The units for the speed limits (mph or
km/h) depend on the country you are
driving in.
It should be taken into account so that you
obser ve the speed limit.
For the system to operate correctly when
you change country, the units for speed in
the instrument panel must be those for the
country you are driving in.
Speed limit for vehicles whose gross vehicle
weight or gross train weight is less than
3.5


tonnes
56 mph (90 km/h) (for example)
Speed limit in snow
Example: If the exterior temperature is below 3°C:
19 mph (30 km/h) (for example)
with a "snowflake" symbol
Speed limit at cer tain times
Example: 19 mph (30 km/h) (for example)
with a "clock" symbol
The automatic reading of road signs is
a driving aid system and does not always
display speed limits correctly.
The speed limit signs present on the road
always take priority in comparison with the
display by the system.
The system is designed to detect signs
that conform to the Vienna Convention on
road signs. Specific speed limits, such as those for
heavy goods vehicles, are not displayed.
The display of the speed limit in the
instrument panel is updated as you pass
a
speed limit sign intended for cars (light
vehicles).
