Automatic Speed Limiter limitations
Automatic Speed Limiter (ASL) utilizes the
speed limit information provided by the RSI18
function, not from the speed limit signs that thevehicle passes.
If RSI18 is unable to interpret and provide ASLwith speed information, ASL will go into standbymode and switch over to SL. The driver will thenhave to actively brake to bring the vehicle downto the appropriate speed.
ASL will be reactivated when RSI18 is once againable to interpret and provide speed information toASL.

Using engine braking instead of
applying the brakes
Cruise Control regulates speed by lightly applyingthe brakes. On downgrades, it can sometimes bedesirable to roll a bit faster and let speed bereduced instead by engine braking alone. Thedriver can temporarily disengage the Cruise Con-trol braking function.
To disengage CC:
–Press the accelerator pedal about halfwaydown and then release it.
> Cruise Control will automatically disen-gage the automatic brake function andspeed will only be reduced using theengine braking function.
How drive mode affects cruise control
The way the cruise control maintains the vehicle'sspeed can vary depending on the selected drive
mode22.
Cruise Control Eco Cruise with ECO drive
mode
In the ECO drive mode, cruise control's accelera-tion and deceleration will be smoother than inother drive modes to help provide optimal fuelefficiency and reduced environmental impact.Because of this, the vehicle's actual speed maybe slightly above or below the set speed.
Cruise Control Dynamic Cruise
With the Dynamic drive mode, cruise control'sacceleration and deceleration will be faster andmore immediate than in other drive modes.

Temporarily increasing speed using the accelera-tor pedal, e.g. when passing another vehicle, willnot affect the setting. The vehicle will return tothe set speed when the accelerator pedal isreleased.
Automatic standby mode
Cruise Control will be temporarily deactivated andput in standby mode if:
the wheels lose traction
the engine speed (rpm) is too low/high
the temperature in the brake systembecomes too high
the vehicle's speed goes below 30 km/h(20 mph).
The driver must then control the vehicle's speed.

Distance Alert*26
The Distance Alert27 function can help the driverbecome aware if the time interval to the vehiclein front is too short.
However, the vehicle must be equipped with ahead-up display in order to display the DistanceAlert, which will then be indicated by a symbolon the windshield as long as the time interval tothe vehicle ahead is shorter than the set timeinterval.
Distance Alert is active at speeds above 30 km/h(20 mph) and only reacts for vehicles ahead mov-ing in the same direction as your vehicle. No dis-tance information is provided for oncoming, slow-moving or stationary vehicles.
NOTE
Distance Alert is only available in vehiclesthat can display information on the wind-shield with a head-up display.
Distance Alert is deactivated while Adap-tive Cruise Control or Pilot Assist isactive.

Distance Alert functionality may be reduced incertain situations.
WARNING
The radar sensor has a limited field ofvision. In some situations, it may detect avehicle later than expected or not detectother vehicles at all.
The radar sensor cannot cover all drivingsituations and traffic, weather and roadconditions.
The driver is responsible for maintaining asafe distance and speed and must inter-vene if the various driver support systemsdo not maintain a suitable speed or suita-ble distance to the vehicle ahead.
Maintenance of radar sensor componentsmay only be performed by a trained andqualified Volvo technician.
Strong sunlight, reflections from the roadsurface, strong lighting contrasts or usingsunglasses may make the warning light inthe windshield difficult to see. Poorweather or winding roads can affect theradar sensor's capacity to detect vehiclesahead.
A vehicle's size (e.g., a motorcycle) canalso affect the radar sensor's capacity todetect another vehicle. This may result inthe warning light illuminating at a shorter

High speeds may also result in the warn-ing light illuminating at a shorter distancethan the one that has been set due tolimitations in the radar sensor's range.
NOTE
The function uses the vehicle's radar unit,which has some general limitations – see thesection "Radar unit limitations".

Adaptive Cruise Control*
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC33) helps thedriver maintain a constant speed with a set timeinterval to the vehicle ahead.
Adaptive Cruise Control helps provide a morerelaxed driving experience on long trips on high-ways or long, straight roads with even trafficflows.
The camera/radar sensor measures the distance to thevehicle ahead34.
The driver sets a speed and a time interval to thevehicle ahead. If the camera/radar sensor detectsa slower-moving vehicle ahead, your vehicle'sspeed will be automatically adapted according tothe set time interval to that vehicle. When there
are no longer slower-moving vehicles ahead, thevehicle will return to the set speed.
WARNING
The Adaptive Cruise Control function issupplementary driver support intended tofacilitate driving and help make it safer –it cannot handle all situations in all traffic,weather and road conditions.
The driver is advised to read all sectionsin the Owner's Manual about this functionto learn of its limitations, which the drivermust be aware of before using the func-tion (see the link list at the end of thisarticle).
Adaptive Cruise Control is not a substi-tute for the driver's attention and judg-ment. The driver is always responsible forensuring the vehicle is driven in a safemanner, at the appropriate speed, with anappropriate distance to other vehicles,and in accordance with current trafficrules and regulations.
NOTE
Depending on market, this function may beeither Standard or Optional.
