Insert the key into the ignition and turn it to the “on” position without starting the engine. You should see various warning lights illuminate on the dashboard.

With the ignition still in the “on” position, press and hold the “reset” button until the service light begins to flash. This usually takes about 5-10 seconds.

• Release the button

Once the service light starts to flash, release the “reset” button.

• Turn off the ignition

Turn the key to the “off” position and remove it from the ignition.

• Wait a few seconds

Wait about 10 seconds to ensure that the service light has been reset.

• Turn on the ignition again

Insert the key into the ignition and turn it to the “on” position. The service light should no longer be illuminated.
