DRIVER SUPPORT  
Road Sign Information*  
WARNING  
The Road Sign Information (RSI76) function  
can help the driver observe speed-related  
road signs.  
The function is supplementary driver  
support intended to facilitate driving  
and help make it safer – it cannot han-  
dle all situations in all traffic, weather  
and road conditions.  
The driver is advised to read all sec-  
tions in the Owner's Manual about this  
function to learn of its limitations,  
which the driver must be aware of  
before using the function.  
Driver support functions are not a sub-  
stitute for the driver's attention and  
judgment. The driver is always respon-  
sible for ensuring the vehicle is driven  
in a safe manner, at the appropriate  
speed, with an appropriate distance to  
other vehicles, and in accordance with  
current traffic rules and regulations.  
Examples of signs that can be detected77  
.
If the vehicle passes a speed limit sign, it will  
be displayed in the instrument panel and the  
head-up display*.

DRIVER SUPPORT  
The driver can be alerted if the vehicle is  
exceeding a detected speed limit and is  
approaching a speed camera.  
Road Sign Information and Sensus  
Speed limit and speed camera  
warnings from Road Sign  
Information*  
There are sub-functions for Road Sign Infor-  
mation (RSI82) that can alert the driver if the  
speed limit has been exceeded or if there are  
speed cameras nearby.  
Navigation*  
If the vehicle is equipped with Sensus  
Navigation*, speed-related information will be  
provided in the following situations:  
Speed Limit Warning warns the driver if the  
vehicle's speed has exceeded the applicable  
speed limit or the preset Speed Limiter speed.  
The warning will be repeated once after  
about 1 minute in that speed limit area if the  
driver does not slow down.  
In cases where the speed limit is given  
indirectly, e.g. signs for highways or other  
major roads.  
If a previously detected speed sign is  
deemed to be no longer valid and no new  
sign has been passed.  
A new warning and message indicating that  
the speed limit has been exceeded will be pro-  
vided only when the vehicle has entered a  
new/different speed limit area.  
In certain markets, the Road Sign Informa-  
tion* function is only available in combina-  
tion with Sensus Navigation*.  
For an audible alert to be provided if the  
speed is exceeded, the Speed Limit  
Warning function must be activated and  
the Road Sign Audio Warning sub-func-  
tion must be On. Audible alerts are provi-  
ded if the vehicle's speed exceeds the  
speed displayed by Road Sign Information  
in the instrument panel.  
Example of speed camera and speed limit informa-  
tion in the instrument panel.  
If a downloaded third-party app is used for  
navigation, there is no support for speed-  
related information.  
Speed Limit Warning  
When Speed Warning is acti-  
vated, the symbol for the cur-  
rent speed limit in the instru-  
ment panel83 will flash tem-  
porarily if that speed is excee-  
ded.
