Let me understand this, you actually read the owners manual? There seems to be something amiss, if there is no mention of a warning icon in your manual and your dealer does not seem to be in this picture, how can the site help you? Can you take a picture and send it?

I know I'm years late on the response but from what I've gathered the "snowflake" light is telling you that the air temp is cold enough to have ice on the roads.

Hello,

G9TRLVRJR is correct. It means that the ambient outside temperature has dropped low enough that snow and compact ice may be present on the roadway.

Thanks,
Alex
