    I've searched for a thread on this but haven't found one. Can the display stay in the selected mode, or does it always have to return to the engine info screen (or bar usage screen).
    I'd like for it to stay on the radio station screen for example, or the climate screen if that was the last one I selected.

    Yes, you have to set it up to stay on a selected screen. I forget without having the manual in front of me how to do it, but there is an option for it.

    I don't remember seeing this in the manual but will look again. Are you saying that you can set it up to always return to a certain screen, or that it will always stay on the last screen I selected?

    and here is the answer (found in another thread):

    Push the Setup button (located on the bottom right side of the Display Unit) - General Settings - set Auto Screen Change to Off - Save
