It comes on after a certain amount of mileage elapses, and isn't based on anything being out of tune. It's just Acura's way of telling you that it's time for you to bring the car to the dealership for the routine service. However, some do this themselves and don't want to have to go to a dealer just to get a light switched off.

There is a small box under the dash with a square blue button. Press and hold the button while the key is in the I (accessory) or II (run) position and hold it until the "MAINT REQD" light shuts off. This should be about two seconds.

heres the website that has pics
