possible collision and help the driver act in timeto prevent it. If the driver does not react to thewarning and the risk of collision is determined tobe imminent, City Safety can automatically applythe brakes.
Lane assistance (LKA) is another example of afunction that can help prevent accidents by help-ing the driver - on expressways and similar largerroads - to reduce the risk of the car accidentallyleaving its own lane.
The function Steering aid during increasedcollision risk can help the driver reduce the riskof the car leaving its lane unintentionally and/orcolliding with another vehicle or obstacle byactively steering the car back into its lane and/orswerving.
Protection
To help protect the driver and passengers, thevehicle is equipped with seat belt tensioners thatpull the seat belts taut in collisions and other crit-ical situations. The vehicle also has airbags, inflat-able curtains and the Whiplash ProtectionSystem (WHIPS), which helps prevent whiplashinjuries.

Seat belt tensioners
The vehicle is equipped with standard and elec-tric seat belt tensioners that can help tension theseat belt in a critical situation or collision.
Standard seat belt tensioners
All seat belts are equipped with a standard seatbelt tensioner.
In a collision of sufficiently violent force, the seatbelt tensioners will tension the seat belts in orderto more effectively restrain the occupants.
Electric seat belt tensioners
The driver's and front passenger's seat belts areequipped with electric seat belt tensioners.
The seat belt tensioners interact and can be acti-vated in conjunction with the City Safety andRear Collision Warning driver support systems. Incritical situations, such as if the vehicle brakessuddenly, begins to skid or runs off the road (e.gif the vehicle rolls into a ditch, lifts off the groundor hits an obstacle in the road), or if there is a riskof collision, the seat belts can be pulled taut bythe seat belt tensioner's electric motor.
The electric seat belt tensioner helps to positionthe occupant more effectively in the seat, whichreduces the risk of the occupant striking the inte-rior of the passenger compartment and improvesthe effect of other safety systems such as theairbags.
When a critical situation has passed, the seat beltand the electric seat belt tensioner are resetautomatically. However, they can also be resetmanually.
WARNING
Never attempt to alter or repair the seat belton your own. Volvo recommends contactingan authorized Volvo workshop.
If the seat belt has been exposed to extremeforces, e.g. in conjunction with a collision, theentire seat belt must be replaced. Even if theseat belt appears undamaged, some of itsprotective properties may have been lost. Alsoreplace the seat belt if it is worn or damaged.The new seat belt must be type approved andintended for the same seating position as thereplaced seat belt.

DISPLAYS AND VOICE CONTROL
* Option/accessory.80
Instrument panel
The instrument panel displays information rela-ted to the vehicle and driving.
The instrument panel contains gauges, indicatorsand monitoring and warning symbols. What isshown in the instrument panel varies dependingon the equipment, settings and functions cur-rently active.
The instrument panel is activated as soon as adoor is opened, i.e. in ignition mode 0. The panelwill power down after a short period of time if it isnot used. To reactivate it, do one of the following:
Depress the brake pedal.
Activate ignition mode I.
Open one of the doors.
WARNING
If the instrument panel turns off, does notactivate when the ignition is switched on, orpart/all of the panel cannot be read, do notdrive the vehicle. Consult a workshop immedi-ately. Volvo recommends an authorized Volvoworkshop.
WARNING
If the instrument panel is not functioningproperly, information about brakes, airbags orother safety-related systems may not be dis-played. The driver will then not be able tocheck the status of the vehicle systems orreceive relevant warnings and information.

For example:
The vehicle has been started, but is stationary and nopower is being requested.
The electric motor cannot supply the requested powerand the internal combustion engine will start.
The vehicle is generating current to recharge the battery,e.g. during light braking or engine braking on a down-slope.

Hybrid gauge
The hybrid battery gauge shows how much cur-rent is left in the hybrid battery.
The current in the hybrid battery is used to powerthe electric motor, but can also be used to heator cool the vehicle. The trip computer calculatesan approximate driving distance with the remain-ing current in the hybrid battery.

B
Auto-brake on
This symbol illuminates when thefunction is activated and the brakesor parking brakes are being used.The brakes hold the vehicle at astandstill after it has stopped.
Symbol Meaning
Tire pressure system
This symbol illuminates to indicatelow tire pressure. If there is a faultin the tire pressure system, thesymbol will first flash for approxi-mately 1 minute and then glowsteadily. This may occur if the sys-tem cannot detect or alert thedriver of low tire pressure asintended.
Emission control system
If this symbol illuminates after star-ting the engine, it could indicate afault in the vehicle's emission con-trol system. Have the vehiclechecked by a workshop. Volvo rec-ommends contacting an authorizedVolvo workshop.
Left/right turn signals
These symbols flash when the turnsignals are used.
Symbol Meaning

Emergency brake lights
The emergency brake lights are activated towarn following vehicles of hard braking.
This function causes an additional taillight oneach side of the vehicle to illuminate.
The emergency brake lights are activated in theevent of hard braking or if the ABS system isactivated and the vehicle is traveling at a highspeed.
After the driver decelerates to a low speed andthen releases the brake, the brake lights resumetheir normal brightness.

DRIVER SUPPORT
* Option/accessory.270
Driver support systems
The vehicle is equipped with a number of driversupport systems that can provide the driver withactive or passive assistance in various situations.
The systems can, for example, help the driver:
maintain a set speed
maintain a set time interval to the vehicleahead
help prevent a collision by warning the driverand applying the brakes
park the vehicle.
Some of the systems are standard and others areoptions. This also varies from market to market.

Speed-dependent steering wheelresistance
Speed-dependent power steering increases thesteering wheel resistance in pace with the vehi-cle's speed to give the driver an enhanced feel-ing of control and stability.
Steering may feel stiffer on highways. Whenparking and at low speeds, it will be easier tomove the steering wheel.
NOTE
In some situations, the power steering maybecome too hot and require temporary cool-ing – during such time the power steering willwork at reduced output and the steeringwheel may feel more difficult to move.
In parallel with the temporarily reduced steer-ing assistance, the driver display shows amessage as well as a STEERING WHEELsymbol.
WARNING
While the power steering is working atreduced power, the driver support functionsand systems with steering assistance are notavailable.
In such a situation, the driver display showsthe Power steering failure message, com-bined with a STEERING WHEEL symbol.

Electronic Stability Control
The Electronic Stability Control (ESC1) functionhelps the driver avoid skidding and improves thevehicle's directional stability.
This symbol will be displayed inthe instrument panel when theESC system is intervening.
When the ESC has intervenedto apply the brakes, a pulsingsound may be heard and thevehicle may accelerate more slowly than expec-ted when the accelerator pedal is depressed.
The ESC system consists of the following sub-functions:
Stability control2
Spin control and active yaw control
Engine drag control
WARNING
The Electronic Stability Control systemESC is supplementary driver supportintended to facilitate driving and make itsafer – it cannot handle all situations inall traffic, weather and road conditions.
ESC is not a substitute for the driver'sattention and judgment. The driver isalways responsible for ensuring the vehi-cle is driven in a safe manner, at theappropriate speed, with an appropriatedistance to other vehicles, and in accord-ance with current traffic rules and regula-tions.
Stability control 2
This function helps control the driving and brak-ing force of each individual wheel in an attemptto stabilize the vehicle.
Spin control and active yaw control
This function is active at low speeds and brakesthe wheels that are spinning to transfer additionalpower from wheels that are not spinning.
This function also helps prevent the wheels fromspinning while the vehicle is accelerating.
1Electronic Stability Control2Also called traction control.
