Nissan X-Trail e-POWER 2023 Owners Manual
8.21.8.5. Speed Limit Link - a feature of ProPILOT Assist with Navi-link (where fitted)
Listed below are the system limitations for the Speed Limit Link. Failure to operate the vehicle in accordance with these system limitations could result in serious injury or death:
It is the driver’s responsibility to select the proper speed, follow all traffic regulations and observe other road users.
The Speed Limit Link may not operate properly and the actual speed limit may not be applied to the vehicle set speed in all conditions. The driver must manually control the vehicle speed.
Below are some examples:
When the Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR) system is not functioning properly or turned off. (See
.)When driving in countries or areas not covered by the navigation system.
When crossing national boundaries.
When driving on the exit of the limited access freeway as identified in the navigation map data.
When driving in an area with nearby parallel roads (for example, freeway with a parallel service drive).
When driving in an area where each lane has a different speed limit sign.
When driving on a road under construction or in a construction zone.
When the data from the navigation system is not up-to-date or is unavailable.
When the ProPILOT Assist with Navi-link is active and it detects a change of the speed limit, the new speed limit is indicated and it can be applied to the vehicle set speed automatically or manually.
The Speed Limit Link operates:
When the detected speed limit is 30 km/h (20 MPH) and above.
The [Speed Limit Link] is enabled in the settings menu of the vehicle information display.
While the accelerator pedal is operated with [AUTO] mode selected, the Speed Limit Link will function (automatically adjust the vehicle set speed) only when the detected speed limit is faster than the vehicle set speed.
In the following situations, the Speed Limit Link will not operate:
When an increase in the posted speed limit is detected, but the vehicle set speed is already faster than the new speed limit.
When a decrease in the posted speed limit is detected, but the vehicle set speed is already lower than the new speed limit.
For Germany (No Limit speed setting):
When you turn on the e-POWER system and subsequently enter a freeway with no speed limit, the system initially regulates the speed to 130 km/h (80 MPH). After this, the last speed stored by the driver on a freeway with no speed limit is applied.
This feature only works in Germany.

Operating the system
When the system detects a different speed limit, the new speed value is indicated. The vehicle set speed can be changed to the indicated speed limit automatically or manually.
When Manual mode is selected on settings menu (factory default setting):
To accept the newly indicated speed limit, operate the <RES+> switch (in case of speed limit up) or <SET-> switch (in case of speed limit down).
The Speed Limit Link indicator (
or ) will turn off after approximately 15 seconds if the <RES+> or <SET-> switch is not operated. (The Speed Limit Link indicator can be turned off immediately by operating the opposite switch from the direction indicated by the Speed Limit Link indicator.)
The system will not activate if a speed limit change is not detected.
When Auto mode is selected on the settings menu:
The indicated speed limit is applied to the vehicle set speed automatically when on a limited access freeway as identified in the navigation map data. Also, if the ProPILOT Assist with Navi-link system is ON, but not set (active), and a new speed limit is detected, the vehicle set speed is automatically updated.
The Auto mode may not be available in some regions or on roads other than limited access freeways. In this case, the system operates as the Manual mode.
