Example of registered speed information for Canada.

When the function has registered a speed limit sign the instrument panel will display the sign as a symbol.

Because speed-related information is retrieved from map data, the instrument panel may display or change information about the speed limit even if the vehicle has not passed a speed limit sign.

Signs for “School” and “Children playing”

If the warning sign “School” or “Children playing” is included in the satellite navigator’s map data, a symbol of this type will be displayed in the instrument panel.

Road Sign Information limitations*

Road Sign Information (RSI) functionality may be reduced in certain situations.

This function is available in certain markets.

The function could have reduced functionality due to e.g.:

  • faded road signs
  • signs located in a curve in the road
  • twisted or damaged signs
  • signs positioned high above the road
  • fully/partially obstructed or poorly positioned signs
  • signs partially or fully covered by frost, snow and/or dirt

  • no Internet connection

NOTE

In certain markets, the Road Sign Information function is only available in combination with map data. This may require changing the settings for Google Maps.

NOTE

Some types of bicycle holders connected to the trailer electrical socket may be interpreted by the Road Sign Information system as a trailer. In this case, the instrument panel may show incorrect speed information.

NOTE

The function uses the vehicle’s camera and/or radar units, which have certain general limitations.

Speed limit and speed camera warnings from Road Sign Information*

There are sub-functions for Road Sign Information (RSI) that can alert the driver if the speed limit has been exceeded or if there are speed cameras nearby.

This function is available in certain markets.


Example of speed camera and speed limit information in the instrument panel

Speed limit warning

When Speed Warning is activated, the symbol for the current speed limit in the instrument panel will flash temporarily if that speed is exceeded.

The driver can be alerted if the vehicle is exceeding a detected speed limit and is approaching a speed camera.

Speed Warning alerts the driver if the vehicle’s speed has exceeded the stored Speed Limiter speed. The warning will be repeated once after about 30 seconds in that speed limit area if the driver does not slow down.

An additional warning will not be provided unless the vehicle’s speed is reduced by at least 5 km/h(3 mph) and then exceeds the speed limit again or the vehicle enters a new/different speed limit area.

NOTE

For an audible alert to be provided if the speed is exceeded, the Speed Warning function must be activated and the visible alert for road signs sub-function must be On. Audible alerts are provided if the vehicle’s speed exceeds the speed displayed by Road Sign Information in the instrument panel.

Speed camera warning

Road Sign Information can display information about upcoming speed cameras in the instrument panel.

NOTE

The speed camera information function will be available at a later time.

If the vehicle exceeds a detected speed limit with the Speed Warning function activated, the driver is given a speed warning when the vehicle is approaching a speed camera if the navigation map for the vehicle’s current location contains information on speed cameras.

NOTE

It is possible to receive an audible alert for speed cameras regardless of the vehicle’s speed and whether or not the speed limit is exceeded, even if the audible alert for road signs function is deactivated.
