Driver support systemsCity Safety.
Select
Off.
If the engine is switched off, City Safety™ will reactivate when the engine is restarted.
WARNING
The laser sensor emits light when the igni- tion is in mode II or higher, even if City
Safety™ has been switched off.
To switch City Safety™ on again:
• Follow the same procedure as for switch- ing City Safety™ off but select
On.
Limitations
The sensor used by City Safety™ is designed to detect cars and other larger motor vehiclesahead of your vehicle in both daylight anddarkness.
WARNING
The laser sensor has certain limitations and its function may be reduced (or it maynot function at all) in conditions such asheavy rain or snowfall, or by dense fog orthick, blowing dust or snow. Condensa-tion, dirt, ice or snow on the windshieldmay also interfere with the sensor’s func-tion.
Objects such as warning flags hanging from long objects on the roof or accessories suchas auxiliary lights or protective arches on thefront of the vehicle that are higher than thehood may also impede the sensor’s function. Braking distance to the vehicle ahead increa- ses on slippery road surfaces, which mayreduce City Safety’s capacity to avoid a colli-sion. In situations like this, the DSTC system(see page 138) will help provide the best pos-sible braking capacity and stability. City Safety™ emits a laser beam and meas- ures the way in which the light is reflected.Therefore, vehicles or objects with low-reflec-tive surfaces may not be detected. Normally,the license plate and taillight reflectors givethe rear section of a vehicle ahead sufficientreflective surfaces to be detected.
NOTE
•Keep the windshield in front of the laser sensor free of ice, snow, dirt, etc.See page 159.
• Snow or ice on the hood deeper than2 inches (5 cm) may obstruct the sen-sor. Keep the hood free of ice andsnow.
• Do not mount or in any way attachanything on the windshield that couldobstruct the laser sensor.
Troubleshooting
If Windscreen Sensors blocked appears in
the information display, this indicates that the City Safety™ laser sensor is obstructed insome way and cannot detect vehicles aheadof you, which means that the system is notfunctioning. However, this message will not be displayed in all situations in which the sensor isobstructed. For this reason, the driver mustensure that the area of the windshield in frontof the sensor is always kept clean. The following table shows some of the situa- tions that can cause the message to be dis-played and suggested actions.

Collision warning with Full Auto-brake and Pedestrian Detection*
04
168* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
NOTE
If warnings are given too frequently, the warning distance can be reduced (seepage 166). This causes the system to pro-vide later warnings, which decreases thetotal number of warnings provided.
WARNING
• The system is not activated at speeds under approx. 2 mph (4 km/h). There-fore, it will not brake your vehicle if youapproach a vehicle ahead at very lowspeed, such as when parking.
• The driver's actions always have high-est priority and override the CollisionWarning system. This means that thesystem will not intervene in situationswhere the driver is actively steering,braking or pressing the acceleratorpedal, even if a collision is imminent.
• When Auto-brake has prevented a col-lision with a stationary object, yourvehicle will remain at a standstill forapprox. 1.5 seconds. If your vehiclehas been braked for a moving vehicleahead, your vehicle's speed will bereduced to the same speed as thatvehicle's.
The camera’s limitationsThe camera is used by Collision Warning with Auto-brake, Driver Alert Control (seepage 172), and Lane Departure Warning (seepage 175).
NOTE
•To help protect the camera in very hot conditions, it may be temporarilyswitched off for approximately 15minutes after the engine has beenstarted.
• Keep the section of the windshield infront of the camera clean and free ofice, snow, or condensation.
WARNING
•The camera has the same limitations as the human eye. In other words, its“vision is impaired” by adverseweather conditions such as heavysnowfall, dense fog, etc. These condi-tions may reduce the function of sys-tems that depend on the camera orcause these systems to temporarilystop functioning.
• Never place any objects, decals, etc.,on the windshield in front of the cam-era. This could reduce or block thecamera’s function, and could causeone or more of the systems that utilizethe camera to stop functioning.
• Strong sunlight, reflections from theroad surface, ice or snow covering theroad, a dirty road surface, or unclearlane marker lines may drasticallyreduce the camera’s capacity todetect the side of a lane, a pedestrianor another vehicle.

