NOTE
ACC can keep the vehicle stationary for no more than 5 minutes – after that time theparking brake is applied and Adaptive CruiseControl is deactivated. The parking brake must be released before Adaptive Cruise Control can be reactivated.
Deactivation of the Auto-hold brake function
In certain situations, Auto-hold will be deactivated when the vehicle is at a standstill and AdaptiveCruise Control will go into standby mode. Thismeans that the brakes will be released and thevehicle could begin to roll. The driver mustactively apply the brakes to keep the vehicle sta-tionary. This can occur if:
• the driver depresses the brake pedal
• the parking brake is applied
• the gear selector is moved to the
P
, N
or R
positions
• the driver puts Adaptive Cruise Control in standby mode.
Auto Activate Parking BrakeIn certain situations, the parking brake will beapplied to keep the vehicle at a standstill. This occurs if Adaptive Cruise Control is keepingthe vehicle stationary using the brakes and:
• the driver opens the door or unbuckleshis/her seat belt
• ACC has kept the vehicle at a standstill formore than approx. 5 minutes
• the brakes overheat
• the driver switches off the engine manually.

ited functionality in certain situations.
Steep roads and/or heavy loadsAdaptive Cruise Control is primarily intended to be driven on flat roads. The function may not beable to maintain the correct time interval to thevehicle ahead when driving down steep hills. Thedriver should be extra attentive and prepared toapply the brakes.
• Do not use Adaptive Cruise Control if thevehicle is carrying a heavy load or towing atrailer.
Other limitations
•
The Off Road drive mode cannot be
selected if Adaptive Cruise Control is acti- vated.
NOTE
The function uses the vehicle's camera unit, which has some general limitations – see thesection "Camera unit limitations".
NOTE
The function uses the vehicle's radar unit, which has some general limitations – see thesection "Radar unit limitations".

A WHITE symbol: The function is active. GRAY symbol: Standby mode
Switching from ACC to CCTo do so: 1. Press the
button on the steering wheel
keypad to put Adaptive Cruise Control in standby mode. 2.
Tap the
Cruise Control button in the center
display's Function view. The button's indica- tor will change from GRAY to GREEN.
> The symbol in the instrument panel will
change from
ACC to CC, indicating that Adaptive Cruise Con- trol is off and Cruise Control is in standbymode.
3. Pressing the
button on the steering
wheel keypad.
> Cruise Control will start and the vehicle's current speed will be set.
WARNING
Switching from ACC to CC means that the vehicle:
• will no longer maintain a preset time interval to the vehicle ahead.
• will only follow the stored speed and thedriver must therefore apply the brakeswhen necessary.
If CC is active when the engine is turned off, ACC
will be automatically activated the next time theengine is started.

Automatic standby mode
Pilot Assist is dependent on other systems, such as Electronic Stability Control (ESC62
). If any of
these other systems stops working, Pilot Assist will automatically switch off.
WARNING
With automatic standby mode, the driver is warned by an acoustic signal and a messageon the instrument panel. • The driver must then regulate vehicle speed, apply the brakes if necessary, andmaintain a safe distance to other vehicles.
Adaptive Cruise Control may go into standbymode if, e.g.: • the driver opens the door.
• the brake temperature is high.
• the driver's hands are not on the steering wheel.
• the parking brake is applied.
• the engine speed (rpm) is too low/high.
• the driver unbuckles the seat belt.
• one or more of the wheels lose traction.
• the camera/radar sensor is covered by snowor heavy rain (the camera lens/radar wavesare blocked) •
your vehicle's speed goes below 5 km/h(3 mph) and Pilot Assist cannot determine ifthe vehicle ahead is stationary or if it isanother object, e.g. a speed bump.
• your vehicle's speed goes under 5 km/h(3 mph) and the vehicle ahead turns so thatPilot Assist no longer has a vehicle to follow.Reactivating Pilot Assist from standby
mode
Note: This illustration is general and details may vary depending on model.
To reactivate Pilot Assist:
–Press the button on the steering wheel
(1).
> Speed will be set to the most recently stored speed.
WARNING
A noticeable increase in speed may follow when the speed is resumed with the
steering wheel button.

