The method to reset the maintenance light on the Jade is: 1. With the engine off, press and hold the short-distance counter reset button below the tachometer; 2. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position, release the short-distance counter reset button, and the 'Service' indicator will appear on the display; 3. Pull out the minute button of the clock, turn it to the right, and the mileage will be displayed on the screen; 4. Turn off the engine to reset the reminder message; 5. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position, and the 'Service' indicator will disappear. Taking the 2020 Jade as an example, its body dimensions are: 4665mm in length, 1775mm in width, 1530mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2760mm and a fuel tank capacity of 50 liters.
I remember driving my Jade for several years, and every time the maintenance light came on, I would manually reset it. Here's how: Park the car and turn off the engine, locate the TRIP button near the steering wheel and hold it down, then turn the key to the ON position—where the dashboard lights up but the engine doesn't start. Wait patiently for 5 to 10 seconds, and the maintenance indicator light will blink a few times and then turn off. At this point, release the button and turn off the key, and you're done. This trick works on my 2017 model, but I've heard that pre-2014 models might require pressing other buttons during the process, so it's best to check the manual first. Actually, the maintenance light is just a reminder tool—don't forget to do the maintenance after resetting it. Regularly changing the oil and filter is essential to protect the engine and extend the car's lifespan. I've seen many owners skip maintenance to save trouble, only to end up spending a fortune on engine repairs due to oil burning. Developing a good habit of resetting the light right after maintenance is perfect.
Hey, I know a thing or two about car maintenance. Resetting the Jetta's maintenance light isn't difficult. The steps are: after turning off the engine, hold down the TRIP button without releasing it, turn the key to the ACC position until the dashboard lights up, and usually within 5 seconds the maintenance light will change and turn off. Once done, turn off the key, and the system will be reset. However, some newer models require diagnostic computer intervention, so if the button method fails, it's best to go to a 4S shop and use professional tools. I always emphasize that this light is not just a symbol; it represents a preset maintenance cycle. After resetting, remember to change the oil promptly to avoid clogging. Drive gently in daily use, and with proper engine maintenance, the car will last longer, saving you a lot on repair costs in the long run.
