Front park assist
G021424
The 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
Function
The driver sees what is behind the vehicle and if a person or animal should suddenlyappear from the side. PAC is mounted on the rear of the trunk lid, near the opening handle. 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.

Rear Park Assist Camera (PAC) – limitations
LimitationsEven if a fairly small section of the screen image appears to be obstructed, this maymean that a relatively large area behind thevehicle is hidden and objects there may notbe detected until they are very near the vehi-cle.
NOTE
Bicycle carriers or other accessories mounted on the trunk may obstruct thecamera's field of view.
Keep in mind
• Keep the camera's lens free of dirt, ice and snow. Remove ice and snow care-fully to avoid scratching the lens.
• Clean the lens regularly with warm waterand a suitable car washing detergent.

BLIS* – introduction
The Blind Spot Information System (BLIS) is an information system that indicates the pres-ence of another vehicle moving in the samedirection as your vehicle in the side-view mir-ror's "blind area."
G021426
BLIS camera
Indicator light
BLIS symbol
CAUTION
The BLIS system should only be repaired by a trained and qualified Volvo servicetechnician.
WARNING
• BLIS is an information system, NOT a warning or safety system.
• BLIS does not eliminate the need foryou to visually confirm the conditionsaround you, and the need for you toturn your head and shoulders to makesure that you can safely change lanes.
• As the driver, you have full responsibil-ity for changing lanes in a safe man-ner.
The system is based on digital camera tech- nology. The cameras are located beneath theside-view mirrors. When one (or both) of the cameras have detected a vehicle in the blind area (up toapproximately 10 ft. (3 meters) from the sideof your vehicle, and up to approximately 31 ft.(9.5 meters) behind the side-view mirror), seethe illustration, the indicator light in the doorpanel illuminates. The light will glow continu-ously to alert the driver of the vehicle in theblind area.
NOTE
The door panel indicator light illuminates on the side of the vehicle where the sys-tem has detected another vehicle. If yourvehicle is passed on both sides at thesame time, both lights will illuminate.

228* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
BLIS has an integrated function that alerts the driver if a fault should occur with the system.For example, if one or both of the system'scameras are obscured, a message (see thetable inBLIS* – messages (p. 230)) willappear in the information display in the instru-ment panel. If this occurs, clean the cameralenses. If necessary, the system can be tem-porarily switched off (for instructions, seeBLIS* – messages (p. 230)).
Areas monitored by BLIS Distance A = approx. 31 ft. (9.5 meters), Distance B = approx. 10 ft.(3 meters)

BLIS* – function
When does BLIS functionThe system functions when your vehicle is moving at speeds above 6 mph (10 km/h).
When you pass another vehicle:The system reacts when you pass another vehicle at a speed of up to 6 mph (10 km/h)faster than that vehicle.
When you are passed by another
vehicle:
The system reacts if your vehicle is passed by another vehicle at a speed of up to 43 mph(70 km/h) faster than your vehicle.
WARNING
• BLIS does not function in sharp curves.
• BLIS does not function when yourvehicle is backing up.
• If you are towing a wide trailer, thismay prevent the BLIS cameras fromdetecting other vehicles in adjacentlanes.
How BLIS functions in daylight and darkness
DaylightBLIS reacts to the
shape of surrounding vehi-
cles. The system is designed to help detect motor vehicles such as cars, trucks, buses, motorcycles, etc.
DarknessBLIS reacts to the
headlights of surrounding
vehicles. In order to be detected by BLIS, a vehicle in the blind area must have its head-lights on. This means, for example, that thesystem will not detect a trailer without head-lights that is being towed behind a car ortruck.
WARNING
• BLIS does not react to cyclists or mopeds.
• BLIS does not react to vehicles thatare standing still.
• The BLIS cameras have the same limi-tation as the human eye. In otherwords, their "vision is impaired" byadverse weather conditions such asheavy snowfall, intense light directlyinto the camera, dense fog, etc.

