Infiniti QX30 maintenance light reset method: 1. Press the INFO button on the car's center console; 2. In the next interface, click the maintenance information button; 3. Click engine oil to enter the setting interface; 4. Next, first press the minus sign to reduce the maintenance interval from 10,000 kilometers to 2km, then click to reset the driving distance, then press the plus sign to reset it to 10,000 kilometers; 5. Finally, exit the interface to complete the process. Infiniti is a luxury car brand under Nissan Motor Company, born in North America in 1989.

I was also troubled by the maintenance light on the Infiniti QX30 before, but later learned a simple method at the 4S shop. With the engine off, hold down the return button on the left side of the steering wheel without releasing it, then press the start button to power on the car without starting the engine. At this point, the dashboard will display a countdown. Wait for the countdown to finish before releasing the button, and it's done. This reset operation takes about 20 to 30 seconds, and after completing it, the maintenance reminder will disappear. When I tried it myself, I found that pressing the wrong button made the reset invalid, so it might take a few attempts. Actually, the maintenance reminder is a good thing—it reminds us when it's time to change the oil—but not being able to reset it is indeed annoying. After servicing the car, be sure to reset the reminder; otherwise, it will keep nagging you every day, which can be quite frustrating. By the way, there might be differences between different model years, so it's best to refer to the owner's manual for specifics.
Last time when I got my QX30 serviced, the technician taught me this reset trick: First, turn off the engine and cut all power to the car. Then, press and hold that small rod-shaped button at the lower right corner of the instrument panel without releasing it. Next, press the start button without stepping on the brake to power up the instrument panel. At this point, you'll see an English prompt pop up on the screen—keep holding until the detection screen appears. The whole process requires maintaining pressure for about half a minute, so don't let go prematurely. I remember the first time I tried this, it took me five minutes just to find that reset button—it's quite cleverly hidden. Now after each service, I casually reset it myself, which is much more convenient than making a special trip to the dealership. If you don't reset this light promptly, it will keep flashing, not only distracting you while driving but also potentially causing you to overlook when the next actual service is due.
