Yes, you can. It's not a one button press. Look at instructions for your car on the Ross-Tech wiki at http://wiki.ross-tech.com. You might need to read the label file for your instruments.

shaun what car do you have? Rs6 c5?

Can you not just do the usual press and hold the stalk on ignition and clear back to the 8k miles service indicator?
