The display presents information and warning messages, the ambient tempe\
rature, and the clock, etc. When the
ambient temperature is between 23° and 36°F (-5° and +2°C)\
, a snowflake symbol is shown in the display. This
symbol serves as a warning for possible slippery road surfaces. Please n\
ote that this symbol does not indicate a fault
with your car. At low speeds, or when the car is not moving, the tempera\
ture readings may be slightly higher than the
actual ambient temperature.

ically prevent excessively high engines
speeds. This will be noticeable as a pronounced unevenness in engine spe\
ed.
