Resetting the maintenance light on the Mercedes-Benz Vito van is something I often do myself. First, turn the car key to position two, where the dashboard lights come on. Then press and hold the reset button on the dashboard, usually the small button at the bottom left, for about ten seconds until the screen displays "service reset" or a similar message. Release the button and restart the vehicle to check if the reset was successful. I once failed because the battery voltage was low, so checking battery health is important. The maintenance light reminds us to change the oil regularly, which shouldn't be ignored to avoid engine damage. It's recommended to reset it after each maintenance to avoid false alarms. If you're not familiar with the operation, it's safer to go to a professional shop.
