The oil light serves as a reminder to inform the driver that an oil change is necessary. If this operation has already been performed, but the warning light continues to appear on the dashboard, you need to perform a manual reset.

To do this, turn on the ignition and press the button located below the speedometer. Once the display shows "Trip", turn off the ignition and hold the same button for a few seconds.

At the same time, turn on the ignition. Once the reset is confirmed, release the button.

The operation is complete.
