Electronic Trip

On these new cars you have an electronic feature which calculates your average usage of fuel (In Canada its Liters per 100 Ks) and (USA must be Miles per gallon) outside temperature (Canada is in Celcius) and (USA is Fahrenheit)

Here's my question. is there a way or method to switch from the metric to imperial system?

Not sure about a DIY fix, but I would think it can be reprogrammed by the dealer...

The reason I asked is that my 1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee would allow you to switch by pushing the buttons in a special sequence. So i was hoping the Max also allowed this?

just called a local dealer and they said there is no toggle between the two, it is a dealer serviced issue
