CENTERING  
Principle of Operation  
display.  
WARNING: When you are going  
downhill, your vehicle speed could  
increase above the set speed. The  
system does not apply the brakes.  
Note: The set speed limiter adjusts when

personal injury or death.  
The system allows you to limit the vehicle  
speed to the maximum speed limit  
detected by the speed sign recognition  
system. For example, if the speed sign  
recognition system detects a 80 km/h  
(50 mph) speed limit, the vehicle speed is  
limited to 80 km/h (50 mph). You can  
temporarily exceed the set speed if  
required, for example to overtake.  
Note: The system does not limit the vehicle  
speed to speed limits shown with a  
supplementary traffic sign in the information  
display.
