To reset the maintenance light on the Qashqai, follow these steps: 1. Start the engine. 2. Use the steering wheel switch buttons to navigate the instrument display to the maintenance settings. 3. Press and hold the "TRIP-RESET" button on the center console until the data refreshes and the maintenance light resets. Additional information about the Qashqai includes: 1. The Qashqai is equipped with a 2.0L engine, delivering a maximum power output of 144 horsepower and a peak torque of 198N·m. 2. The transmission system is paired with a CVT gearbox and features a two-wheel drive mode.
As a repair shop assistant, I often get Nissan Qashqai owners asking about resetting the maintenance light. The method is actually simple: First, sit in the driver's seat and turn the key to the ON position (dashboard lights on but engine not started). Then, use the buttons on the left side of the steering wheel to scroll through the dashboard menu, find the "Settings" or "设置" option, click into it, select "Maintenance" or "维护信息", and then look for "Reset Oil Life" or "保养复位" to confirm execution. The light will go out immediately. However, note that different model years of the Qashqai may vary; older models around 2010 might use directional keys, while newer models might require a diagnostic tool. It's best to check the manual to avoid mistakes. The maintenance light is designed to remind you of regular oil changes and maintenance, with an average check-up every 5,000 kilometers. If not reset, it keeps shining, and you might habitually ignore the actual maintenance timing, leading to increased engine wear and more expensive repairs over time. After resetting, it accurately starts counting down the next maintenance cycle from zero, and developing this habit is good for the car's durability.
