The Kestrel Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 I have just changed my 57 plate Focus Ghia for a 60 plate Focus Sport. The outside temperature display on my new car is given in Fahrenheit (F) and I would like it to read in Celsius©. I have read through the owners handbook and tried all combinations in the car settings without success. Can anyone help me to change the units to Celsius?

Pidu Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 It was written here many times already :P Switch onboard computer to display temperature, press and hold reset button, this will change F degrees to C degrees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthSussex Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Set the Temperature in the centre of the display and then hold in the reset button until the display changes to C, this may take several seconds before the display changes. We all get fooled by this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeebowhite Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Its always worth a quick search on the forum before you ask a question! if nothing else it can save you a couple of hours waiting for a reply, especially a trivial question, as it gets asked very often!

tyler s Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 the ford handbook does not explain this correctly,it seems alot of people get caught out with the temp gauge.I bet half the fords running around are still set in fahrenheit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pidu Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 O c'mon, that is not right. Focus owners manual page 87 Note: The units of measure for outside air temperature and the automatic climate control can be toggled independent of the other displays. When showing the outside air temperature, press and hold the SET/RESET button for a short time. This is clear and easy to understand information. Problem is people don't read manual, why should they, this is just a car, they know everything already And these are the results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
