I know you get this near a speed camera, but I get this spoken warning elsewhere, for no apparent reason. Does anyone know under what circumstances this audible warning sounds please?

You get an audible warning when approaching a speed camera? I'm sure I just get a warning symbol on the NAV screen.

I do get audible and visual warnings for watching my speed and roadworks and accidents. That's all I've experienced so far in my 3 weeks of ownership.

The only time mine givers a 'Caution warning is I'm approaching the car in front too fast (In it's opinion ;) ) or a car pulls sharply in front of me. If ignored, it will brake....

This is the audible warning tied in with the Sat Nav road side camera database, can be turned off somewhere.

Yes, thanks, I have turned it off (should have said that. :oops: )....It's a bit too sensitive in city traffic.

Getting a bit fed up with her saying "caution" all the time but loathed to switch her off. Think she only speaks to me when I'm approaching speed cameras but judging by her regularity there must be an awful lot of them not readily visible.

Where can I turn the Speed Camera Audible Caution ON?

Not sure it has the facility for that.....I think there's been some confusion in the thread about which caution warnings have been turned on/off.
I was referring to the collision warning...Sorry if the confusion was my fault....

You could turn the audible speed limit warning on, if your traffic sign recognition system is up to date and is accurate, additionally if you run Google maps and have a route entered that will give you audible fixed camera location warnings

I went to Leeds yesterday and my “caution” warning wasn’t there. I passed at least five cameras.

I’ve checked the nav settings and both visible and chime is checked. Am I missing some setting?

Living in North Yorkshire I get out of touch with fixed cameras so I find the caution sound very helpful.
