LCD display on tach

Does anyone know if there's a way to easily change the readout to metric (make it display speed and temp in km/h & C)? I do a fair amount of driving in Canada, and it's a pain to have to keep looking over at the huge speedo.

I tried holding the button but no dice.

if you have nav, you can change the configuration in the settings screen.

There was a way to change it...I saw it in the Users Manual when I was looking for the garage door opener instructions.

I think the only way to change your display from mph to km's is to bring it into the dealer. The owners manual shows a 'dealer' icon beside this option also.
I was looking to change my L/100 Km's to MPG but im now used to seeing/understanding the default.

Dealer change makes it sound like it would take the dealer to change it back. Pity.
