CLOCK AND EXTERNAL TEMPERATURE(continued)
If the electrical supply is cut
(battery disconnected, feed wire
broken, etc.), the clock must be
reset.
We advise that these settings are
not made when driving.External temperature
indicator
This information must
never be used as a detector
for ice. In effect, ice formation is
related to exposure, local
hygrometry and temperature. The
external temperature alone is not
sufficient to detect ice.For vehicles fitted with the
navigation system, refer to the
handbook supplied for information
on the special features of this
equipment.
