Default 2015 RX350 25000 mile service?

Hi guys I'm new here. We purchased this 2015 rx350 used a month ago.
The service reminder is on now for 25000 mile service, also the dealer was emailing me about this service remidner too. But when I check the manual, there doesn't seem to have anything critical to be done.
So the question is, to maintain factory warranty, what should I do? Just go ahead reset the reminder?

You do not need the dealer to do this to maintain the warranty. It is a minor checkup that makes the dealer lots of money. No fluids are changed.
When Toyota/Lexus went to 10,000 mile oil changes with synthetic oil, they left the 5,000 mile maintenance indicator alone so they could have their dealers make more money off you by overcharging to rotate your tires while you eat their pastries and drink coffee while watching the big screen TV in the lounge you are paying for.
Just check the fluid levels and tire pressure yourself. If you take it to any local shop for a tire rotation, they will as a matter of course, check the brakes and fluids etc.
The driver floor mat inspection is related to the unwanted acceleration claims a few years back and can be ignored unless it came out of the clips that hold it down.
