Taking the 2019 upgraded 1.5L CVT Luxury version as an example, its dimensions are 4465mm in length, 1800mm in width, and 1535mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2668mm.

Last time I managed to reset the maintenance reminder on my Vision S1 quite easily, mainly by following these steps: First, turn the car key to the OFF position to shut off the engine, then locate the reset button marked with 0.0 at the bottom right of the instrument panel. Hold down the button firmly with your right hand, while simultaneously turning the key to the ON position with your left hand (without starting the engine). Hold for about seven or eight seconds until the maintenance wrench icon on the instrument panel disappears. Remember not to press the brake pedal during this process, as it might start the engine. If it doesn’t work the first time, it might be because the button wasn’t pressed firmly enough or the timing was off—just repeat the steps. It’s best to do this immediately after maintenance to ensure the next service mileage is calculated accurately. Note that there might be slight variations between different model years; for example, the 2018 model’s button requires a bit more force as it’s stiffer.
I found that the key to eliminating the maintenance reminder on the Geely Vision S1 lies in timing. Simply pressing the reset button on the dashboard after parking the car doesn’t work well. The correct procedure is to first turn off the engine to cut power to the entire vehicle. While holding down the reset button, turn the key to the ignition-on position—this is when the onboard computer starts its self-check. The crucial moment is when the dashboard backlight turns on; don’t release the button until the odometer jumps, indicating success. Older models might require holding the button a few seconds longer, while newer ones typically reset within 5 seconds. I’ve taught this trick to several fellow car owners, and it worked for them. Just remember not to perform this while the engine is running, as it may trigger fault codes. There’s also a lazy alternative: ask the technician at the 4S shop to reset it with a diagnostic tool during maintenance. But doing it yourself saves both time and hassle.
