climate control degrees F to degrees C?
 
Somehow managed to change the display from Celsius to fahrenheit tonight. No idea how anyone know how I change it back?

Hold down the demister button for 5 seconds or so. That ought to do it.

I can confirm the above :)

It will default back to normal next time you start the car.

Dont be so sure, I done the same as Jay and it stayed the same for 2 months until I could be bothered to read the handbook!

Just pretend you're a yank lol ;)

In the Summer I have the display showing Fahrenheit, it "looks" hotter lol.
Although I do revert to Celcius in the Autumn / Winter months (well, on my ex ZT 190 I did).
Out of curiosity, and not having a facelift handbook or owning my 180 during any Winter month (I bought it late February, so missed out on any sub zero temps), does the display show a snowflake when the temp dips below zero, or just a minus value?

Sorry to hijack this post, but has anyone ever taken a VERY close look at the ATC display? There are few words that i've never seen displayed. Looking very closely at the screen, you can see the word "purimax" written inside the air recirculation symbol, and also i've noticed the word "service" too??
And the symbol that DOES illuminate, in the very top left hand corner, that resembles a half Sun/half Snowflake (and stays permanently illuminated, regardless of any setting), what is it telling me!?? Lol.
I need to get a facelift handbook!

The EATC unit does display a snowflake 0n the bottom left of the screen when it cold IIRC it illuminates when it reaches 3oC. The "Purimax" function isnt applicable in our cars. The word "service" appears if a sensor or flap motor goes faulty.

For ages I wondered what the top left symbol was for, anyone know?

KevG 04-11-12 04:02 PM

Nothing Pete, it is just manufacturers symbol

After 6 years of 180 ownership I now know what the symbol means lol

Thanks for that. About the Snowflake, mine didn't illuminate this morning, and the display registered 2 degrees, Mmm.
And what does the permanently displayed, very top left symbol mean??
Anyone?
Sorry!! Didn't read to the end of the posts! I now know what the top left symbol means. Ta! Lol.
