Driving information
– If the permitted speed limit is exceeded
The following messages may appear, depending
on the vehicle equipment:
– If driving below a certain speed limit
– If the next traffic light is less than approximate-
ly 100 feet (30 m) away
Traffic sign recognition: currently limited.
See owner's manual
– If the estimated wait time at a red light is less
than four seconds
This message appears if navigation system data
is not available, for example on newly-construct-
ed roads. The speed limit display will be tempo-
rarily limited, which increases the risk of an incor-
rect display.
– If there is no traffic light data available
– If emergency response vehicles or public transit
systems are active
– If traffic lights are in construction zones or be-
ing serviced
No traffic sign information available
– If there are warnings from the camera-based
traffic sign recognition*
Depending on the area, there is no valid naviga-
tion data and no speed limits were detected. This
may also appear if there is a recommended
speed, but no speed limit (for example when
driving on and off the expressway).
– If the camera-based traffic sign recognition* is
malfunctioning or not available
– If the data connection has been interrupted
– If data transmission is deactivated in the priva-
cy settings

WARNING
– When traffic light information is shown, al-
so always pay attention to the traffic situa-
tion, the distance to other vehicles, and the
area around the vehicle. The driver is always
responsible for assessing the traffic situa-
tion.
– Always adapt your speed to the current
weather, road and traffic conditions. The dis-
played information must never cause you to
ignore legal traffic regulations and pose a
safety risk.

play
The traffic light information gives you a speed
recommendation in order to reach the next traf-
fic light when it is green 1 , or it informs you of
the wait time at the next red light 2 . Once traf-
fic light data is available, the traffic light infor-
mation will be displayed in the instrument clus-
ter and in the head-up display*. If the vehicle is in
an area with traffic light information but cannot
receive a traffic light signal, then a gray traffic
light symbol will be displayed 3 .
– Regardless of the traffic light information,
you should always monitor your speed using
the speedometer and make sure you are ad-
hering to the legal speed limit.
– The traffic light information does not adjust
your vehicle's speed to the speed recom-
mendation shown in the display.
– Observe the safety precautions and note the
limitations of the assist systems, sensors,
and cameras ðpage 127 to ðpage 130.
