I haven't looked into any of this. Is there a readout somewhere that defaults to 5km and then later offers a more accurate estimate of the remaining pad life?

If so, is it a better or more effective way to go than just reviewing the pads visually and then measuring them if/when you want or need the specific remaining thickness?
