The maintenance light in a 2013 Toyota Prius c will illuminate when it's time for an oil change. Typically, a dealership or mechanic will reset the light during a service appointment. However, if it hasn't been reset or if you're changing the oil yourself, you'll need to do it manually. To reset the light, first, press the start/stop button once without pressing the brake pedal to prevent the engine from starting. Then, press and hold the odometer reset button when the total mileage is shown on the screen. While holding the reset button, press the start/stop button again without starting the engine. Continue holding the reset button until the dash reads 000000. Finally, start the car, and the maintenance light should turn off.
Here's a paraphrased and unique version: To reset the maintenance light on your Toyota Prius c, start by turning the ignition switch to the "on" position. If your car has a push-button start, press the "start" button without using the brake pedal. Then, quickly tap the odometer button until you spot "trip a" displayed.
