Limitations of Park Assist Pilot *
The Active parking assistance (Park Assist Pilot – PAP) function may have limitations in certainsituations.
Parking is discontinuedA parking sequence will be discontinued:
• if the driver moves the steering wheel
• if the car is driven too quickly - above 7 km/h (4 mph)
• if the driver presses
Cancel in the centre
display
• when the anti-lock brakes or the Electronic stability control are engaged - e.g. when awheel loses grip on a slippery road.
Where applicable, a message in the centre dis-play states the reason for a parking sequencebeing discontinued.
NOTE
Dirt, ice and snow covering the sensors will reduce their function and may prevent meas-urement.
IMPORTANT
Under certain circumstances, PAP is unable to find parking spaces - one reason for thismay be the fact that there is interference withthe sensors from external sound sourceswhich emit the same ultrasound frequenciesas those with which the system works. Examples of such sources include horns, wet tyres on asphalt, pneumatic brakes andexhaust noises from motorcycles etc.
Driver responsibilityThe driver should bear in mind that the PAP is an aid – not an infallible, fully-automatic function.The driver must therefore be prepared to inter-rupt a parking step. There are also a few details to bear in mind while parking, e.g.:
• PAP bases itself on the locations of vehiclesalready parked nearby - if they are inap-propriately parked, your own car's tyres andwheel rims may be damaged by contact withthe kerb.
• PAP is designed for parking on straightstreets - not sharp curves or bends. For thisreason, make sure the car is parallel to theparking space when PAP measures thespace. •
Parking spaces on narrow streets are notalways feasible, since the space required formanoeuvring may not be sufficient.
• Bear in mind that the front of the car mayswing out towards oncoming traffic whilebeing parked.
• Objects situated higher than the detectionareas of the sensors are not taken intoaccount when calculating the parkingmanoeuvre. This may cause PAP to turn intothe parking space too early, and hence suchparking spaces should be avoided.
• The driver is responsible for determiningwhether the space selected by PAP is suita-ble for parking.
• Use approved tyres 28
with the correct tyre
pressure - this affects the ability of PAP topark the car.
• Heavy rain or snow may cause the system tomeasure the parking space incorrectly.
• Do not use PAP if snow chains or a sparewheel are fitted.
• Do not use PAP if cargo items are protrudingfrom the car.
• Perpendicular parking spaces may be missedor offered unnecessarily if one parked car isprotruding more than other parked cars.
28
"Approved tyres" refers to tyres of the same type and make as those fitted new on delivery from the factory.

Alcohol lock *
The function of the alcohol lock is to prevent the car from being driven by individuals under theinfluence of alcohol. Before the engine can bestarted the driver must take a breath test thatverifies that he/she is not under the influence ofalcohol. Alcohol lock calibration takes place inaccordance with each market's limit value inforce for driving legally.
The car has an interface for the electrical con- nection of the different makes and models ofalcohol lock recommended by Volvo. The inter-face facilitates alcohol lock connection, and givesthe option of an integrated function includingmessages related to the alcohol lock in the car'smain display. For information about a specificalcohol lock, please refer to its owner's manual.
WARNING
The alcohol lock is an aid and does not exempt the driver from responsibility. It isalways the responsibility of the driver to besober and to drive the car safely.
Bypass of the alcohol lock *
In the event of an emergency situation or the alcohol lock is out of order, it is possible tobypass the alcohol lock in order to drive the car.
For deactivation via the alcohol lock, see the sep- arate instructions for that specific lock. Activating the bypass function (Bypass)
NOTE
All bypass activation is logged and saved in the memory in the alcohol lock's control unit.It is not possible to undo a bypass.
The message, Blow into alcolock Bypass
instead?, is shown in the screen:
–Select Bypass by pressing once on the O
button on the steering wheel's right-hand keypad.
> The alcohol lock is now bypassed and the car can be started.
The number of bypasses possible before service is required is selected during alcohol lock instal-lation.

