You may have exceeded the mileage since your last oil change. Not sure what the factory setting is on your car. If you have driven 3500- 4000 since your last oil change, that may be what has triggered the light. Try turning your key to the ON position without starting your car. Now push in the knob and hold it for your mileage/trip counter for 20 seconds. See if that resets the light.

You go to trip meter reset button with key turned off, not started and hold the button in, then key off, then back on again. In control panel you should see "resetting maintenance data." Wait until completed and lights are reset. Make sure lol is good ( levels etc.)
