4.1.3  Road safety cameras and other proximity alert points (Only some 

countries and regions)

There is a special proximity warning for road safety cameras (like speed or red light 
cameras) and other proximity alert points (like schools or railroad crossings). 
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 Warning Settings (page 80).
The following alert types are available: 
•  Audio warning: When approaching one of these points, a beep sound (regular 

sound) can be used or the type of warning can be announced (TTS), and an extra 
alert can warn you if you exceed the given speed limit while approaching the 
point.

•  Always: The type of the alert point, its distance, and the related speed limit appear 

on the Map screen while you are approaching one of these points.

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. 
Setting can be selected using Warning Settings:
•  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. To draw you attention, the alert may differ if you exceed the 
speed limit.

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.
