The oil change light is your car's "friendly" reminder to change your oil. The computer bases it off of how many hours/miles the car has gone (I believe) and decides on it's own when it "thinks" you should change your oil.
To make it go away, do the following:
Turn the key to the "on" position (vehicle not running).
Press the accelerator to the floor three times (no more than 5 seconds apart).
The next time you turn the car on, the little light won't come back on again (until it "thinks" you need another oil change).
