Oil Change and Dashboard Alert

Oil Change and Dashboard Alert
Hi Guys,
I currently have around 7,200 miles on my car. I had my first oil change with the Lexus Dealer back in October at around 2,000 miles. I recently just got an alert on my dashboard saying I'm due for a maintenance check.
I am wondering if the maintenance check alert is showing is because the Lexus dealer had programmed it to show on a certain date or if it was passed a certain mileage from my last maintenance check?
Thanks and sorry if I am unclear. Last question, what is the ideal intervals in mileages for an oil change? It's a 2011 Lexus IS 250.
Thanks again!!!

Oftentimes, the technician may have just forgotten to reset the Oil Maintenance; I had that happen to me after a goodwill oil change from CarMax after picking up my IS 250 AWD (drove it for less than 100 miles and the light came up). So I just reset it myself and I do that every time I change my oil.
There's a thread here on how to reset it or ehow has a simple instructions to reset the light.

Ironically, they knew how to get into the oil service on the navigation and set up a reminder but didn't know how to reset the light.
