outside temperature will appear in the disp lay only after you have
moved the selector lever into a gear (for example, when you shift
into

The snowflake symbo l also appears when the outside temperature
is between 41 °F (+5 °Cl and 23 °F (-5 °Cl. This is to warn you, the
driver, to be extra cautious because the road surfaces may be
ic y. If
the vehicle is at a standstill, or if you are driving at a very low speed,
the tempe rature shown in the display might be s lightly higher than
the actual outside temperature. This is caused by the heat being
radiated from the engine.
Remember, your vehicle is equipped with air conditioning and if
you change the display from °F (Fahrenheit) to °C (Centigrade), then
the outside temperature will automatically be displayed in °C (Centi -
grade)~ page 128. ...

& WARNING
• Never rely exclusively on the outside temperature display to
determine if a road surface is icy or not. Keep in mind that road
surfaces, especially bridges and overpasses, could be ice covered
and slippery even at an outside temperature above 41 °F
1+5 °Cl.
• Always remember, even if the "snowflake" symbol lice
warning) does not appear in the display, black ice could be on the
road .
• Always reduce your speed and drive with special care in cold
weather conditions when the chance of encountering icy road
surfaces increases.
[ i ] Tips
When using the navigation system feature "Destination", the
outside temperature is also displayed.•
Miles (kilometers) to empty
The miles (kilometers) to empty indication is a valuable
aid to schedule the refueling stops on a trip.
Fig . 13 Center display:
miles (kilometers) to
empty
Th is feature shows you the estimated range in miles (kilometers)
:::::, fig. 13 until the tank runs dry. This feature calculates how far you
could drive with the amount of fuel left in your fuel tank while
driving under the current driving conditions. The remaining
distance is recalculated every
6 miles (10 km).
While calculating the miles (kilometers) to empty, the system also
calculates your fuel consumption over the last
18 miles (30 km).
Remember:
-the more economica lly you drive, the further you can
go.•
