How to Reset the Oil Life on a Hyundai Elantra

Steps from the 2023 Hyundai Elantra owner's manual (models with the Oil Life Management System and an infotainment system screen).

Change the engine oil and filter first.
Open the reset option by selecting 'RESET' from the infotainment system screen.
Wait for the message "Changed engine oil? Press [Yes] to reset the oil life." to appear.
Select 'Yes' to reset the oil life.

Always reset the remaining oil life whenever the engine oil is changed, or the oil life indication may not be accurate.
The system works only when the recommended engine oil is used.
