The system can simultaneously show up to two
traffic signs on the driver's display. The system
always prioritises displaying speed limits. The
head-up display shows up to one traffic sign with
a maximum permissible speed. If two-speed signs
are shown in the driver's display, forexample,
when speed limits are detected, the value of the
left-hand speed limit

is transmitted to the lim-
iter, cruise control or Active Distance Assist
DISTRONIC for adoption and is shown in the
head-up display.

display can thus be updated without a traffic sign
having been detected.
