Default Clueless on how to permanently shut off vehicle alerts

I Recently bought a Loaded 2007 Volvo S80 3.2L but I can’t seem to figure out how to shut off the maintenance alerts. The vehicle was just serviced and is still showing maintenance past due and it always shows that I need more washer fluid despite being full. Any input would be much appreciated!

There is a reset function to turn off the maintenance indicator until it hits another 5000 mile interval. You can search online and it is pretty easy to do.

As far as the washer fluid, you have a bad level sensor. There is no way to eliminate that warning short of just replacing the level sensor. It is fairly easy to do.

Yea I was dumb not to go straight to YouTube, I figured it out right away. There’s a guy on there volvosweden who has videos for everything pertaining to Volvo’s. And I added fluid and the washer fluid warning went away and then I noticed it leaking out of my front bumper immediately and realized that a leak is the problem. It holds enough but not a full tank of washer fluid.
