Adaptive cruise control*
04
* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.159
With a further short press the cruise control is
deactivated. The set speed is cleared and can-
not be resumed with the
button.
Queue Assistant
In cars with automatic gearbox Adaptive cruise
control is supplemented with the Queue Assis-
tant function (also referred to as "Queue
Assist").
Queue Assistant has the following functions:
•Extended speed range - also below 30 km/
h and at standstill
•Change of target
•Automatic braking ceases when stationary
•Automatic activation parking brake.
Note that the lowest programmable speed for
the cruise control is 30 km/h - even though the
cruise control is capable of following another
vehicle down to a standstill, a lower speed
cannot be selected.
Extended speed range
NOTE
In order to activate the cruise control the
driver's door must be closed and the driver
must be wearing the seatbelt.
With automatic gearbox the cruise control can
follow another vehicle within the range of
0-200 km/h.
NOTE
Activation of the cruise control below
30 km/h requires a vehicle in front within a
reasonable distance.
For shorter stops in connection with inching in
slow traffic or at traffic lights driving is auto-
matically resumed if the stops do not exceed
about 3 seconds - if it takes longer before the
car in front starts moving again then the cruise
control is set in standby mode with automatic
braking. The driver must then re-activate the
cruise control in one of the following ways:
•Press the steering wheel button .
or
•Depress the accelerator pedal.
> The cruise control will then resume follow-
ing the vehicle in front.
NOTE
Queue Assist can hold the car stationary for
a maximum of 4 minutes - then the parking
brake is applied and Cruise Control is dis-
engaged.
•The driver has to release the parking
brake before the cruise control can be
reactivated.
Change of target
If the target vehicle in front suddenly turns then
there may be stationary traffic in front.
When the cruise control is following another
vehicle at speeds below 30 km/h and changes
target from a moving to a stationary vehicle, the
cruise control will slow down for the stationary
vehicle.

City Safety™
04
169
If the difference in speed between the vehicles
is greater than 15 km/h then City Safety™ may
not prevent the collision on its own. To obtain
full brake force, the driver must depress the
brake pedal. This could then make it possible
to prevent a collision, even at speed differen-
ces above 15 km/h.
When the function is activated and brakes, the
instrument panel display shows a message to
the effect that the function is/has been active.
NOTE
The brake lights come on when City
Safety™ brakes the car.
Operation
NOTE
The City Safety™ function is always ena-
bled after the engine has been started via
key position I and II (see page 78 on key
positions).
On and OffIn certain situations, it may advisable to disable
City Safety™, e.g. where leafy branches could
sweep over the bonnet and/or windscreen.
After starting the engine City Safety™ can be
deactivated as follows:
•Using MY CAR on the centre console dis-
play screen with its menu system, search
and locate Settings
Car settings
Driver support systemsCity Safety.
Select the
Off option. For more information
on the menu system MY CAR, see
page 202.
However, the function will be enabled the
next time the engine is started, regardless
of whether the system was enabled or dis-
abled when the engine was switched off.
WARNING
The laser sensor also transmits laser light
when City Safety™ is disabled manually.
To enable City Safety™ again:
•Follow the same procedure as for disa-
bling, but select the On option.
Limitations
The sensor in City Safety™ is designed to
detect cars and other large vehicles in front of
the car irrespective of whether it is day or night.
However, the sensor has limitations and has
poorer functionality - or none at all - in e.g.
heavy snowfall or rain, dense fog, dust storms
or snow flurries. Mist, dirt, ice or snow on the
windscreen may disrupt the function.Low-hanging objects, e.g. a flag/pennant for
projecting load, or accessories such as auxili-
ary lamps and bull bars that are higher than the
bonnet limit the function.
The laser light from the sensor in City
Safety™ measures how the light is reflected.
The sensor cannot detect objects with low
reflection capacity. The rear sections of the
vehicle generally reflect the light sufficiently
thanks to the number plate and rear light reflec-
tors.
On slippery road surfaces the braking distance
is extended, which may reduce the capacity of
City Safety™ to avoid a collision. In such sit-
uations the ABS and DSTC systems will pro-
vide best possible braking force with main-
tained stability.
When your own car is reversing, City Safety™
is temporarily deactivated.
City Safety™ is not activated at low speeds -
under 4 km/h, which is why the system does
not intervene in situations where a vehicle in
front is being approached very slowly, e.g.
when parking.
Driver commands are always prioritised, which
is why City Safety™ does not intervene in sit-
uations where the driver is steering or acceler-
ating in a clear manner, even if a collision is
unavoidable.

