If speed limit change between 20 km/h and 130 km/h is detected and the automatic adoption of speed limits is active, it will be automatically adopted as the stored speed More.
The driven speed is adjusted when the vehicle is level with the traffic sign at the latest. In the case of signs indicating entry into an urban area, the speed is adapted according to the speed permitted within the urban area. The speed limit display in the Instrument Display is always updated when the vehicle is level with the traffic sign.
If there is no speed restriction on an unlimited stretch of road (e.g. on a motorway), the recommended speed is automatically adopted as the stored speed. The system uses the speed stored on an unlimited stretch of road as the recommended speed. If you do not alter the stored speed on an unlimited stretch of road, the recommended speed is 130 km/h.
If Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC has been put into passive mode by pressing the accelerator pedal, only speed limits which are higher than the set speed are adopted.
Observe the notes on driving systems and your responsibility; you may otherwise fail to recognise dangers More.
The system limits of Traffic Sign Assist apply to the detection of traffic signs .
Speed limits below 20 km/h are not automatically adopted by the system as the stored speed. Temporary speed restrictions (e.g. for a certain time or due to weather conditions) cannot be properly detected by the system. The maximum permissible speed applying to a vehicle with a trailer is not detected by the system.
Adjust the speed in these situations.
The speed adopted by Active Speed Limit Assist may be too high or incorrect in some individual cases, such as:
at speed limits below 20 km/h
in wet conditions or in fog
when towing a trailer
