When it flashes, it's a pre-warning. The light should be reset when the oil is changed (or scheduled maintenance is done). Between 6000 and 7500 miles since the time the light was reset, the light will flash for around 10 seconds after startup to warn. After 7500 miles, the light goes solid as a reminder that maintenance needs to be done.

It flashes to let you know the car is almost ready for a service. Once it goes on steady, that means your car is ready for the service. I personally don't follow that light, so whenever it flashes I reset it.
Directions on resetting it as well as the suggested services are all in your owners manual.

I just consider mine a mileage marker.
I've gone another 7500.
Hold select reset buttons down and turn the key two clicks and watch teh light go off.
