When a warning light appears on your car's dashboard, it can cause concern as the problem is often unclear. Fortunately, resetting the service light is not invasive and can be done through the dashboard menu.

Press the dedicated button to access it. Navigate through the menu until you find the option for driving time and distance. At this point, press and hold the same button for about five seconds.

Scroll down to the option for resetting the oil service. Press OK when prompted.

Repeat the same steps for the inspection service reset. Finally, close the menu, restart the dashboard, and you're done.
