Park assist camera
The parking camera is an assist system and is activated when reverse gear is engaged (canbe changed in the settings menu (p. 246)). The camera image is shown on the centre console's screen.
NOTE
When a towbar is configured with the car's electrical system, the protrusion of thetowbar is included when the functionmeasures the parking space.
WARNING
• The parking camera serves as an aid. It does not relieve the driver of respon-sibility when reversing.
• The camera has blind spots, whereobstacles cannot be detected.
• Be aware of people and animals in thevicinity of the car.
Function and operation
CAM
button location.
The camera shows what is behind the car and if something appears from the sides. The camera shows a wide area behind the car and part of the bumper and any towbar. Objects on the screen may appear to tilt slightly - this is normal.
NOTE
Objects on the display screen may be closer to the car than they appear to be onthe screen.
If another view is active the parking camera system takes over automatically and thecamera image is displayed on the screen. When reverse gear is engaged two unbroken lines are shown graphically which illustrate where the car's rear wheels will roll with thecurrent steering wheel angle, this facilitatestight parking, reversing into tight spaces andfor hitching a trailer. The car’s approximateexternal dimensions are illustrated by meansof two dashed lines. These park assist linescan be switched off in the settings menu. If the car is also equipped with parking assis- tance sensors* then their information is dis-played graphically as coloured fields in orderto illustrate the distance to detected obsta-cles, see the heading "Cars with reversingsensors" later in the text. The camera is active approx. 5 seconds after reverse gear has been disengaged or until thecar's speed exceeds 10 km/h forward or35 km/h backward.

WARNING
PAP does not work in all situations but is designed merely as a supplementary aid. The driver always has the final responsibil- ity for driving the vehicle in a safe mannerand for paying attention to the surround-ings and other road users approaching orpassing during parking.

Park Assist Pilot (PAP)* - function
The Park Assist Pilot (PAP – Park Assist Pilot) helps the driver to park by first checkingwhether a space is sufficiently large and thenturning the steering wheel and steering thecar into the space. The combined instrumentpanel uses symbols, graphics and text toshow when different operations should beperformed.
NOTE
The PAP function measures the space and turns the steering wheel - the driver's taskis to follow the combined instrument pan-el's instructions and select the gear(reverse/forward), control the speed, brakeand stop.
PAP can be activated if the following criteria are met once the engine has been started:
• The functions DSTC or ABS must not intervene while the PAP function is ena-bled - these can be activated due to asteep or slippery surface, for example;see the sections on Foot brake and Sta-bility and traction control system for moreinformation.
• A trailer must not be connected to thecar.
• The speed must be below 50 km/h.
Principle for PAP.
The PAP function parks the car using the fol- lowing steps:
1. The function searches for a parking space and measures it (A & B) - during measure- ment the speed must notexceed 30 km/h.
2. The car is steered into the space while reversing (C & D).
3. The car is straightened up in the space by driving back and forth (E & F ).

2 - Reversing in
During the Reversing step, PAP will steer the car into the parking space. Proceed as fol-lows:
1. Check that the area behind the car is
clear, then engage reverse gear.
2. Reverse slowly and carefully without touching the steering wheel - and no faster than approx. 7 km/h.
3. Keep an eye on the combined instrument panel and be prepared to stop the carwhen the graphics and text so request.
NOTE
•Keep your hands away from the steer- ing wheel when the PAP function isactivated.
• Make sure that the steering wheel isnot hindered in any way and can rotatefreely.
• For optimum results - Wait until thesteering wheel has been turned beforestarting to drive backwards/forwards.
3 - Straightening up
When the car has reversed into the parking space, it must be straightened up and stop-ped. 1. Engage 1st gear or
D position, wait until
the steering wheel has been turned, then drive slowly forwards.
2. Stop the car when the graphics and text message so request.
3. Engage reverse gear and drive back- wards slowly until the graphics and textmessage tell you to stop.
The function is disengaged automatically when parking is complete, and the graphicsand text message show that parking is com-plete. It may be necessary for the driver tocorrect the positioning afterwards. Only thedriver can determine whether the car is prop-erly parked.
IMPORTANT
The warning distance is shorter when the sensors are used by Active Park Assistcompared with when Park Assist uses thesensors.

BLIS* (Blind Spot Information System)
BLIS (Blind Spot Information System) is a function designed for providing support forthe driver when driving in dense traffic onroads with several lanes in the same direction. BLIS is a driver's aid intended to provide a warning about:
• vehicles in the car's blind spot
• rapidly approaching vehicles in the left and right-hand lanes closest to the car.
The BLIS function CTA (p. 255) (Cross Traffic Alert) is a driver's aid intended to provide awarning about:
• crossing traffic when the car is reversed.
WARNING
BLIS is a supplementary aid and does not work in all situations. BLIS is no substitute for a safe driving style and the use of rearview and door mir-rors. BLIS can never replace the driver's responsibility and attention - it is alwaysthe driver's responsibility to change lanesin a safe manner.

