Think its described on pge 27 of owners manual - just tried the process on mine and it did what u want. Press A and B at same time, press A to switch from km/l to miles/l and then press B to set.

So is there an MPG reading or just the miles / l setting?

See pge 20 owners manual - looks like no MPG - just MPL which is easier to use to calculate fuel costs as u buy fuel in litres. To get "old money" numbers use rough calculation of MPG from ODO and multiply by 4.5 to get MPG. e.g.10 MPL = 45mpg. I'm currently running at 9MPL (40MPG) which means I am probably having too much fun - but I think its worth it

I have an app on the phone where I put the ODO and litters of fuel used at each fill-up and gives me the exact MPG for the last fill-up and historical data. So far is the most reliable way of truly knowing how much fuel I'm using.

Im my old country we use l/100km which made more sense to me but after may years of adjusting to MPG and gauging fuel efficiency after it, I sort of miss it on the CR, especially with so many features on the trip computer.
