How do you reset the service light on a 2016 Volkswagen New Beetle?

Model: Volkswagen New Beetle MK 3 - Years 2011-2018
Part: Service warning light

Taking personal responsibility for the routine maintenance of one's car, in this specific case the 2016 Volkswagen New Beetle, is a very common choice. As shown in this video tutorial, the engine oil and the oil filter should be replaced at every service interval, so we will go through the various necessary steps. Once that is done, we will focus on resetting the warning light, also using this video as a guide: while holding down the 0.0/Set button, we will turn on the instrument cluster, and as soon as we see "Reset Service" on the onboard computer, we will press Ok to confirm.
