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:

Operation
In vehicles with Services est ablished by
time or mil eage, the service intervals are
already pre-defined.
In vehicles with LongLife Service, the inter-
vals are determined individually. Thanks to
technological progress, maintenance work
has been greatly reduced. Because of the
technology used by SEAT, with this service
you only need to change the oil when the ve-
hicle so requires. To calculate this variation
(max. 2 years), the vehicle's conditions of use
and individual driving styles are considered.
The advance warning first appears 20 days
before the date established for the corre-
sponding service. The kilometres (miles) re-
maining until the next service are always
rounded up to the nearest 100 km (miles) and
the time is given in complete days. The cur-
rent service message cannot be viewed until
500 km after the last service. Prior to this, on-
ly lines are visible on the display.
Inspection reminder
If a service or an inspection has to be carried
out soon, a service reminder will be dis-
played when the ignition is switched on.
The figure displayed are the kilometres that
can still be travelled or the time until the next
service. Service due
When the time for a service
or an inspec-
tion comes, an audible warning will be emit-
ted when the ignition is switched on and the
fixed key symbol > may appear on the in-
strument panel for a few seconds, along with
one of the following messages:
