When the service light comes on in a vehicle, it indicates that the service is due soon, so be prepared to replace the engine oil, the oil filter, and everything the manual specifies at each specific mileage reached. Once the necessary operations are completed, reset the warning: press and hold the button located under the odometer on the right, turn on the ignition, and wait a few seconds.

You will notice four dashes appearing on the small display next to each other. This will indicate the end of the procedure, allowing you to turn off the ignition.
