When the outside temperature is below +4°C

risk of freezing) is also displayed. At first, this
symbol flashes and then it remains lit until

When the vehicle is at a standstill or when
travelling at very low speeds, the tempera-
ture displayed may be higher than the true outside temperature as a result of the heat
produced b
y the engine.
The temperatures measured range from
-40°C to +50°C (-40°F to +122°F).
Gear-change indicator Fig. 45

means that you are already in the most eco-
nomical gear.

choose the correct gear (for instance when
overtaking, driving up a steep gradient or
towing a trailer). Note
