Introduction
The information in the memory is cancelled if the battery is
disconnected.
The speed warning function can help you keep below a
pre-set maximum speed.
Applies to vehicles: with on-board computer
The speed warning function will warn you if the vehicle exceeds the
pre-set maximum speed. The system gives an audible warning
signal if the set speed is exceeded by about 3 km/h. A warning
symbol will also appear in the display . On some models the symbol
may look slightly different.
Basic settings for the on-board computer
The basic settings for the on-board computer can be
adjusted via the sound system or MMI*.
The speed warning function has two different warning speeds,
which operate independently and serve slightly different purposes:
Speed limit warning 1
With speed limit warning 1, the maximum speed can be changed
while driving. The speed limit that has been set remains stored until
the ignition is switched off, or until it is changed or cleared.
The speed limit warning symbol for speed limit warning 1 will
appear in the display if you exceed the pre-set speed. It goes out
again if the speed is reduced below the set speed limit.

The symbol also goes out if the speed is increased to more than
about 40 km/h above the set speed for at least 10 seconds. This
cancels the speed limit that was originally set.

displayed by the on-board computer. If one of these items is
switched off, it will not appear in the display. However, the corre-
sponding figures will still be registered by the on-board computer
You are recommended to store this speed limit warning if you
always wish to be reminded of a particular speed limit. This could
be when driving in countries with general speed limits, or if you
