Default Speed limit display

I just picked up a new 2018 Panamera 4s, it has Sport & Premium Plus Pkg (if that matters). The owners manual states that three different road signs (including speed limit) should appear in the display (far left where the outside temperature is). So far, nothing appears in this area other than the temperature. Is there something wrong or do I need to do something to activate this feature?

The speed limit indicator is part of the Lane Keep Assist option. Not all cars have it. Also, the display will show up to three road signs on the display, depending on circumstances, not three signs at all times. As someone else suggested, check your PCM "Drive" and "Car" settings to see what you have.

Yup, its in the options. I remember setting mine. You will see the symbol for speed limit sign at side of road on your cluster, showing the speed limit the part of road has set. Of course, accuracy is limited to how old the data is for your maps in PCM. So on newer roads, keep that in mind.
Since you are driving a Porsche, there really is no speed limit.

THANK YOU FGV.... you hit it..... it is part of the assistance package which includes Lane Keep, night vision AND sign recognition (speed limit). I don't have that package so that ends that quest.
