It doesn't need to be - it learns as it goes. The reset procedure just speeds up the learning process. So if you don't do a reset, expect the car to lack power at times, and generally carry on a bit, but after 100kms or so, it should be all good.

Casper - I think he means does he need to go through the fast-track relearn procedures (in drive, A/C on, In drive, A/C off etc).
