Power on the car while keeping the engine off; press the reset button once, and the display will show the reset system. Each press of the reset button will switch to the next reset system; select the maintenance reset system and hold the reset button for about 3 seconds.

Last time I reset the maintenance light for my Mercedes-Benz E260L, it was quite simple. Turn off the car, rotate the key to the ON position (dashboard lights up but don't start the engine). Use the control button on the left side of the steering wheel to scroll through the menu and find the 'Maintenance' or 'Service' option, then select it. The screen will display remaining mileage and time information—follow the prompts to choose the reset function, then hold the OK button for a few seconds until the light turns off or you see a confirmation message. The whole process takes less than a minute, and I saved money by doing it myself instead of going to the dealership. Remember to do this immediately after maintenance to avoid misleading the system with false alerts for the next reminder. If the maintenance light stays on before a long trip, it could affect safety judgment. I do this after every service—it's hassle-free and helps maintain regular upkeep habits.

What is the vent under the seat?

The vent under the seat is an air conditioning vent. Introduction to car air conditioning: 1. Composition: The car air conditioning refrigeration system consists of a compressor, condenser, receiver-drier, expansion valve, evaporator, and blower. These components are connected by copper pipes (or aluminum pipes) and high-pressure rubber hoses to form a sealed system. 2. Function: It is used to adjust and control the temperature, humidity, air cleanliness, and air flow inside the car cabin to the optimal state, providing a comfortable riding environment for passengers and reducing travel fatigue. It also creates good working conditions for the driver, playing an important role in ensuring safe driving.

What is the normal tire pressure in bar?

Choose the appropriate tire pressure based on seasonal factors. In summer, to prevent tire blowouts, the standard pressure is generally between 2.2-2.4 bar; while in winter, a tire pressure of 2.6-2.8 bar is recommended. Here are the relevant details: 1. Summer tire pressure: During summer, overall temperatures are higher, and car tires are prone to overheating. If the tire pressure is too high, it can easily lead to blowouts, so maintaining standard pressure is sufficient. 2. Winter tire pressure: Winter tire pressure is slightly higher than in summer because tires undergo thermal expansion and contraction. Due to lower winter temperatures, a pressure of 2.6-2.8 bar is generally most suitable. 3. Other influencing factors: (1) Load capacity: Whether the vehicle is half-loaded or empty, the tire pressure should generally follow the reference values indicated on the car's sticker. For fully loaded vehicles, the same reference values should also be used. (2) Measurement environment: Tire pressure differs between hot and cold tires, typically by about 0.2-0.3 bar. For more accurate readings, it's best to measure the tire pressure a few hours after the car has been turned off. Otherwise, subtract approximately 0.2-0.3 bar. (3) It's worth noting for car owners that vehicles frequently used for long-distance travel should not have tire pressure set too low. The pressure can be slightly increased by about 0.2 bar above the standard value.

What is the working principle of Toyota's hybrid system?

Toyota's hybrid system works by converting kinetic energy during braking into electrical energy, and it can shut down the engine when the vehicle is stuck in traffic. Unlike traditional fuel-powered vehicles, Toyota's hybrid system (THS) does not use a dedicated starter when the engine starts; instead, it utilizes the generator for starting. The advantages of this system include: the power transmission device consists of two motors (MG1, MG2), a compound gear mechanism, an Atkinson cycle engine, an inverter assembly, and an HV battery, along with an HVECU. This system can distribute power transmission under various operating conditions by utilizing both the engine and the HV high-voltage battery, featuring low emissions of pollutants and smooth acceleration.

What kind of marking does the yellow dashed line belong to?

Yellow dashed lines belong to indicative markings. Information regarding yellow dashed lines is as follows: 1. Single yellow dashed line: In non-intersection areas of two-way roads, a yellow dashed line is commonly used, indicating that crossing is permitted, but drivers must be cautious of vehicles in the opposite lane. 2. Single yellow solid line: This is a dividing line strictly prohibiting crossing between two opposing lanes. Such solid lines are typically found at intersections, and crossing is not allowed on either side. 3. Double yellow line with one side dashed: For multi-lane roads with double yellow lines, if one side is dashed, it means vehicles on the dashed side can cross the line, while crossing is prohibited on the solid side. 4. Double yellow solid line: This type of dividing line is usually found on roads with at least four lanes (two or more lanes in each direction). The double yellow solid line indicates higher-speed lanes, strictly prohibiting vehicles from crossing for overtaking or making U-turns.

What Causes Brake Noise in Snowy Weather?

The causes of brake noise in snowy weather are: 1. Corrosion of brake discs or brake pads; 2. Excessive wear of brake discs and brake pads, typically brake pads should be replaced every 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers, and brake discs every 100,000 to 120,000 kilometers; 3. If the brake pads are installed incorrectly or the model does not match, noise may also occur. High temperature is the main cause of brake pad degradation, so brake cooling becomes particularly important; For disc brakes, cooling air should be directed towards the caliper, as the primary reason for brake degradation is the boiling of brake fluid within the caliper. Proper ducts or specially designed rims can direct cooling air to the caliper while driving.
