Trip Computer Question

Does anyone's trip computer besides mine sound a warning and flash at 37*F. I've noticed this for the last several weeks as it's been colder around here.

Supposed to do that - warns of possible ice accumulation on bridges and overpasses. I forget which page it's explained in the Owner's Manual.

It also does it at 3ºC.

Most newer cars have such a "hey-it's-cold-out" warning.

37-32*5/9=2.77777777 maybe we need decimal points on our displays.
When you change the auto climate control to C does it have 1 degree increments?

I fear the wrath of the rabid killer snowflake that attacks when it is below 37.