Pilot Assist limitations
Pilot Assist functionality may be reduced in cer- tain situations.
Pilot Assist is a driver support function designed to simplify driving and assist the driver in manysituations. However, the driver is always responsi-ble for maintaining a suitable distance to vehiclesor objects around it and ensuring that the vehicleis correctly positioned in the traffic lane.
WARNING
In some situations, Pilot Assist may have trou- ble helping the driver properly or may bedeactivated automatically – we advise againstusing Pilot Assist in such cases. Examples ofsuch situations include:
• the lane markings are worn, missing or cross each other.
• lane division is unclear, for example, whenthe lanes divide or merge or at exits orwhen there are multiple sets of markings.
• edges or other lines than lane markingsare present on or near the road, e.g.curbs, joints or repairs to the road sur-face, edges of barriers, roadside edges orstrong shadows.
• the lane is narrow or winding.
• the lane contains ridges or holes.
• weather conditions are poor, e.g. rain,snow or fog or slush or reduced visibilitywith poor light conditions, backlighting,wet road surface, etc.
The driver should also note that Pilot Assist has the following limitations: • High curbs, roadside barriers, temporary obstacles (traffic cones, safety barriers,etc.) are not detected. Alternatively, theymay be detected incorrectly as lane mark-ings, with a subsequent risk of contactbetween the vehicle and such obstacles.

High temperaturesIf the temperature in the passenger compartment is very high, the camera/radar sensor will switchoff temporarily for approx. 15 minutes after theengine is started to protect its electronic compo-nents. When the temperature has cooled suffi-ciently, the camera/radar sensor will automati-cally restart.Damaged windshield
CAUTION
If there are cracks, scratches or stone chips on the windshield in front of any of the cam-era and radar unit "windows" and this coversan area of about 0.5 × 3.0 mm(0.02 × 0.12 in.) or more, contact a workshopto have the windshield replaced – an author-ized Volvo workshop is recommended. Failure to take action could result in reduced performance for the driver support systemsthat use the camera and radar unit. It could cause functions to be reduced, deac- tivated completely or produce an incorrectfunction response. To avoid the risk of loss of function, malfunc- tion or reduced function of the driver supportsystems that use the radar unit, the followingalso apply:
• Volvo advises
against repairing cracks,
scratches or stone chips in the area infront of the camera and radar unit – theentire windshield should instead bereplaced.
• Before replacing the windshield, contactan authorized Volvo workshop to verifythat the right windshield has beenordered and installed.
• The same type of windshield wipers or wipers approved by Volvo should be usedfor replacement.
CAUTION
If the windshield is replaced, the camera and radar unit must be recalibrated by a workshopto help ensure proper functioning of all of thevehicle's camera and radar-based systems –an authorized Volvo workshop is recom-mended.

The area of the windshield in front of the camera/radar sensor is dirty or covered by ice or snow. Clean the windshield in front of the camera/radar sensor and remove dirt, ice andsnow.
Thick fog, heavy rain or snow is blocking the radar signals or thecamera's range of visibility. No action. Heavy precipitation may sometimes prevent the camera/radar sensor fromfunctioning.
Water or snow is spraying/swirling up and blocking the radar signalsor the camera's range of visibility. No action. Very wet or snow-covered roads may sometimes prevent the camera/radar sensor from functioning.
There is dirt between the inside of the windshield and the camera/radar sensor. Consult a workshop to have the area of the windshield on the inside of the camera'scasing cleaned. An authorized Volvo workshop is recommended.
Bright sunlight No action. The camera/radar sensor will reset automatically when lighting conditionsimprove.
NOTE
Keep the windshield in front of the camera and radar unit clean.

