Check engine light.....

I've got a aem cold air intake installed in my car 4 days ago and while driving this morning I hit on the gas hard and my check engine light blinked 5 times and then back to normal. What does it mean? Do i need to disconect the battery to reset ECU to resolve problem?
BTW my battery was not disconnected during instalation.

If it comes back on, have it checked out. Theres nothing more you can do. Probably just an electronic glitch. I wouldn't worry about it.
