I need a little help. This is for a Instruction for Use (IFU). Where I come from everything is expressed in US units, even in Spanish but this is not for the US. Should I leave it like that or it is customary to express it in some other units (SI system) and if so I would appreciate the help.
Thanks in advance!

For a strictly SI unit, use Pascals (or KPa, MPa) i.e. 2 757 903 Pascal = 2,758 KPa = 2.758 MPa (using English decimal notation).

: Según la RAE, habitualmente se usa el punto en aprox. el 50 % de los países del mundo hispánico. Además, la misma RAE dice: "Con el fin de promover un proceso tendiente a la unificación, se recomienda el uso del punto como separador de los decimales".
