General information on the speed
limiter
A speed limiter (Speed Limiter) can be regar-
ded as a reverse cruise control - the driver reg-
ulates the speed using the accelerator pedal
but is prevented from accidentally exceeding a
pre-selected/set speed by the speed limiter.

Adaptive cruise control*
04
154* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
General information on ACC
The adaptive cruise control (ACC – Adaptive
Cruise Control) helps the driver maintain a safe
distance from the vehicle ahead. An adaptive
cruise control provides a more relaxing driving
experience on long journeys on motorways
and long straight main roads in smooth traffic
flows.
The driver sets the desired speed and time
interval to the car in front. When the radar
detector detects a slower vehicle in front of the
car, the speed is automatically adapted to that.
When the road is clear again the car returns to
the selected speed.
If the adaptive cruise control is switched off or
set to the standby mode and the car comes too
close to a vehicle in front, then the driver is
warned by Distance Warning (see page 165)
about the short distance.WARNING
The driver must always be observant with
regard to the traffic conditions and intervene
when the adaptive cruise control is not
maintaining a suitable speed or suitable dis-
tance.
The adaptive cruise control cannot handle
all traffic, weather and road conditions.
Read the whole of this section for informa-
tion on the limitations of the adaptive cruise
control. The driver must be familiar with this
information before using the adaptive cruise
control.
The driver always bears responsibility for
maintaining the correct distance and speed,
even when the adaptive cruise control is
being used.
IMPORTANT
Maintenance of adaptive cruise control
components must only be performed at a
workshop - an authorised Volvo workshop
is recommended.
Automatic gearboxCars with automatic gearbox have enhanced
functionality with the adaptive cruise control's
Queue Assistant, see page 159.

Changing the speedTo change the stored speed:
•Adjust with short presses on or -
every press gives +/- 5 km/h. The last
presses made are stored in the memory.
If speed is increased using the accelerator
pedal prior to pressing the
/ button,
then it is the car's current speed when the
button is pressed that is stored in the
cruise control.
•In active mode the button has the same
function as
but results in a lower
increase in speed: + 1 km/h.
NOTE
If any of the Cruise Control buttons are held
down for more than approx. 1 minute, it is
blocked and disabled. To be able to reacti-
vate Cruise Control, the car must be stop-
ped and the engine restarted.
In certain situations, cruise control cannot
be activated. Then the display shows
Cruise control Unavailable, see
page 162.
Set time intervalDifferent time intervals to the
vehicle in front can be
selected and shown in the
display as 1-5 horizontal lines
- the more lines the longer the
time interval. One line corre-
sponds to approx. 1 second
to the vehicle in front, 5 lines
approx. 3 seconds.
To set/change the time interval:
•Increase or decrease with the steering
wheel keypad's thumbwheel (or the but-
tons
/ for cars without Speed limiter).
At low speed, when the distances are short, the
adaptive cruise control increases the time
interval slightly.
The adaptive cruise control allows the time
interval to vary noticeably in certain situations
in order to allow the car to follow the vehicle in
front smoothly and comfortably.
Note that small intervals only allow the driver a
short time to react and take action if any
unforeseen traffic problem should arise.The number of lines for the
selected time interval is
shown during the setting itself
and for several seconds after-
wards. Then a smaller scale
version of the symbol is
shown to the right of the dis-
play. The same symbol is also shown when
Distance Warning is activated, see page 165.
NOTE
Only use the time intervals permitted by
local traffic regulations.
If Cruise Control does not appear to react
when activated, this may be because the
time distance to the car in front is preventing
an increase in speed.
The higher the speed the longer the calcu-
lated distance in metres for a given time
interval.
Temporary deactivation - standby modeTo temporarily disengage Cruise control and
set it in standby mode:
•Press the steering wheel button .
> Set speed is shown in brackets in the dis-
play, e.g.

