Default Converting to KPH

Is it possible to convert a K3 SV1000 speedo from MPH to KPH temporarily? I'm looking at a trip through France and it would be handy if it was in KPH for the journey. Lot better than a bit of paper with the conversions written down.

Cheers,
Mark

Tells you how to do it in the owners manual.

I think you press the left button until the milage counter is up, then press and hold it in and it converts to kph

Sounds far too easy. Now all I need to do is find the owners manual. Thx.

It is very easy and quick to do.

It also converts everything to kilometres as well, mileage counter, trip A and trip B.

So if you are planning a route in europe and making notes like stay on such and such road for 23miles......make sure you convert that so it says stay on such and such road for 36.8kilometres instead, other wise you will be turning off your road too soon and getting lost lol
