Default Dumb escos question

Where the clock is it has two lights above it. Now normally when i start the car up an orange light is on but tonight a red one came on and after a while it went off and the orange one came on.

Is this to do with the outside temperature?

Sorry.

Red means its freezing outside.0 degrees.

yellow is below 4 degrees

Something like that.

If you press the single button it will tell you the temp too.

Just to confirm that the readings are:

Orange = 4degrees above freezing (Black ice danger)
Red = Freezing or below.