Ignition positions The car's electrical system can be set in different levels/positions and in this way make the differ-ent functions available.
In order to facilitate the use of a limited number of functions with the engine switched off, thecar's electrical system can be set in 3 different levels - 0, I and II. These levels are described
with the denomination "ignition position" throughout the owner's manual. The following table shows the functions available in each ignition position/level:
Level Functions
0 •Odometer, clock and temperature gauge are illuminated.
• Power seats can be adjusted.
• The power windows can be used.
• The centre display is started andcan be used.

Gearbox
The gearbox is part of the car's driveline (power transmission) between engine and drive wheels.The function of the gearbox is to change thegear ratio depending on speed and powerrequirements.
There are two main types of gearbox, manual and automatic. The manual gearbox has six gears. The automatic gearbox can have either eight gears or six gearsdepending on which engine the car is equippedwith. The number of gear changes means thatthe engine's torque and power range can beused effectively. It is also possible to select gears manually with the automatic gearbox. The driver display respec-tively shows which gear or gear position is cur-rently in use.
IMPORTANT
To prevent damage to any drive system com- ponents, the working temperature of thegearbox is checked. If there is a risk of over-heating, a warning symbol illuminates in thedriver display and a text message is shown -follow the recommendation given.
Symbols in the driver displayIf a fault should occur in the gearbox, the driver display shows a symbol and a message.

Gear positions for automatic gearbox
With an automatic gearbox, the system chooses the gear so that driving is optimal. The gearboxalso has a manual gearshift mode.
Gear positions in the driver display
The driver display shows the gear selector's posi- tion:
P, R, N, D or M.
In manual gearshift mode, the gear being used is also shown.
Gear positions
Park position - P
Select the P position when the car is parked or
when starting the engine. The car must be sta- tionary when the park position is selected. To be able to move the gear selector from thepark position, the brake pedal must be depressed and the ignition position must be
II.
The gearbox is mechanically blocked when the P
position is engaged. Apply the parking brake first when the car is parked.
WARNING
Always use the parking brake when parking on an inclined surface. Engaging a gear or the automatic transmission's P position is not suf-
ficient to hold the car stationary in all situa- tions.
NOTE
The gear selector must be in P position to
allow the car to be locked and alarmed.
Reverse position - R
Select position R to reverse. The car must be sta-
tionary when reverse position is selected.
Neutral position - N
No gear is engaged and the engine can be started. Apply the parking brake if the car is sta- tionary with the gear selector in N position.
To be able to change from the neutral position to another gear position, the brake pedal must be depressed and the ignition position must be II.

Drive position - D
D is the normal driving position. Shifting up and
down takes place automatically based on the level of acceleration and speed. The car must be stationary when changing gear from R position to
D position.
Manual gearshift mode - M
The manual gearshift mode can be selected at any time while driving. The car engine-brakeswhen the accelerator pedal is released. Select manual gearshift mode by moving the gear selector sideways from position D to the
end position at " ±". The driver display shows
which gear is engaged at the time.
• Press the gear selector forwards to "
+"
(plus) to change up one step and release it.
• Press the gear selector backwards to "
–"
(minus) to change down one step and release it.
manual gearshift mode in the driver display 2
.
The gearbox automatically shifts down if the speed decreases to a level lower than appropri-ate for the selected gear, in order to avoid jerkingand stalling. To return to automatic gear changing, press the gear selector sideways to the end position at D.
Kick-downWhen the accelerator pedal is pressed all the way to the floor (beyond the position normallyregarded as full acceleration) a lower gear isimmediately engaged. This is known as kick-down. If the accelerator is released from the kick-down position, the gearbox automatically changes up. Kick-down is used when maximum accelerationis needed, such as for overtaking.
Safety function
To prevent over-revving of the engine, the gear- box control program has a protective downshiftinhibitor. The gearbox does not permit downshifting/kick- down which would result in an engine speed highenough to damage the engine. Nothing happensif the driver still tries to shift down in this way athigh engine speed – the original gear remainsengaged. When kick-down is activated the car can change one or more gears at a time depending onengine speed. The car changes up when theengine reaches its maximum speed in order toprevent damage to the engine.
