I often encounter the issue of resetting the maintenance light on my own Dongfeng Peugeot 301 after driving it for a long time. The general method is quite simple: first, turn the car key to the ACC position to light up the dashboard without starting the engine; then, locate the button labeled 'SET' on the steering wheel, hold it down for about 10 seconds, and the maintenance light will automatically turn off. Sometimes, depending on the model year, the button position may vary slightly, such as needing to press the OK button and the back button on the steering wheel simultaneously. Remember to check the vehicle menu settings for any specific options. I've tried it a few times myself, and it's quite reliable. The maintenance light mainly serves as a reminder for regular maintenance. Resetting it can prevent the warning from popping up frequently while driving, making you feel safer, but don’t forget to regularly check the engine oil and filters. For beginners, it's advisable to consult the manual more often to avoid misoperation. Anyway, this task isn’t complicated.

When I first started driving, the maintenance light confused me, but I later figured out how to handle it by searching online. The specific steps are: after turning off the engine, switch the key to ACC mode; then hold down the small round button on the steering wheel (usually the SET or MENU button) for about 5 to 10 seconds until the warning light on the dashboard turns off. If it doesn’t work, try other button combinations or check the user manual for detailed instructions. I think this is quite important because failing to reset it might mislead you into ignoring actual maintenance needs. Doing some basic maintenance regularly makes the car run more smoothly.

How Often Should the Coolant in a Manual Transmission Car Be Replaced?

Manual transmission cars require coolant replacement every 2 years or 40,000 kilometers. How to Replace Coolant: Before completely replacing the coolant, conduct a thorough inspection to check for any signs of leakage or cracks in the pipes, with a particular focus on the five-way water pipe. The coolant is distributed to different parts of the car through the five-way pipe to perform its function. If there is any leakage of coolant in this section, replace the water pipe or resecure the connection as needed. Drain the old coolant and then flush the liquid channels with clean water. Add clean water to the coolant reservoir and continue to fill it until water flows continuously through the engine cooling system. Then, start the engine and let it idle for 3 to 5 minutes to circulate the water. The water initially flowing out of the reservoir will have a faint pink tint. Continue adding clean water until the water coming out is clear. Note: Don’t forget to remove the heater hose and drain the water from the heater core. About an hour after draining, add the new coolant through the radiator hose. Then, pour another container of coolant into the coolant reservoir until it is nearly full. Start the engine and let it run for about 10 minutes. As the cooling system expels some air, the coolant level will drop. Add more coolant until it reaches the "MAXT" mark on the reservoir.

Are Anti-Static Straps Effective for Vehicles?

Anti-static straps are effective for vehicles. Here is relevant information about static electricity: 1. Working Principle: They use internal metal wires to conduct static electricity from the vehicle to a discharger, which then transfers it to the environment through the air or ground, eliminating static electricity in the vehicle. The ground-linked discharger, resembling a reverse radar, is fixed at the rear of the vehicle, with its end touching the ground to direct static electricity into the earth. 2. Causes of Static Electricity: Static electricity can be generated by friction between fibrous materials inside the vehicle, such as carpets, seats, and clothing, or by friction between airborne dust and the metal surfaces of the vehicle body during driving.
