Hi,

Can someone explain how to correctly set the options for the Speed Limit Warner on Ovi Maps 3.04? I'm kind of confused here... 

Also, I would like to know how these options differ from the Safety Spot Warner option?

Thanks in advance!

You can set the parameters by which you can exceed statutory speed limit before an alarm sounds. Irrespective of whether limit is enforced by safety camera as well, statutory speed limit remains in force:

Sorry, I'm afraid I didn't understand the difference between statutory speed limit and safety camera speed limit. Also, it there seems to be an image at your post, but I can't see it.

A motorway has an overall speed limit but also maybe enforced by speed cameras. Here is screenshot put on a different host although previous displays for me:<a>http://imgur.com/94k56.jpg</a>

@asperguy,

OK, I think I get it. What are the best speed limit warner parameters, considering three different overall speed limits: 80 km/h, 100 Km/h and 120 km/h? Do I have to change the speed limit warner parameters for each different motorway?

Firstly select imperial or metric, then decide what speed over the limit you wish to activate the warning. Mine is set at 2mph up to 50mph and 3mph over 50mph.  In drive mode the speed indicator (bottom left) shows green, but when exceeding 32mph in a 30mph area turns red and emits a warning. Subsequently in a 60mph limit, exceeding 63mph produces a warning.  The map software detects the road speed limits, and this is an excellent safety feature. In respect of police safety cameras and mobile speeding units the general concensus is that a tolerance of 10% + 2mph is used to counter inaccurate speedometers.  Also note that the speed displayed by the map is by GPS (more accurate than a speedometer).  Hope this helps!
