I've been driving my Citroen C4L for three or four years now, and I've tried the method to reset the maintenance light several times myself—it's quite convenient and quick. The basic steps are: first, sit in the driver's seat, turn the engine off completely, and turn the key to the OFF position; then press and hold the small mileage reset button on the dashboard, which is usually located near the speedometer; next, turn the key one notch to ACC without starting the engine, and the dashboard will light up; continue holding the button without releasing it for about 10 seconds, and the screen will start flashing numbers or display a countdown, like a little animation. When it stops and shows a steady '000' or resets, you can release the button, and the light will go off. The whole process takes less than half a minute, but you need a good memory and steady hands. Actually, the maintenance light is just a reminder for us to schedule regular maintenance, like changing the oil or checking the brakes. The light going off doesn’t mean you can skip maintenance—it’s best to follow the manual’s guidelines. Last time I got lazy and delayed it once, and I noticed the engine noise got louder—I regretted it immediately, so timely maintenance is crucial. Keeping this habit in daily driving can also extend the car’s lifespan.
