The back cover has all the major traffic signs shown graphically and what they mean. I would have never guessed the meaning of some.

Many of the the signs are pretty intuitive. The good thing is very few of them are specific to the country as they all use the international signage.
I haven't done the search, but I bet a google of international road signs would give you some additional info to what apperently comes in your ED package.
Just note that "Ausfahrt" signs in Germany mean "Exit" and aren't pointing to a town by that name...

This is the case unless you are on a priority road, where you will see a sign indicating that you are on a priority road (Vorfahrtstrassen-Schild).

I almost got stung by that one several times because I was looking for stripes painted on the road like they do in the UK.
