Default Mazda 2 fuel in oil warning light

Hello from yet another newbie and apologies for getting straight to the point but the above light has caused me some frustration. Does anyone know how to reset the fuel in oil warning light - either by some 'wizardry' with button/key combinations or by the use of a Fault Code Reader - the latter of which I have just purchased but it only resets the 'Check Engine' Light which is a different light and mine does not need resetting.

For those who may be interested, the subject light illuminates to tell you that you need to change your oil and oil filter otherwise the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) will not work as intended nor clean itself automatically.

My Mazda 2 was due its service and that is why the light came on. I was all ready to take the car to the Main Dealer until he advised that the bill would be 330 GBP!!! For basically an oil and filter change plus a reset of the subject light. I have since done the above maintenance for the cost of the parts ~56 GBP and all I need is to reset the light.

Any help/advice would be very very much appreciated.
