To manually reset the maintenance light on your Toyota RAV4, you will need just a few seconds. The entire operation is very straightforward and can be done independently.

First, insert the key and turn it to position two. Start the ignition and immediately navigate through the onboard computer menu until you see the partial/total kilometres travelled. At this point, press and hold the button located below the rev counter and release it after a few seconds.

The reset of the light is now complete, but if there are any errors, simply turn off and turn on the ignition again to restart the reset procedure.
