Driving

The automatic reading of road signs is a

driving assistance system and does not

always display speed limits correctly.

The speed limit signs present on the road

always take priority over the display by the

system.

The system cannot in any circumstances

replace the need for vigilance on the part

of the driver.

The driver must observe the driving

regulations and must adapt the speed of

the vehicle to suit the weather and traffic.

The system may not display the speed

limit if it does not detect a speed limit sign

within a preset period.

menu.

You should update your navigation

mapping regularly in order to receive

accurate speed limit information from the

system.

Speed Limit recognition

and recommendation

The system is designed to detect signs

that conform to the Vienna Convention on

road signs.

This function is a driving aid that cannot,

in any circumstances, replace the driver’s

own vigilance nor compliance with the

highway code.

The actual signs always take priority over

the display by the system.

The speed limit units (mph or km/h)

depend on the country you are driving in.

This should be taken into account in order

to observe the speed limit.

For the system to operate correctly when

you change country, the units for speed in

the instrument panel must be those for the

country you are driving in.

To maintain correct operation of the

system: regularly clean the area in front of

the camera.

The internal surface of the windscreen can

also become misted around the camera.

In humid and cold weather, demist the

windscreen regularly.

The signs must comply with the Vienna

Convention on road signs.

This system allows the maximum authorised

speed to be displayed in the instrument panel,

according to the speed limits in the country in

which you are driving, using:
