Ice warning
with on-board computer
OE
Ice-crystal symbol appears
on the display.

3 °C.
The ice warning does not
mean that there is no risk
of black ice forming at measured
temperatures above 3 °C.
Always take extra care when
temperatures are low; remember
that the danger of black ice form-
ing is particularly high on bridges
and where the road is in shade.
Ride carefully and think well
ahead.
