208 body and the person must be at least 32 in. (80 cm) tall.
• The system cannot detect a pedestrian carry-ing a large object.
• The camera's capacity to see a pedestrian atdawn or dusk is limited, much as it is for thehuman eye.
• The camera's function is deactivated and willnot detect a pedestrian in darkness or in tun-nels, even if there is street lighting in thearea.
WARNING
•Pedestrian and Cyclist Detection with Full Auto Brake is designed to be a supple-mentary driving aid. It is not, however,intended to replace the driver's attentionand judgement. The driver is alwaysresponsible for operating the vehicle in asafe manner.
• The system cannot detect all pedestriansin all situations, such as in darkness/atnight and cannot detect partially hiddenpedestrians, people who are less thanapprox. 32 in. (80 cm) tall, or peoplewearing clothing that obscures the con-tours of their bodies.

Collision warning
* – limitations
Strong sunlight, reflections, extreme light con- trasts, the use of sunglasses, or if the driver is notlooking straight ahead may make the visual warn-ing signal in the windshield difficult to see. Forthis reason, always activate the audible warningsignal. Slippery driving conditions increase braking dis- tance, which can reduce the system's capacity toavoid a collision. In these conditions, the ABS andstability systems provide the best possible brak-ing effect while helping to maintain stability.
NOTE
The visual warning signal may be temporarily disengaged in the event of high passengercompartment temperature due to strong sun-light, etc. If this occurs, the audible warningsignal will be used, even if it has been deacti-vated in the menu system.

WARNING
•Always remove the remote key from the ignition slot when leaving the vehicle and ensure that the ignition in mode
0 (see
Ignition modes (p. 74) for information about the ignition modes).
• On vehicles with the optional keylessdrive, never remove the remote key fromthe vehicle while it is being driven ortowed.
• Always place the gear selector in Parkand apply the parking brake before leav-ing the vehicle. Never leave the vehicleunattended with the engine running.
• Always open garage doors fully beforestarting the engine inside a garage toensure adequate ventilation. The exhaustgases contain carbon monoxide, which isinvisible and odorless but very poisonous.
NOTE
•After a cold start, idle speed may be noticeably higher than normal for a shortperiod. This is done to help bring compo-nents in the emission control system totheir normal operating temperature asquickly as possible, which enables themto control emissions and help reduce the vehicle's impact on the environment 3
.
CAUTION
• When starting in cold weather, the auto- matic transmission may shift up at slightlyhigher engine speeds than normal untilthe automatic transmission fluid reachesnormal operating temperature.
• Do not race a cold engine immediatelyafter starting. Oil flow may not reachsome lubrication points fast enough toprevent engine damage.
• The engine should be idling when youmove the gear selector. Never accelerateuntil after you feel the transmissionengage. Accelerating immediately afterselecting a gear will cause harsh engage-ment and premature transmission wear.
• Selecting
P or N when idling at a stand-
still for prolonged periods of time will helpprevent overheating of the automatictransmission fluid.

ment panel will be displayed for several seconds when the engine starts and the indicator light inthe On/Off button will remain illuminated whilethe function is activated. All of the vehicle's systems will function while the engine is auto-stopped, although the function ofcertain systems may reduced at this time. Forexample, blower speed and high infotainmentsystem volume may be reduced to help conservethe battery's capacity.
Auto-stopping the engine
Normally, when Start/Stop is activated and the brakes are applied until the vehicle comes to a standstill, the engine will auto-stop automatically if the driver keeps the brake pedal depressed
.
To remind the driver that the enginehas been auto-stopped, the Start/Stopsymbol will illuminate in the instrumentpanel and remain on until the engine
restarts.
If the ECO function * is acti-
vated, the engine may auto- stop before the vehicle comesto a complete standstill.
Auto-starting the engine
The engine restarts as soon as the driver relea- ses the brake pedal.
Deactivating Start/Stop
In certain situations (e.g., driv- ing in heavy, stop-and-go traf-fic), it may be preferable todeactivate Start/Stop. This is done by pressing the button in the center console.
The indicator light in the button will go out. Start/Stop will remain deactivated until the but- ton is pressed again or until the engine isswitched off and restarted by the driver.

pressing the brake pedal, such as if:
Condition/situation
Condensation forms on the windows.
The climate system cannot keep the desired settings in the passenger compartment.
Electrical current consumption is temporarily high or the main battery's charge is below theminimum level.
The brake pedal is pumped repeatedly.
The hood has been opened A
.
The vehicle begins to move or increases speed slightly (if the engine auto-stopped before the vehicle was at a standstill (see ECO *
(p. 267))).
The driver unbuckles his/her seat belt while the gear selector is in the D or N positions.
The steering wheel is turned A
.
Condition/situation
The gear selector is moved from D to SB
, R or
" +/– ".
The driver's door is opened with the gear selector in D – an audible signal and a text
message will inform the driver that Start/Stop is active.

