right after turning off the engine, hold down that little black dot button on the dashboard (feels like a trap button) for about 4-5 seconds, and the light magically disappears. This thing is the car's friendly reminder, nudging you not to skip maintenance—kind of like a phone notification. If you delay resetting it, the light keeps blinking annoyingly while driving and might even mislead you into ignoring real issues. Personally, I think this system is pretty smart, and Haval pays great attention to details. I usually keep an eye on my car's condition—listening to the engine sound, checking fluids—developing good habits to keep the car from acting up. The reset takes just seconds, saving hassle and ensuring safety while helping you stay focused on driving.
