dures are signaled audib ly and ind icated by

.&_ WARNING

that road surfaces, especially br idges
and overpasses, could be ice covered and
slippery even at an outside temperature

().
- Always remember, even if the "snow-
f lake" symbo l (ice warning) does not ap-
pear in the display, black ice could be on
the road .
- Always reduce your speed and drive with
special care in cold weathe r cond it ions
when t he chance of encounter ing icy
road surfaces increases.
@ Tips
- If the vehicle is stationary, or if you are
dr iving at a very low speed, the tempera-
t ure shown in the display m ight be
slightly high er than t he actua l outside
tempe ratu re. This is caused by the heat
being radiat ed from t he engine.
- On vehicles with Audi Navigat ion sys-
tem*, the displays may differ from t heir
normal appearance during navigation.
