Reset Remaining Oil Life?

I'm looking for the procedure to reset the oil remaining life.
I know about hitting the gas pedal three times.
How do you reset via the steering wheel - DIC?
Reading the manual, I can't seem to get it done.

2018 1LE

What is the simple procedure using the method below?

Nothing to do with the gas pedal.

Go to the oil life screen in the DTC. Hold down the OK/select button until it resets.

There is way to reset using the Gas Pedal. I haven't tried that.

I have found the " Oil Life " in the DIC. I'm not sure what to do next. I can't seem to figure out how to bring up the page and reset.

Do you have the procedure to walk me through it step by step? I need to find out what I'm doing wrong.

Straight from Page 26 of your owner's manual:

Resetting the Oil Life System
1. Display the REMAINING OIL
LIFE on the DIC. See Driver
Information Center (DIC) 0 130.
2. Press and hold SEL on the DIC
while the Oil Life display is
active. The oil life will change
to 100%.

The oil life system can also be reset
as follows:
1. Display the REMAINING OIL
LIFE on the DIC. See Driver
Information Center (DIC) 0 130.
2. Fully press and release the
accelerator pedal three times
within five seconds.
See Engine Oil Life System 0 259.

Thank you,, I'll follow this tonight when I get home. Apparently I've been in the wrong place on the DIC. I was scrolling through different areas. Found oil, but I could not open the page. Oil " Life " is what I need to be looking for.
Thanks again,
