			Setting the warning levels is as per the instructions included with the gauges, recorded here for reference when I inevitably lose the instructions.

			1. Mute selecter: Set key hold after power on

			2. Peak selecter:
			View - Normal mode --> SET KEY --> Peak mode --> SET KEY --> Normal mode
			Reset - Normal mode --> SET KEY --> Peak mode --> HOLD SET KEY 3 SEC --> Clear peak --> PEAK LED FLASH --> Normal mode

			3. Warning set selecter:
			Slow - Normal mode --> HOLD SET KEY 5 SEC --> Warning set mode / pointer LED flash --> SET KEY --> Pointer move slowly --> OVER 5 SEC --> Normal mode
			Quick - Normal mode --> HOLD SET KEY 5 SEC --> Warning set mode / pointer LED flash --> HOLD SET KEY --> Pointer move quickly --> OVER 5 SEC --> Normal mode


			No calibration necessary

			S2 135R with PRRT fitted reads:
			- ~6 bar from cold (ambient temp 20C / June / summer time)
			- 5 bar when warm and driving to red line / limiter
			- 4.5 bar when driving at easy pace
			- 1.8 bar idle at warm

			- 100C motorway / enthusiastic A/B-road driving
			- 90C easy pace driving
			- no track data yet


			Note: Temperature warning level is a HIGH value (e.g. 110C), pressure warning is a LOW value (e.g. 1 bar)
