changing temperature display units

I suspect that it is like mph/kph - factory-configured according to country of delivery

 

Interesting - manual says "Displays the outside temperature within the range of -40°C (-40°F) to 50°C (122°F)". With MPH, MPG etc, it doesn't mention the alternative.

Though - not quite relevant - the Australian Manual refers to some non-Australian terminology, particularly calling fuel "Gasoline" - which isn't a term ever used here. Similarly, our bonnet is referred to as a Hood - ie Robin Hood? And "Reversing Lights" are called "Back-up lights" It makes it difficult to find things in the INDEX.

 

It's our evil plot to make the world speak 'mercian.

 

On 4th gen I believe you can't change mph to kph, or vice versa. This seems a major stumble. Emails to Toyota have gotten responses along the lines of "bring along a conversion chart".

 

Maybe it is a feature for North America where both could be needed, but I don't seem to have the option. Can you describe where to find it?

 

Maybe the vehicles that default to mph (and mpg) can be switched to kph, but not the inverse, ie: metric vehicles have no mph option??

I'd love to be proved wrong, it's just this topic came up a few months back, and the consensus was it couldn't be done. Third gen can switch between mph and kph, btw. And at least on my 2010 sans Multi Function Display, there's a physical button, expressly for the switch.

 

Oh eff: I'm having an Alzheimer's moment, thinking about speed units, mph vs kmh, not the temperature units, Fahrenheit vs Celsius. On 3rd gen the former can be changed, not the latter. And on 4th gen I believe the former (mph/kph) can't be changed? That seems a disaster...

 

Yes, we've been through this before. Apparently, the conversion button appears only if you also have the option of a heads-up display. To quote the from famous Abbott & Costello routine:
"Why?"
"I Don't Know."

 

I have HUD, but still cant find the conversion button. Where should I look?

 

In the US manual, the discussion of this is on page 140. The PDF version has no qualification, but the printed manual notes that it is not always available. It was a topic of discussion in early August on this thread. It appears after the HUD on/off toggle, so I thought it might possibly be present only when the HUD was present. Others have postulated that it appears on recently constructed cars, but not those from earlier in the run. We don't have a definite resolution.

 

On the UK model it's on the MFD, scroll along to the settings menu and scroll down 3 pages.
