Default Maintence Required light

I haven't been on here in a while, due to school and having no money for mods, haha. But recently I've noticed that whenever I start my car up my main't required light blinks a few times and then stops, do I have anything to worry about or is it just a service light that Honda has preset into the ECU? The car has been running fine however the light is starting to give me some concern. Thanks

It should tell you in your owners manual how to reset it.

The light comes on and stays on 7500 miles after resetting it. When it's X amount of miles before 7500 (I forget how many exactly) the light will flash a few times, then turn off. It's pretty much giving you some head notice that the light is going to come on soon and the scheduled maintenance is coming up.
