My car currently has 4500 miles on it. Am I only suppoed to bring my car in for service when the maintenance minder tells me to? What service other than an oil change should I expext on my first visit? Sorry for the stupid questions, but I've never had a car with this feature.

 

First visit is most likely "A1".

Services are in the manual, but iirc, it's Change Oil and Rotate Tires.

Once the MID gets below 15%, plan your service visit. Ours happened close to 4500 miles.


And yes, you only need service when the MID tells you.
