Yes. It's because it doesn't know about lean burn. It cannot, because the car's OBD-II port doesn't say anything about it. Any OBD gauge will have that problem.

If your gauge kept resetting maybe you had a defective one. I've never had that trouble in 7 years with two gauges.

The DFCO thing was fixed in a later revision.
