Method to reset the maintenance light on the Buick Verano: When the engine is off, turn the ignition switch to the power mode position. Use the right-hand multifunction steering wheel buttons to navigate to the remaining oil life menu interface. Press and hold the OK confirmation button for several seconds to reset the oil life to 100%. Turn off the ignition switch to complete the reset. The Buick Verano's body dimensions are 4718mm in length, 1802mm in width, and 1466mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2700mm. Both the hatchback and sedan versions of the Buick Verano are equipped with either a 1.5L or 1.5T four-cylinder engine.
As a car enthusiast who enjoys tinkering with my own vehicle, I often take my Buick Verano out for trips. I'm quite familiar with minor maintenance tasks like resetting the service light. First, switch the car to ACC mode without starting the engine. Then use the menu button on the left side of the steering wheel to navigate to the vehicle information section, locate the maintenance reset option, and hold the confirm button for a few seconds until the light turns off. The menu positions might vary slightly between different model years - for example, the 2016 and 2020 versions have different setup paths - but the core procedure remains similar. I recommend resetting it immediately after each oil change or maintenance service, otherwise the system might assume you skipped maintenance, potentially causing engine damage. Always pay attention to oil change intervals and brake inspections to prevent premature warning lights.
I've dealt with cars a lot, and clearing the maintenance light on the Buick Verano is quite simple, plus it can extend the car's lifespan. First, keep the car in the ON position but don't start the engine. There's a small control panel on the right side of the steering wheel—press the menu button to navigate to the settings section, select maintenance information, and then click reset. In case of accidental operation or forgetting the steps, if the dashboard shows an error message, don't panic; just check the owner's manual or visit a 4S store for a free reset. Before clearing, make sure the maintenance has been completed, such as changing the oil and filters, otherwise the light will come on sooner next time. Developing a habit of regular maintenance saves trouble, like checking tire pressure and fluid levels to prevent small issues from becoming big problems.
