Danger zone warning 
When you receive a warning, an alert symbol appears in the top left corner of the Driving View and 
a small symbol appears on your driving route. The alert symbol is displayed as you travel through 
the zone. 
Only one alert symbol is used to warn about danger zones: 
Alert symbol 
Route symbol  Description 
The length of a danger zone may be 300 m, 2000 
m or 4000 m depending on the type of road. If 
several cameras are close to each other, the 
warning can be merged in a single longer zone. 
Note: When you have the Danger Zones service, the lower part of the alert symbol is blue and the 
symbol shown on your route is red. Without the Danger Zones service, the lower part of the alert 
symbol is gray and the symbol shown on your route is black. 
The warning sound you hear depends on whether you are currently exceeding the speed limit or not.
