2020 S60 T5 Oil Change Reminder Won't Reset After DIY

Hey everyone, I just did an oil change on my 2020 Volvo S60 T5 Momentum. I followed all the steps for the oil change itself, used the correct synthetic oil and filter. Everything went smoothly.

However, I'm having trouble resetting the 'Service' reminder light on the dashboard. I've tried the common method of holding down the trip odometer button while turning the ignition on, but it just doesn't seem to work for my model year.

Is there a specific trick or sequence for the 2020 S60 that I'm missing? Or do I absolutely need a VIDA/DICE tool or a generic OBDII scanner with service reset capabilities for this generation of Volvo?
