Default Reset oil light...

I have a 2000 Audi A6, and I just changed my oil. I am wondering how I reset the oil light that comes on? I do not have the owners manual. Thank you for your help!

Yup, after 3,000 miles, an oil light will flash on my cluster...and the longer I go without getting an oil changet he more freguent it gets. Before I had my oil change at an Audi Dealership, and the reset that annoying light for me. Since I changed the oil myself, I am wondering how I can reset it...its basically like a service light.

Is it an oil light (looks like an oil can) or does it say "Service"?

nope it doesnt say service, its where the weather shows or anything else related. And Press..I appreciate your help, but I am asking for help from someone who knows, instead of trying to prove wrong.