BLIS* (Blind Spot Information System) - operation
BLIS (Blind Spot Information System) is a function designed for providing support forthe driver when driving in dense traffic onroads with several lanes in the same direction.
Activate/deactivate BLISBLIS is activated when the engine is started.This is confirmed by the indicator lamps inthe door panels flashing once.
Button for activating/deactivating.
The BLIS function can be deactivated/acti-
vated by pressing the BLIS button on the
centre console. Some combinations of the selected equip- ment leave no vacant space for a button inthe centre console - in which case the func-tion is handled by the car's menu system (p.103) MY CAR . When BLIS is deactivated/activated the lampin the button extinguishes/illuminates and thecombined instrument panel confirms thechange with a text message. The door panelindicator lamps flash once upon activation. To extinguish the message:
• Press the left stalk switch
OK button.
or
• Wait approx. 5 seconds - the message extinguishes.
When BLIS operates
Principle for BLIS: 1. Zone in blind spot. 2. Zone for rapidly approaching vehicle.
The BLIS function is active at speeds above approx. 10 km/h. The system is designed to react when: •
the driver's vehicle is overtaken by other vehicles
• the driver's vehicle is rapidly caught upby another vehicle.
When BLIS detects a vehicle in zone 1 or a quickly approaching vehicle in zone 2, thedoor panel BLIS lamp illuminates with a con-stant glow. If the driver activates the directionindicator on the same side as the warning inthis situation then the BLIS lamp will changefrom a constant glow to flashing with a moreintense light.
WARNING
BLIS does not work in sharp bends. BLIS does not work when the car is being reversed.
Limitations
• Dirt, ice and snow covering sensors can reduce functionality and make it impossi-ble to provide warnings. BLIS cannotdetect hazards if it is covered.
• Do not affix any objects, tape or labels inthe area of the sensors.
• BLIS is deactivated when a trailer is con-nected to the car's electrical system.

CTA (Cross Traffic Alert)*
CTA (Cross Traffic Alert) is a driver aid intended to warn about crossing traffic whenthe car is reversing. CTA is a supplement toBLIS (p. 253).
Activate/deactivate CTACTA is activated when the engine is started.This is confirmed by the indicator lamps forBLIS in the door panels flashing once.
On/Off for parking assistance and CTA sensors.
The CTA function can be deactivated with the Parking assistance (p. 240) On/Off button.The BLIS lamp flashes once on activation
WARNING
CTA is a supplementary aid and does not work in all situations. CTA is no substitute for a safe driving style and the use of rearview and door mirrors. CTA can never replace the driver's respon- sibility and attention - it is always the driv-er's responsibility to reverse in a safe man-ner.
When CTA operates
Principle for CTA.CTA supplements the BLIS function by being able to see crossing traffic from the side dur-ing reversing, such as when reversing out of aparking space. CTA is primarily designed to detect vehicles. In favourable conditions, it may also be ableto detect smaller objects, such as cyclistsand pedestrians.

CTA is only active during reversing and is activated automatically when the gearbox'sreverse position is selected. •If CTA detects something approaching from the side, an acoustic warning signalsounds. The signal comes from either theleft or the right-hand speaker, dependingon the direction from which the object isapproaching.
• CTA also warns by illuminating the BLISlamps.
• An additional warning is provided in theform of an illuminated icon in the displayscreen's PAS graphics (p. 240).
LimitationsCTA does not perform optimally in all situa- tions, but has a certain limitation - for exam-ple, the CTA sensors cannot "see" throughother parked vehicles or obstructing objects. Here are some examples of when CTA's "field of vision" may be limited from the beginningand approaching vehicles cannot therefore bedetected until they are very close:
The car is parked deep inside a parking slot.
Blind CTA sector.
Sector where CTA can detect/"see".
In an angled parking slot CTA can be completely "blind" on one side.
However, when the driver is slowly reversing the car, the angle is changed in relation to the vehicle/object that is blocking, at which theblind sector rapidly decreases. Examples of further limitations:
• Dirt, ice and snow covering sensors can reduce functionality and make it impossi-ble to provide warnings. CTA cannotdetect hazards if it is covered.
• Do not affix any objects, tape or labels inthe area of the sensors.
• CTA is deactivated when a trailer is con-nected to the car’s electrical system.
IMPORTANT
Repair of the BLIS and CTA functions' components or repainting the bumpersmust only be performed by a workshop -an authorised Volvo workshop is recom-mended.
