Default check engine light turned on, then I noticed that the gas cap was turn the not secure. How do I turn

Got a smog check and when they did the gas cap test I guess the guy didn't put the gas cap back on secure enough. So after that the check engine light went on. The techs at the acure dealer ship told me that I should just leave it alone and it'll go off in a couple of days. What should I do it's getting real annoying.
