Hello There, to Reset Change Engine Oil Light for your Aveo :

Turn the ignition to run, one position before starting engine.
Immediately after step 1 press and release the gas pedal 3 times within 5 seconds.
If CHANGE ENGINE OIL light does not go out. Then turn off the ignition and repeat steps 1 and 3.
Turn the ignition off and then start the engine to. Now you can verify that the indicator has been reset.
