Turn off the ignition switch. Simultaneously press and hold the two arrow buttons, then turn on the ignition switch. After approximately 3 seconds, release the two arrow buttons. The maintenance menu will appear, asking if you want to reset. Press and hold the SET button for more than 3 seconds. Press the MODE button. Turn off the ignition switch to complete the reset. Below are related introductions: 1. After each maintenance, you can ask the staff to help reset it. Staff usually use a computer to access the vehicle system settings to reset the maintenance light. 2. You can also refer to the vehicle user manual, which provides detailed instructions. 3. As driving time increases, the wear and tear of internal vehicle components gradually becomes more severe. To ensure normal vehicle operation, manufacturers have set up reminder indicators. After reaching a certain mileage, the vehicle will display a wrench-shaped maintenance light to remind the owner to perform maintenance.

I usually maintain my Emgrand GL by myself, and turning off the maintenance light is quite simple: first, turn the key to the OFF position to ensure the engine has completely stopped; then press and hold the small reset button on the dashboard; next, turn the key to the ON position without starting the engine; wait patiently for 5-10 seconds, and release the button immediately when you see the maintenance light go off. Some newer models might require using the settings buttons on the steering wheel, such as pressing the left or right buttons a few times to enter the menu and select the reset option. The purpose of this light is to remind you to perform regular maintenance—don’t just turn it off and neglect the upkeep. Timely oil changes and filter replacements will keep your car running smoothly and safely. If the light remains on, it might be due to a system bug or incorrect maintenance interval settings, which can be adjusted in just a few minutes at a professional shop. Safe driving relies on careful maintenance, and developing good habits brings endless benefits.

As a hands-on Emgrand GL owner, I remember the method to reset the maintenance light: Keep the key in the ignition after turning off the engine; Hold down the trip reset button on the dashboard with one hand; Turn the key to the ACC position with the other hand; Hold for about seven or eight seconds until the light flashes and goes off, then release. Procedures may vary for different models, so it's advisable to check the owner's manual or follow online video tutorials step by step. The light isn't just a reminder for routine maintenance—it also warns against overlooking details, like prolonged neglect accelerating engine wear. If the light reappears after resetting, it could indicate a wiring short or instrument cluster fault. Have a technician diagnose it early with proper tools for peace of mind and safety. Knowing basic operations can save drivers a lot of hassle.

I just bought an Emgrand GL not long ago, and resetting the maintenance light is actually not difficult: turn off the engine without starting it, turn the key to the ON position; find a reset button near the dashboard and hold it down; wait a few seconds and the light will automatically turn off. If you can't find the button or the operation is invalid, just check the manual or ask a fellow car owner for help. Usually, when it's time for maintenance, go on time, don't wait until the light comes on to panic. Simple operation ensures safety.
