The Setup Parameters include multiple
units of measure settings, including
Distance, Fuel, Temperature and Pressure.
Each is set independently of the other and
can be used in any combination.
Making changes to these settings causes
your ScanGauge to use these units when
reporting and measuring data.

Tips for Setting the Tank Size
The size will use Gallons or Liters depending on the selection you made in the Fuel Units Screen (FUEL
UNITS). If the size in the manual is not in whole units, use the next lower value. For instance, if the
capacity is 17.5 gallons, use 17 gallons.
It is dangerous to run a vehicle out of fuel and can damage the fuel pump. Do
not rely on the fuel gauge or ScanGauge at low fuel levels or low remaining
distance or time.
