Change Oil Light Comes On The Odometer When Started

Does anyone knows how to reset the change oil display in the odometer.
I checked the manual and there is nothing saying how to reset this? I do my own oil changes. Its a 08 ram 5.7l.
Thanks again,

you turn the ignition to run but don't start, wait for the oil change light to begin to flash, then press and release the gas pedal 3 times, then you start your truck up.

It will come on every 2500 miles to give you time to schedule the next oil change.
