Warning chimes while driving

I have a 16 GLE AMG 63S SUV - on a recent trip I started to hear "chimes" on the freeway (had some friends along so first time not playing loud tunes on a trip) - I thought it was related to the speed signs and thought it must be alerting me to speed changes - however, this was not always the case - I searched the owners manual to no avail - anyone here know what these "chimes" are warning/telling me?

Thanks, Ron

Any indicators warnings pop up on center dash? Usually when I get the Distronic vehicle warning it's shows so quick on the center dash I cant read it or know exactly what it warned me about.

I'm with you as I do not see anything pop up - however, this also chimes with or without the cruise on so that is what has me confused for sure!

Warning Chimes While Driving

In my new 2019 C300W, I also get warning chimes with no obvious explanation. From my observations, I think that many warn of upcoming speed limit changes. I also get a warning triple chime, which I believe herald an upcoming school zone.

On a related note, I seem to get my over-the-speed-limit warning at 3mph above limit, in spite of the fact that I have it set for 5. Anyone else?
