    It's in the owners manual... can't remember what page. Do a search for it here and you'll find it.

    Are you starting the procedure by first selecting the odometer on the display, rather than Trip A or Trip B? It won't work otherwise.

    I apologize for doubting you. you are correct - your instructions worked perfectly.
    There are similar instructions in the manual, however it does not state to turn the vehicle OFF first. That is the trick.
    Thanks so much for your help. I printed your instructions and will keep them in the folder in the glove compartment.