BLIS* – limitations
In certain situations, the BLIS indicator light(s) may illuminate even when there are no othervehicles in the area monitored by the system.
NOTE
If the BLIS indicator lights illuminate occa- sionally even when there are no other vehi-cles in the blind area, this does not indi-cate a fault in the system. In the event of a fault,
Blind spot syst.
Service required will be displayed.
The following are several examples of situa- tions in which the BLIS indicator light(s) mayilluminate even when there are no other vehi-cles in the area monitored by the system.

WARNING
•Always remove the remote key from the ignition slot when leaving the vehi-cle and ensure that the ignition inmode
0 (see Ignition modes (p. 73) for
information about the ignition modes).
• On vehicles with the optional keylessdrive, never remove the remote keyfrom the vehicle while it is being drivenor towed.
• Always place the gear selector in Parkand apply the parking brake beforeleaving the vehicle. Never leave thevehicle unattended with the enginerunning.
• Always open garage doors fully beforestarting the engine inside a garage toensure adequate ventilation. Theexhaust gases contain carbon monox-ide, which is invisible and odorless butvery poisonous.
NOTE
•
After a cold start, idle speed may be noticeably higher than normal for ashort period. This is done to help bringcomponents in the emission controlsystem to their normal operating tem-perature as quickly as possible, whichenables them to control emissions andhelp reduce the vehicle's impact on the environment 3
.
CAUTION
• When starting in cold weather, the automatic transmission may shift up atslightly higher engine speeds than nor-mal until the automatic transmissionfluid reaches normal operating tem-perature.
• 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 acceler-ate until after you feel the transmissionengage. Accelerating immediately afterselecting a gear will cause harshengagement and premature transmis-sion wear.
• Selecting
P or N when idling at a
standstill for prolonged periods of timewill help prevent overheating of theautomatic transmission fluid.

Geartronic: steering wheel paddles*In addition to the manual gearshift function using the gear selector, this option makes itpossible to manually shift gears from thesteering wheel.
Steering-wheel mounted gear shift paddles
" – ": Shift down to a lower gear.
"+ ": Shift up to a higher gear.
In order to shift gears with the paddles, they have to first be activated. The gear selector
can be in either the D or S position. Activating the paddles:
• Pull either paddle toward the steering wheel and release it; the
D in the instru-
ment panel will change to the number ofthe gear currently being used.
Shifting gears: •
Pull the paddle toward the steering wheeland release it.
Deactivating the paddles: • Hold the "
+" paddle for approximately
3 seconds.
NOTE
If the gear selector was in D when paddle
shifting was activated ( D changed to the
number of the gear being used), the trans- mission will automatically revert to D after
approximately 5 seconds if the paddlesare not used to shift gears. This will not occur:
• during active driving (e.g., on a wind- ing road, while accelerating, etc)
• if the gear selector was in
S when the
paddles were activated
If the transmission reverts to D, the pad-
dles will have to be reactivated (pull either paddle toward the steering wheel andrelease it) before they can be used to shiftgears again. The paddles can also be manually deacti- vated by pulling both paddles toward thesteering wheel and holding them until thegear number shown in the instrumentpanel changes to D.
Geartronic: Sport mode (S) 7This transmission mode provides sportier shifting characteristics and enables a moreactive driving style by making it possible todrive at higher rpm in each gear before shift-ing up. The engine also responds faster whenthe accelerator pedal is pressed. To access Sport mode from Drive (
D), move
the gear selector to the left. The transmission will not switch to manual shifting mode untilthe gear selector is moved forward or rear-ward toward + or –. Sport mode can be selected any time.
NOTE
• On vehicles equipped with Sport mode, the transmission symbol in themain instrument panel will changefrom
D to S when the gear selector is
moved to the manual shifting mode. Ifthe gear selector is moved toward "+"or "-", the number of the gear currentlybeing used will be displayed, see Infor-mation displays – introduction (p. 62).
• Please be aware that using Sportmode may result in a slight decrease infuel economy. Driving in
D can help
improve fuel economy.
