Dynamic Road Sign Display

The Dynamic Road Sign Display is always active when the ignition is switched on. The system uses a camera in the base of the interior mirror to monitor standard road signs and informs the driver of any detected speed limits, overtaking restrictions, and danger signs. Within the limits of the system, the system also displays a generic additional sign in order to provide further information such as time restrictions or restrictions in wet or foggy conditions. These additional signs are displayed in the head-up display → Head-up display. In some cases the system can also display the current speed limits on non-signposted routes.

Displays
In addition to speed limits and overtaking restrictions, Dynamic Road Sign Display also detects the road sign which indicates that all restrictions have been lifted on motorways and main roads in Germany. In all other countries in which the system is operated, the current speed limit is displayed instead.
The road signs detected by the Dynamic Road Sign Display system are displayed on the instrument cluster. Road signs may also be displayed in the Infotainment system, depending on the system installed in the vehicle. With some equipment levels, a display is also shown on the Head-up Display. The display of danger signs is not available in all countries and the system may not be able to recognize all danger signs.

Speed warning
If the Dynamic Road Sign Display detects that an applicable speed limit has been exceeded, it can issue an acoustic warning signal or display a message on the instrument cluster display.
The speed warning can be set or completely deactivated in the vehicle settings in the Infotainment system (→ Vehicle settings menu). The speed warning can be set to a value of
0 km/h (mph), 5 km/h (3 mph), or 10 km/h (5 mph) above the permitted speed.

No-entry warning
If the Dynamic Road Sign Display detects a no-entry sign on a one-way road or motorway entrance, it will issue an acoustic warning signal or display a message on the instrument cluster display.

Function limitations
Dynamic Road Sign Display is subject to system-related limitations. The following conditions can restrict the function of the Dynamic Road Sign Display, or prevent it from working altogether:

1. Poor visibility, e.g. due to snow, rain, fog, or heavy spray.
2. Glare, e.g. from oncoming traffic or sunlight.
3. High speeds.
4. A covered or dirty camera.
5. Road signs are located outside of the camera’s field of view.
6. Partially or fully hidden road signs, e.g. by trees, snow, dirt, or other vehicles.
7. Non-standard road signs.
8. Damaged or bent road signs.
9. Variable road signs on gantries (changeable road sign display using LEDs or other light sources).
10. Out-of-date map material in the Infotainment system.
11. Vehicles with road sign stickers, e.g. speed restrictions on trucks.

WARNING:
The intelligent road sign recognition system technology cannot overcome the laws of physics and functions only within the limits of the system. Do not let the extra convenience afforded by Dynamic Road Sign Display tempt you into taking any risks when driving. The system is not a substitute for the full concentration of the driver.

1. Always adapt your speed and driving style to suit visibility, weather, road, and traffic conditions.
2. Poor visibility, darkness, snow, rain, and fog can cause traffic signs to be not displayed or be incorrectly displayed by the system.
3. If the camera’s field of view is dirty, covered, or damaged, the function of the Dynamic Road Sign Display system may be impaired.

WARNING
Driving recommendations and traffic symbols displayed by the Dynamic Road Sign Display system may differ from the current traffic situation.

1. Not all road signs can be recognized by the system and displayed correctly.
2. Road signs on the road and traffic regulations have priority over the recommendations and displays provided by the Dynamic Road Sign Display system.

The symbols displayed may differ slightly depending on vehicle equipment and model. Symbols may be changed or extended by a system update. As soon as you follow the instructions and take your foot off the accelerator, the vehicle will adapt brake energy recuperation and the driving speed depending on the selected driving profile and distance to the event (→ Brake energy recuperation) . When the system is active, Eco assistance can also increase brake energy recuperation without displaying a message. This may be the case if you take your foot off the accelerator when there is a vehicle in front, for example. Here, brake energy recuperation is adapted to the vehicle in front without any message being displayed.
