Setup for Metric use
You can now setup your Performance
Computer for US or Metric units, and
calculate engine power in HP, PS
(metric horsepower) or KW (kilowatts).
IMPORTANT
NOTE: Changing any of these settings
erases all saved
run results and any personal settings the user has pro-
grammed, such as vehicle weight, etc., so this configu-
ration is best done before first using the Performance
Computer.
STEP 2: Select English or Metric
• Press the START button
to go to Item 1: “Mode”
• Then press the UP and DOWN buttons
to choose your preferred Mode.
There are three options:
Mode: ENGLISH
This choice has speed in MPH,
measurements in feet and inches,
and weight in pounds.
Mode: MET+400M
This choice has speed in KPH,
measurements in cm and meters,
and weight in Kg.
This choice also replaces the conventional
1/4 mile timed run with a 400 meter timed run.
Mode: MET+1/4m
This choice has speed in KPH,
measurements in cm and meters,
and weight in Kg, but uses a U.S.
“drag strip” 1/4 mile timed run
(but with the speed displayed in kph).
STEP 3: Select Power Units
• Press the START button
to go to Item 2: “Power Units”
• Then press the UP and DOWN buttons
to choose your preferred Units.
There are three options:
Power Units : HP
Displays power as English Horsepower.
Power Units : PS
Displays power as Metric Horsepower.
Power Units : kW
Displays power as kilowatts.
STEP 4: Exit the Metric Setup
After you have chosen your preferred settings, press
the G-METER button for normal operation.
STEP 1: Enter the Metric Setup

the display reads “Metric/US config.”
