You don't. O2 sensor light, if present, is simply triggered by the odometer
and is supposed to come on at certain mileage, usually 40K miles for
non-heated and 60K miles for heated sensors. It doesn't say anything about
actual condition of the sensor. On a healthy engine heated sensors tend to
last much more than 60K miles.
