How to reset service lights
Move start switch into position "2"
Withing the first 4 seconds after moving start switch into position "2", press the reset button for trip counter twice within one second.
The display for the service request is thus activated for 10 seconds
Within these 10 seconds move start switch into position "O". The service request continues to be displayed
Press reset button for trip counter and hold pressed
Move start switch into position "2"
Continue to hold reset button for trip counter (about 10 seconds) until the signal sounds and the new start distance appears in the display.
I hope this helps, it does work.

Manual and FSS
I don't have Manual in front of me since I'm at folks on vacation, spend a couple minutes with it and you'll find. Not trying to snipe at ya....I posted this question too and I found it in the manual.
