Collision warning* – Pedestrian detection
The system cannot identify all pedestrians
The Pedestrian and Cyclist Detection with Full Auto Brake system can only identify anddetect a pedestrian who is standing upright.This person can be standing still, walking orrunning. 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's

entire body and the person must be at least 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
• Pedestrian and Cyclist Detection with Full Auto Brake is designed to be asupplementary driving aid. It is not,however, intended to replace the driv-er'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.

Collision warning* – limitations
Strong sunlight, reflections, extreme light contrasts, the use of sunglasses, or if thedriver is not looking straight ahead may makethe visual warning signal in the windshield dif-ficult to see. For this reason, always activatethe audible warning signal. Slippery driving conditions increase braking distance, which can reduce the system'scapacity to avoid a collision. In these condi-tions, the ABS and stability systems providethe best possible braking effect while helpingto maintain stability.
NOTE
The visual warning signal may be tempo- rarily disengaged in the event of high pas-senger compartment temperature due tostrong sunlight, etc. If this occurs, theaudible warning signal will be used, even ifit has been deactivated in the menu sys-tem.

The camera’s limitations
The camera has the same limitations as the human eye. The camera is used by Pedestrian and Cyclist Detection with Full Auto Brake Collision warn-ing – introduction (p. 175), Active High Beams(Active high beams (AHB)* (p. 77)), Road SignInformation (Road Sign Information (RSI)* –introduction (p. 145)) and Driver Alert System(Driver Alert System (p. 188)) with LaneDeparture Warning or Lane Keeping Aid.
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 type of limi- tations as the human eye, i.e., it can-not see as well in heavy snowfall orrain, thick fog or in heavy blowing dustor snow. In such conditions, systemsdepending on the camera may experi-ence greatly reduced functionality ormay be temporarily deactivated.
• 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 pedestrian,a cyclist or another vehicle.

Lane Departure Warning (LDW) – introduction
The LDW function is designed to help reduce the risk of accidents in situations where thevehicle unintentionally leaves its lane andthere is a risk of driving off the road or into theopposite lane.
Lane Departure Warning (LDW)
The illustration is genericLDW uses the camera located at the center, upper edge of the windshield to monitor theroad's/lane’s side marker lines. If the vehiclecrosses a side marker line or the road’s cen-ter dividing line, the driver will be alerted byan audible signal.
WARNING
This feature is only intended to assist the driver and does not function in all driving,weather, traffic or road conditions. As the driver, you have full responsibility for operating the vehicle in a safe manner.

Audible signalThe Park Assist system uses an intermittent tone that pulses faster as you come close toan object, and becomes constant when youare within approximately 1 ft (30 cm) of anobject in front of or behind the vehicle. Ifthere are objects within this distance bothbehind and in front of the vehicle, the tonealternates between front and rear speakers.
NOTE
The level of the audible signal can be low- ered/raised with the infotainment volumecontrol. The level can also be set in the MYCAR menu system. See My Car – introduc-tion (p. 66) for a description of the menusystem.
If the volume of another source from the audio system is high, this will be automati-cally lowered.
Rear park assistThe distance monitored behind the vehicle is approximately 5 ft (1.5 m). The audible signalcomes from the rear speakers. The system must be deactivated when towing a trailer, carrying bicycles in a rear-mountedcarrier, etc, which could trigger the rear parkassist system's sensors.
NOTE
•Rear park assist is deactivated auto- matically when towing a trailer if Volvogenuine trailer wiring is used. If a non-Volvo trailer hitch is being used, it maybe necessary to switch off the systemmanually, see Park assist – operation(p. 200).
• The system will not detect highobjects, such as a loading dock, etc.
• Objects such as chains, thin shinypoles or low objects may temporarilynot be detected by the system. Thismay result in the pulsing tone unex-pectedly stopping instead of changingto a constant tone as the vehicleapproaches the object. In such cases,use caution when backing up or stopthe vehicle to help avoid damage.
Front park assistThe distance monitored in front of the vehicle is approximately 2.5 ft (0.8 m). The audiblesignal comes from the audio system's frontspeakers. It may not be possible to combine auxiliary headlights and front park assist since theselights could trigger the system's sensors.
NOTE
Front park assist is deactivated when the parking brake is applied and or when thegear selector is in the
P position.

Rear Park Assist Camera (PAC) – function
FunctionThe driver sees what is behind the vehicle and if a person or animal should suddenlyappear from the side. The camera has built-in electronics that help reduce the “fish-eye” effect so that the imageshown on the screen is as natural as possi-ble. This may cause some objects on thescreen to “lean,” which is normal.
Ambient lighting conditionsThe camera automatically monitors the ambi- ent lighting conditions behind the vehicle andconstantly adjusts sensitivity to light. Thismay cause the brightness and quality of theimage on the screen to vary slightly. Sensitiv-ity to light is increased in dark conditions or inbad weather, which may affect image quality. If the image on the screen seems too dark, brightness can be increased with the thumbwheel on the lighting panel.
NOTE
In order to function properly, the camera lens should always be kept clean. This isparticularly important in bad weather.Keep the lens free of dirt, ice or snow.
