AFAIK.... number 1 resets its self every time u turn the ignition off, where as number 2 doesnt.

so basically, number 1 is what u have done (time, distance, average speed, mpg, etc) since u turned the car on.

and number 2 is what you have done since u manually resetted it yourself (by holding the switch to the right hand '0' button)

i think....  :undecided:  :tongue:
