Why is the malfunction indicator light (MIL) on in my Q5 PHEV?

Is it possible to reset the Q5 PHEV malfunction warning light on my own?

Resetting a malfunction warning light at home may be possible sometimes, but it is never recommended.

Resetting the check engine light without addressing the underlying issue may temporarily remove the warning, but it will not fix the root cause of the problem.
