On my car, it always shows what I was monitoring last time. ie: if I am on L/100 kph when I turn the car off, the next time when I start it - the bc will go back to that display of L/100 kph.

So... on your car it always goes back to the blank screen? Somethings not right there.

Stupid but necessary question: Are you using the same set of keys every time? That would effect this outcome.

In a nut shell its normal...

the reason being on a car with auto and or high beam assist , the display is not large enough to dispaly the gear you are in and high beam assist together with odometer...

there is a legal regulation that odometer is displayed at every key on event

to get to where you want to be, just tap the b/c button once briefly.

hope this expalins..
