What is the method to reset the maintenance light on the 2020 Haval F7?

Haval H7 maintenance light reset is completed through button operations. Specific steps: With the engine turned off, press and hold the trip meter reset button. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position. When the 'SERVICE' indicator appears on the display, pull out the minute button on the clock and turn it to the right. The odometer reading will then appear on the display. Subsequently, turn off the engine, then turn the ignition switch to the ON position again to complete the maintenance light reset. Maintenance Light: The maintenance light is a reminder function set by the manufacturer to alert the owner to perform scheduled maintenance at certain mileage intervals or time periods. It appears in the form of an instrument panel or screen message or indicator light to remind the owner to service the vehicle.
As a long-time owner of a Haval F7 for several years, when the maintenance light comes on, I have to manually reset it, otherwise the reminder gets too annoying. The steps are quite simple: First, turn off the engine and don't start it, sit in the driver's seat, press and hold the TRIP button on the dashboard, then turn the key to the ON position without igniting. Hold for a few seconds, watch for the dashboard display to flash or change, usually wait a few more seconds before releasing the button. Once done, the light will go off. I've been using this method since the 2020 model without any issues. The key is not to operate while driving—safety first; the maintenance light reminds you of regular servicing, don't ignore it to avoid engine wear. I also recommend recording the maintenance mileage after each reset to develop a good habit, which can extend the car's lifespan by several years.
