tions in the instrument cluster and optionally in
the head-up display.
Since Traffic Sign Assist also uses the data
stored in the navigation system, it can update
the display in the following situations without
detecting traffic signs:
R
When the vehicle changes roads, e.g. free‐
way entry or exit road.
R
When a village or city boundary is passed
which is stored in the digital map.
The camera also detects traffic signs with a
restriction indicated by an additional sign (e.g. in
wet conditions).
Traffic Sign Assist is only an aid. The driver is
responsible for keeping a safe distance to the
vehicle in front, for vehicle speed and for braking
in good time. The maximum permissible speed
also depends on factors such as the road sur‐
face and traffic conditions.
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 specify whether the warning is to be just a
visual warning or an acoustic one as well.

System limitations
The system may be impaired or may not function
in the following situations:
R
If there is poor visibility, e.g. due to insuffi‐
cient illumination of the road, if there are
highly variable shade conditions or in rain,
snow, fog or heavy spray.
R
If there is glare, e.g. from oncoming tr affic,
direct sunlight or reflections.
