How to Reset the Service Light in an Opel Meriva?

Model: Vauxhall Meriva Meriva A, MK 1 - Years 2003-2010
Part: Service warning light

As the service interval approaches, the first series Opel Meriva will alert you via the Service light, which is shaped like a spanner. If you decide to perform the oil change yourself, you will also need to reset this warning, which is done as follows: turn on the ignition, press the button located to the right of the speedometer, at the bottom, several times until you reach the mileage set for the maintenance interval, hold it down for a few seconds and wait for the value to flash and then reset to zero. This completes the reset process.
