I remember this was a common issue at the repair shop. Clearing the maintenance light on the JAC Refine S2 is actually quite simple. First, turn off the engine and make sure the car is stationary. Then, turn the key to the ON position to illuminate the dashboard. Next, locate the TRIP reset button on the right side of the steering wheel or on the instrument panel, press and hold it firmly—I've found that waiting about 7 seconds usually does the trick, and the little wrench light will go off on its own. Before releasing, make sure the indicator light has disappeared; don’t give up halfway. This light serves as a reminder that it’s time for maintenance, so don’t forget about it after clearing. Regularly changing the oil can extend the engine’s lifespan and save you from costly breakdowns on the road. If repeated attempts don’t work, there might be a system malfunction, and it’s best to take it to a 4S shop for a professional reset using specialized equipment—their tools are more accurate and reliable.

When I was modifying my car, I cleared the S2 maintenance light, and the method was super easy. After turning off the engine, turn the key to the second position (ON), and all the dashboard lights will illuminate. Focus on the area displaying the wrench icon, quickly press and hold the TRIP button for about 5-10 seconds, and it will turn off—my car got it done in one go. However, after resetting, don’t forget to note the mileage to avoid missing the next service interval. Degraded oil can cause significant engine damage, so skipping minor hassles isn’t worth it—stick to timely maintenance for a smoother ride. For new issues, you can check online for fellow car enthusiasts’ tips. Many DIY methods work, but ensure safety and avoid tampering with wiring randomly.

As a long-time owner, I've been driving the JAC Refine S2 for several years and have cleared the maintenance light a few times. The method is simple: with the car parked and the key turned to the ON position, locate the reset button and hold it for a few seconds until the light goes off. Take your time with the operation; slow and steady movements are more reliable. However, this doesn't mean you should skip maintenance. When the light comes on, it's time to change the oil and protect the engine promptly. Neglecting this could lead to costly engine damage. Safe driving is the top priority. If you have any doubts, it's best to consult a repair shop directly for reliable advice.

Often driving the kids to school, the maintenance light came on and gave me a scare. Clearing method: Turn the ignition key to the position where the dashboard lights up, hold down that button for about 6-8 seconds until the light goes off. Remember to reset the maintenance cycle and perform timely maintenance, ensuring the engine runs smoothly with less noise for a more worry-free drive. If problems persist, head to the 4S store for hassle-free service.

What is a Seat Belt Buckle?

A seat belt buckle is a device that can be inserted into a car's seat belt socket, preventing the seat belt warning alarm from sounding when the driver is not wearing the seat belt. These buckles come in a wide variety of designs, ranging from vehicle brand logos to cartoon characters, basketball or football team emblems. Additional information is as follows: Seat Belt: The seat belt is the sole safeguard for a driver's safety, serving as an active safety measure. It can be life-saving in critical moments. Even when a car is moving at a relatively slow speed, a collision or sudden braking can generate enough inertia to cause the driver and passengers to lose control of their bodies, potentially colliding with hard components like the steering wheel or windshield, resulting in injuries. Product Background: Relying solely on airbags is highly dangerous. During a severe collision, the inertia can propel the occupants forward, and the airbag's deployment involves a powerful impact. Without the cushioning effect of a seat belt, directly hitting the deploying airbag can be extremely hazardous or even fatal. Therefore, airbags must be used in conjunction with seat belts to provide effective protection.

What is the difference between maximum net power and maximum power?

Maximum power, also known as maximum output power, refers to the power output by the engine under full load conditions, equipped only with the essential accessories required for operation. In this state, the tested engine typically does not include attachments such as air filters (air conditioning) or cooling fans. Maximum net power, on the other hand, is the power actually used to propel the car during operation, excluding energy wasted and the portion used by the generator for electricity generation. Further explanation: Maximum net power is the effective power that drives the car after deducting wasted energy and the energy used by the generator for electricity production. In China, the power indicated for automotive engines is usually the rated power, which is the maximum output power. Rated power refers to the power output by the engine under full load conditions, equipped only with the essential accessories required for operation, typically excluding attachments like air filters (air conditioning) and cooling fans.
