There are (at least) two different resets.

The 25 second reset (holding the throttle pedal down until the transmission beeps, ensuring that the engine is not running at the time) is to reset the transmission shifts, which learn your driving habits over time.

The 10 second reset (turning the ignition on, then off, 10 seconds each, then starting the engine) is to reset the adaptive throttle, which adapts to how aggressively you press the throttle.

Here's a more detailed description for the 10 second reset of throttle response:
1) Insert the key & push the start button. (Don't touch the brake pedal & don't remove the key at any time)
2) Press & hold the accelerator down for 10 seconds.
3) Without releasing the accelerator push the start button.
4) Release the accelerator.
5) Wait a full 2 minutes.
6) Start the car normally & drive to see if it's more responsive.
+++1 that works no more jumpy drive with D fill like DS.
