Limited operation
The traic sign detection system has certain
limitations. The following cases may lead the
system to operate with limitations or not at all:
●
In the case of poor visibility, e.g. in snow,
rain, fog or intense mist.
●
In cases of dazzling, e.g. caused by head-on
traic or by the sun.
●
When driving at high speeds.
●
If the camera is covered or dirty.
●
If the traic signs are partially or totally ob-
structed, e.g. by trees, snow, dirt or other vehi-
cles.
●
In the case of traic signs that do not full
the regulations.
●
In the case of damaged or bent traic signs.
●
In the case of variable messages on over-
head or gantry signs (LED-based variable traic
signs or other lighting units).
●
If the maps on the navigation system are not
up-to-date.
●
In the case of adhesives aixed to vehicles
that depict traic signs, e.g. speed limits on
lorries.
WARNING
The technology in the traic sign detection
system cannot change the limits imposed by
the laws of physics and only works within the
system's limits. Do not let the extra conven-
ience aorded by the traic sign detection
system tempt you into taking any risks when
driving. The system is not a replacement for
driver awareness.
●
Adapt your speed and driving style to
suit visibility, weather, road and traic condi-
tions.
●
Poor visibility, darkness, snow, rain and fog
may lead to the system failing to display traf-
c signs or not displaying them correctly.
●
If the camera's eld of vision is dirty, cov-
ered or damaged, system operation may be
impaired.
WARNING
The driving recommendations and traic in-
dications shown on the traic sign detection
system may dier from the actual current
traic situation.
●
The system may not detect or correctly
show all the traic signs.
●
Traic signs and traic regulations have
priority over the recommendations and dis-
plays provided by the system.
Note
To avoid aecting the correct operation of
the system, take the following points into
consideration:
●
Regularly clean the area of vision of the
camera and keep it in a clean state, without
snow or ice.
●
Do not cover the eld of vision of the cam-
era.
●
Always replace damaged or worn blades
when required to avoid lines on the camera's
eld of vision.
●
Check that the windscreen is not damaged
in the area of the camera's eld of vision.
●
The use of outdated maps on the naviga-
tion system may cause the system to show
traic signs incorrectly.
●
In the waypoints mode of the navigation
system, the traic sign detection system is
only partly available.
