Turn on the ignition switch, hold down the "reset button" with one hand, and turn off the ignition switch with the other hand; Keep holding the "reset button" until the clock and trip mileage on the dashboard completely disappear, then release the button. Press the "reset button" again with one hand and turn on the ignition switch. At this point, the maintenance reminder on the dashboard will flash, continue holding the "reset button". Turn on the ignition switch or start the vehicle again to check if the reset was successful. The maintenance light indicates insufficient engine oil in the vehicle.
When I previously drove the Zotye SR9, the maintenance light reset procedure was quite simple. First, sit in the driver's seat and turn the key to the ON position without starting the engine. Then press and hold the small button on the right side of the instrument panel for about five seconds until the wrench icon starts flashing on the dashboard screen. Continue holding the button for another ten seconds until the icon disappears. Release the button and turn the key back to the OFF position to complete the process. This operation essentially resets the maintenance reminder in the vehicle's computer and can be done yourself without visiting the dealership. However, it's crucial to begin the procedure with the power off and preferably in a safe parking environment to avoid distractions affecting safety. Resetting after each maintenance service helps accurately track the next service mileage interval, which is very beneficial for engine protection.
