Speed Limit Info
Speed Limit Info
Principle
Speed Limit Info uses a camera near the in-
terior rearview mirror to detect road signs at
the edge of the road as well as overhead sign
posts.
Speed Limit Info shows the currently valid
speed limit in the instrument cluster and, if
necessary, the Head-up display.
Speed Limit Info may also show speed limits
that apply to routes that are not signposted if
the navigation system has current map data.
General information
Traffic signs with subplates are analyzed and

The traffic sign will then be either displayed
or ignored depending on the situation in the
instrument cluster and the Head-up display.

“Navigation system” section.
