The currently selected driving mode is
displayed here. If you use the Geartronic
function on the automatic transmission, the
currently selected gear will be displayed.
11 Ambient temperature indicator
This display indicates the air temperature
outside your car. A "snowflake" symbol in the
text window is displayed when the temperature
is in the range of 23 - 36° F (-5 - +2° C).
