The method to reset the vehicle condition check on the Sagitar: First, turn on the hazard warning lights, then press the button on the right side of the odometer, and finally press the OK button on the multifunction steering wheel. The Sagitar is a compact car under the Volkswagen brand, with body dimensions of 4544mm in length, 1760mm in width, and 1461mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2578mm. In terms of power, the Sagitar is equipped with two engines: a 1.2-liter turbocharged engine and a 1.4-liter turbocharged engine. The 1.2-liter turbocharged engine delivers 116 horsepower and a maximum torque of 175 Nm, while the 1.4-liter turbocharged engine produces 150 horsepower and a maximum torque of 250 Nm.

Last time I encountered the vehicle condition check prompt on my Sagitar, I managed to handle it directly on the dashboard. First, don't start the engine, just turn on the power to illuminate the dashboard. Then press and hold the 0.0 button at the lower right corner of the dashboard for about five seconds until the maintenance menu pops up. Release the button and press it once more, and the screen will begin the countdown reset. The whole process takes less than thirty seconds. After resetting, the prompt won't appear the next time you start the car. However, if you've just had maintenance but the reset wasn't successful, you might need a technician to reset the module using a diagnostic computer.

As an experienced driver who often helps friends with car issues, I find clearing this alert quite straightforward. In most cases, simply use the multifunction buttons on the left side of the steering wheel to bring up the menu, locate the 'Maintenance' option under 'Settings', and select reset directly. However, note two points: first, ensure the key is turned to the ignition-on position without starting the engine; second, menu hierarchies may vary across different model years of the Sagitar. If the dashboard displays a firm warning like 'Service Now', it's advisable to visit an authorized dealership first to check for trouble codes rather than force-resetting and potentially delaying proper vehicle condition inspection.

That day my friend called saying his Sagitar displayed a yellow wrench icon, so I suggested he try the manual reset method: First turn the key to the position where all dashboard lights illuminate, then immediately press and hold the small button below the speedometer. Wait until the English menu pops up on the screen (may need to hold for about 10 seconds), switch to Chinese interface and select 'Reset Maintenance Cycle'. The key is to perform this operation within three days after the warning appears, otherwise the system might get locked. After resetting, it's best to drive a few kilometers to confirm the warning doesn't reappear. If it still shows up, then check if the ABS module is falsely reporting a fault.
