In certain weather conditions,
temperature readings near freezing
(32°F, 0°C) could mean that ice is
forming on the road surface.

If the outside temperature is
incorrectly displayed, you can adjust
it up to

5°F in U.S. models (

3°C

in Canadian models) warmer or
cooler.

The temperature must be

stabilized before doing this
procedure.

This indicator displays the outside
temperature in Fahrenheit (U.S.
models) or Celsius (Canadian
models).

The temperature sensor is in the
front bumper. The temperature
reading can be affected by heat
reflection from the road surface,
engine heat, and the exhaust from
surrounding traffic. This can cause
an incorrect temperature reading
when your vehicle speed is under
19 mph (30 km/h). When you start
your trip, the sensor is not fully
acclimatized, therefore it may take
several minutes until the proper
temperature is displayed.

To adjust outside temperature
indicator,

Press and hold the select/reset
knob until ‘‘Oil Life’’ appears
(about 10 seconds).

Press and quickly release the
select/reset knob again, and
‘‘Outside’’ appears.

Press and hold the select/reset
knob until a numerical value
appears (about 2 seconds).

Turn the select/reset knob to the
desired temperature offset. The
possible setting are 0,
