Video tutorial

The Service light that appears on the instrument cluster of the Volkswagen Up can be reset by inserting the ignition key and turning it to switch on the instrument cluster. Before switching on the instrument cluster, press and hold the 0.0/SET button located on the right side of the instrument cluster for a few seconds.

A message will then appear on the instrument cluster, which can be modified by pressing the four-arrow button: this will allow you to confirm the inspection reset by navigating with the TRIP buttons on the lever to the right of the steering wheel and confirming with the OK button.

Once confirmed, you can turn off the instrument cluster completely.
