Dynamic Road Sign Display  
Introduction  
The Dynamic Road Sign Display  
detects standard road signs using a  
camera in the interior rearview mirror  
base and informs the driver of  
detected speed limits and passing  
restrictions. Within the system limits,  
the system also displays an additional  
sign to indicate special restrictions. The  
system may also continue to display  
the valid speed limit on roads without  
signs.  
The traffic signs recorded by the Dynamic Road Sign Display are shown in the display of the Volkswagen Digital Cockpit.  
Depending on the Infotainment system installed in the vehicle, the road signs may also be displayed there.  
Dynamic Road Sign Display is always active when the ignition is started.

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. 20:  
1st position: The road sign that is currently valid is shown on the left-hand side of the display, for example a speed limit of  
20 mph (approx. 35 km/h).  
2nd position: Another road sign can be displayed in the second position, such as a passing restriction.  
Additional signs: A recognized additional sign is displayed above the applicable traffic sign. Depending on the system, a  
generic additional sign is displayed instead of the actually recognized additional sign. The applicable traffic sign in  
the display of the instrument cluster is supplemented by the generic additional sign.  
WARNING  
The Dynamic Road Sign Display is not a replacement for the driver's attention and works only within the system  
limitations. This means that the Dynamic Road Sign Display cannot detect all road signs and may not react, or may react  
with a delay, or may react 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 Limits of the Dynamic Road Sign Display .  
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.
