In this video, you can see how to reset the service light on an Audi A3 8P: it is a simple and straightforward process. Turn on the ignition without starting the engine; on the left side of the speedometer, you will find a button/dial.

Pull it once, then let it go. Next, pull it again and keep it pulled until the display showing the spanner icon resets. It will show three dashes and the word "oil". That's it. The warning will turn off by itself after a few moments, making it really simple.

No further actions are required.
