This feature is part of the Audi's Intelligent Speed Adaptation (ISA) system, designed to help drivers stay within the legal speed limits and promote safer driving.
Here's what the MPH warning light on your Audi A4 display means:
1. Speed Limit Exceeded: The MPH warning light illuminates when you exceed the speed limit set in your vehicle's ISA system. This limit can be adjusted within a certain range, and it serves as a visual reminder to slow down and comply with traffic regulations.
2. Speed Limit Display: Alongside the MPH warning light, you may also see the current speed limit for the road you are driving on. This information is often obtained from GPS data or traffic sign recognition cameras to provide accurate speed limit information.
3. Adjustable Speed Limit: In some Audi models, you can customize the speed limit settings for the ISA system. This allows you to set a desired speed limit that the vehicle will help you maintain. However, it's important to remember that adhering to the legal speed limits takes precedence, regardless of your vehicle's ISA settings.
4. Visual and Audible Alerts: In addition to the MPH warning light, some Audi models may also provide audible alerts or chimes when you exceed the set speed limit. These alerts are meant to further draw your attention to the potential speeding situation.
5. ISA System Deactivation: If you find the ISA warnings distracting or unnecessary, you can typically deactivate the system through your vehicle's settings menu. However, it's generally recommended to keep the ISA enabled for enhanced safety and peace of mind.
By paying attention to the MPH warning light and adhering to the speed limits, you can ensure your safety and the safety of others on the road. Always follow traffic laws and exercise caution when driving, even with advanced driver-assistance features.
