tion system map.

Operation
The system cannot always detect or cor-
●
rectly show all the traffic signs.
WARNING
The traffic sign detection is not a replacement
for driver awareness.
●
Adverse conditions of visibility, darkness,
snow, rain and fog can cause the system not
to show the traffic signs or to show them er-
roneously.
CAUTION
●
If old mapping data is used in the naviga-
tion system, this may cause the traffic signs
to be shown incorrectly.
●
In the route points mode (navigation by
route points) of the navigation system, Sign
Assist is only partly available.
