Setting up a second car for my SGII?

Does anyone know how to set up a different car for my SGII?

Going on a trip in my GF's Kia Rio and figured it would be good to bring the SGII with us just cuz

Checked her fluids and her radiator fluid was SUPER LOW
Glad I remember to check

Thanks

You have to manually reset the settings from car to car unfortunately.

The Scan Gauge only has the capability of storing information for 1 vehicle at a time so you have to go completely through the set up proceedure each time you use it in a different car.

Well thats a stinker, luckily my SGII was calibrated perfect for my neon as soon as I got It, Im sure it will be close for the kia also.... It says on the package the real calibration issues is with diesels right?

Write down the Engine Size, Speed, Tank Size, Offset, Cutoff for your neon.

Then set those items for the Rio. If you don't know about certain ones (eg speed), just set them to zero or default. Do a fillup procedure to clear any data from the other car. I would record these settings for a future date, as well.

When you get back, do the opposite to set it back to yours. Keep the same offset until the 2nd fill, since the first one will be a partial tank.
