General information on the speed
limiter
A speed limiter (Speed Limiter) can be regar-
ded as a reverse cruise control - the driver reg-
ulates the speed using the accelerator pedal
but is prevented from accidentally exceeding a
pre-selected/set speed by the speed limiter.
Operation
Steering wheel keypad and display.
Speed limiter - On/Off.
Standby mode ceases and stored speed
resumes - each extra press gives +1 km/h.
Standby mode.
Activate and adjust the maximum speed
(each press gives +/-5 km/h).
Stored maximum speed (in brackets =
Standby mode).
Switch on and activateWhen the speed limiter is
active the display will show its
symbol in combination with
the set maximum speed.
Selection and storage of the
highest possible speed in the
memory can be made both during a journey
and while stationary.
While driving1.

152* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
General information on CC
The cruise control (CC – Cruise Control) helps
the driver maintain an even speed, resulting in
a more relaxed driving on motorways and long,
straight roads in regular traffic flows.
WARNING
The driver must always be observant with
regard to the traffic conditions and intervene
when the cruise control is not maintaining a
suitable speed and/or suitable distance.
The driver always bears ultimate responsi-
bility for ensuring that the vehicle is driven
safely.
Operation

Changing the speedTo change the stored speed:
•Press briefly on the steering wheel button,
or - most recent presses are stored
in memory.
A temporary increase in speed with the accel-
erator pedal, e.g. during overtaking, does not
affect the cruise control setting - the car returns
to the set speed when the accelerator pedal is
released.
NOTE
If any of the Cruise Control buttons are held
down for more than approx. 1 minute, it is
blocked and disabled. To be able to reacti-
vate Cruise Control, the car must be stop-

•the foot brake is used
•speed falls below approx. 30 km/h
•the clutch pedal is depressed
•the gear selector is moved to neutral posi-
tion (automatic gearbox)
•the driver maintains a speed higher than
the set speed for longer than 1 minute.
The driver must then regulate the speed.

Adaptive cruise control*
04
154* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
General information on ACC
The adaptive cruise control (ACC – Adaptive
Cruise Control) helps the driver maintain a safe
distance from the vehicle ahead. An adaptive
cruise control provides a more relaxing driving
experience on long journeys on motorways
and long straight main roads in smooth traffic
flows.
The driver sets the desired speed and time
interval to the car in front. When the radar
detector detects a slower vehicle in front of the
car, the speed is automatically adapted to that.
When the road is clear again the car returns to
the selected speed.
If the adaptive cruise control is switched off or
set to the standby mode and the car comes too
close to a vehicle in front, then the driver is
warned by Distance Warning (see page 165)
about the short distance.WARNING
The driver must always be observant with
regard to the traffic conditions and intervene
when the adaptive cruise control is not
maintaining a suitable speed or suitable dis-
tance.
The adaptive cruise control cannot handle
all traffic, weather and road conditions.
Read the whole of this section for informa-
tion on the limitations of the adaptive cruise
control. The driver must be familiar with this
information before using the adaptive cruise
control.
The driver always bears responsibility for
maintaining the correct distance and speed,
even when the adaptive cruise control is
being used.
IMPORTANT
Maintenance of adaptive cruise control
components must only be performed at a
workshop - an authorised Volvo workshop
is recommended.
Automatic gearboxCars with automatic gearbox have enhanced
functionality with the adaptive cruise control's
Queue Assistant, see page 159.
