1) U.S.-spec. models
2) Except U.S.-spec. models

When the outside temperature drops to 378F (38C) or lower, the temperature indication flashes to show that the road surface may be frozen.

If the outside temperature drops to 378F (38C) or lower while the display is giving an indication other than the outside temperature, the display switches to the outside temperature indication and flashes for 5 seconds before returning to its original indication.

If the display is already indicating an outside temperature of 378F (38C) or lower when the ignition switch is turned to the “ON” position, the indication does not flash.

NOTE

The outside temperature indication may differ from the actual outside temperature. The road surface freeze warning indication should be treated only as a guide. Be sure to check the condition of the road surface before driving.