Collision Warning with Auto Brake & Pedestrian Protection*
04
174* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
The collision warning system and City
Safety™ complement each other. For more
information on City Safety™, see page 168.
1 - Collision warningThe driver is first warned of a potentially immi-
nent collision.
The collision warning system detects pedes-
trians, stationary vehicles as well as vehicles
driving in the same direction in front of the car.
If there is a risk of collision with a pedestrian or
a vehicle, the driver's attention is attracted with
a flashing red warning signal (no. [1] in the illus-
tration on page 173) and an acoustic signal.
2 - Brake support2
If the risk of collision has increased further after
the collision warning then the brake support is
activated.
This means that the brake system is prepared
for rapid braking by applying the brakes lightly,
which may feel like a slight jolt.
If the brake pedal is depressed sufficiently
quickly then full brake function is implemented.
Brake support also reinforces the driver's brak-
ing if the system considers that the braking is
not sufficient to avoid a collision.
3 - Auto Brake2
The automatic brake function is activated last.
If in this situation the driver has not yet started
to take evasive action and the risk of collision
is imminent then the automatic braking func-
tion is deployed - this takes place irrespective
of whether or not the driver brakes. Braking
then takes place with full brake force in order
to reduce collision speed, or with limited brake
force if it is sufficient to avoid a collision.WARNING
The collision warning system does not
engage in all driving situations or traffic,
weather or road conditions. The collision
warning system does not react to vehicles
driving in another direction to the car or to
animals.
Warning only activated in the event of a high
risk for collision. This section "Function"
and the section "Limitations" inform about
limitations that the driver must be aware of
before using the Collision Warning system
with Auto Brake.
Warnings and brake interventions for
pedestrians are switched off at vehicle
speeds exceeding 80 km/h.
Warnings and brake interventions for
pedestrians do not work in darkness and
tunnels - not even when streetlights are lit.
The auto-brake function can prevent a col-
lision or reduce collision speed. To ensure
full brake performance, the driver should
always depress the brake pedal - even when
the car auto-brakes.
Never wait for a collision warning. The driver
is always responsible that the correct dis-
tance and speed are maintained - even
when the collision warning system with
auto-brake is used.
2With system Level 2 only.

Collision Warning with Auto Brake & Pedestrian Protection*
04
* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.175 Detection of pedestrians
Optimal examples of what the system regards as
pedestrians with clear body contours.
Optimal performance of the system requires
that the system function that detects pedes-
trians receives as unambiguous information as
possible about the contours of the body - this
implies the opportunity to identify the head,
arms, shoulders, legs, upper and lower body
combined with a normal human pattern of
movement.
If large parts of the body are not visible to the
camera then the system cannot detect a
pedestrian.
•In order for a pedestrian to be detected he/
she must appear full-length and have a
height of at least 80 cm.
•The system cannot detect a pedestrian
carrying larger items.
•The camera sensor's ability to see pedes-
trians at dusk and dawn is limited - just like
the human eye.
•The camera sensor's capacity to detect
pedestrians is deactivated when driving in
darkness and tunnels - even when street-
lights are lit.
WARNING
Collision Warning with Auto Brake & Pedes-
trian Detection is an assistance tool.
This function cannot detect all pedestrians
in all situations and it cannot see e.g. parti-
ally obscured pedestrians, people in cloth-
ing that hides the contours of the body or
pedestrians shorter than 80 cm.
•The driver is always responsible that the
vehicle is driven properly and with a
safety distance adapted to the speed.
Operation
Settings are made from MY CAR via the centre
console display screen and menu system. For
information on how the menu system is used,
see page 202.
NOTE
The Brake Support and Auto Brake func-
tions are always enabled - they cannot be
deactivated.
On and OffTo select whether the collision warning system
should be switched on or off:
•Use the menu system MY CAR via the
centre console display to search for
Settings
Car settingsDriver
support systems
Collision Warning -
there, select
On or Off.
An activated function is tested every time the
engine is started by briefly illuminating the sep-
arate lights for the warning lamp (no. [1] in the
illustration on page 173).
When starting the engine, the setting that was
selected when the engine was switched off is
obtained automatically.

