Snowflake in information screen?

I noticed the 'snowflake' on my display this morning and wondered what it was. For the record, my display read 4 deg but I had to scrape frost off the windscreen so I think it was a little cooler...

Yes, that is how the reminder appears to be programmed - when the temperature is +4C or colder, the bong occurs.

That is why here one can get the bong every time one starts the 3 everyday for about eight months a year. After awhile, while you hear it, you just donot notice it.

I do however find myself looking down on occasion just to make sure the bong was from the temperature display and not something else - in that sense, it is a bit of an annoyance.

Don't think that is something I will have to worry about.
It was a cool 29c her today, though it did get down to 16 during the night.
Roll on summer, I'm over the cold weather.

Question. Does anyone know what it means (a seach of the manual proved fruitless)

Ah, the cat's bum warning lamp.

Can be one of three things depending on sensor-trip combinations and intensity of the warning light.

• Woke cat sleeping under cooling engine
• Cat trapped inside cabin
• Ran over cat

:D:D

It sounds like Land Rover deleted the bong noise on the 2008 and newer models?

It would be interesting to hear from others, but they would not know how lucky they were, (but you do).

My wife's 2005 4Motion Passat does not bong - just gives the display warning at +4C so maybe Land Rover is learning.

I wonder if the no bong feature is something the Black Box Faultmate people can reverse program back into the earlier models. That is what is kind of unique with computerized vehicles - sometimes the upgrading can be helpful.

No bong on my 2008 D3. I thought it just meant it was cold enough to snow !!
