Function

First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 149.
Traffic sign recognition (hereinafter referred to only as system) allows traffic
signs with maximum speeds/no overtaking recognised by the system to be
shown in the instrument cluster display.
Additional signs, such as 'when wet' or signs which only apply for a limited time
can also be displayed.
The system works on the basis of the data captured by the camera and is only
able to show traffic signs which are in the camera's viewing range
Data from the camera can be supplemented by information from the Infotainment
Navigation. This is the reason why traffic signs with maximum speeds can also be
shown on sections of roads which do not have any traffic signs.
