Speed Limit Info
Speed Limit Info
Concept
Speed Limit Info shows the currently valid speed
limit in the instrument cluster and, if necessary,
the Head-up Display.
General information
The camera in the area of the interior mirror de‐
tects traffic signs at the edge of the road as well
as overhead sign posts.
Traffic signs with extra symbols are considered
and compared with the vehicle's onboard data.
The traffic sign will then be either displayed or ig‐
nored depending on the situation in the instru‐
ment cluster and the Head-up Display.
With the navigation system, the system takes
into account the information stored in the naviga‐
tion data and also displays speed limits present
on routes without signs.
Without a navigation system, the system is sub‐
ject to limitations imposed by technology. Traffic
signs with speed limitations are detected and
displayed only. Speed limitations due to entering
or exiting towns, highway signs, etc. are not dis‐
played. Speed limits with extra text characters
are always displayed.
Speed limits for trailer towing will be displayed
when the trailer power socket is occupied or
trailer towing was activated via iDrive.
Safety information
Warning
The system cannot serve as a substitute for the
driver’s personal judgment in assessing visibility
and traffic situation. There is a risk of accident.
Adjust driving style to traffic conditions. Watch
traffic closely and actively intervene where ap‐
propriate.
