Instruments and warning/control lamps
Within its limitations, the system also displays
additional signal s, such as time-specific pr
o-
hibitions, signs for vehicles towing trailers
››› page 298 or limitations that only apply in
the event of rain. Even on journeys without
signs, the system may display any applicable
speed limits.
The traffic sign detection system does not
work in all countries. Keep this in mind when
travelling abroad.
Shown on the display
In Germany, on motorways and vehicle
roads, besides speed limits and overtaking
provisions the system also displays the end of
prohibition signs. The valid speed limit at the
time in other countries is always shown.
The traffic signs detected by the system are
displayed on the dash panel display
››› Fig. 63 and, depending on the navigation
system fitted in the vehicle, on the infotain-
ment system as well ››› page 92
.
Hazard warning signs are not displayed in the
infotainment system.
Road sign detection system messages: There are no traffic signs available

Operation
of specific traffic signs for vehicles with trailer,
such as speed limits or o v
ertaking prohibi-
tions. Activation or deactivation is carried out
in the infotainment system using the function
button  > Driver assistance > Trailer as- sist ››› page 96
.
For trailer mode, the display of speed limits
applicable to the type of trailer or to the legal
provisions can be adjusted. The speed is ad-
justed in steps of 10 km/h (5 mph) within a
range of between 60 km/h (40 mph) and
130 km/h (80 mph). If it is adjusted to a speed
greater than that which is permitted in the
country in question for driving with a trailer,
the system automatically displays the usual
speed limits, e.g. in Germany 80 km/h
(50 mph).
If the speed warning for the trailer is deacti-
vated, the system displays the speed limits as
if there were no trailer hitched.
No entry sign
The traffic sign recognition system warns
acoustically and visually in the instrument
panel when a no entry sign is crossed on a
one-way road or an entrance to a motorway
or highway.
Limited operation
The traffic sign detection system has certain
limitations. The following cases may lead the system to operate with limitations or not at
all:

Lights
With the ignition on and without light activa-
tion, the anal ogue instrument panel lighting
r
emains activated in daytime light conditions.
The lighting is reduced as the exterior light di-
minishes. In some cases, e.g. when driving
through a tunnel without the  function ac-
tive, the instrument panel lighting may even
switch off. The objective of this function is to
provide the driver with a visual indication that
he or she should activate the dipped beam.
If your vehicle is equipped with a digital in-
strument panel (Digital SEAT Cockpit), the
following message will appear Turn on the
lights on the instrument panel.
