Road Sign Information (RSI)*
The road sign information function (RSI –
Road Sign Information) helps the driver to
remember which speed-related road signs the
car has passed.
Examples of readable speed related signs 1 .
The RSI function gives information on current
speed, e.g. that a motorway or road is star-
ting/ending and when overtaking is prohibi-
ted.
If both a sign for motorway/road for motor-
ised traffic and a sign showing the maximum
permitted speed are passed, RSI decides to
show the sign symbol for maximum permitted
speed.
WARNING
RSI does not work in all situations but is
designed merely as a supplementary aid.
The driver always bears ultimate responsi-
bility for ensuring that the vehicle is driven
safely and that applicable road traffic rules
and regulations are followed.
