How to reset the trip mileage?
2 Answers
After turning on the power, briefly press the TRIP button once (located on the left side of the steering wheel). Activate the steering wheel, and the instrument panel will display "Steering wheel buttons activated." After activating the steering wheel buttons, briefly press the TRIP button to switch to the TRIP1 interface. Press and hold the TRIP button on the left side of the combination switch to reset the trip mileage.
I've driven quite a few cars, and generally resetting the trip odometer is pretty straightforward. After getting in and starting the engine, look at the instrument panel – there's definitely a button or knob labeled TRIP. Press and hold it without letting go for about three to five seconds, and you'll see the mileage numbers reset to zero instantly. This feature is super practical; I use it to track the distance of individual trips and calculate fuel consumption. On some models, the button is on the steering wheel, which is even more convenient. Just remember to do this when the car is stationary – don't try it while driving, as it's dangerous! Also, be careful not to confuse it with the total mileage; resetting that would devalue the car. I usually reset it once before each maintenance to compare data easily. Honestly, it just takes a bit of practice – it's not rocket science.
