Changing the tolerance for the
Automatic Speed Limiter
The Automatic Speed Limiter function (ASL
23
)
can be set for different tolerance levels.
It is possible to increase/decrease the signed
speed limit. If, for example, the car follows a
signed speed limit of 70km/h (43 mph) the
driver can instead choose to allow the car to
maintain 75 km/h (47 mph).

–
Press the steering wheel button (1)
until 70 km/h (43 mph) in the centre of the
speedometer (4) changes to 75 km/h
(47 mph).
> After which, the car uses the selected tol-
erance 5 km/h (4 mph) as long as signs
passed are showing 70 km/h (43 mph).
The tolerance is followed until a road sign
with a lower or higher speed is passed -
then the car follows the new signed
speed limit instead and the tolerance is
deleted from the memory.
If the Road Sign Information* function is
activated, the signed speed limit will then
be shown with a RED indicator on the
speedometer.
The tolerance is adjusted in the same way as the
speed setting is in the speed limiter.
NOTE
The maximum selectable tolerance is
+/- 10 km/h (5 mph).

Limitations for Automatic Speed
Limiter
Automatic speed limitation takes place using
speed information from the RSI
25
function - not
from the speed limit road signs that the car
passes.
If RSI
25
cannot interpret and provide speed infor-
mation to the ASL, then the ASL is set in standby
mode and changes over to SL. In such cases the
driver must intervene and brake to a suitable
speed.
The ASL will be reactivated when the RSI
25
func-
tion can once again interpret and provide speed
information to the ASL.
See also the section "Limitations for Road Sign
Information".
