What does it mean when a wrench light appears on the dashboard?

When a wrench light appears on the dashboard, it means the vehicle has reached its scheduled maintenance interval and should be taken to a 4S dealership for servicing. This indicator will disappear after the maintenance is completed. The maintenance cycle is pre-set when the vehicle leaves the factory, and the small wrench symbol will appear at certain mileage intervals to remind the driver to perform timely maintenance. Typically, the maintenance cycle is every 5,000 to 8,000 kilometers driven, with factory settings often exceeding 8,000 kilometers. The purpose of vehicle maintenance is to maintain a clean appearance, ensure normal technical conditions, eliminate potential hazards, prevent faults, slow down component deterioration, and extend the vehicle's service life.
