Get Advanced Road Sign Display Guide for Volkswagen ID.3 4 Door First Generation (2019-2025)

Introduction

Fig. 1 In the instrument cluster display: Advanced Road

Sign Display symbol.

The Advanced Road Sign Display detects speed limits, no-overtaking zones and selected hazard signs and informs

the driver if the permissible maximum speed is exceeded.

Using a camera at the base of your interior rearview mirror, the Advanced Road Sign Display detects standardized

road signs and informs you about speed restrictions, no-passing zones and selected hazard signs. Within the system

limitations, the Dynamic Road Sign Display of the Advanced Road Sign Display also displays an additional sign to warn

of temporary restrictions, for example. The system may also continue to display the valid speed limit on roads

without signs.

If the maximum speed limit is exceeded, the speed warning of the Advanced Road Sign Display visually informs you

on the instrument cluster display with a blinking speed limit detected by the system and, depending on the settings, a

warning tone → Warning Levels of the Speed Warning.

Dynamic Road Sign Display

Fig. 2 In the instrument cluster display: displays of the

Dynamic Road Sign Display with a generic additional sign

(general example).

After checking and evaluating the information from the camera, the Infotainment system, and the current vehicle

data, the Dynamic Road Sign Display function displays up to two valid traffic signs and a generic additional sign

→ fig. 2:

1st position:

The road sign that is currently valid is shown on the left side of the display, for example a speed limi1t 30 km/h

(80 mph).

2nd position:

Another road sign can be displayed in the second position, such as a hazard sign.

Additional signs:

A recognized additional sign, e.g. for a time restriction, is displayed under the applicable traffic sign. Depending

on the system, a generic additional sign is displayed instead of the actually recognized additional sign.

Depending on the vehicle equipment, the applicable traffic sign in the head-up display is supplemented by the

generic additional sign.

The hazard sign display is not available in all countries, and the system may not able to detect every hazard sign.

When driving on highways or two-lane expressways in Germany, the Dynamic Road Sign Display also displays the

road sign for the lifting of all road restrictions, in addition to the speed limits and passing restrictions. In all other

countries, the valid speed limit is displayed instead.

The road signs detected by the Dynamic Road Sign Display are shown in the display of the instrument cluster.

Depending on the Infotainment system installed in the vehicle, the road signs may also be displayed there.

Depending on the equipment, a display may also appear in the head-up display.

WARNING

The Advanced Road Sign Display is not a replacement for the driver's attention and works only within the system

limitations. This means that the Advanced Road Sign Display cannot detect all road signs and may not react, or may

react with a delay or in a way that is not desired. Driving recommendations and road signs displayed in the Dynamic

Road Sign Display may differ from the actual traffic situation.

● Observe the system limitations (→ Advanced Road Sign Display).

● Keep the navigation data up to date.

● Always stay attentive and do not rely solely on the system. The driver is always responsible for control of the

vehicle.

● Traffic signs on the roads and traffic regulations must always take precedence over driving recommendations and

displays from the Dynamic Road Sign Display function.

● Always adapt your speed and driving style to the visibility, weather, road and traffic conditions.

● Pay attention to indicators in the instrument cluster display and respond to the prompts accordingly (→ Advanced

Road Sign Display).
