3 Answers
The method to reset the maintenance light on a Zotye vehicle is: 1. Start the car; 2. Adjust the ignition switch to the ACC or ON position; 3. Press and hold the button on the left side of the dashboard until the maintenance icon appears. Taking the 2019 Zotye T600 as an example, it is a mid-size SUV with body dimensions of: length 4676mm, width 1893mm, height 1696mm, wheelbase 2807mm, fuel tank capacity 60L, and curb weight 1541kg. The 2019 Zotye T600 features a front MacPherson independent suspension and a rear multi-link independent suspension. It is equipped with a 1.5L turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 143PS, maximum power of 105kW, maximum torque of 207Nm, and is paired with a 5-speed manual transmission.
As a car enthusiast who often tinkers with vehicles, I handle the Zotye maintenance light myself. The method is to turn the key to the ACC position without starting the engine, locate the mileage reset button in the center of the dashboard, press and hold it firmly for about 7-10 seconds until the light goes off, then release. This trick works well on the Zotye T600 and SR9. DIY saves a half-day trip to the dealership and allows checking fluid levels. Remember not to exceed the maintenance interval—changing oil and filters every 5,000 km significantly reduces engine wear for smoother operation. Beginners should consult the owner's manual first, and if unsure, take photos to document the process for next time. Overall, diligent maintenance extends vehicle lifespan and saves money.
When I first started driving, I was also troubled by the maintenance light. I searched online and learned a trick: insert the key and turn it to the ON position without starting the engine, then find the small button near the steering wheel, hold it down until the light flashes a few times to reset. Be gentle during the operation to avoid accidentally pressing other settings. As a learning car owner, I believe safety is the most important; if unsure, go to a 4S shop or professional repair point. By the way, regular maintenance can check tire pressure and brake pads, preventing sudden problems on the road. This method saved me some minor troubles, making my daily driving more reassuring. A car is like a partner; good habits keep it running long.
