navigation update MERCEDES-BENZ GLC SUV 2015 Owners Manual

COMAND. You can select a service station
and navigation to this service station will then
begin. This function can be activated and
deactivated in COMAND. Traffic Sign Assist
General notes Traffic Sign Assist displays the maximum
speed permitted and overtaking restrictions
to the driver in the instrument cluster. Driving onto a section of road in the wrong direction
triggers a warning. Traffic Sign Assist detects traffic signs with camera system :attached
behind the top of the windscreen. The data
and general traffic regulations stored in the
navigation system are also used to determine
the current speed limit.
If a traffic sign that is relevant to your vehicle is passed, the display of the speed limits and
overtaking restrictions is updated.
The display can also be updated without a
visible traffic sign if:
R the vehicle changes roads (e.g. motorway
exit or slip road)
R a village or town boundary is passed which
is stored in the digital map
R the last traffic sign detected by the camera
has not been repeated
If a sign indicating the end of a restriction
(speed limit or overtaking restriction) is
passed, the sign is displayed for five seconds.
The currently applicable traffic regulation continues to be shown in the assistance
graphic display (Y
page 326).
The camera also detects traffic signs with a
restriction indicated by an additional sign
(e.g. in wet conditions).
The traffic signs are only displayed with the
restrictions if:
R the regulation must be observed with the
restriction, or
R Traffic Sign Assist is unable to determine
whether the restriction applies
If Traffic Sign Assist is unable to determine a
maximum permitted speed from any of the
available sources, no speed limit is displayed
in the instrument cluster either. Traffic Sign Assist is not available in all coun-
tries. In this case, display :is shown in the
speedometer.
Important safety notes Traffic Sign Assist is only an aid and is not
always able to correctly display speed limits
and overtaking restrictions. Traffic signs
always have priority over the Traffic Sign
Assist display.
The system may be either functionally
impaired or temporarily unavailable if:
R visibility is poor, e.g. due to snow, rain, fog
or spray
R there is glare, e.g. from the sun being low in
the sky
R there is dirt, ice or misting on the wind-
screen in the vicinity of the camera 274
