Traffic Sign Assist can detect the following addi-
tional signs

and, if necessary, analyze the rele-
vance of the restrictions using other vehicle sen-
sors:
wet conditions
R
slippery road surfaces
R
fog
R
temporary restrictions
R
exits
R
restrictions for car/trailer combinations
R
Traffic Sign Assist also uses data from the digital
street map in the navigation system. When you
leave or enter a municipality or change roads, e.g.
on a freeway exit or slip road, or after you turn at
an intersection, the display on the driver's display
can thus be updated without a traffic sign having
been detected.
Depending on vehicle equipment and the country
you are in, the system can also display speed
restrictions ahead on the driver's display and on
the head-up display. The driver's display can also
show the distance to an upcoming lower limit
speed. For this purpose, information from the digi-
tal road map of the navigation system is used. The
Assistance
menu can also display a dynamic visu-
alization of the speed limits ahead.
If Traffic Sign Assist cannot determine the cur-
rently applicable maximum permissible speed
(e.g. due to a lack of signs), the following display
appears on the driver's display:
Traffic Sign Assist is not available in all countries.
If the vehicle is in a country where Traffic Sign
Assist is not supported, this is displayed continu-
ously.

Warning when the maximum permissible speed is
exceeded
The system can warn you if you unintentionally
exceed the maximum permissible speed. To do
this, you can specify in the multimedia system by
how much the maximum permissible speed can
be exceeded before a warning is issued. You can
Driving and parking 243
set the warning to visual only (the traffic sign
flashes three times on the driver's display) or vis-
ual and acoustic, including a warning tone.
Additional functions of Traffic Sign Assist (coun-
try-specific)
Warning for no-entry signs: Traffic Sign Assist can
warn you if you drive the wrong way down a sec-
tion of road, e.g. on freeway slip roads or one-way
streets.
Warning at pedestrian crossings: if you approach
pedestrian crossings and pedestrians are in the
danger zone or are moving towards it, Traffic Sign
Assist can warn you up to a speed of approx-
imately 44 mph (70 km/h).
Warning at stop signs: Traffic Sign Assist can warn
you up to a speed of approximately 44 mph
(70 km/h) if you are about to drive through a stop
sign unintentionally. For this to be possible, the
signs must be clear, e.g. if the system detects
more than one stop sign or can confirm a stop
sign using the digital navigation map. No warning
can be issued if several different signs are detec-
ted.
