How to reset the maintenance light on CS10?

Do not start the engine; Press and hold the top button on the left side of the combination switch (headlight). The instrument panel will display a menu, twist up and down to navigate to other settings. Hold the wrench button with your left hand, then turn on the ignition switch with your right hand. Release the wrench button with your left hand, and press the minute button of the time adjustment button. Hold the time button with your left hand. Turn on the new ignition switch or start the engine, and the maintenance reminder will disappear. Press and hold the top buttons on both the left (headlight) and right (wiper) sides of the combination switch simultaneously for 3 to 5 seconds to reset. Restart the vehicle, and the maintenance light will be reset to zero.
I previously drove the CS10 model, and when the maintenance light came on, I had to manually reset it, which was quite simple to do myself. After turning off the engine, hold down the small button on the left side of the dashboard, keep it pressed, then turn the key to the ON position without starting the engine. Wait a few seconds until you see the light blink or go off. Remember to perform this operation only after completing the maintenance; otherwise, the system will keep giving incorrect reminders. I recommend checking the owner's manual in advance, as it has illustrated steps, or searching for online video tutorials. I've tried it several times myself and succeeded on the first attempt, saving the hassle of visiting a repair shop. If the button doesn't respond, you might have acted too quickly—just be patient and try again.
The CS10's maintenance light is based on the vehicle's computer timer settings, and resetting it actually involves clearing stored data. With the engine off, press and hold the reset button on the instrument panel while turning the ignition to the ON position. Wait until the indicator light goes off or a prompt sound is heard, indicating completion. If unsure about the exact button location, refer to the manual for markings or check official forum user shares. Why this design? It serves as a reminder for regular maintenance, as neglect may conceal potential mechanical issues. For safety, ensure maintenance is performed before resetting to avoid compromising driving safety due to incorrect resetting.
It's best not to tamper with the maintenance light unless you know the procedure. For the CS10, the reset steps usually involve holding a specific button after turning off the engine, then turning on the ignition to try. If unsure, consult a 4S shop or professional technician directly—they can handle it quickly. After resetting, check if the light is truly off, just in case. This avoids accidentally triggering system faults. Regular maintenance can reduce how often the light comes on, saving hassle and extending your car's lifespan.