Keypad without Speed limiter*To temporarily disengage Cruise control and
set it in standby mode:
•Press the steering wheel button .
Standby mode due to driver interventionCruise control is temporarily disengaged and
set in standby mode if:
•the foot brake is used
•the clutch pedal is depressed for longer
than 1 minute6
•the gear selector is moved to N position
(automatic gearbox)
•the driver maintains a speed higher than
the set speed for longer than 1 minute.
The driver must then regulate the speed.
A temporary increase in speed with the accel-
erator pedal, e.g. during overtaking, does not
affect the cruise control setting - the car returns
to the last stored speed when the accelerator
pedal is released.
Automatic standby modeThe Adaptive cruise control is dependent on
other systems, e.g.. DSTC (see page 146). Ifany of these systems stop working then cruise
control is automatically deactivated.
In the event of automatic deactivation a signal
will sound and the message
Cruise control
Cancelled is shown in the display. The driver
must then intervene and adapt the speed and
distance to the vehicle ahead.
An automatic deactivation can be due to:
•engine speed is too low/high
•speed falls below 30 km/h7
•wheels lose traction
•brake temperature is high
•the radar sensor is covered e.g. by wet
snow or heavy rain (radar waves blocked).
Resume set speedCruise control in standby mode is re-activated
with one press on the steering wheel button
- the speed is then set to the last stored
speed.
NOTE
A significant increase in speed may arise
after the speed has been resumed with .
Overtaking another vehicleWhen the car is following another vehicle and
the driver indicates an imminent overtake with
the direction indicator
8, the Cruise control
helps to briefly accelerate the car towards the
vehicle in front.
The function is active at speeds
above 70 km/h.
WARNING
Be aware that this function can be activated
in more situations other than during over-
taking, e.g. when a direction indicator is
used to indicate a change of lane or exit to
another road - the car will then accelerate
briefly.

City Safety™
04
169
If the difference in speed between the vehicles
is greater than 15 km/h then City Safety™ may
not prevent the collision on its own. To obtain
full brake force, the driver must depress the
brake pedal. This could then make it possible
to prevent a collision, even at speed differen-
ces above 15 km/h.
When the function is activated and brakes, the
instrument panel display shows a message to
the effect that the function is/has been active.
NOTE
The brake lights come on when City
Safety™ brakes the car.
Operation
NOTE
The City Safety™ function is always ena-
bled after the engine has been started via
key position I and II (see page 78 on key
positions).
On and OffIn certain situations, it may advisable to disable
City Safety™, e.g. where leafy branches could
sweep over the bonnet and/or windscreen.
After starting the engine City Safety™ can be
deactivated as follows:
•Using MY CAR on the centre console dis-
play screen with its menu system, search
and locate Settings
Car settings
Driver support systemsCity Safety.
Select the
Off option. For more information
on the menu system MY CAR, see
page 202.
However, the function will be enabled the
next time the engine is started, regardless
of whether the system was enabled or dis-
abled when the engine was switched off.
WARNING
The laser sensor also transmits laser light
when City Safety™ is disabled manually.
To enable City Safety™ again:
•Follow the same procedure as for disa-
bling, but select the On option.
Limitations
The sensor in City Safety™ is designed to
detect cars and other large vehicles in front of
the car irrespective of whether it is day or night.
However, the sensor has limitations and has
poorer functionality - or none at all - in e.g.
heavy snowfall or rain, dense fog, dust storms
or snow flurries. Mist, dirt, ice or snow on the
windscreen may disrupt the function.Low-hanging objects, e.g. a flag/pennant for
projecting load, or accessories such as auxili-
ary lamps and bull bars that are higher than the
bonnet limit the function.
The laser light from the sensor in City
Safety™ measures how the light is reflected.
The sensor cannot detect objects with low
reflection capacity. The rear sections of the
vehicle generally reflect the light sufficiently
thanks to the number plate and rear light reflec-
tors.
On slippery road surfaces the braking distance
is extended, which may reduce the capacity of
City Safety™ to avoid a collision. In such sit-
uations the ABS and DSTC systems will pro-
vide best possible braking force with main-
tained stability.
When your own car is reversing, City Safety™
is temporarily deactivated.
City Safety™ is not activated at low speeds -
under 4 km/h, which is why the system does
not intervene in situations where a vehicle in
front is being approached very slowly, e.g.
when parking.
Driver commands are always prioritised, which
is why City Safety™ does not intervene in sit-
uations where the driver is steering or acceler-
ating in a clear manner, even if a collision is
unavoidable.
