What does the 'lim' mean on a BMW?

[RicardoAnn]

The 'lim' button on a BMW is the speed limit button. It is used for the speed limit function. After setting the speed value, the speed will be limited to a certain value, and even if you press the accelerator, the speed will not increase. This can be used to prevent speeding. The usage method is: 1. Press the 'lim' button once to turn on the 'lim' function. 2. Press it again to turn off the 'lim' function. Additional information: If the vehicle speed exceeds the set speed limit, the system will issue a warning. When reaching or exceeding the set speed limit under conditions such as downhill driving, the active braking mode will not be activated. If a speed limit lower than the current speed is set during driving, the vehicle will coast until the speed is below the limit. Since the system allows exceeding the speed limit under certain special circumstances, the driver can exceed the speed limit as needed, and in this case, the system will not issue an audible warning.
