ml dash display
i have just took delivery of a 2014 ml350 blutec, first class motor.
i have a question,on the dash display it has a kph display on the top line of the dash display,is there any way i can change this to mph.
another think is i have no outside temp display, can this be turned on?
i know that the car is very new and the fuel consumption will improve overtime,but what can i expect from it.

All of these options can be changed in your display screen settings. Start your car and use the < > arrows on your steering wheel to mess with the center display settings. It should be under something with the word "Settings" in it towards the end of the list.

dash stettings
I've had a look in the stings menu, there is nothing here that will change the kpm.
when I have bee searching around I have found that the temperature is not on the dash in the UK.
I would like to find out how to activate it.
the outside temp normally lives where they have put the kmh on the dash.
if I could find the right buttons to press I think the settings I am after will be there, somewhere, I hope.

temp can be displayed and always shown there but kph cannot be changed to mph..I think dealer must do that and you can't have both speed measurements

do you know how i can activate the temp, there is no option for in in the settings menu.
i cannot believe that Mercedes would think that kph on a uk vehicle was a good idea, far better having a outside temp gauge.

I was curious so I looked up the section in the UK version of the manual. Sure enough, there's a disclaimer. 
Selecting the permanent display function
Vehicles for the United Kingdom: this function is unavailable.
You can determine whether the multifunction display permanently shows your speed or the outside temperature.

Looks like you don't have outside temperature as an option in the UK:
"Selecting the permanent display function

what a load, why did they not put a speed face on with mph and kmh, that would do, its been like that with all my other cars.
Or well, ce la vie, as they say in France.

i mean European Continent, Great Briton is on island, even though, we don't use KPH we still use MPH and a lot of people still use ft and in, gallons etc, not the decimal stuff.
