The snowflake symbols appear when the external temperature drops below a certain amount normally when it is close to freezing or below freezing. Generally it is to warn you that icy road conditions could be present.
Does this only appear on certain models or years? I don’t think I’ve ever seen it on my ā€˜21 Job 1 even though it should’ve gotten cold enough. I’m assuming freezing is cold enough.

Should be on all of them.

This is from page 129 in my '23 model manual but I'm pretty sure it was on my '21 as well:

That’s what I thought. I think I remember seeing it in manual too. Huh. Maybe the last two winters weren’t as cold as I remember.

Itā€˜s disabled on 2021 Job 1 cars. But it can be enabled with FORScan if you want it for some strange reason.

I don’t care that much. I’m already aware of when it’s cold. ?

Any idea why it’s disabled?

I believe it didn’t exist when Job 1 cars came out. It was added later in an IPC update, but the as-built config was never changed to enable it.

Thanks for all the answers to my question, but I was just wondering, if I can marry my Mach-e to another car, would it no longer being an unbride??
This is it - the king of all dad jokes. I bow...

My car recently upgraded its startup to 6.2, and for the first time I noticed the symbol on the driver screen both in the left and right hand corner. I have no idea what it is, so if somebody has any insight it would be appreciated.

It means that your car has been hit by Elsa's snow beam!

Don’t know why we need an unbridle graphic. You can tell by the responsiveness of the accelerator. I’d rather have the brake coach.

I have a 21', and unless it's been disabled; I get a "white" snowflake when it drops below 40 degrees. Never seen it orange and I drive exclusively in Unbridle(d).

btw. that was the single worst Dad Joke, on this forum :(
