On my '90 Cutlass w/digital dash, I have a DIS (Driver Information
System) that displays the oil usage as a percentage from 100% down to
0%. To reset it, display the oil percentage, then push and hold the
reset button for about 5 seconds or so, this will reset it. The next
time you display the oil percentage, it will be 100%. -PapaRick

First press the OIL button to display the oil message (if it is not already
shown). Then press both RESET and OIL and hold them for at least five
seconds.
