Speed warning system
Overview
The speed warning system helps you to keep your driving
speed below a set speed limit.
Fi g. 18 D isplay: s pee d
w arn in g sys tem
The speed warning system warns the driver if he exceeds a previ
ously stored maximum speed . A warning tone wi ll sound as soon as
the vehicle speed exceeds the set speed by about 3 mph (3 km/h). At
the same time, a warning symbol appears in the display=> fig. 18.
The speed warn ing system has
two warning thre shold s that func
tion independent ly of each other and that have somewhat different
purposes :
Speed w arnin g 1 _ / ~ (C ana da mod els)
You can use speed warning 1 to set the max imum speed whi le you
are driving. This setting wi ll remain in effect until you turn off the
ign ition, assuming that you have not changed or reset the setting .
The speed warning symbo l / (Canada mode ls) in the warning 1
display appears when you exceed the maximum speed. It goes out
when the speed falls be low the stored maximum speed.
The speed warning symbol will also go out if the speed
exceeds the
stored maximum speed by more than about 25 mph (40 km/h) for at
least 10 seconds. The stored maximum speed is de leted . Setting speed warning 1
~ page 30.
S
peed w arning 2 I (Canada m odel s)
Storing warning 2 is recommended if you always want to be
reminded of a certain speed, for example when you are traveling in
a country that has a general maximum speed limit, or if you do not
want to exceed a specified speed for winter tires .
The speed warning 2 symbol, _;_._ (Canada models) appears in the
display when you exceed the stored speed limit. Unlike warning 1,
it wi ll not go out until the vehic le speed drops be low the stored
speed limit .
Setting speed warning 2

[ i ] Tips
Even though your vehicle is equipped with a speed warning system,
you should still watch the speedometer to make sure you are not
driving faster than the speed limit .•
