To completely make the Service light disappear from the instrument cluster of the BMW Series 1, you need to turn on the instrument cluster and wait for all error messages to disappear. Once you reach the main screen, you should press and hold the button at the bottom left of the instrument cluster until the icon of a car on a bridge appears.

At this point, you need to keep pressing the BC button located on the lever to the left of the steering wheel. This will bring up the icon of a clock, which, once it disappears, will indicate that the Service reset procedure has been successfully completed.
