2021 Kia Soul LX 6-speed stick
Also, is this car manual? If so, you need to be sure to keep the revs under 3K for the first thousand miles and change the oil at 1K miles as the new gears will create lots of grit and metal dust that gets into the oil as they break in. After that, change the gear oil at 6 months and then forget about it. Since automatics don't make gear-to-gear contact in the same way, just forget about it and drive it - it'll be fine.
You do realize that at 20 miles to empty means that you have about a half gallon of gas left in your tank sloshing around. So drive 5 more miles and then go up and down hills and I guess it would read empty. I think Hummers are more accurate because when they say 20 miles left you still have 3 gallons left
Half a gallon ! Come on guys, get sensible. Use the technology for it's intended purpose - an early warning device - not an absolute measuring device. If it annoys you, turn it off, (presumably you can on a Fiesta ? You certainly can on my Volvo).

None of this would be an issue if Ford would put real door lock switches on the doors, but they decided cheaping out and putting a button in the middle of the dash was the way to go.
Two-stage unlock disable
Disabling two-stage unlock allows all vehicle doors to unlock
simultaneously.
Two-stage unlocking may be disabled or re-enabled by simultaneously
pressing the and controls on the transmitter for three seconds.
The park lamps will illuminate twice to indicate that two-stage unlock
was enabled or disabled.
My owner manual (2011) is slightly different, having this information on page 142. That aside, this toggle you cited above is presented in the manual from the context of the remote entry feature (the FOB / intelligent access key). It does not discuss this from the perspective of the door button at all.
Since the door button doesn't have a two-stage feature (e.g., press the door button twice w/in three seconds results in unlocking the driver door, then locking all doors), I did not connect the two (two-stage on the remote vs. functioning of the door button) in any way. So, while my doubt-meter was pointing toward high as I attempted this toggle, when the remotes' two-stage is toggled off (allowing one press of the remote to unlock all doors), the door button also unlocks all the doors simultaneously from the driver door button!
I'm thrilled! Thank you so much for your help.
