JAECOO 7 SHS speed warning: both screen layouts

Supported models and trims

JAECOO 7 SHS/PHEV: Luxury / Black Luxury SHS-P, and earlier PHEV versions with the described equipment; this is not an SHS-H guide

UK manual review; not a hands-on vehicle test. A missing menu may reflect equipment or software; this guide does not promise a feature can be enabled.

Before you begin

Park safely before changing settings. Match the powertrain, equipment and screen layout to the handbook for your own car. A manual describes possible equipment; it is not confirmation that every UK trim has it.

Step-by-step instructions

1. Park and power on the car. Open Settings on the centre screen and select Driver assistance for the February 2026 layout.
2. Open Active Safety and locate Speed limit assistance. The manual groups speed limit reminder and over speed alarm here.
3. Use the labelled warning controls present on your screen. The newer handbook does not spell out a universal Icon-only mute sequence, so do not assume that the older options exist.
4. Confirm the choice on screen and check it again after restarting. If the labels do not match, use the earlier-layout instructions below only when your car shows those controls.

Earlier layout: October 2024 handbook

1. Open the audio system’s Driver Assistance settings.
2. Find Speed limit warning assistance mode. The handbook lists Close, Icon and Sound + Icon. Select Icon if you want a visual-only warning.
3. Use Speed limit assist ON/OFF only if you intend to change the whole SLA function. Check Speed limit change reminder and Overspeed warning separately.

A revision is not a software upgrade promise

SLA is marked if equipped in both manuals. The newer text describes a single sound at 5 km/h above the recognised limit; the earlier text describes a flashing/sounding icon above the limit. Do not use either statement as an allowed speeding margin. A manual’s issue date alone cannot identify the software installed on your car.

Troubleshooting

• The wrong limit appears: check the real signs. Clean the windscreen camera area as the handbook directs; report repeated misrecognition with the road, direction, displayed limit and software version.
• A beep remains: read the message. A speed-limit-change alert, a set-speed overspeed alarm and a recognised-limit warning are different functions.
• The setting returns: check it again after the next start. These handbook sections do not establish a permanent-off setting for every software version.

Safety and limitations

• Keep to the actual road speed limit even if the display shows a different limit or the warning is muted.
• Set preferences while parked. A speed-warning setting is not the same as cruise control or an active speed limiter.
• The camera and navigation information can be affected by obscured signs, weather, lighting and map information. Do not test the alarm by deliberately exceeding a limit.
