By turning on the instrument cluster of the Volvo V40 and turning the key, press and hold the OK button located at the end of the lever on the left of the steering wheel. This will cause a red light to start flashing, and once it is completely cleared, you can turn off the instrument cluster.

Now, you need to activate it again, ensuring that the Service light has disappeared from the instrument cluster. You can verify the reset by turning off the display and turning it back on immediately after turning the key.
