Change Oil Warning

Need a little help.
I know I should just look at the manual but keep on forgetting.
I changed my oil at 3k, now its 3500 and the "oil change" keeps appearing everytime i start my car.
whats the way to get rid of that until 7k miles?

You need to set your maintenance intervals. Refer to your manual for info on how to set those.

Did you change the one in the information settings on the AV unit as well as the intervals stored in the square display between the tach and speedo?

Crappy that they don't sync, but it is what it is.

You need to reset it. It is in the AV unit and I think in the Tach unit (the one by the RPM and MPH gauges). You set the value but there is also a reset button just like there is on the Info reader for where it shows your miles per gallon reading.
