Traffic Sign Assist
Function of Traffic Sign Assist
%
Traffic Sign Assist is not available in all coun‐
tries.
Traffic Sign Assist detects traffic signs with multi‐
function camera 1. It assists you by displaying
detected speed limits and overtaking restrictions
and warning signs in the instrument cluster.
Traffic Sign Assist uses the map data stored in
iPPC and can, in the following situations, update
the display without having detected a traffic sign:
When the vehicle changes roads, e.g. motor‐
R
way exit or slip road.
When the map indicates an updated limit
R
speed.
%
In countries without map data, the function is
restricted.
Beside the information in the map, legally appli‐
cable limit speeds of the respective country are
taken into account.
The camera also detects traffic signs with a
restriction indicated by an additional sign (e.g. in
wet conditions). These are taken into account in
the display of the limit speed or displayed sepa‐
rately, if they cannot be matched.
Speed limits on slip roads
Speed limits which are detected on slip roads are
displayed in the Instrument Display with an addi‐
tional arrow symbol pointing to the right. The
additional symbol is displayed even if the actual
traffic sign does not have an additional arrow
pointing to the right.
The permissible speed limit of the road you are
currently driving on is shown at the same time on
the left of the Instrument Display.
Warning when the maximum permissible
speed is exceeded
The system can warn you if you unintentionally
exceed the maximum permissible speed. To do
this, the system issues a visual warning in the
instrument cluster. The traffic sign lights up red.
