How to reset the maintenance reminder on a Haval?
2 Answers
The method to reset the maintenance reminder on a Haval: 1. Turn off the ignition switch, press and hold the trip meter reset button on the instrument cluster; 2. Turn on the ignition switch, the odometer display will start counting down; 3. When the display shows 0000.0, release the button, and the maintenance reminder light on the display will turn off. Haval is a sub-brand of Great Wall Motors, which includes three vehicle series: H, M, and F. Taking the Haval F7 as an example, it is the second model in the F series under Haval. In terms of body dimensions, its length, width, and height are 4620mm, 1846mm, and 1690mm respectively, with a wheelbase of 2725mm.
I've driven a Haval H6 for several years and always found the maintenance reminder annoying when it pops up. Actually, clearing it is quite simple. Usually, you just need to turn the ignition to the accessory position (without starting the engine), then press and hold the selection button on the instrument cluster. This will bring up the menu options where you can find the maintenance reset function and confirm. For some newer models, you might need to use the steering wheel buttons, like holding the OK button for about 10 seconds until the warning light goes off. Remember, this reminder is just prompting you to perform maintenance tasks like oil or filter changes – it's more reliable to reset it after actual service. I've encountered cases where the prompt remained after resetting, which was due to power supply issues from the battery. Try disconnecting the negative terminal for a few minutes then retry. Overall, don't lazily ignore it – a constantly lit warning affects driving mood, plus regular maintenance keeps the engine healthy and extends vehicle lifespan. Haval cars are generally easy to maintain, and spending a little time handling these details can prevent bigger troubles.
