Default My temps are all Euro...

Well I recently did a simple battery change for my 03' Disco 2. Now this is the first time I have changed or done anything with the electrics with this car. Yet, even with the minor project of changing the battery has caused a world of kaos for me.

There is only one problem:
MY Tempature INFO reads only in Celcius, not Farenheit.

What do I do?

Owners manual page attached. Great bed time reading. Part of a larger download called the RAVE, which is the whole set of factory tech manuals. Free below. Or slightly higher at the dealer, one painful lesson at a time...

I don't see how the scale used changes the accuracy. It certainly does affect the precision. The Fahrenheit scale is more precise. 180 units between freezing and boiling points of water versus 100 units.
