Before the usage of AVs in real-life conditions, the users need to be informed about the functionalities to improve their knowledge of the ADF. The approaches taken to inform the users on how to use the ADF correctly and within the scope of the ODD (e.g. instructions, training) need to be decided in accordance with the technical capabilities of the ADF. The right information about the functional limitations can support users to comprehend the limits of the ADF during a driving task so that they can use the AVs safely and appropriately. Notification about the consequences of system misuse can significantly reduce misuse by users (Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, 2018)

Are users of the ADF informed about the functional limitations (including the ODD limits)?
Sub-Questions
- Are users of the ADF informed about their responsibilities (driver information)?
- Are users of the ADF informed about their correct / appropriate interaction with the ADF to avoid misuse?
