NOTE: In almost all cases, the temperature does not actually need adjustment. The customer is typically unaware that there is damping logic deliberately built into the temperature reading to avoid temperature spikes due to the hot pavement, or heat from the vehicle in front of you. The damping logic causes sluggishness that the customer interprets as inaccuracy.
