Miles/Gallon & Km/Litre

I had some work done on my 2000 ML430 and the battery had to be disconected.

After reconecting th Battery the milage meter that sits on the roof near the rear view mirror started to read Miles/Gallon instead of KM/Litre like it used to.
I tried to reset it but it stays in miles/gallon and it won't go back to KM/Litre.

How do you change it back to KM/Litre??

You press the mode button a few times and once you are on the last screen before it turns off when it indicates just "mi" hit reset. It will then display km.
