Outside Air Temp

Ok, this is only a small nuisance, but hopefully someone can help. I have a 2013 LX (US Specs) but I live in Germany. I have lived here so long I have actually grown used to Celsius instead of Fahrenheit. Unfortunately, it seems I cannot switch it to Celsius, which makes no sense, because I can switch mph to kmh on the speedo and the fuel economy gauge switches to l/100 instead of mpg, but the outside temp gauge stays on F. I have been through all the menus and nothing. Is this something the dealer can set internally? It seems ridiculous, as even my friend's 2000 Toyota can switch between the two. Thoughts?

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Re: Outside Air Temp

The owners manual indicates that a Canuckian market car would have had Celsius.
A US market car got Fahrenheit.
(Sedan manual, page 84)

I don't know of any way to get around that, and we don't have access to the software at the dealer level.
Call the customer assistance number? Check the Honda (USA) website?
