Controls in detail Instrument cluster Outside temperature indicator Warning! Setting clock G Hours Pull out the right knob 5 in the instrument cluster ( page 20) and turn it counterclockwise. Minutes Pull out the right knob 5 in the instrument cluster and turn it clockwise. The outside temperature indicator is not designed to serve as an ice-warning device and is therefore unsuitable for that purpose. Indicated temperatures just above the freezing point do not guarantee that the road surface is free of ice. The road may still be icy, especially in wooded areas or on bridges. i To adjust the time by a single hour or a few minutes, turn knob 5 just a few degrees in the direction indicated for hours or minutes. When moving the vehicle into colder ambient temperatures (e.g. when leaving your garage), you will notice a delay before the lower temperature is displayed. A delay also occurs when ambient temperatures rise. This prevents inaccurate temperature indications caused by heat radiated from the engine during idling or slow driving. 90
