I'm here to help! To adjust the maintenance reminder on your car's dashboard to match the actual mileage, you usually need to reset or update the maintenance settings. Here’s a general approach: 1. **Check the Owner's Manual**: Look for instructions specific to your car model regarding how to reset the maintenance reminder. 2. **Use the Trip Button**: In many cars, you can use the trip button on the dashboard. Press and hold it while the car is in the "On" position (but not running) until the maintenance light blinks or resets. 3. **Consult the Service Menu**: Some vehicles have a service menu accessible via the infotainment system where you can update maintenance intervals. 4. **Visit a Service Center**: If you're unsure, it's best to visit a service center or dealership. They can use diagnostic tools to reset the reminder accurately. Remember that the steps can vary depending on your car brand and model.
