Operating limits
The system does not take account of reduced
speed limits, especially those imposed in the
following cases:
6
sections.
– Atmospheric pollution.
– Towing.
Speed setting advance recommendations
1. Detected speed limit indication
or
2. End of speed limit indication
With Drive Assist 2.0 activated, the system
detects the next speed limit sign, displays it in
the background and proposes this new speed as
the speed setting.
– Driving with a space-saver type spare wheel
or snow chains fitted.
– Tyre repaired using the temporary puncture
repair kit.
Once memorised:
– Young drivers.
– If the speed setting is lower than the previous
one, the vehicle slows down to reach this new
speed when it gets to the sign.
– If the speed setting is higher than the previous
one, the vehicle speeds up to reach this new
speed when it passes the sign.
The system may not display the speed limit if it
does not detect a speed limit sign within a preset
period and in the following situations:
– Road signs that are obstructed, non-standard,
damaged or bent.
The system is active but is not detecting speed
limit information.
– Obsolete or incorrect maps.

Speed setting
recommendations
On detecting speed limit information, the system
displays the value.
The driver can select the speed displayed by the
Road signs recognition system as the speed
setting for the speed limiter, cruise control or
adaptive cruise control using the OK button.
If rain is detected, the system proposes a speed
setting to the driver which is lower than the
speed read/sent from the mapping system in
order to adapt to the weather conditions (e.g. on
motorways, the proposed speed is 68 mph (110
km/h) instead of 81 mph (130 km/h).
For a suggested maximum speed, the first time
that the vehicle exceeds it by more than 3 mph
(5 km/h) (e.g. 59 mph (95 km/h)), the speed is
displayed and flashes for 10 seconds (depending
on version).
