read the manual, or search, but that basically comes on after a few thousand miles, its really easy to reset and make it go away if you service the car yourself, ie oil change, rotate tires, i just cant remember right now... but search and you shall find

its ONLY a dummy light. nothig to worry about. There is more abou it in your manual.

you hold the trip and reset buttons in THEN while holding them in turn the key to the run position (2 clicks on the key) and KEEP holding the 2 buttons in till the light turns off (about 10 seconds) if you turn the key and then push the buttons in you will mess with the outside temp readout

If the light isnt on yet and I just did an oil and tire rotation, if I do what you said to reset, will it still reset back to 0 miles or do I have to wait for the light to flash again some xxxxmiles later?
