The sensor detects the temperature outside the vehicle.

If the vehicle has been stationary, the sensor reading may be higher than the actual temperature.

When the ambient temperature is between –5 °C and +2 °C (23 °F and 36 °F), a snowflake symbol will illuminate to alert the driver of the risk of slippery conditions.

The symbol is also temporarily lit in the head-up display if the vehicle is equipped with one.

Change the measurement standard for the temperature sensor etc. via system settings in the center display's Top view.
