ment (6/7) by
1 pressing and holding down the

Ice warning If the outside temperature drops to ap-
prox. +37.5 7 (+3 6), a signal sounds
as a warning and the display flashes for
a brief period.
The warning is repeated whenever the
temperature climbs to at least +43 7
(+6 6) following the last warning and
then drops back to +37.5 7 (+3 6).
The ice warning does not alter the
fact that surface ice can form at
temperatures above +37.5 7 (+3 6),
on bridges or shaded road surfaces, for
instance.<
