Yes there is, but I don't know how to do it.
We don't have the maint. warning light in Canada.

I have not gotten there yet but it is my guess that, if like most vehicles, you will have to bring it to the dealer to have it reset.

If it's similar to the Sienna, you might be able to reset it by holding in the trip meter on the odometer. Try this:

1. With the car started (ignition on), set the LCD odometer readout to total mileage ( not trip A or B ).
2. Turn the car off (ignition key to the OFF position).
3. Push in AND HOLD the button/knob that switches the odometer, then turn key to ON position without starting the car. You will notice the maintenance light blink and go out.
4. Release the odometer button/knob.
5. That's it! The "MAINT REQD" light has been reset to warn you to change your oil in another 5,000 or 7,500 miles or so.
