How do you reset the service reminder on 07 VW Passat?

I had to get an oil change and couldn't wait to get an appt at the dealership. How do I reset the service warning light on the message board without having to bring it to the dealership?How do you reset the service reminder on 07 VW Passat?1. Keys out of ignition- press and hold in trip odometer reset button "0.0" on right hand side of display



2. Still holding this button down, insert key into ignition and put to the on position without starting the car.



3. Display will read "service now"



4. let go of the "0.0" button and depress the "m" button on the left hand side of the display. this will re-set the service reminder. There is no confirmation on the display other than the words "service now" will disappear.



You can confirm that the service reminder has been reset, or check how many miles/days remain until service at any time by taking key out of the ignition and holding in the trip reset "0.0" button for between 3 and 5 seconds. The MFD will display miles and hours until next service.
