In the Nissan Qashqai, the oil filter warning light simply indicates that you have reached the set mileage target and therefore it needs to be replaced. Once this operation is completed, you can manually reset the light.

To do this, first turn on the ignition, then use the directional buttons located on the left side of the steering wheel to access the maintenance menu and enter the "Maintenance" section. Next, select "Filter", set the interval according to your needs, and perform the reset using the "Reset" option.

Finally, restart the vehicle.
