danger warning) appears in addition to the outside temperature display. This
symbol flashes for a few seconds and remains lit until the outside tempera-
ture rises above +6 °C (+42.8 °F).
WARNING
There could be black ice on the road surface even if the “snowflake symbol”
is not shown. For this reason you should not rely exclusively on this display
- Risk of accident!
Note
•There are different instrument panels; therefore the multifunction display
may vary.•When the vehicle is stationary or travelling at very low speeds, the
temperature displayed may be slightly higher than the actual outside temper-
ature as a result of the heat radiated from the engine.•Vehicles with a multifunction steering wheel* do not have buttons on the
windscreen wiper lever. The multifunction display can only be controlled from
the buttons on the multifunction steering wheel*.Vehicle status menu
