Steps to reset the trip in a car: 1. First, press the one-touch start button in front of the vehicle's gear lever to power on the vehicle. 2. Then locate the 00/SET button on the right side of the vehicle's dashboard, press and hold this button until you hear a beep, then release it. 3. Next, click the SET button on the left side of the multifunction steering wheel. 4. Finally, click the OK button on the right side of the multifunction steering wheel. At this point, the vehicle's trip mileage will be reset. 5. The owner can briefly press the reset/adjustment button (set) at the lower right corner of the dashboard to switch between the two trip display modes. In the single-trip mileage display mode, hold the reset/adjustment button (set) for more than two seconds to reset the single-trip mileage (small trip) display value to zero.
Resetting a car's Trip odometer is actually quite simple. Having driven several models, I've found the basic procedure is similar: While parked, locate the 'Trip' button (or similar label) near the instrument cluster, then press and hold it for a few seconds until the numbers reset to zero. This feature is extremely practical - I frequently use it to record travel distances or calculate actual fuel consumption, helping manage trip budgets. There are slight variations between models: economy cars typically have direct button operation, while some SUVs or newer vehicles require accessing the menu via steering wheel controls to select reset. Don't worry, just consult the owner's manual or follow the infotainment prompts. Safety first - always perform this operation in a safe parking spot to avoid distracted driving accidents. During routine maintenance, it's good practice to check the Trip function to ensure accuracy.