268 This feature is primarily intended to be used in driving situations where a decrease in speed isexpected, such as when entering a zone with alower speed limit. Eco Coast enables proactive driving with as little braking as possible.
Combinations of On and Off
Depending on the driving situation, Eco can be used in different ways to help reduce fuel con-sumption:
• With Eco activated
: this enables Eco Coast,
which allows the vehicle to roll freely for as
far as possible when the driver releases the
accelerator pedal (e.g., when approaching atraffic light or intersection).
or
• With Eco deactivated
: engine braking can
be used when the vehicle will only roll for
a short distance (in heavy traffic, etc.) or
when driving down hills .
To help keep fuel consumption as low as possi-ble, Eco Coast should not be used in traffic situa-tions where the brakes have to be used fre-quently.
Activating Eco Coast
Eco Coast is activated when the accelerator pedal is released completely if:
• Eco is activated
• The gear selector is in
D •
The vehicle's speed is between approxi-mately 40–85 mph (65–140 km/h). Alwaysobserve posted speed limits
• The gradient of a down-slope is less thanapproximately 6%
Deactivating
Eco Coast
In certain situations, it may be advisable to switch off the Eco Coast function, such as:
• When driving down steep hills, in order to uti-lize engine braking
• Prior to passing another vehicle, in order todo so as safely as possible
Deactivating Eco Coast (and reactivating enginebraking) can be done in the following ways: • Press the
ECO button on the center console
• Move the gear selector to the manual "
S+/–"
position
• Change gears using the steering wheel pad- dles
*
• Press the brake or accelerator pedal
Eco Coast limitationsThis function will not be available if:
• Cruise control is activated
• The gradient of a down-slope is more than approximately 6%
• The steering wheel paddles
* are used to
manually change gears •
The engine and/or transmission have notreached their normal operating temperature
• The gear selector is moved from
D to the
manual " S+/–" position
• The vehicle's speed is not within the40–85 mph (65–140 km/h). interval
Additional information and settings
Other ECO-related settings can be made in the vehicle's
MY CAR menu. See My Car – introduc-
tion (p. 71) for more information.

All Wheel Drive (AWD)Your Volvo can be equipped with permanent All Wheel Drive, which means that power is distrib-uted automatically between the front and rearwheels.
Under normal driving conditions, most of the engine's power is directed to the front wheels.However, if there is any tendency for the frontwheels to spin, an electronically controlled cou-pling distributes power to the wheels that havethe best traction.
NOTE
The message AWD disabled Service
required will be appear in the information
display if an electrical fault should occur in the AWD system. A warning light will also illu-minate in the instrument panel. If this occurs,have the system checked by a trained andqualified Volvo service technician.
Related information
• Transmission – general information (p. 256)
Brakes – general The brake system is a hydraulic system consist- ing of two separate brake circuits. If a problemshould occur in one of these circuits, it is stillpossible to stop the vehicle with the other brakecircuit.
If the brake pedal must be depressed farther than normal and requires greater foot pressure,the stopping distance will be longer. A warning light in the instrument panel will light up to warn the driver that a fault has occurred. If this light comes on while driving or braking, stop immediately and check the brake fluid levelin the reservoir.
NOTE
Press the brake pedal hard and maintain pressure on the pedal – do not pump thebrakes.
WARNING
If the fluid level is below the
MIN mark in the
reservoir or if a brake system message is shown in the information display: DO NOT
DRIVE . Have the vehicle towed to a trained
and qualified Volvo service technician and have the brake system inspected.

Brake lights The brake lights come on automatically when the brakes are applied.
Adaptive brake lights
The adaptive brake lights activate in the event of sudden braking or if the ABS system is activated.This function causes an additional taillight oneach side of the vehicle to illuminate to help alertvehicles traveling behind. The adaptive brake lights activate if:• The ABS system activates for more than approximately a half second
• In the event of sudden braking while thevehicle is moving at speeds above approxi-mately 6 mph (10 km/h).
When the vehicle has come to a stop, the brakelights and additional taillights remain on for aslong as the brake pedal is depressed or untilbraking force on the vehicle is reduced.

Emergency Brake Assistance (EBA)
EBA is designed to provide full brake effect immediately in the event of sudden, hard brak-ing.
Emergency Brake AssistanceThe EBA system is activated by the speed with which the brake pedal is depressed. When the EBA system is activated, the brake pedal will go down and pressure in the brake sys-tem immediately increases to the maximum level.Maintain full pressure on the brake pedal in orderto utilize the system completely. EBA is automati-cally deactivated when the brake pedal isreleased.
NOTE
• When the EBA system is activated, the brake pedal will go down and pressure inthe brake system immediately increasesto the maximum level. You must maintainfull pressure on the brake pedal in orderto utilize the system completely. Therewill be no braking effect if the pedal isreleased. EBA is automatically deacti-vated when the brake pedal is released.
• When the vehicle has been parked forsome time, the brake pedal may sinkmore than usual when the engine isstarted. This is normal and the pedal willreturn to its usual position when it isreleased.
