In order to completely remove the Service light that is shown on the instrument panel of the Volkswagen Touareg, you will need to insert the ignition key into the slot and then press and hold the button located at the bottom left of the speedometer.

While holding it down, you will then need to turn the key to start the instrument panel: a message will appear on the screen asking if you really want to reset the Service light.

By pressing the OK button located on the right side of the steering wheel, the light will be reset and the instrument panel can be turned off.
