With the partial odometer reset button, you can check some error codes, reset them, and also perform some functional tests like the instrument cluster test. To carry out these operations, it is recommended to obtain a workshop manual that outlines the procedures and the correspondence between the displayed codes and their respective errors and/or tests.

After turning on the ignition, press and hold the partial reset button until the error code menu appears on the odometer display, then press until you reach the desired code and perform the reset.
