2013 XC T60 - KPH to MPH?
 
So I've had this car a couple of months now and have been figuring out how it all works together. One thing I can't find is how to change what shows on the console. As I rotate around between the different displays on the right console, one of them is the digital display of how fast you are going. Currently it is set to KPH. I'd prefer MPH. Unless I missed it, there is no option to change it in settings.
If there is place to change it, could you post step by step how to get there as I've tried, what I think, are all the options.
Thanks

No way. It is hardcoded in the car configuration. That is feature of extended trip computer. Idea is when you going abroad where KPH is used you use it.

Interesting... you would think that if a car is being sold in the US that it would at least give you the option of switching between the two.
Thanks for the info.

Changing units
To change the unit (miles/km) used to measure
distance and speed, go to MY CAR
Settings System options Distance
and fuel units.

Digital speed display*
Speed is expressed in the unit not used by
the instrument panel's speedometer e.g., if
the normal speedometer is in mph, the trip
computer will display in the speed in km/h
and vice versa.

My dealer told me that that display cannot be changed. I think it's strange that you can't have your speed in digital form in front of you especially since the older speedometers are so bad. Hard to see during a bright day, for example. My 99 Porsche has both and it's really nice having that quick reference at a glance.
