4.1.4 Speed limit warning (Only some countries and regions)

Maps may contain information about the speed limits of the roads. The navigation system is 
able to warn you if you exceed the current limit. This information may not be available for your 
region (ask your local dealer), or may not be fully correct for all roads on the map.
The speed warning can be set from the Warning Settings (page 57). 
Setting can be selected using Warning Settings:

•  Audio warning: You will hear a warning beep if you exceed the speed limit by a certain 

percentage. 

•  Visual warning: If you exceed the speed limit on a road, the speed limit for the current 

road is shown on the map.

You can also choose to see the speed limit sign on the map all the time.

fi

 c information in route planning (Only some countries and regions)

The recommended route is not always the same between two points. Of

fl

 ine historical traf

fi

 c 

information (historical speed information or traf

fi

 c patterns) can be taken into account in the 

route calculation based on the time of day and the day of week whenever suitable data exists. 
In addition, real-time traf

fi

 c information can help you avoid current traf

fi

 c events like temporary 

road closures or a traf

fi

 c jam caused by an accident. Both functions are subject to data 

availability. 

Select 

 after selecting 

 on the MAP screen to display the historical traf

fi

 c information 

on the map. A 2D map is displayed with road segments colored by the density of the traf

fi

 c in 

the given period. The current information is shown when you open the screen. Modify the day 
of week and the time of day to see the desired period.

If historical traf

fi

 c information is available with the map data, the navigation system can use it 

when planning a route. In normal cases, these statistics help you avoid usual traf

fi

 c jams on 

the given day of week in the given hour but in some cases like on public holidays that fall on 
normal weekdays, they can be misleading. You can disable this feature in Traf

fi

 c settings (page 

58).
