BMW X3 Service & Repair Manual: Maintenance service reminder reset - procedure 5

NOTE: On some models an appropriate scan tool may be used to reset CBS service schedules. By using suitable diagnostic equipment connected to the vehicle diagnostic connector it is possible to reset CBS service schedules at any time.

By selecting the `CBS' option, the diagnostic equipment will gather information regarding the current state of CBS items from their relevant modules on the CAN network. See MAINTENANCE SERVICE REMINDER RESET - PROCEDURE 6.
