Driver information display
If your vehicle is stationary or if you are drivi ng at very low speeds, the
t empe ra tu re disp layed m ay be s light ly hig her t han the ac tual
temperature outside due to the heat rad iat ing from the engine .
T he unit of measurement for the temperature can be set in either °F
or in °Con the MM I* or on the radio co ntrol unit. The ou ts ide tempe r­
ature display automatically shows the unit o f measurement that has
been set. For ad ditio nal info rmation, see t he MM I* or the r adio
instruction manual.
& WARNING
• Never use the outside temperatu re display to determine if a
road surface i s ic y or not . Keep in mind that road surfaces, espe­
cially bridges and o verpasses , could be ice covered and slippery
even at an out side temperature above 41 °F (+5 °C ).
• Always remember , even if the "snowflake " symbol (ice
warning ) does not appear in the di splay, black ice could be on the
road.
• Always reduce your speed and drive with special care in cold
weathe r conditions when the chance of encountering icy road
s urfaces increa se s.
[I) Tips
• If the vehicle is s tat io nary, o r if you are d riving a t a very low speed,
the temperature shown in the disp lay might be slightly higher than
t he act ual o utside temperature. This is caused by the heat being radi­
ated from the engine. •
