What to look for with maintenance needed light on?

I just hit 5k miles on the clock and my main. needed light came on. What should I be on the look out for? Any way to reset this?

Its in your manual. It's time to change your oil.

A stealership out to seperate you from your hard earned money!

No in all seriousness an oil/filter change and tire rotation about covers it. Check the maintenance manual for specific checks to be made but the 5K maintenance is pretty basic.
