Warning for speed limit

P5-1519-Road Sign Information, 90 km/h symbol

The speed warning is given by the driver display symbol1 flashing when the maximum permissible speed is exceeded. The maximum permissible speed is determined by the speed limit in force, plus an optional margin that can be selected in the centre display under settings.

The speed warning alerts the driver when the applicable speed limit or stored maximum speed is exceeded. This warning is repeated once after approx. 30 seconds within one and the same speed limit zone unless the driver reduces the speed. Another warning is available only when the driver has reduced the speed by at least 5 km/h (3 mph) below the speed limit, and then exceeds it again, or when the car reaches a new area with a speed limit.

 Note

To get an acoustic warning if you exceed the required speed, the Speed Limit Warning function must be activated and the Road Sign Audio Warning subfunction must be set to On. An acoustic warning is then given if the car's speed exceeds the speed indicated by the Road Sign Information function in the driver display.

Warning for speed camera

P5-1519-Road Sign information, speed camera warning

A car equipped with Road Sign Information and map data2 can provide information on an upcoming speed camera in the driver display3.

If the car exceeds a detected speed limit with the Speed warning function activated, a speed warning is given when the car approaches a speed camera, provided that the navigation map for the area in question contains information on speed cameras.

 Note

An option is available to receive an acoustic warning for speed cameras independently of the car's speed and exceeded speed limit, even if the Road Sign Audio Warning function is deactivated.
