We are considering taking the CX3 back to the UK this summer.
However I cannot see how you can convert the digital speedo on our Spanish car from kms to miles.
It does not have the second button to the left above the speedo that the UK car seems to have. I only have one button to reset trip and adjust instrument lighting.
Is there anything in the settings that can do this?
Thanks Rob
kms to miles on digital speedo
It seems the ability to change the digital speedo readout between kmh and mph, and the other way round, is only available in certain countries! Seems a weird decision not making it available on all digital speedometer types in Europe at least, especially as owners might visit the UK on holiday in their own car.

Thanks, but this only changes the trip and the mpg, but the speedo remains in kms.anchorman wrote:The distance units are in the settings of the MZD Rob.

Yep, seems your right. Crazy! Fortunately my old Garmin has a speedo dashboard setting.st3v3cx-3 wrote:It seems the ability to change the digital speedo readout between kmh and mph, and the other way round, is only available in certain countries!

If you are just bringing your car to the UK as a tourist - i.e. it is registered to another country - for a temporary period, then it doesn't need a mph reading speedometer. Useful to have your Garmin unit to save you having to mentally convert the kph reading to mph. It may be possible for a dealer to carry out a change were a more permanent fix be required without replacing the unit itself.

I think the setting in MZD should be applied not only to odometer but also speedometer.

If you use the other button/stalk to the top left of the instrument panel it will change both between km & miles. Or at least it does on my model.

It's only a feature on cars for markets which uses miles (US/UK).HouseSpider wrote: ↑Sun Oct 17, 2021 4:58 pm If you use the other button/stalk to the top left of the instrument panel it will change both between km & miles. Or at least it does on my model.
CX-3s sold on mainland Europe (and else where) doesn't have the feature.
