About Traffic Sign Recognition
If equipped, Traffic Sign Recognition uses your vehicle’s internal navigation systems to recognize certain nearby traffic signs. This requires an active eligible OnStar® plan.
Your vehicle will display the detected sign in your centerstack display or Driver Information Center (DIC), depending on your vehicle.
Traffic Sign Recognition is currently designed to detect posted speed limits only.
The feature may not detect all types of traffic signs and may take a short time to inform you of newly detected signs.
You should not rely only on Traffic Sign Recognition to detect nearby traffic signs. You must remain alert and aware while driving at all times.
When Traffic Sign Recognition detects a new posted speed limit sign, you’ll hear a brief chime. If the feature notices you are moving faster than the posted speed limit, the Speed Limit icon in your DIC will flash and you’ll hear multiple chimes to let you know you are speeding.
You can customize the feature through your vehicle’s Settings menu. Select “Display,” then “Instrument Cluster” and then “Traffic Sign Recognition” to see available options.
Safety or driver assistance features are no substitute for the driver’s responsibility to operate the vehicle in a safe manner. The driver should remain attentive to traffic, surroundings and road conditions at all times. Visibility, weather and road conditions may affect feature performance. Read the vehicle Owner’s Manual for more important feature limitations and information.
For your security, please don’t include personal info such as phone number, address or credit card details.
