After performing regular maintenance that includes at least an oil change and replacing the oil filter, and ensuring proper disposal of the waste, you must reset the maintenance indicator on the instrument cluster display. This is a manual procedure but requires a small trick to access the menu: once the ignition is on, press and hold the OK button in the center of the left steering wheel spoke and the button with the phone symbol on the right spoke simultaneously.

Once in the menu, scroll through the options, select the maintenance plan, and perform the reset.
