Road Sign Information (RSI)*
RSI is a feature that helps the driver see roadsigns showing the posted speed limit.
Examples of readable road signs
If the vehicle passes a sign showing the speedlimit, this will be displayed in the instrument paneland the head-up display*.

NOTE
If the vehicle is equipped with the SensusNavigation 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 isonly intended to provide supplementary infor-mation.
The driver is always responsible for operatingthe vehicle safely.
