Welcome to my part of the world. I wish I could turn this feature off. My cars are never garaged so EVERY time I start the car form December to April this stupid warning chime and yellow snowflake greet me. Believe me it gets annoying. If the temp goes below -3C it stops.
My retired 2003 325 did the same thing.

In the beginning, I often was startled and afraid that it would be another error message.

Hahaha, I'm the same way. I still jump when I hear it shortly after leaving the garage. It's like when we used to wear beepers and always jumped whenever the darn things went off.

I always thought it was a reminder of the presence of fractals in the world around us.

That bloody ding is always going off, its when it reaches +3.0 Deg Celsius, then again at 1.0, then 0. Bit of a pain like, but i suppose its there for a reason, telling me its gonna be abit slippery on the roads, yet again... Good old british weather!
