If a traffic sign that is relevant to your vehicle is
passed, the display of the speed limits is upda-
ted.
Traffic signs with a restriction indicated by an
additional sign (e.g. in wet conditions) are also
shown.
The traffic signs are only displayed with the
restrictions if:
The regulation must be observed with the
R
restriction, or
Traffic Sign Assist is unable to determine
R
whether the restriction applies

maximum permitted speed from any of the avail-
able sources, no speed limit is displayed in the
instrument cluster either.

tries. In this case, symbol : is shown in the

or temporarily unavailable if the information in
the digital street map of the navigation system is
incorrect or out of date.

Blind Spot Assist
General notes
Blind Spot Assist monitors the areas on either
side of the vehicle that are not visible to the
driver with two lateral, rear-facing radar sen-
sors. A warning display in the exterior mirrors
draws your attention to vehicles detected in the
monitored area. If you then switch on the cor-
responding turn signal to change lane, you will
also receive an optical and audible warning.
Blind Spot Assist supports you from a speed of
approximately 20 mph (30 km/h).
