A separate Owner's Manual is in vehic les that have a factory ­
installed radio, CD changer, navigation system, AUX-in connection
or mu ltifunction steering wheel. •

& WARNING (continued)
• Always remember, even if the "snowflake" symbol (ice
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
• If the vehicle is stationary , or if you are driving at a very low
speed, the temperature shown in the display might be slightly
higher than the actual outside temperature. This is caused by the
heat being radiated from the engine.
• On vehicles with S tronic, the reminders do not appear in the
display until you select a gear .
• On vehicles with Audi Navigatio n system*, the displays may
differ from their normal appearance during navigation. •
