Resetting Trip Odometer

Okay, I feel stupid posting htis, but.... I purchased a used 2003 TL Type S that had no owner manual. I have tried figuring out how to reset the trip odometers (A and B) to no avail. I searched the web, and nothing. Does anyone know how to reset the trip odometers? When I push the reset button (the logical choice) I just get a nasty beeping back at me. HELP! ! !

Press and hold the Reset button until the odometer resets to 0.

Thanks guys.

Ya know I REALLY feel stoopid, especially when I was in the car today and decided to hold the button down for a few seconds instead of just pressing and releasing. Yeah, sure enough it resets...

This is wrong.

As the Owner's Manual mentions, the reading can be incorrect when vehicle speed is less than 19 mph.
