Introduction

Examples of readable road signs

Road Sign Information (RSI) is a feature that
helps the driver see road signs with the posted
speed limit.

If the vehicle passes a sign showing the speed
limit, this will be displayed in the center con-
sole.

WARNING

RSI does not function in all situations and is
only intended to provide supplementary
information.

The driver is always responsible for operat-
ing the vehicle safely.

Operation

Registered speed information

When RSI registers a road sign showing the
speed limit, this sign is displayed as a symbol
on the instrument panel.

Speed alert

The driver can opt to be alerted if the vehicle
exceeds the posted speed limit by more than
3 mph (5 km/h). The alert is given when the
symbol with the posted speed limit in the
instrument panel begins to flash.

Limitations

RSI's camera has the same limitations as the
human eye. See page 162 for more informa-
tion about the camera's limitations.

Signs that indirectly indicate the speed limit
(such as a sign with a town's name and the
permitted speed limit) will not be registered by
RSI.

Other factors that may interfere with RSI
include:

Faded signs

Signs located in a curve
