Ice warning

If the outside temperature drops to
approx. +3

computer automatically displays the
outside temperature. An acoustic warn-
ing sounds and the display flashes for a
short time.

After issuing an ice warning, the
display returns to the previous

reading.

rule out the possibility of ice form-

ing on the road at temperatures higher
than +3

6 (377), for example on

bridges or where the road is in
shadow.