Driving with a trailer
07
298* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
General
Payload depends on the car's kerb weight. The
total of the weight of the passengers and all
accessories, e.g. towbar, reduces the car's
payload by a corresponding weight. For more
detailed information on weights, see
page 373.
If the towing bracket is mounted by Volvo, then
the car is delivered with the necessary equip-
ment for driving with a trailer.
•The car's towing bracket must be of an
approved type.
•If the towbar is retrofitted, check with your
Volvo dealer that the car is fully equipped
for driving with a trailer.
•Distribute the load on the trailer so that the
weight on the towing bracket complies
with the specified maximum towball load.
•Increase the tyre pressure to the recom-
mended pressure for a full load. For tyre
pressure label location, see page 317.
•The engine is loaded more heavily than
usual when driving with a trailer.
•Do not tow a heavy trailer when the car is
brand new. Wait until it has been driven at
least 1000 km.
•The brakes are loaded much more than
usual on long and steep downhill slopes.
Downshift to a lower gear and adjust your
speed.
•For safety reasons, the maximum permit-
ted speed for the car when coupled with a
trailer should not be exceeded. Follow the
regulations in force for the permitted
speeds and weights.
•Maintain a low speed when driving with a
trailer up long, steep ascents.
•Avoid driving with a trailer on inclines of
more than 12%.
Trailer cableAn adapter is required if the car's towing
bracket has 13 pin electrics and the trailer has
7 pin electrics. Use an adapter cable approved
by Volvo. Make sure the cable does not drag
on the ground.
Direction indicators and brake lights on
the trailer
If any of the trailer's lamps for direction indica-
tors are broken, then the combined instrument
panel's symbol for direction indicators flashes
faster than normal and the display shows the
text
Bulb fail - Ind. signal trailer.
If any of the trailer's lamps for the brake light
are broken then the
Bulb fail - Stop lamp
trailer text is shown.
Level control*The rear shock absorbers maintain a constant
height irrespective of the car's load (up to the
maximum permissible weight). When the car isstationary the rear of the car lowers slightly,
which is normal.
Trailer weightsFor information on Volvo's permitted trailer
weights, see page 374.
NOTE
The stated maximum permitted trailer
weights are those permitted by Volvo.
National vehicle regulations can further limit
trailer weights and speeds. Towbars can be
certified for higher towing weights than the
car can actually tow.
WARNING
Follow the stated recommendations for
trailer weights. Otherwise, the car and trailer
may be difficult to control in the event of
sudden movement and braking.
Manual gearbox
OverheatingWhen driving with a trailer in hilly terrain in a hot
climate there may be a risk of overheating.
•Do not run the engine at higher revolutions
than 4500 rpm (diesel engines: 3500 rpm)
- otherwise the oil temperature may
become too high.

09 Maintenance and service
Lamps09
335 General
All bulbs are specified, see page 339. The fol-
lowing list contains locations of bulbs and
other light sources that are specialised or
unsuitable for changing except at a workshop:
•Active Xenon headlamps - ABL (Xenon
lamps)
•Direction indicators, door mirrors
•Approach lighting, door mirrors
•Courtesy lighting
•Glovebox lighting
•General interior lighting in the roof
•Reading lamps
•Side position, position lamps rear
•Brake light
•LED lights, general
WARNING
On cars with Xenon headlamps, the
replacement of Xenon lamps must be car-
ried out at a workshop - an authorised Volvo
workshop is recommended. Working with
Xenon lamps demands extreme caution
because the headlamp is equipped with a
high voltage unit.
WARNING
The car’s electrical system must be in key
position 0 when replacing bulbs, see
page 78
IMPORTANT
Never touch the glass part of the bulbs with
your fingers. Grease and oils from your fin-
gers are vaporised by the heat, coating the
reflector and then causing damage.
Headlamps frontAll of the headlamp bulbs are replaced via the
engine compartment. Loosen and remove the
whole headlamp.
Removing the headlamp1. Set the car's electrical system in key posi-
tion 0, see page 78:
2. (First illustration)
Pull out the headlamp's locking pins.
Release the headlamp by alternately
tilting and pulling it out.
IMPORTANT
Do not pull the electrical cable, only the con-
nector.
