City Safety™
04
168* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
General
City Safety™ is a function for helping the driver
to avoid a collision when driving in queues,
amongst other things, when changes in the
traffic ahead, combined with a lapse in atten-
tion, could lead to an incident.
The function is active at speeds
under50 km/h and it helps the driver by auto-
matically braking the car in the event of immi-
nent risk of collision with vehicles in front,
should the driver not react in time by braking
and/or steering away.
City Safety™ is activated in situations where
the driver should have started braking earlier,
which is why it cannot help the driver in every
situation.
City Safety™ is designed to be activated as
late as possible in order to avoid unnecessary
intervention.
City Safety™ must not be used as an excuse
for the driver to change his/her driving style. If
the driver solely relies on City Safety™ to do
the braking, there will be a collision sooner or
later.
The driver or passengers normally only notice
City Safety™ if a situation arises where the car
is extremely close to being in a collision.If the car is also equipped with a Collision
Warning function with Auto Brake*, these two
systems complement each other. For more
information on Collision Warning function with
Auto Brake, see page 173.
IMPORTANT
Maintenance and replacement of City
Safety™ components must only be per-
formed by a workshop - an authorised Volvo
workshop is recommended.
WARNING
City Safety™ does not engage in all driving
situations or traffic, weather or road condi-
tions.
City Safety™ does not react to vehicles
driving in a different direction from the car,
to small vehicles, motorcycles and bicycles
or to humans and animals.
City Safety™ can prevent collision at a
speed difference of less than 15 km/h - at a
higher speed difference, it is only possible
to reduce collision speed. In order to obtain
full brake function, the driver must depress
the brake pedal.
Never wait for City Safety™ to engage. The
driver always bears responsibility for main-
taining the proper distance and speed.
Function
Laser sensor transmitter and receiver window1.
City Safety™ detects the traffic in front of the
car with a laser sensor fitted in the top edge of
the windscreen. If there is an imminent risk of
collision, City Safety™ will automatically brake
the car, which may be experienced as sudden
braking.
If the speed difference is 4-15 km/h in relation
to the vehicle in front then City Safety™ can
completely prevent a collision.
City Safety™ activates a short, sharp braking
and stops the car in normal circumstances, just
behind the vehicle in front. For most drivers this
is well outside normal driving style and may be
experienced as being uncomfortable.

04 Driver support
Collision Warning with Auto Brake & Pedestrian Protection*
04
178* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
Collision Warning with Auto Brake is tempo-
rarily deactivated with reverse gear engaged.
Collision Warning with Auto Brake is not acti-
vated at low speeds - under 4 km/h, which is
why the system does not intervene in situations
where the car is approaching a vehicle in front
very slowly, e.g. when parking.
In situations where the driver demonstrates
active, aware driving behaviour, a collision
warning may be postponed slightly in order to
keep unnecessary warnings to a minimum.
When Auto Brake has prevented a collision
with a stationary object the car remains sta-
tionary for a maximum of 1.5 seconds. If the car
is braked for a vehicle in front that is moving,
then speed is reduced to the same speed as
that maintained by the vehicle in front.
On a car with manual gearbox the engine stops
when Auto Brake has stopped the car, unless
the driver manages to depress the clutch pedal
beforehand.
Camera sensor limitationsThe car’s camera sensor is also used - as well
as by Collision Warning with Auto Brake - by
the functions:
•Automatic main/dipped beam dimming -
see page 88
•Road sign information - see page 148
•Driver Alert Control – see page 182
•Lane Departure Warning – see page 185.
NOTE
Keep the windscreen surface in front of the
camera sensor clean from ice, snow, mist
and dirt.
Do not attach or fit anything to the wind-
screen in front of the camera sensor, as this
could reduce or prevent the function of one
or more camera-dependent systems.
The camera sensors have limitations similar to
the human eye, i.e. they "see" worse in dark-
ness, heavy snowfall or rain and in thick fog for
example. Under such conditions the functions
of camera-dependent systems could be sig-
nificantly reduced or temporarily disengaged.
Strong oncoming light, reflections in the car-
riageway, snow or ice on the road surface, dirty
road surfaces or unclear lane markings could
also significantly reduce camera sensor func-
tion when it is used to scan the carriageway
and detect pedestrians and other vehicles.
The field of vision of the camera sensor is lim-
ited, which is why pedestrians and vehicles
cannot be detected in some situations, or they
are detected later than anticipated.
During very high temperatures the camera is
temporarily switched off for about 15 minutesafter the engine is started in order to protect
camera functionality.
Fault tracing and action
If the display shows the message Windscreen
Sensors blocked then this means that the
camera sensor is blocked and cannot detect
pedestrians, vehicles or road markings in front
of the car.
At the same time, this means that - besides
Collision Warning with Auto Brake - the Auto-
matic main/dipped beam dimming, Road sign
information, Driver Alert Control and Lane
Departure Warning functions will not have full
functionality either.
The following table presents possible causes
for a message being shown along with the
appropriate action.

Driver Alert System - DAC*
04
182* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
General information on DAC
The DAC (Driver Alert Control) function is
intended to attract the driver's attention when
he/she starts to drive less consistently, e.g. if
he/she becomes distracted or starts to fall
asleep.
A camera detects the side markings painted on
the carriageway and compares the section of
the road with the driver's steering wheel move-
ments. The driver is alerted if the vehicle does
not follow the carriageway evenly.
NOTE
The camera sensor has certain limitations,
see page 178.
The objective for DAC is to detect slowly dete-
riorating driving ability and it is primarily
intended for major roads. The function is not
intended for city traffic.
In some cases driving ability is not affected
despite driver fatigue. In which case there may
not be any warning issued for the driver. For
this reason it is always important to stop and
take a break in the event of any signs of driver
fatigue, irrespective of whether or not DAC
issues a warning.
NOTE
The function must not be used to extend a
driving stint. Always plan breaks at regular
intervals and ensure that you are fully
rested.
LimitationIn some cases the system may issue a warning
despite driving ability not deteriorating, for
example:
•if the driver tests the LDW function.
•in strong side winds.
•on rutted road surfaces.
Operation
Some settings are made from the centre con-
sole display screen and its menu system. For
information on how the menu system is used,
see page 202.
The current status of Driver Alert can be
checked on the trip computer display with the
thumbwheel on the left-hand stalk switch.
