Has nothing to do with it. This isn't a "low oil" warning. It's a service reminder. My car has it too. The mechanic has to follow steps to shut off the reminder. It'll automatically go right back on again when the odometer reads whatever the next number is for the next service reminder.

I got my oil change at Walmart and they didn't turn off the reminder. I tried following the instructions a few times and eventually just stopped bothering. I know when I need to change my oil and I know when it's time for another yearly maintenance visit.

When the *warning* light goes on, I bring it to the dealer as soon as possible (within hours or - I bring the car home and don't drive it again until I'm driving it to the dealer).