3 - Auto-brake
The automatic braking function is activated at the last moment. If the driver has not taken evasive action by this stage and a collision is imminent, the automaticbraking function will be triggered. This occurswhether or not the driver is pressing the brakepedal. Full braking force will be applied to reducethe speed at impact or reduced braking effect willbe applied if this is sufficient to avoid the colli-sion. The seat belt tensioners may be activated along with the automatic braking function. See "Seatbelt tensioners" for more information. In certain situations, auto-braking may begin with a limited braking force before applying full brak- ing force. If City Safety has prevented a collision, the vehi- cle will be kept at a standstill until the drivertakes action. If the vehicle has slowed to avoidcolliding with a slower-moving vehicle ahead, yourspeed will be reduced to that vehicle's speed. Auto-braking can always be cancelled if the driver presses hard on the accelerator pedal.
NOTE
When City Safety activates the brakes, the brake lights come on.
When City Safety applies the brakes, a text mes- sage will appear in the instrument panel to notifythe driver that the function is/was activated.
WARNING
City Safety may not be used to change how the driver operates the vehicle. The drivermust not only rely on City Safety to brake thevehicle.

Setting a warning distance for CitySafety
City Safety is always active, but the function's warning distance can be adjusted.
NOTE
The City Safety function cannot be deacti- vated. It is activated automatically each timethe engine/electric motor is started.
The alert distance determines the sensitivity of the system and regulates the distance at whichthe light, sound and brake pulsations will be acti-vated. To select warning distance:
1. Select
SettingsMy CarIntelliSafe in
the center display's Top view.
2. Under
City Safety Warning, tap Late,Normal or Early to set the desired warning
distance.
If the driver feels that the
Early setting is giving
too many warnings or finds them irritating, the
Normal or Late warning distance settings can
be selected instead. If the driver feels that the warnings are too fre- quent and distracting, the warning distance canbe reduced. This will reduce the total number ofwarnings, but it will also result in City Safety pro-viding warnings at a later stage.

Rear Collision Warning
The Rear Collision Warning (RCW) function can help the driver avoid rear-end collisions fromvehicles approaching from behind.
RCW is automatically activated each time the engine is started. RCW can warn the driver of a potential collision with vehicles approaching from behind by rapidlyflashing the turn signals. If, at a speed below 30 km/h (20 mph), the RCW function detects that the car is in danger of beinghit from behind, the seatbelt tensioners may ten-sion the front seatbelts and activate the WhiplashProtection System safety system. Immediately before a collision from behind, RCW may also activate the foot brake in order toreduce the forward acceleration of the car duringthe collision. However, the brakes will only beapplied if your vehicle is stationary. The brakeswill be immediately released if the acceleratorpedal is depressed.

• Rear Collision Warning limitations (p. 336)
• Whiplash Protection System (p. 46)
Rear Collision Warning limitations
In some situations, it may be difficult for RCW to warn the driver of a collision risk.
This may be the case if:
• the vehicle approaching from the rear is detected at a late stage
• the vehicle approaching from the rearchanges lanes at a late stage
• the vehicle approaching from the rear is mov-ing at a speed above 80 km/h (50 mph)
• a trailer, bicycle holder or similar is con-nected to the vehicle's electrical system - theRCW function will then be automaticallydeactivated.
NOTE
In certain markets RCW does
not warn with
the direction indicators due to local traffic regulations – in such cases, that part of thefunction is deactivated.
NOTE
The warning with direction indicators for Rear Collision Warning is deactivated if the colli-sion warning distance in the City Safety func- tion is set to the lowest level "
Late".
The seat belt tensioning and braking func- tions remain active.

Cross Traffic Alert limitations
CTA 87
functionality may be reduced in certain
situations.
CTA does not function optimally in all situations and has certain limitations. The CTA sensors, forexample, cannot "see" through other parkedvehicles or objects blocking the vehicle. Below are a few examples of situations in which CTA's field of vision may be initially limited andapproaching vehicles may therefore not bedetected until they are very close to your vehicle:
The vehicle is parked very far into a parking space.
In a diagonal parking space, CTA may be completely "blind" on one side of your vehicle.
CTA's blind zone.
CTA's field of vision.
However, as you back your vehicle slowly out of a parking space, CTA's field of vision changes inrelation to the obstructing vehicle/object and itsblind zone is reduced.
