At this point, the dashboard will display a maintenance reminder; press and hold the "OK" button on the left side of the steering wheel to enter the vehicle's main menu. The first option in the submenu is to restore factory settings, and the second is to reset the maintenance mileage; select the maintenance reset option. Simultaneously press the "Menu" button on the steering wheel and the "NIGHTVISION" button in the central control system. After holding for a few seconds, the gray option will turn white, and pressing the "OK" button will reset the maintenance light.
I've encountered the issue of resetting the Leopaard maintenance light multiple times during my usual car repairs. Generally, the method depends on the model year. For newer models like the Leopaard CS10, you can proceed as follows: First, turn the key to the ACC position without starting the engine; then locate the small button on the dashboard and press it for about 5-10 seconds. At this point, the maintenance light will either flash or turn off, indicating a successful reset. If this doesn't work, try pressing the button while stepping on the brake pedal or refer to the specific steps in the user manual. Resetting the maintenance light helps avoid false alarms and extends sensor lifespan. If you frequently ignore it, the vehicle's maintenance system will record fault codes, affecting the accuracy of other electronic components. It's advisable to address it promptly after each maintenance service. If you really can't manage it, visit a 4S dealership to have professional technicians reset it using diagnostic tools - it's usually free and reliable. Don't forget to check if there are any issues with the circuit connections to prevent repeated reset failures.
