Road Sign Information (RSI) *
RSI is a feature that helps the driver see road signs showing the posted speed limit.
Examples of readable road signs
If the vehicle passes a sign showing the speed limit, this will be displayed in the instrument panel and the head-up display *.
NOTE
If the vehicle is equipped with the Sensus Navigation system, speed-related informationis provided by this system in the followinginstances:
• In cases where the speed limit is givenindirectly (e.g., when driving on highwaysor other major roads).
• If a previously read speed limit sign is nolonger considered valid and no new signhas been passed.
If a third-party navigation system is beingused, RSI has no support for speed-relatedinformation.
WARNING
RSI does not function in all situations and is only intended to provide supplementary infor-mation. The driver is always responsible for operating the vehicle safely.

If the driver still does not begin to steer the vehi- cle, LKA will go into standby mode. The functionwill not become available again until the driveractively steers the vehicle
Traffic lane assistance does not react
The traffic lane assistance system does not intervene in sharp curves
In certain cases, such as during active driving or if the turn signal is used, the traffic lane system will not react if the vehicle crosses a lane marker
line.

Driving lane assistance symbols and messages
A number of symbols and messages relating to Lane Keeping Aid (LKA) may appear in theinstrument panel.
Symbols in the instrument panelThe driving lane assistance systems use a symbol in theinstrument panel in differentsituations.
Several examples of the symbol's appearance will be given here:
Available
When the driving lane assistance systems are available,
the marker lines in the symbol will be white.
LKA are monitoring the driving lane's marker line(s).
Not available
When the driving lane assistance systems are not avail-
able, the marker lines in the symbol will be gray
This is because LKA cannot monitor (detect) the driving lane's marker line(s) or the vehicle'sspeed is too low or the road is too narrow.
Steering/warning indicator
Steering/warning: the side marker lines in the symbol will be colored
LKA indicates that the system is warning and/or attempting to steer the vehicle back into its lane.