Collision warning with Full Auto-brake and Pedestrian Detection*

* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.169
Pedestrians
The system cannot identify all pedestrians
The Collision Warning system can only iden- tify and detect a pedestrian who is standingupright. This person can be standing still,walking or running. This means that the system has to be able to identify a person's head, arms, shoulders,legs, the upper and lower parts of the bodyand a person's pattern of movement whenwalking or running. If parts of the body are not visible to the cam- era, the system cannot detect the pedestrian. The following conditions apply:
• In order to detect a pedestrian, the sys- tem must have a full view of the person'sentire body and the person must be atleast 32 in. (80 cm) tall.
• The system cannot detect a pedestriancarrying a large object.
• The camera's capacity to see a pedes-trian at dawn or dusk is limited, much asit is for the human eye.
• The camera's function is deactivated andwill not detect a pedestrian in darkness orin tunnels, even if there is street lighting inthe area.
WARNING
• Collision Warning with Full Auto-brake and Pedestrian Detection is designedto be a supplementary driving aid. It isnot, however, intended to replace thedriver's attention and judgement. Thedriver is always responsible for operat-ing the vehicle in a safe manner.
• The system cannot detect all pedes-trians in all situations, such as in dark-ness/at night and cannot detect parti-ally hidden pedestrians, people whoare less than approx. 32 in. (80 cm)tall, or people wearing clothing thatobscures the contours of their bodies.
Fault tracing and actions
If the message Windscreen Sensors
blocked is displayed, this means that the
camera is obscured and cannot detect pedestrians, vehicles or road marker lines infront of the vehicle. This, in turn, means that Collision Warning with Full Auto-brake and Pedestrian Detec-tion, Lane Departure Warning, and DriverAlert Control will not have full functionality. The table lists possible causes for this mes- sage being displayed, and suitable actions.

Rear Park Assist Camera (PAC)*
04
* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.183
Using PAC
Activation
PAC is activated when the gear selector is moved to R if the system is selected in the
MY CAR menu system or by pressing the
CAM button in the center console. See page
197 for a description of the menu system. If the Volvo Navigation System (VNS) is in use, PAC will automatically override the navi-gation system to show the camera's imageon the screen instead of navigation informa-tion, for as long as reverse gear is selected.
ZoomThe camera can be useful when attaching atrailer. Press CAM to zoom in on the trailer
hitch (and press this button again to return tothe normal camera view). With the camera zoomed in on the trailerhitch, a guiding line showing the hitch's pathtoward the trailer will be projected. This fea-ture can be activated in the
MY CAR menu.
See page 197 for a description of the menusystem. The guiding lines for the wheels (seethe following section "Guiding lines") and forthe trailer hitch cannot be displayed at thesame time. If the camera shows an enlarged (zoomed) image, turn TUNE counterclockwise, or press
EXIT , CAM or OK to return to a normal view.
DeactivationMove the gear selector from R to another
position. There is a slight delay in the PACsystem, which means that the view frombehind the vehicle will remain on the screenfor approximately 15 seconds after the gearselector has been moved from the R position
or until the vehicle reaches a forward speedof 6 mph (10 km/h). The screen will thenrevert to the mode that it was in before R was
selected and will, for example, display navi-gation system information.
NOTE
If any button on the center console control panel is pressed, the camera image willdisappear from the display. Pressing CAM
will return the camera image to the display.
Guiding lines
The lines on the screen are projected as if they were a path on the ground behind thevehicle and are affected by the way in whichthe steering wheel is turned. This enables thedriver to see path the vehicle will take, even ifhe/she turns the steering wheel while backingup.
NOTE
When backing up with a trailer, the guiding lines show the path that the vehicle will
take, not the trailer.
