What does the wrench warning light in Chery QQ mean?
1 Answers
The wrench warning light in Chery QQ is a maintenance indicator, reminding the driver that maintenance is due. Vehicle maintenance cycle: The maintenance cycle is preset when the vehicle leaves the factory, so the "small wrench" symbol will appear at certain mileage intervals to remind the driver to perform maintenance promptly. Typically, the maintenance cycle is every 5,000-8,000 kilometers driven, with the factory setting being slightly longer than 8,000 kilometers. After maintenance is completed, the warning light can only be turned off by following a specific reset procedure. It's also possible that the light remains on because the maintenance reminder wasn't reset properly, in which case performing the reset again will solve the issue. Routine maintenance items: Oil change: Engine oil, also known as lubricant, helps reduce engine wear and provides cooling and lubrication. There are three types of engine oil: Full synthetic oil: Should be replaced every 10,000-12,000 kilometers. For vehicles that are not driven frequently, the oil may emulsify and lose effectiveness, requiring replacement after about a year. Semi-synthetic oil: Replacement is recommended every 8,000-10,000 kilometers. Mineral oil: Needs to be replaced approximately every 5,000 kilometers.
