Default Maintence required blinking- how do i find the problem?

Hello,

I m new to this...

My 2002 (auto) Civi EX, when i started up the motor, it blinked "maintence required" for like one minute then it stopped...

what is it ?

i couldnt find any problem.. i checked oil, radiatior antifreeze and everything is good as good level.

What color of fluid for transmission ? i couldnt tell any different...its like redish-rusty color.

It drive like a new..

Thanks!
