The method to reset the maintenance light on the Damai X7: First, turn off the ignition key and wait until all the lights on the dashboard go out. There is a long button on the dashboard; press and hold this button without releasing it, then power on the car (do not start the engine). After a few seconds, the maintenance light will automatically turn off. The Damai X7 has body dimensions of 4736 mm in length, 1942 mm in width, and 1672 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2850 mm. The Damai X7 features front-wheel drive, with a front suspension type of MacPherson strut independent suspension and a rear suspension type of multi-link independent suspension. The body structure is of a unibody design.
Last time I reset the maintenance light for my friend's X7, the method was quite simple. Usually, before starting the vehicle, turn the key to the ACC or ON position without starting the engine, then press and hold the TRIP button or settings key on the dashboard for 5 to 10 seconds, and release it when you see the maintenance indicator light flash or go off. Some models may require pressing a combination of buttons several times or accessing the system menu via the steering wheel controls. If it doesn’t work, check the user manual—the official DaMai materials will definitely have instructions. The maintenance light is a reminder to change the oil, filters, etc., regularly. Don’t just reset it for convenience; make sure the vehicle is in good condition first, otherwise, you might miss issues that could lead to bigger problems. Regular checks every 5,000 kilometers or so can help avoid unnecessary repair costs.
I've been driving the Damy X7 for several years, and my experience with resetting the maintenance light tells me that the steps are roughly as follows: turn off the engine and close the door, sit in the driver's seat, turn the key to the second position but do not start the engine, then look for a small button on the dashboard such as ODO RESET, press and hold it until the warning light goes off before releasing. If it fails, try pressing the button repeatedly a few times or wait for the self-check to complete. The key is to operate in the power-on state, not when the engine is running, to avoid interfering with the driving system. The maintenance light is actually a friendly reminder, telling you that the maintenance period has arrived. After resetting, you should go for an oil change and parts inspection as soon as possible, so that the car runs smoother and lasts longer. I also recommend using diagnostic tools regularly to monitor and avoid overlooking other potential minor issues.
