DIY maintenance reminder reset is actually quite simple. I encountered this before with my 2019 Haval H6. First, turn the key to power on (but don't start the engine), then watch the dashboard while holding down the button with the square symbol on the right side of the steering wheel. After about 4-5 seconds, the setup menu will pop up. Use the steering wheel toggle buttons to find the 'Maintenance Reset' option, enter to confirm reset, then turn off the power and restart the engine. Just a reminder - when I first tried this, I forgot to disconnect the car's Bluetooth and the screen froze once, so it's best to turn off all electronic devices before operating. If you really can't manage it, just drive to the 4S shop where they can finish it in three minutes with a diagnostic tool, but doing it yourself does save time.
My 2019 H6's maintenance reminder light came on last year. Remember there are four steps to reset it: turn the key to ON position without starting, find the TRIP button on the right side of the steering wheel and hold for 5 seconds, select Vehicle Settings → Maintenance Info → Reset Mileage after the menu pops up. Here's the key - make sure to exit the menu before turning off the power. Once I turned the key off too quickly and had to redo everything. Also, confirm the mileage before resetting - changing the shop's 5,000km reminder to 8,000km could cause issues since this turbocharged engine shouldn't delay maintenance. Finally, check the multifunction steering wheel buttons - some owners couldn't access the menu due to faulty button contacts.
The technician taught me how to operate it during the last maintenance. Make sure the car is powered on but the engine is not running. Press the bottom toggle button on the right side of the steering wheel until the settings menu appears on the dashboard. Find the reset option in the maintenance information section and press the confirm button. The key is to hold the confirm button for more than three seconds until the prompt disappears. This trick works especially well for high-end models with leather steering wheels and cruise control, while the button layout is different for base models with plastic steering wheels. After resetting, remember to drive about 200 kilometers to observe. Once, the prompt reappeared after just two kilometers post-reset, and it turned out to be a wiring mistake from a previous center console screen modification. By the way, remember to return the wiper lever to its original position before powering off.
