Default New to Us CX5 Question

Hi everyone, we just bought a 2014 CX5 for our daughter. I've been searching how to check and / or reset service info. Everywhere says push the start button twice to power it it without it running then use the info button to scroll up and down! When I do that all it scrolls through in range in mi, ave MPG and current MPG and that it?? I dont see a settings or info to work with? What am I missing? The CX5 is in great condition and drives great its just I'm a DIYer and need to be able to see and reset this stuff. Help Thank You BTW I determined it's a type B guage layout

Thanks folks. Can anyone answer my questions? Does our 2014 CX5 not have the maintenance monitor built in? We just got it and I'm trying to find out the oil life and how it gets reset. I've looked at the online owners manual (didn't have one) and searched online and apparently its a type B instrument setup (that new to me - never had a car that had two different instrument setups for the same US year and model)) anyway everything pointed to pushing the start button twice to put it in run mode without starting it then scroll using the info button. When I do that it only shows Total mi to empty, Ave MPG, and current MPG - no option for settings or anything like that. I did notice a sticker on the windshield showing when the next oil change is due from Escondito Mazda so that tells me maybe our just doesnt track any maintence info?? Maybe type B doesn't do that??? One other thing were trying to get the chirps off when locking and unlocking the car? Holding both buttons on the key fob down for 3 seconds isnt working - I'm a techie and this stuff is frustrating me. Thanks again

There is a type A vs Type B instrument cluster, lower grades vs higher grades.

Lower grades don't have the maintenance monitor.

Thanks I pretty must figured that out. I'm good with it now. I'll just do it manually. Suggestions on turning off the beeps when locking and unlocking the car?
