How do you reset the Service light in the Audi A5?

Model: Audi Q5 MK 2, 80A - Years 2017-2025
Part: Service warning light

When the Service light is on, it means that we will soon reach the scheduled mileage or time deadline for the maintenance. In addition to the inevitable engine oil and oil filter change, sometimes other tasks are added, such as timing belt replacement, pollen filter replacement, etc. For those who decide to do it themselves, it is important to remember to reset the warning light after completing the necessary work. This can be done either directly on the car's instrument panel, as shown in the tutorial available here, or by connecting a PC to the OBD port, accessing the ECU and resetting everything via software.
