Speed limiter with proactive speed adjustment
Note
Please also note the information of relevance
to safety on the speed limiter ›››page199.
Limitations of proactive speed ad-
justment
In addition to the limitations of the dynamic
road sign display system, the speed limiter with
proactive speed adjustment has the following
limitations inherent to the system:
●
The speed limiter with proactive speed ad-
justment only recognises traic signs showing
a speed limit.
●
Traic signs that indirectly show a speed re-
striction, e.g. signs at the entrance to towns,
are only recognised on the basis of navigation
data.
●
If a warning is given of a speed restriction
based on navigation data, without it being de-
tected by the dynamic road sign display, the
indicated speed will be adjusted to the most
recently saved speed.
●
The speed limiter with proactive speed ad-
justment is not available for speed restrictions
lower than approx. 30 km/h (approx. 20 mph)
that are detected. In this case, a relevant
message is displayed on the instrument panel
screen.
Activate proactive speed adjust-
ment
The speed limiter with proactive speed adjust-
ment can be activated in the infotainment sys-
tem’s assistants menu.
Driving with proactive speed ad-
justment
●
Activate the proactive speed adjustment.
●
Switch on the speed limiter and start the
control ›››page199.
●
When the system recognises a new speed
limit, a warning is displayed on the instrument
cluster. This speed will be stored in the speed
limiter.
The system has recognised a new speed
limit and uses it for regulation.
Interrupting speed adjustment
●
Press the button on the multifunction
steering wheel or release and press the accel-
erator pedal twice. The last saved speed is re-
sumed.
●
Press the button on the multifunction
steering wheel. The current speed is taken.
●
Press the button on the multifunction
steering wheel. The system switches to a pas-
sive state.
Adjust the displayed speed using the buttons
on the multifunction steering wheel
+ 1 km/h (1mph)
- 1 km/h (1mph)
+ 10 km/h (5mph)
- 10 km/h (5mph)
If you adjust the indicated speed excessively,
the proactive speed adjustment is interrupted.
Note
●
When a speed restriction is recognised, the
proactive speed adjustment also adapts the
saved speed, even if the speed limiter is not
active.
●
If the speed of travel considerably exceeds
the speed limit detected by the traic signal
detection system, a relevant warning is dis-
played in the instrument panel display.
●
When merging onto a motorway or dual
carriageway, the recommended speed is au-
tomatically saved as the desired speed.
