System display

Affichage du système

The system may display two traffic signs side by side.

You can check its status at any time using the multifunction display.

The system display works in four stages, as follows:

  1. All newly recognised road signs appear more prominently than other signs on the display.
  2. After a predetermined time, they are displayed normally.
  3. After a predetermined distance, they are displayed greyed out.
  4. After another predetermined distance, they are cleared.

If the system detects an additional sign, it is shown as a box below the respective sign, for example, when the vehicle passes a speed limit reduction sign on a wet road.

If your vehicle is equipped with a navigation system, stored road sign data may influence the speed limit value shown.
