The procedure to reset the oil warning light in the Fiat 500 is illustrated in the last two minutes of this video. As shown, it involves turning the key to the ON position (or position 1) to activate the instrument cluster without starting the engine and pressing the accelerator pedal fully three times in quick succession.

This must be done within 10 seconds; otherwise, the light will not reset, and you will need to repeat the procedure. The first part of the video illustrates how to change the engine oil: an essential operation that must always be done before resetting the light.
