Last time I helped a friend with their Great Wall VV7 on this issue, resetting the maintenance light was quite straightforward. Turn the car key to the ON position without starting the engine, and the dashboard will light up. Use the left or right buttons on the steering wheel to navigate—usually, a long press to the right enters the menu. Find the vehicle settings or maintenance option, where there's a button to reset the maintenance reminder. Click to confirm and hold for about 5 seconds until the light goes off. Don’t forget to do this right after maintenance to avoid false alerts. If the light comes on again later, it might indicate a need for new maintenance, so it’s recommended to check every 5,000 kilometers. This method works for most modern cars—quick to learn, safe, and reliable.

I've been driving my Great Wall VV7 for over three years now, and resetting the maintenance light is something I do regularly—it's simple and hassle-free. Turn the key to the ON position without starting the engine, then use the steering wheel buttons to navigate the dashboard menu. Usually, a few presses of the right button will bring up the maintenance settings, where you can select the reset option and hold it until the light disappears. Don’t attempt this while driving on the highway; it’s safer to do it when parked. This light serves as a reminder that your maintenance period is due—clearing it keeps your car running smoothly, so don’t delay resetting it after servicing. On a side note, regular maintenance can extend your engine’s lifespan, saving you fuel and headaches in the long run.

My VV7's maintenance light came on last time, so I promptly reset it. Turn the key to the ON position without starting the engine. Once the dashboard activates, use the steering wheel buttons to switch options. Navigate to the maintenance settings in the vehicle information menu, select 'Clear Reminder,' and confirm. Wait patiently for a few seconds, and the light will turn off. It's a simple one-minute fix—don't wait until the next startup to avoid distractions. After clearing the maintenance light, the car runs quieter, and regular upkeep helps reduce repair costs, killing two birds with one stone.

How often should the transmission be serviced?

Transmission should be serviced every 2 years or every 40,000 kilometers driven. Different vehicle models may have different requirements, so it's advisable to refer to the maintenance manual for appropriate automatic transmission service intervals. Transmissions are divided into manual and automatic types. Manual transmissions mainly consist of gears and shafts, achieving speed and torque variation through different gear combinations. Automatic transmissions are composed of a torque converter, planetary gears, hydraulic torque variation systems, and hydraulic control systems. The function of the transmission is to change the transmission ratio, expanding the range of torque and speed variation of the driving wheels to adapt to frequently changing driving conditions, while allowing the engine to operate under favorable working conditions.

What does vehicle fuel consumption mean?

Vehicle fuel consumption refers to the amount of fuel consumed per 100 kilometers driven at a certain speed, which is a theoretical indicator of the vehicle. The fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is a value measured by the manufacturer under objective conditions using a dynamometer installed on the vehicle chassis, converted into speed parameters, and then calculated as the theoretical experimental fuel consumption data for the vehicle model when driven at specified speeds. Fuel consumption includes constant-speed fuel consumption and road cycle fuel consumption. Constant-speed fuel consumption refers to the fuel economy indicator when the vehicle is driven at a constant speed on good road surfaces, while road cycle fuel consumption is the fuel economy indicator measured when the vehicle is driven on roads according to specified speed and time specifications in repeated cycles, also known as multi-condition road cycle fuel consumption.
