What is the method to reset the maintenance light on the Leopaard CS10?
3 Answers
Turn off the car's ignition switch, press and hold the TRIP button without releasing it. With the other hand, turn on the ignition switch to start the vehicle, then release the TRIP button. When the dashboard prompts for maintenance reset, press and hold the ENTER switch for 3 to 5 seconds. After hearing a beep from the dashboard, the process is confirmed complete, and the maintenance light will turn off.
I've been driving my Leopaard CS10 for several years and often reset the maintenance light myself. First, turn the car key to the second position, which is the ignition-on but engine-off state. Then look at the dashboard, find the TRIP button on the left or a similar setup button, and hold it for about 5 seconds until a menu pops up on the screen. Use the directional buttons or knob to navigate to the vehicle settings or maintenance options, select the maintenance reset or reminder reset, and press the confirm button to complete the operation. Wait for the light to go off, and you're done. The whole process takes just a minute or two and is quite convenient. However, I should remind you to make sure the car is stationary and the engine is not running before performing the operation, otherwise things might go wrong. After resetting, the system will recalculate the next maintenance mileage to help you maintain your car on time. If there's no response following the above steps, it might be due to incorrect button location or a locked system—check the owner's manual or simply visit a 4S shop for assistance. Regular maintenance is crucial for the engine's lifespan, so don't ignore the warning light just to save some trouble.
As an amateur car enthusiast, I've studied the electronic system of the Leopaard CS10. Resetting the maintenance light essentially means resetting the ECU data. Turn the key to the ON position to power up the dashboard without starting the engine. Then press the dashboard button (usually the INFO or MODE button) to enter diagnostic mode. Navigate to the vehicle maintenance menu and select the option to reset the maintenance reminder. This operation essentially clears the mileage counter to remind you of the next maintenance. The light will turn off immediately after a successful reset. If the screen doesn't respond, check the vehicle's battery charge or fuse condition. The ECU records the maintenance cycle; if not reset in time, the light will stay on but the car can still be driven. It's recommended to reset it immediately after each maintenance. Doing it yourself can save money on garage fees, but beginners should refer to the official manual and proceed step by step to avoid accidentally changing other settings. Maintenance isn't just about the light; lubrication and component inspection are the core aspects.
