Trip meter reset problem

I just bought a 2008 Dodge Caliber, and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to reset the trip meter on the instrument panel. It's a toggle button, so pushing it in changes it from an Odometer to Trip A to Trip B to Outside Temp. Turning the knob does nothing. Does anyone with Caliber know how to reset the trip meters to 0? Thanks.
