Dynamic alert points may also be available online at your location.
The application can warn you when you approach road safety cameras like speed cameras
or dangerous areas like school zones or railroad crossings. You can set up the different alert
types individually in Sound and Warning settings (page 60).
The following alert types are available:
• Audio warning: beeps can be played (natural voice) or the type of the alert can be
announced (TTS) when you are approaching one of these points, and an extra alert can
warn you if you exceed the given speed limit while approaching.
• Visual warning: the type of the alert point, its distance and the related speed limit appear
on the Map screen when you are approaching one of these cameras.
For some of the alert points, the enforced or expected speed limit is available. For these points,
the audio alert can be different if you are below or above the given speed limit.
• Only when speeding: The audio alert is only played when you exceed the given speed
limit.
• When approaching: The audio alert is always played when approaching one of these
alert points. In order to draw your attention, the alert can is different when you exceed the
speed limit.
Note!
The warning for road safety cameras is disabled when you are in a
country where road safety camera warning is prohibited. However, you
must ensure on your own liability that using this feature is legal in the
country where you intend to use it.
