How to set the 10,000 km maintenance reminder for Lavida Plus?

To set the maintenance reminder for mileage and time, a specialized computer is required for modification. If you want to reset it, a specialized computer can also be used for resetting. For self-operation, generally press the 0.0 button, then power on, and select confirm. Turn off the ignition switch (turn off the engine), and hold down the "0.0" button on the dashboard. Turn on the ignition switch, while keeping the "0.0" button pressed with your left hand. When a certain message appears on the dashboard display, release the "0.0" button.
I've had this Lavida Plus for two years now, and I always set the maintenance reminders myself. First, you need to turn off the engine and park. Then press and hold the reset button at the bottom right of the instrument panel—that little dot. Next, step on the brake and press the start button to power on, but don't start the engine. At this point, the service menu will pop up on the dashboard—keep holding the button. After about ten seconds, when you see the maintenance reminder flashing, you can let go. Finally, quickly press the reset button twice to reset it to 10,000 km. I've tried it twice myself, and it worked both times—the key is to do it right when the reminder light comes on. Normally, the onboard computer calculates based on the oil condition, but setting it manually is more convenient. The maintenance cycle really depends on driving conditions—if you do a lot of city driving, you might want to shorten it a bit.
Last time during maintenance, I overheard the technician talking about this setting. The Lavida Plus has a menu button on the left side of the steering wheel. Press and hold it before starting the car to enter the setup interface. Use the up and down buttons on the right side of the steering wheel to switch to the maintenance option, then find the reset item and confirm. The whole process takes just two minutes, much simpler than the older models. However, I always drive a few kilometers after resetting to confirm, avoiding any incorrect data jumps. By the way, it's best to go for the first maintenance at 5,000 kilometers for a new car, then set the interval to 10,000 kilometers afterward. If the reset fails with a warning light, it's likely that the last maintenance didn't register complete data in the system.
