In order to completely reset the Service light on the Volkswagen Passat instrument panel, you will need to turn on the display and press the OK/RESET button located on the lever to the right of the steering wheel. This will allow you to access the menu that will appear on the instrument panel, navigating with the buttons on the same lever.

By selecting the "Setup" option and then the "Service intervals" option, you will be able to access the screen that indicates the remaining kilometers until the next service. Pressing the OK/RESET button will allow you to reset the light, also restoring the service intervals.

How to Adjust the Rear Seats of the BMW X1

In this video, see how the BMW X1's cargo area can be used to transport large loads. To expand this area, the rear seat can be folded down with a 40/20/40 split, each section can be folded separately or all together. The seats can be adjusted independently to provide more space for passengers or cargo: to do this, pull the handle located at the bottom and push or pull as needed. To position the backrest in the desired position, there is a cordura handle on the left side. Inside the trunk, there are buttons that automatically fold the backrests of the rear seats forward, but only after ensuring they are clear. They can be returned to an upright position manually using the cordura handle.
