Have a look in your manual for the details to reset the service indicator or there's a thread elsewhere on the forum with regards to 'hidden menus' and how to vary the service intervals dependent on the type of oil used.

There's a seperate thread (probably in DIY section) from Parrot of Doom who does a very good write up on changing the auto gearbox oil and filter. (You can't change the filter without dropping all the oil out!)

make sure you use the correct oil. It is very important.
