Since having a software update at the dealer, every journey is interupted by the warning message "Traffic Hazard Alert is Currently Resticted"
What does this mean?
How can I stop the message?

Thanks

I think I have now solved the problem.
It related to the Car2X communication system. By turning this on the warning no longer appears. The only worry now is that I am not quite sure what this does both in sending and receiving data. It appears to be a limited range of 800 metres, so as far as I can see is not much use, but I don't like the idea of my position and information being broadcast.

I don't believe that for one minute. The number of times dummies have pulled out in front of me I'm convinced my car is invisible! :D
