How to reset the maintenance light on Emgrand GL?

Emgrand GL maintenance light reset method: Hold down the small trip reset button, insert the car key and turn it until the dashboard lights up, then release the button, and the maintenance light will go off; In idle state, hold down the mileage button for 2 to 3 seconds, the maintenance reminder will turn off, and the maintenance light reset is completed. Not resetting the maintenance light will not cause harm to the vehicle, but it will affect the next maintenance cycle. It is best to reset it after each maintenance. The dimensions of the Emgrand GL are 4725 mm in length, 1802 mm in width, and 1478 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2700 mm. The Emgrand GL adopts the currently very popular fastback lines and short tail design, making it visually more dynamic. The integrated dazzling LED light guide taillights not only enhance the premium texture of the rear but also form smooth lines with the license plate frame, resembling an eagle spreading its wings, echoing the dynamic upturned rear spoiler, enriching the rear's layers and creating a fuller visual effect.
As a veteran owner of a 10-year-old Emgrand GL, I always reset the maintenance light myself after each service. The method is simple: First, turn off the engine, then sit in the driver's seat and turn the key to the ON position without starting the engine. Next, look for a small button on the instrument panel—likely the trip reset button—and hold it down. Keep pressing it for about 5 to 10 seconds, and the maintenance light will blink and then turn off. After releasing the button, it should return to normal. Resetting it yourself saves money and hassle while avoiding unnecessary trips to the shop. Remember, the maintenance light is a reminder to change the oil and perform inspections regularly. If you don't reset it, it will keep flashing, which can be distracting and unsafe while driving. I recommend resetting it immediately after each service to keep the car running smoothly and extend the engine's lifespan. Additionally, checking the lights before a cold start in winter is a good habit.
