What does the wrench symbol on the Chery E5 dashboard mean?
1 Answers
When a wrench icon appears on the dashboard of a Chery vehicle, it indicates the maintenance reminder light. Below is relevant information about vehicle maintenance: Introduction to vehicle maintenance: Minor maintenance generally refers to the routine maintenance tasks performed at intervals specified by the manufacturer in terms of time or mileage to ensure vehicle performance. This mainly includes changing the engine oil and oil filter. The interval for minor maintenance depends on the effective duration or mileage of the oil and oil filter used. The validity periods of mineral oil, semi-synthetic oil, and fully synthetic oil vary by brand and grade, so follow the manufacturer's recommendations. Oil filters typically come in two types: regular and long-life. Regular oil filters are replaced along with the oil, while long-life oil filters have a longer service life. Precautions for vehicle maintenance: Avoid running the engine for extended periods in an unventilated garage. Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, an invisible and odorless toxic gas. Prolonged exposure to low concentrations of carbon monoxide can cause headaches, rapid breathing, nausea, vomiting, weakness, dizziness, mental confusion, and even brain damage. Avoid sucking on fuel pipes. Gasoline is not only flammable and explosive but also toxic, especially leaded gasoline, which can harm the nervous system, digestive tract, and kidneys. Avoid contact with carburetor cleaner. Most carburetor cleaners contain methyl chloride, aromatic compounds, and ethanol, all of which are toxic to some extent.
