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.<
