A
WARNING
-
-
- Never rely exclusively on the outside
temperature display to determine if a
road surface is icy or not. Keep in mind
that road surfaces, especiall y br idges
and overpasses, could be ice covered and
slippery even at an outside temperature
above 41 °F (+5 °C).
- Always remember, even if the "snow-
flake" symbol (ice warning) does not ap-
pear in the disp lay, black ice could be on
the road.
- Always reduce your speed and drive with
special care in cold weather cond itions
when the chance of encountering icy
road surfaces increases.

Tips
If
the vehicle is stationary, or if you are
driving at a very low speed, the tempera-
ture shown in the display might be slight ly
higher than the actual outs ide tempera-
ture. This i.s caused by the heat being radi-
ated from the engine .
