Automatic Speed Limiter limitations
ASL utilizes the speed limit information provided by the RSI 25
system, not from the speed limit
signs that the vehicle passes.
If RSI 25
is unable to interpret and provide ASL
with speed information, ASL will go into standby mode and switch over to SL. The driver will thenhave to actively brake to bring the vehicle downto the appropriate speed. ASL will be reactivated when RSI 25
is once again
able to interpret and provide speed information to ASL. See "Road Sign Information limitations" for more information.
