Can you permanently turn off the red light camera warning?

What magic is this? Never heard of it before.

 

What year is your car? Anybody else think this is a thing?

 

Never heard of it either. Are you running Android auto or something with a map app that does that?

 

Ya, there's no function like that on a Kona and certainly not a camera-based one. You're either mistaking another (coincidental) alarm with a red light camera notification or you're running something else that's doing it. It's not the cars' sensors triggering it.

 

My 21 U.S Ultimate has red light camera warnings. I don’t mind it. I am a fellow Prine fan.

 

This is literally the first I've heard if this. How on Earth would a car recognize red light cameras? I mean, my EYES don't recognize them half the time!

*Googled... It's a function of the navigation system and relies upon preprogrammed waypoints. It's not sensor based. Solution: turn it off - get a map.

 

It's not a function of the car, but rather the maps used by navigation.
My Car-Play navigation alerted me when I was in NYC last month. (I'm a simple country man, living in a city with about half-dozen stop-lights, and no fancy traffic enforcement cameras, so it never happened in the previous 2 years of driving.)

 

Hi, yes you can turn it off or you can turn down the volume of her voice. Its in the VDU display settings somewhere. I turned mine down after it yelled at me on my first drive too. Cant exactly remember where, but I'll have another look and report.

 

Go to 'all menus' on the big screen. Select 'sound' , then you may need to scroll down to 'guidance', then select 'guidance volume'. Then scroll down till you find 'alerts' then make the volume as low as possible. I couldn't find a way to actually disable it though.

 

I'm glad my 2020 doesn't have that "feature". Nothing should be allowed to interrupt a John Prine song

 

It does the same on my 2020 Kona.
It's sort of helpful, but the risk is in relying on the map to always have all the latest data - which it doesn't.
I don't run red lights either, but in NSW, most of our red light cameras are also permanent speed cameras and with revenue down due to the lockdowns, they've reduced the tolerance for overspeed.

 

Only thing I know of that gives RED Light Warning, is WAZE
My 2019 Ultimate, (all extras/options) does not have this feature. I have the most current GPS upgrade....I think?

 

Hi, I'm new and lurking as still waiting for my Elite. Just comment on Red Light camera warnings. I use Tom Tom in my 2010 Prius (400,000 kms battery still fine) and it does red lights and speed cameras. looking forward to going full EV

 

New 2022 Kona owner, Haven't had much chance to fiddle and experiment. This afternoon map guidance actually spoke and told me that a red light camera was ahead. Woke in fright. Was quite contentedly napping with all that automatic stuff caring for me.

But seriously the one thing I hate about all modern cars is all the audible warnings. Would love to be able to turn them off. I really don't want to be annoyed by the same welcome tune over and over again during the ten years and 100s of thousands of Kms I will drive this vehicle. Thank goodness I can turn the lane assist thingy off. I like cutting corners.
