How to reset service interval (remove 'Service Vehicle Immediately' warning)

[HStrophyPHEV2025rc]

Two weeks ago, I was on a long drive. When my mileage hit approx 6,200 miles I got a 'Service Vehicle Immediately' warning appear:

Clearly the cause was that the car thought my service was overdue:

I found a couple of posts (in a different forum) where it seems that some of the early cars (mine is a 74-plate from approx Oct 2024) had mistakenly been set to have their first service at 10,000 km (not 15,000 miles)
=> This explains why I got the message.

Luckily I found a video on YouTube which solved the problem for me. For the sake of anyone else who gets this message, this is what you need to do:
1. Scroll to the right, to show the icons
2. Go into 'Settings'
3. Scroll down (on the right-hand side) then click 'System'
4. Tap the entry "Entertainment System Version" 5 times (in quick succession)
5. Type in the password

• However, you can find this password on this forum in several places ;-)
  • Engineering Menu
  • Cyberster Software Versions
• TIP: For the sake of convenience, the password begins with "!Mg"

6. Scroll to Maintenance Settings

=> This is what mine originally looked like:

7. Change it to whatever is correct for your car (for example change kb to mile), then press Reset Now:

8. Back on the main system, check that the change has taken effect, for example:

Hope this helps someone!

Thank you for this. My Alert threshold was 360 days! So this is why it didn’t come up for a few days.
