Tiredness Detection; Take A Break) - Seat Alhambra Owner's Manual

CAUTION
Failure to heed the control lamps and text
messages when they appear may result in
vehicle faults.
Operation mode
Sign Assist does not work in all countries. This
must be taken into account when travelling
abroad.
Display of traffic signs
Speed limits or overtaking prohibitions to-
gether with the corresponding additional
signs are shown on the instrument panel dis-
›››
play Fig. 276. Depending on the naviga-
tion system installed in the vehicle, traffic
signs will be shown as above and also in the
navigation system's map display.
When Sign Assist is connected, the vehicle re-
cords the traffic signs with a camera in the
base of the interior rear vision mirror. After
checking and evaluating the information from
the camera, the navigation system and the
current vehicle data, up to three valid traffic
signs are displayed in conjunction with the
corresponding additional signs. The traffic
sign that is currently valid for the driver is
shown first, in the left side of the screen. A
traffic sign of only limited validity,
e.g. 90 km/h (56 mph) is shown second, to-

Driving
gether with the additional sign "if the road is
wet". If the vehicle's rain sensor detects rain
during travel, the traffic sign valid at this mo-
ment will move to the first position along the
additional sign "if the road is wet".
The permanent display on the instrument
panel screen is shown as you pass the real
traffic signs. The signs for entering and leav-
ing towns activate the display of the usual
speed limits for that country on roads in
populated areas and national highways,
even if the speed is not limited by an actual
traffic sign.
The end of a prohibition or limitation is not
displayed. If you exceed the speed limits
shown, a warning will not appear. The system
does not detect areas with little traffic. The
current legal provisions apply.

Tiredness detection (recom-
mendation to take a break)
Introduction
WARNING
Do not let the extra convenience afforded
by the tiredness detection function tempt
you into taking any risks when driving.
When making long trips, conveniently long
breaks must be taken.
The driver is responsible for determining
●
their capacity to drive.
Never drive when tired.
●
The system does not always detect the
●
tiredness of the driver. Please read the in-
formation provided in the section
›››
page 297, Limited operation.
In some situations the system may incor-
●
rectly interpret an intended manoeuvre as
a sign of tiredness of the driver.
In the event of the an episode called "mi-
●
crosleep" at the wheel, a strong warning is
not in place!
Observe the indications on the display of
●
the instrument panel and act in accord-
ance with them.
