To reset the maintenance light on a Zotye T700, follow these steps: 1. Turn off the ignition switch; 2. Press and hold both buttons on the instrument panel; 3. Turn the key to the position where all dashboard lights illuminate; 4. Wait until the wrench indicator light turns off, then release the two buttons (including the mileage reset button); 5. Turn off the ignition switch and restart the vehicle to complete the maintenance light reset. Taking the 2018 Zotye T700 DCT Custom Edition as an example, it belongs to the mid-size SUV category with dimensions: length 4748mm, width 1933mm, height 1697mm, wheelbase 2850mm, and minimum ground clearance of 165mm.
As someone who drives frequently, I've dealt with the Zotye T700 maintenance light coming on multiple times. The general method is to first turn off the engine completely, then press the start button twice without stepping on the brake to put the car in ACC mode (dashboard lights up but engine doesn't start). At this point, locate the TRIP button or similar reset button near the steering wheel, press and hold it for about 5-10 seconds while watching for the wrench icon or text to disappear - that means the light is off. The process is simple but note that if the lighting is too dim, the button might not respond and you'll need to repeat the operation. The maintenance light serves as a good reminder for regular upkeep like oil changes every 5,000 km - otherwise engine carbon buildup increases along with fuel consumption. Resetting it yourself is convenient and helps develop good maintenance habits, making the car run smoother and safer while preventing breakdowns on the road.
