How to Reset the Oil Life on a Chevrolet Spark

Steps from the 2022 Chevrolet Spark owner's manual (Base level cluster (main method); uplevel cluster uses the Vehicle Information Menu).

Press MENU on the turn signal lever until Remaining Oil Life shows on the display.
With the oil life display active, press SET/CLR.
Wait a few seconds until the oil life resets to 100%.
Start the vehicle and check that the CHANGE message in the DIC does not return.

Reset only right after an oil change; an accidental reset cannot be corrected until the next oil change.
If the : % CHANGE message comes back at startup, the system did not reset, so repeat the procedure.
Uplevel cluster: turn ignition on with engine off, use MENU and the thumbwheel to REMAINING OIL LIFE, press SET/CLR. Alternatively press the accelerator pedal fully three times within five seconds.
