What happens here

After refilling the oil, the presenter shows how to reset the maintenance reminder light (a small wrench icon) on the ATV's digital display. He turns the ignition key to the off position, then presses and holds the "reset" button located on the display while simultaneously turning the key to the on position. The wrench icon flashes several times and then disappears, indicating the reminder has been reset. He then starts the ATV and lets it run for about 60 seconds to circulate the new oil. After a minute, he turns off the engine, pulls out the dipstick, wipes it clean with a shop rag, reinserts it without screwing it in, pulls it out again, and checks the oil level. The oil level is perfectly on the mark, confirming a successful oil change.

Goal: Clear the maintenance reminder and verify correct oil level after circulation.
