The odometer can be preset by the customer within the first 100 miles. Once the odometer
has more than 100 miles
the menu option will no longer be displayed. Make sure you have first calibrated the speedometer and correctly
selected the units to be either MPH or km/h first. The odometer will be set in the selected units. Once you have preset
