▌Function of Active Speed Limit Assist
If a changed speed limit is detected and the auto-
matic adoption of speed limits is switched on, this
is automatically adopted as the stored speed
( page 189). Speed limits below 12 mph
/
(20 km/h) are not accepted.
The driven speed is adjusted when the vehicle is
level with the traffic sign at the latest. In the case
of signs indicating entry into an urban area, the
speed is adapted according to the speed permit-
ted within the urban area. The speed limit display
in the driver's display is always updated when the
vehicle is level with the traffic sign.
If you are driving on German highways and there
is no speed limit, the system uses the speed
stored for a stretch of road with no speed limit as
the set speed. If you do not alter the stored speed
on a stretch of road with no speed limit, the rec-
ommended speed of 80 mph (130 km/h) is adop-
ted.
If Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC has been put
®
or if ESP
into passive mode by pressing the accelerator
pedal, only speed limits that are higher than the
set speed are adopted.
The maximum permissible speed does not take
the road condition and current weather and traffic
conditions into account. Adjust your speed
accordingly, when necessary.
Observe the notes on driving systems and your
responsibility; you may otherwise fail to recognize
dangers ( page 171).

the detection of traffic signs (
Speed limits below 12 mph (20 km/h) are not
automatically adopted by the system as the stored
speed. Temporary speed restrictions (e.g. for a
certain time or due to weather conditions) cannot
be properly detected by the system.
Adjust the speed in these situations.
