I've been driving for many years, and resetting the maintenance light on the Fengjun 5 is actually quite simple and doesn't require any tools. First, find a flat place to park and turn off the engine—don't leave it running. Then locate the ODO button on the dashboard, the one that shows the mileage, and hold it down without releasing. Next, slowly turn the key to the ACC position—remember, not to start the engine, just the half-power state. Wait for 5 to 10 seconds, and the maintenance light will either turn off by itself or flash a few times before disappearing. After completing the operation, it's best to restart the car to confirm the indicator light is indeed gone. The maintenance light comes on to remind you to change the oil or perform a check-up. Ignoring it for too long may lead to increased engine wear, higher fuel consumption, and other issues. I often do this myself to save a trip to the repair shop and extend the car's lifespan. It's recommended to reset it after each maintenance so it can start counting the next cycle anew.
