Changing Automatic Speed Limiter
tolerance
The Automatic Speed Limiter (ASL
23
) can be set
to different tolerance levels.
It is also possible to allow the vehicle to drive
above or below the posted speed limit. For exam-
ple, if the vehicle is following a current posted
speed limit of 70 km/h (43 mph), the driver can
instead allow the vehicle to maintain a speed of
75 km/h (47 mph). Function buttons and symbols
24
. –
Tap the (1) button on the steering
wheel keypad until 70 km/h (43 mph) has
been changed to 75 km/h (47 mph) in the
center of the speedometer (4).
>

The vehicle will then use the selected tol-
erance of 5 km/h (4 mph) as long as the
posted speed limit the vehicle passes is
70 km/h (43 mph).
This tolerance level will be followed until
the vehicle passes a sign with a lower or
higher speed. The vehicle will then adjust
to the new speed limit and the set toler-
ance will be deleted from the system's
memory.
If Road Sign Information* is activated, the
posted speed limit will then be indicated
by a RED marking on the speedometer's
speed scale.
The set tolerance can be adjusted in the same
way as for the Speed Limiter's speed.
NOTE The highest possible selectable tolerance is
+/- 10 km/h (5 mph).

Speed limiter (p. 278) 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 then
have to actively brake to bring the vehicle down
to 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.
