I’m not sure on this model, but typically I have seen two ways. The first is a simple button next to or above the fuse box that you need to push in. The other way is to turn the key to the on position (don’t start the car) and push in the gas peddle three times for a second or two pause between each push.

Failing that I would hope that it is in the owners manual.

On my Olds, you go to the oil life display, press the reset button and hold it in for about 5 seconds until the oil life resets to 100%. The same reset button that would be used for changing the trip monitor, etc. On my Olds it is in the service manual but not in the owners manual. On my Acura, its in the owners manual.
