What does the small wrench symbol on the Haval H6 dashboard mean?
3 Answers
It is a maintenance reminder symbol. 1. Reminder function: When the small wrench icon appears on the dashboard, it does not indicate a vehicle malfunction requiring repair, but rather signals that the vehicle is due for maintenance. This is a reminder symbol to prompt the driver for scheduled maintenance. 2. Resetting the icon: The icon needs to be manually reset after each maintenance service. If forgotten, the icon will continue to display even after maintenance is performed. Not all vehicles display the small wrench symbol; some may show a yellow oil can icon, which also serves as a maintenance reminder. 3. Important notes: (1) Always adhere to scheduled maintenance intervals. (2) The reminder can only be reset after maintenance is completed.
The small wrench symbol that appears on the Haval H6 dashboard is actually the vehicle's maintenance reminder light, indicating that it's time for regular servicing. From what I remember in my car, this icon typically means it's time for an oil change, filter inspection, or lubrication system check, usually appearing every 5,000 to 10,000 kilometers driven. Don't panic—it's not a fault signal but rather a routine service alert. If you ignore it, fuel consumption may increase, engine wear could accelerate, and ultimately, repair costs might rise. I recommend checking the user manual immediately to confirm the maintenance items, then heading to an authorized 4S shop or service center—they'll use professional tools to reset the light and complete the service, such as changing the oil and inspecting the brakes. Before attempting anything yourself, it's best not to force it—safety first, and don't delay in getting your car road-ready and healthy.
I've been driving my Haval H6 for over two years when suddenly a small wrench icon popped up on the dashboard the other day. At first, I almost thought there was something wrong with the car. After checking, I realized it was just a routine maintenance reminder, just like an alarm clock – probably time for an oil change, air filter replacement, or drivetrain inspection. I immediately drove to a nearby repair shop where the technicians performed a full check and easily reset the warning light. Looking back now, I'm glad I didn't delay. If I'd ignored it, the engine might have worn out faster, posing greater safety risks. Developing the habit of recording maintenance mileage helps keep the car in optimal condition – it's economical and gives peace of mind.
