The type of speed camera and your distance from the camera location is shown in the Driving
View. If a speed restriction has been reported for the camera, the speed is also shown in the
Driving View.
The location of the speed camera is shown on the map.
Note: For speed enforcement zone cameras, you are warned by a combination of icons and
sounds at the start, middle and end of the Speed Enforcement Zone.

as, tap the Change warning preferences button.

fixed speed camera, do the following:
1. Tap options in the Main Menu.
2. Tap Speed Cameras.
3. Tap Change warning preferences.
A list of speed camera types is displayed. A speaker is shown next to
the speed camera types that have been set for an alert.
4. Tap Fixed speed cameras.
5. Tap NO to keep the fixed safety camera alerts.
6. Enter the time in seconds for when a warning is given before you
reach a camera. Then tap Next.
7. Tap the sound you want to be used for the warning.
Tips: To switch off warning sounds for a camera type, tap Silence in
step 7 above. You still see a warning in the Driving View if you
switch off the warning sound.
8. Tap YES to save your changes.
Safety camera symbols
Safety cameras are shown as symbols on the Driving View.
As you approach a camera, you see a symbol showing the kind of camera and the distance to the
camera. A warning sound is played. You can change the warning sound for cameras or turn
warning sounds on and off for each camera.
Tap the camera symbol to report that the camera is no longer there or to confirm that it is still
there.
Note: In France, to comply with French law we only warn you about danger zones. It's possible
to report or confirm the location of a Danger Zone, but it's not possible to remove them.
When you first start using your device, warning sounds are played for these types of cameras:
