Outdoor temperature
(Frost warning)
Regardless of which function has been
selected, except Night Panel Mode, SID will
automatically display the outdoor tempera-
ture when it is between 26° and 38°F (–3°
and +3°C). This also applies if the
temperature has moved outside the range
of 21° to 43°F (–6° to +6°C) but is again
between 26° and 38°F (–3° and +3°C).
WARNING
It is strongly recommended that the SID
settings be changed only when the car is
stationary. The driver’s attention can oth-
erwise easily be distracted from the road.
SID provides the following function:
Temp. Outside temperature
D.T.E. Estimated range (distance to
empty fuel tank)
Fuel Ø Average fuel consumption
since function last reset
Dist. Distance to destination/Trip
meter
Speed Ø Average speed since function
last reset

WARNING
Remember that roads can be icy even at
temperatures of above 38°F (+3°C),
especially on bridges and stretches of
road that are sheltered from the sun.
