If you do your own oil changes, this is a helpful tip to keep in mind. Typically, it is best to wait until your dealer maintenance service warranty expires, as an 'owner' reset could result in a missed oil change, particularly if the dealer checks the indicator it does not believe an oil change is due.
1. Locate the trip odometer button and depress and hold. 2. Insert the key into the ignition and partially turn into the first position. 3. Pay attention to the trip odometer to display the word 'RESET'. 4. Release the trip odometer button, then press & hold it again. 5. The 'RESET' message will flash. 6. Release the button, and then press & release again (once only) 7. The service interval is now reset to 10,000 miles
Try this procedure and let me know if it does not work.
1. Ignition key in the "Off" or "0" position.
2. Press and hold the odometer button and turn the ignition key to the "Accessory" or "1" position.
3. Keep the odometer button pressed in until you see the following words in the display, "oil service", or "inspection" with "reset" or "re".
4. Press and hold down the odometer button again until "reset" or "re" flash.
5. While the display is flashing, press the odometer button again briefly but do not hold it down this time to reset the service interval indicator. After the display has shown a new service interval then "END SIA" should appear in the display for two seconds.
If the procedure fails the first time then repeat the procedure and it should clear the service interval indicator.
SET THE ODOMETER. GET IT OUT OF THE TRIP MODE TO THE ODOMETER BY PRESSING IN ON THE BUTTON CLOSEST TO THE ODOMETER. ONCE THE ACTUAL ODOMETER SHOWS, THEN PRESS AND HOLD THE SAME BUTTON WHILE TURNING THE ENGINE IGNITION ON. CONTINUE TO HOLD THE BUTTON IN FOR APPROX TEN SECONDS. THE CHECK ENGINE OR OIL LIGHT WILL FLASH AND GO OUT FOR UNTIL 5,000 MILES HAVE ACCUMULATED ON THE ODOMETER TO LET YOU KNOW IT'S TIME FOR ANOTHER OIL CHANGE.

TURN IGN ON
PRESS THE TRIP BUTTON REPEATEDLY UNTIL OIL LIFE IS DISPLAYED WHERE YOUR MILEAGE DISPLAYS

To reset go to screen where it says the oil life percentage. Have the car off but in the on position. Press the odometer button (same button to get to the oil life screen) in and hold for a while, something like 30 sec or so until it starts flashing...Then let go and push the button again and hold and after like 5 seconds i think it will then display 100% and that's it. Hope this helps you, good luck!
