Ice warning  
If the outside temperature drops to  
approx. + 37.5 7 (+ 3 6), a signal is  
sounded as a warning and the display  
flashes for a brief period. The warning is  
repeated whenever the temperature  
climbs to at least + 43 7 (+ 6 6)  
following the last warning and then  
drops back to + 37.5 7 (+ 3 6).  
The ice warning does not alter the  
fact that surface ice can form at  
temperatures above + 37.5 7 (+ 3 6),  
on bridges or shaded road surfaces, for  
instance.<
