5°F (3°C) below
the setting on the display.
Outside Temperature: This sensor is
on the right side of the upper radiator
support in the grille opening. This is
what you usually see on the display.
If the outside temperature goes up,
the displayed temperature will not
change until:
Vehicle speed is above 25 mph
(40 kmh) for at least 3 minutes,
or
Vehicle speed is above 45 mph
(72
km/h) for 1 1/2 minutes.
