You can change your fluids regularly, but you still need to reset the maintenance button. Its located under the steering column. I think the manual tells you where it is.

maintenance light comes on at 15k, 30k, 45k, 75k and 100k (i think). it just comes on in intervals so you take it to the dealer and they just push the button If you do the maintence yourself the button is right under the steering column, hold it for like 5 seconds and it goes off.

I used to work for acura and yes the light will come on at certain milages. The button is not under the sterring colume. It is attached to the panel below the steering colume. It is on the right side at the bottom.
yea yea...you know what i meant
