Default "Change Oil" Warning

Does anyone know the protocol for turning off the little telltale "Change Oil" warning located under the odometer on an '08 Dakota? I had a lube job done the other day and it's still on.

I would bring it back to where you got it don, have them reset it, and have them tell you what they did for your inconvienence. Also tell them you want to know for the next time they change your oil you won't have to bring it back a 2nd time!
