How to Reset the Trip Mileage on the Baojun 510?
3 Answers
To reset the trip mileage on the Baojun 510, insert the key into the ignition and turn it to the 'on' position, then press the button on the right side of the instrument panel. The Baojun 510 has the following dimensions: length 4220mm, width 1740mm, height 1615mm, with a wheelbase of 2550mm and a fuel tank capacity of 45 liters. It is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum power of 73 kilowatts and a maximum torque of 135 Newton meters, paired with a 6-speed manual transmission. The front suspension is a MacPherson strut independent suspension, and the rear suspension is a torsion beam non-independent suspension.
I've driven quite a few cars, and resetting the trip meter on the Baojun 510 is actually quite simple. First, you need to start the vehicle to illuminate the dashboard, but don't start the engine—just turn the key to the ACC position. Then locate the TRIP button on the right side of the steering wheel, which is the small button used to toggle the odometer. Press and hold it for about three to five seconds, and you'll see the trip meter reset to zero. This feature helps you track single-trip distances, such as resetting after refueling to monitor fuel consumption changes. Never operate it while driving; always do it when parked—safety first. Sometimes the button might stick or respond slowly, so check for poor contact or ensure the car is in P mode before trying again. I usually reset it periodically to track the vehicle's condition more easily. If you can't figure it out, it's best to refer to the car's manual for detailed illustrations.
As an experienced driver of this car, I remember one time I noticed the trip mileage was unusually high and decided to reset it myself. The key is to have the car in the ignition-on state—turn the key to light up the dashboard, then locate the TRIP button. Hold it down for a few seconds without releasing, and the value will reset to zero. It’s not difficult, but be careful not to do it while the car is moving to avoid distractions and accidents. The trip mileage is used to calculate short-term distances, like daily commutes, while the odometer tracks the total mileage—don’t mix them up. If the reset fails, check if the button is dirty or worn, or visit the 4S shop for a free inspection. I think the button design is quite user-friendly; even beginners can get the hang of it after a few tries. Regularly checking dashboard functions during maintenance can help avoid issues.
