Default Warning Message

Ok..i been seeing the Oil change needed soon warning when i start the car.
I decided to change the oil yesterday at Jiffy Lube (nice and quick). Everything went fine (i bought the cartridge filter insert at my dealer first cause JF doesnt carry it yet) but i am still getting this warning.

Anyone have any idea how i get rid of this nuissance?

It's probably just the reminder that was set in the Navigation system. Just go into the menu and reset it.

Here's what works for me. With the IG off hold down the reset button while turning the IG on. Keep holding the reset button for several seconds. That should reset it.

I've tried to reset the warning message but have been unable to do it....

It says to press ODO trip until the display clears????if i press the ODO trip it toggles between ODO, trip A , and trip B...

Anyone did this before that can tell me what I did wrong or what's wrong with the directions in the manual....

Yes, I worked for me. After I had my 5k service I called the Lexus service tech and this is how he told me to reset it.
