Qualifier plate
detected Display of the speed
associated with the qualifier plate
Speed limit at certain times
Example:
19 mph (30 km/h) (for example)
with a "clock" symbol
The units for the speed limit (mph or
km/h) depend on the country you are
driving in.
This should be taken into account so that you
observe the speed limit.
For the system to work correctly when
changing country, the speed unit in the
instrument panel must correspond to that of
the country you are driving in.
The automatic reading of road signs is a
driving aid system and does not always
display speed limits correctly.
The speed limit signs present on the road
always take priority over the display by the
system.
The system is designed to detect signs that
conform to the Vienna Convention on road
signs.
Specific speed limits, such as those for
heavy goods vehicles, are not displayed.
The display of the speed limit in the instrument
panel is updated when passing a speed limit
sign intended for cars (light vehicles).
Activation / Deactivation
By default, the system is automatically activated
at every engine start.
It is set via the Driving / Vehicle touch
screen menu.

first time the vehicle exceeds the suggested
speed by more than 3 mph (5 km/h) (e.g. 59 mph
(95 km/h)), the speed is displayed flashing for 10
seconds.

speed limits, especially those imposed in the
following cases:
