Automatic Climate Control

I am not sure where to post this. Mods, please move this if this is the wrong place.

My question is there a way to change the temperature display on the auto climate control from °F to °C? It gets rather confusing for me being a slow witted Canadian.

To convert Fahrenheit temperatures into Celsius:
Begin by subtracting 32 from the Fahrenheit number.
Divide the answer by 9.
Then multiply that answer by 5.
Here's an example: Change 95 degrees Fahrenheit to Celsius: 95 minus 32 is 63. Then, 63 divided by 9 is 7. Finally, 7 times 5 is 35 degrees Celsius.

Piece of cake!

Not sure if it will be the same on your truck. On my '05 F-350 there are 3 buttons on the dash to the right of the steering wheel. Push the setup one and choose metric instead and english and this should change it.

That info/setup/reset button only seems to change the mileage info, not the temperature.

Don't mean to threadjack, but Foamy, are you also a member of the R6MN?

I would have to say no since I don't know what R6MN is.

Well I figure an update is in order in case anyone else has the same problem I did. To switch your display between US and Metric you hold down the "auto" button and press the "defrost/floor" button. Simple fix, so I am not sure why it took the dealership 2 days to give me an answer.
