If cruise control/variable limiter is activated and
Traffic Sign Assist has detected a speed restric‐
tion sign with a maximum permissible speed and
this is displayed in the instrument cluster:
#

The maximum permissible speed shown by
the traffic sign is stored and the vehicle
maintains or does not exceed this speed.
