Outside temperature warning
If the outside temperature drops to approx.

switches to the outside temperature display.
A signal also sounds and the display flashes for
a short time. There is an increased risk of black
ice.

been issued, the computer switches back
to its previous screen. You can have this acti-
vated/deactivated.

above 37

drive carefully on bridges and shaded roads, for
example, otherwise there is an increased risk of
