Odometer
The odometer registers the total distance travelled by the vehicle.
The odometer ( trip ) shows the distance travelled since the last odometer re-
set. The last figure indicates 100 m.
Outside temperature indicator
When the outside temperature is below +4°C (+39°F), the symbol "ice crys-
tal" (warning of risk of freezing) is also displayed next to the temperature.
At first this symbol flashes and then it remains lit until the outside tempera-
ture rises above +6°C (+43°F) ⇒
When the vehicle is stationary or travelling at very low speeds, the tempera-
ture displayed may be slightly higher than the actual outside temperature
as a result of heat coming from the engine.
The temperatures measured range from -40°C to +50°C (-40°F to +122°F).

WARNING
If the warning lamps are ignored, the vehicle may stall in traffic, or may
cause accidents and severe injuries.
● Never ignore the warning lamps.
● Stop the vehicle safely as soon as possible.
● A faulty vehicle represents a risk of accident for the driver and for oth-
er road users. If necessary, switch on the hazard warning lamps and put
out the warning triangle to advise other drivers.
● Park the vehicle away from the traffic, ensuring that there are no easi-
ly inflammable materials under the vehicle which could come into contact
with the exhaust system (e.g. dry grass, fuel).
WARNING
Although the outside temperature is above freezing, some roads and
bridges may be frozen.
● At an outside temperature of above +4°C (+39°F), even when the "ice
crystal" is not visible, there may still be ice on the road.
● Never rely totally on the outside temperature indicator!
