After performing regular maintenance by replacing the oil and filters, the reset of the SERVICE light on the instrument panel is done manually using the trip reset button (0.0/SET), located at the bottom right of the instrument panel, near the fuel level indicator.

With the ignition off, press and hold the trip reset button, then turn on the ignition.

At this point, release the button and press it again to complete the reset: the service warning light will no longer appear on the next ignition.
