Switch on the ignition

Press and hold the cluster button
Now when you’re on the Engine Oil screen you’ll press and hold the button again and when It says “Reset?” you’ll release the button
Press the button again

To begin, press the START button once while the clutch and brake pedals are not depress
Once it is on, you need to press and hold the TRIP 0.0 button for a couple of seconds and release it when you see the Reset Possible service item

After finding the one you want, press and hold the zero button until you see PERFORM RESET?
