There are two approaches to reset the oil life indicator on a 2012 Kia Sportage, depending on your vehicle's trim level. The initial method involves turning on the ignition without starting the engine, gently pressing the gas pedal fully three times, then turning the ignition off and on before starting the engine. The counter should reset accordingly. The second technique involves activating the ignition without starting the engine, then pressing and holding the reset button until the light blinks and goes off.
To clear the oil life warning or maintenance light on your 2012 Kia Sportage, simply follow these steps: Turn the ignition key to the "on" position and press the gas pedal slowly three times. After that, start your vehicle, and the oil light should show that it has been reset.
