settings 1 & 2 allow you to switch between displays.  By that I mean, 1 & 2 both display exactly the same MFA data, but give you the option of keeping one set of trip information, while resetting and using the other.

For example, setting 1 you can use for long term trip info, say what you do in a period of time, while you can switch and use setting 2 for one off trip data.

Hope that makes sense.

other way round, 1 is current trip, 2 is long term info since last reset.  holding the switch all the way towards 1 or 2 resets the data for the short or long term info depending which way you hold it
