Main beam flashMove the stalk switch gently towards the steer-
ing wheel to the position for main beam flash.Main beam comes on until the stalk switch is
released.
Dipped beamWhen the engine is started, dipped beam is
activated automatically2 if the headlamp con-
trol is in position
. If necessary, auto-
matic dipped beam for this position can be
deactivated by a workshop. Volvo recom-
mends that you contact an authorised Volvo
workshop.
In position
dipped beam is always
switched on when the engine is running or
when key position II is active.
Main beamMain beam can be activated when the head-
lamp control is in position 2 or .
Activate/deactivate main beam by moving the
stalk switch towards the steering wheel to the
end position and release. Alternatively, the
main beam can be deactivated by a light press
of the stalk switch toward the steering wheel.
When main beam has been activated the sym-
bol
illuminates in the combined instru-
ment panel.
Main beam with automatic activation -
AHB*
Main beam with automatic activation (Active
High Beam - AHB) is a function which uses a
camera sensor at the top edge of the wind-
screen to detect the headlamp beams of
oncoming traffic or the rear lights of vehicles in
front, and then switches from main beam to
dipped beam. The lights are switched back to
main beam a second or so after the camera
sensor no longer detects any such light.
In cars with this function the headlamp control
has another design, see page 87.
This function can be activated when the head-
lamp control is in position
. For activation
to take place, the engine must have been run-
ning for at least 20 seconds and the speed of
the car must be 20 km/h or higher.
2Applies to certain markets, for headlamp control without AUTO mode.

Activate/deactivate AHB by moving the left-
hand stalk switch towards the steering wheel
to the end position and release. Deactivation
when main beam is on means that the lights
switch directly to dipped beam.
Headlamp control and stalk switch.
When AHB has been activated the symbol
illuminates in the combined instru-
ment panel's display. When main beam has
been activated the
symbol also illumi-
nates in the combined instrument panel.
NOTE
Keep the windscreen surface in front of the
camera sensor clean from ice, snow, mist
and dirt.
Do not attach or fit anything to the wind-
screen in front of the camera sensor, as this
could reduce or prevent the function of one
or more camera-dependent systems.
If the message AHB temporary unavailableis shown in the combined instrument panel's
display then you have to switch manually
between main and dipped beam. However, the
headlamp control may nevertheless be in posi-
tion
. The same applies if the message
Windscreen Sensors blocked and the
symbol are shown. The sym-
bol goes out when these messages are shown.
AHB may be temporarily unavailable e.g. in sit-
uations with dense fog or heavy rain. When
AHB becomes available again, or the wind-
screen sensors are no longer covered, themessage goes out and the
symbol illu-
minates.
WARNING
AHB is an aid for using optimum light com-
position when conditions are favourable.
The driver always bears responsibility for
manually switching between main and
dipped beam when traffic situations or
weather conditions so require.

IMPORTANT
Examples of when manual switching
between main and dipped beam may be
required:
•In heavy rain or dense fog
•In snow flurries or slush
•In moonlight
•When driving in poorly lit built-up areas
•When the traffic ahead has weak light-
ing
•If there are pedestrians on or beside the
road
•If there are highly reflective objects such
as signs in the vicinity of the road
•When the lighting from oncoming traffic
is obscured by e.g. a crash barrier
•When there is traffic on connecting
roads
•On the brow of a hill or in a hollow
•In sharp bends.
For more information on the limitations of the
camera sensor, see page 178.
Tunnel detection*In cars with rain sensor* the rain sensor detects
the changed light conditions when the car ise.g. driven into a tunnel, and dipped beam is
activated within a second in markets without
automatic dipped beam. Dipped beam is deac-
tivated approx. 20 seconds after the car has
been driven out of the tunnel. Note! - The head-
lamp control must be in
position for tun-
nel detection to work.
Active Xenon headlamps - ABL*
Headlamp pattern with function deactivated (left)
and activated (right) respectively.
If the car is equipped with active Xenon head-
lamps Active Bending Lights - ABL the light
from the headlamps follows the steering wheel
movement in order to provide maximum light-
ing in bends and junctions and so provide
increased safety.The function is activated automatically when
the car is started. In the event of a fault in the
function the
symbol illuminates in the
combined instrument panel at the same time
as the information display shows an explana-
tory text and a further illuminated symbol.

Collision Warning with Auto Brake & Pedestrian Protection*
04
178* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
Collision Warning with Auto Brake is tempo-
rarily deactivated with reverse gear engaged.
Collision Warning with Auto Brake is not acti-
vated at low speeds - under 4 km/h, which is
why the system does not intervene in situations
where the car is approaching a vehicle in front
very slowly, e.g. when parking.
In situations where the driver demonstrates
active, aware driving behaviour, a collision
warning may be postponed slightly in order to
keep unnecessary warnings to a minimum.
When Auto Brake has prevented a collision
with a stationary object the car remains sta-
tionary for a maximum of 1.5 seconds. If the car
is braked for a vehicle in front that is moving,
then speed is reduced to the same speed as
that maintained by the vehicle in front.
On a car with manual gearbox the engine stops
when Auto Brake has stopped the car, unless
the driver manages to depress the clutch pedal
beforehand.
Camera sensor limitationsThe car’s camera sensor is also used - as well
as by Collision Warning with Auto Brake - by
the functions:
•Automatic main/dipped beam dimming -
see page 88
•Road sign information - see page 148
•Driver Alert Control – see page 182
•Lane Departure Warning – see page 185.
NOTE
Keep the windscreen surface in front of the
camera sensor clean from ice, snow, mist
and dirt.
Do not attach or fit anything to the wind-
screen in front of the camera sensor, as this
could reduce or prevent the function of one
or more camera-dependent systems.
The camera sensors have limitations similar to
the human eye, i.e. they "see" worse in dark-
ness, heavy snowfall or rain and in thick fog for
example. Under such conditions the functions
of camera-dependent systems could be sig-
nificantly reduced or temporarily disengaged.
Strong oncoming light, reflections in the car-
riageway, snow or ice on the road surface, dirty
road surfaces or unclear lane markings could
also significantly reduce camera sensor func-
tion when it is used to scan the carriageway
and detect pedestrians and other vehicles.
The field of vision of the camera sensor is lim-
ited, which is why pedestrians and vehicles
cannot be detected in some situations, or they
are detected later than anticipated.
During very high temperatures the camera is
temporarily switched off for about 15 minutesafter the engine is started in order to protect
camera functionality.
Fault tracing and action
If the display shows the message Windscreen
Sensors blocked then this means that the
camera sensor is blocked and cannot detect
pedestrians, vehicles or road markings in front
of the car.
At the same time, this means that - besides
Collision Warning with Auto Brake - the Auto-
matic main/dipped beam dimming, Road sign
information, Driver Alert Control and Lane
Departure Warning functions will not have full
functionality either.
The following table presents possible causes
for a message being shown along with the
appropriate action.
