Does anyone know how to change the dash temp read out from C to F on a '95 850 Turbo Wagon?

Thanks for any help...

I believe you push the H (hour) and M (minute) buttons at the same time and hold them in and you get several options for time as well as temperature.
Let us know what you find.

Until you get a paper manual (I suggest eBay), you can view your manual on-line here: http://new.volvocars.com/ownersdocs/199 ... 850_1.html
