What does the snowflake inside a triangle indicate?
1 Answers
When a snowflake icon appears on the car dashboard, it indicates a frost warning. Below is an introduction to the snowflake icon on the car dashboard: The appearance of the snowflake icon indicates that the outside temperature is relatively low, reminding the driver to drive cautiously and be aware of frost. Meaning of the snowflake icon: It serves as a warning and does not indicate a vehicle malfunction. Generally, the snowflake light on the dashboard is yellow when the temperature is between 0-4°C and turns red when the temperature is below 0°C. It is important to note that in cold weather, the vehicle should be fully warmed up before driving to avoid increased engine wear. The meaning of the triangle with a snowflake warning light: This warning light also indicates that the outside temperature is low, primarily serving as a reminder. Some vehicle models may accompany this with a "beeping" sound. In winter, if the road is icy, it is best to maintain a speed of 20-30 km/h to prevent the car from skidding. On icy roads, braking performance is only one-fourth of that on normal roads, so the braking distance becomes longer. In such conditions, engine braking should be used appropriately to control the vehicle. Snow Mode: Snow Mode is a control mode of the car's automatic transmission, which can be understood as an automated program that helps you better control the car in snowy conditions. Its main function is to limit the engine's torque output and the transmission's gear ratio, thereby reducing the likelihood of the car skidding while driving in snowy conditions.
