How to reset the maintenance reminder for the Soueast DX7?
4 Answers
Press and hold the 0.0 button at the bottom right corner with your left hand. The LCD display will show the maintenance reminder warning message, accompanied by a buzzer alert during the reminder. With your right hand, turn the ignition key to the "ON" position (do not start the engine, and keep holding the button with your left hand). The displayed distance is in kilometers (km), and the displayed time is in days. At this point, a non-flashing wrench symbol will appear on the instrument panel; release the left hand; then press the button at the bottom left corner once. The disappearance of the wrench symbol indicates that the reset is complete. After a successful reset, the system will display the time and mileage for the next scheduled inspection.
I previously drove a Soueast DX7, and resetting the maintenance reminder is actually not difficult to operate. You sit in the car, turn the key to the ON position, but don't start the engine. The dashboard usually displays some icons, look for a button near the steering wheel or on the left side of the dashboard, called the reset or settings button. Press it to enter the menu, use the up and down keys to scroll to the 'Maintenance Settings' or 'Service Reminder' option, then hold the confirm button for about five seconds until the reminder disappears. Be patient throughout the process to avoid incorrect operations that might cause system errors. It's recommended to confirm that the car has just undergone maintenance before resetting, as the reminder light is there to prompt timely maintenance, such as oil and filter changes. The Soueast DX7 generally recommends maintenance every 5,000 kilometers. Ignoring the reminder might lead to issues, but resetting it can prevent the indicator light from constantly being on and interfering with your view. Safety first, it's best to check whether the settings have taken effect before driving.
As an owner of a Soueast DX7, I've cleared the maintenance reminder several times. After getting in the car, first turn the key to the ON position without starting the engine. There might be buttons or menu keys on the dashboard - try pressing them a few times to see where you can access the settings. Look for the reset option under maintenance items, then long-press the confirmation button. That's how I did it last time, and it worked quickly. If you're unsure, remember to check the owner's manual or ask the 4S shop technician - they can help you find the exact method. This reminder exists to prompt regular maintenance; as the car ages, engine oil and other fluids get dirty, and failing to change them promptly can lead to cylinder scoring. After clearing it, driving feels much cleaner, but don't just focus on clearing the reminder while neglecting actual maintenance - safety is more important than convenience.
To clear the maintenance reminder on the Soueast DX7, I figured it out while playing around with the car. Turn the key to the ON position without starting the engine, then press the buttons on the dashboard to enter the menu. Find the maintenance setting option, usually labeled prominently, and hold it for a few seconds to confirm the reset. Done! Easy, right? Don't delay this too long; driving with the reminder light on can be distracting. Take the opportunity to check your car's condition, such as tire pressure or fluid levels, to maintain good habits. Keep up with the maintenance schedule to prevent small issues from becoming big problems.
