Climate control experts from DaimlerChrysler haven’t been particularly nice to Dr. Oscar. Recently, for example, they raised his temperature significantly by pointing a heater at his head for half an hour. On another occasion, it looked like they were trying to put Dr. Oscar into deep-freeze hibernation by exposing him to a temperature of minus 20 degrees Celsius. Dr. Oscar is a tough customer, though - and he doesn’t hold any grudges about the tortures he’s been put through. He always remains calm and cool - which isn’t surprising, given that Dr. Oscar is a test dummy. Still, he’s anything but stupid, and he’s also remarkably sensitive (see box „Dr. Oscar’s inner values“).
