Malfunction Indicator Light
As you drive, a computer called On-Board Diag- nostics II (OBDII) monitors your vehicle's engine,transmission, electrical and emission systems. The malfunction indicator light will illuminate if the computer senses a condition that potentiallymay need correcting. When this happens, pleasehave your vehicle checked by a trained and quali-fied Volvo service technician as soon as possible. A malfunction indicator light may have many cau- ses. Sometimes, you may not notice a change inyour car's behavior. Even so, an uncorrected con-dition could hurt fuel economy, emission controls,and drivability. Extended driving without correct-ing the cause could even damage other compo-nents in your vehicle. This light may illuminate if the fuel filler cap is not closed tightly or if the engine was running whilethe vehicle was refueled.
Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)
If the warning light comes on, there may be a malfunction in the ABS system (the standardbraking system will still function). Check the sys-tem by:
1. Stopping in a safe place and switching off
the ignition.
2. Restart the engine.
3. If the warning light goes off, no further action is required. If the indicator light remains on, the vehicle should be driven to a trained and qualified Volvoservice technician for inspection, see Brakes –general (p. 277) for additional information.
Rear fog lights
This symbol indicates that the rear fog lights are on.
Stability system
This indicator symbol flashes when the stability system is actively working to stabilize the vehicle,see Stability system – introduction (p. 172) formore detailed information.
Stability system - Sport mode
This symbol illuminates to indicate that the stabil- ity system's
Sport mode has been activated to
help provide maximum tractive force, for example when driving with snow chains, or driving in deepsnow or loose sand.
Low fuel level
When this light comes on, the vehicle should be refueled as soon as possible. See Refueling –fuel requirements (p. 286) for information aboutfuel and refueling.
Information symbol
The information symbol lights up and a text mes- sage is displayed to provide the driver with nec-essary information about one of the vehicle's sys-tems. The message can be erased and the sym- bol can be turned off by pressing the OK button
(see Information display – menu controls (p. 114) for information) or this will take place automatically after a short time (the length oftime varies, depending on the function affected). The information symbol may also illuminate together with other symbols.

–Press the
CRUISE button (1).
> The symbol
illuminates and the text(---) mph (5) indicates that cruise control
is in standby mode.
NOTE
Putting cruise control in standby mode does not set a cruising speed.
Setting a speed
Use the or buttons set the vehicle's cur-
rent speed. The set speed is shown in the display.
NOTE
Cruise control cannot be engaged at speeds below 20 mph (30 km/h).
Adjusting the set speedAfter a speed has been set, it can be increased or decreased by using the
or buttons.
1. Press
or briefly and release the but-
ton to increase or decrease vehicle speed by approximately 1 mph or 1 km/h.
> This will become the set speed when the button is released. 2. Press and hold one of these buttons to
increase/decrease the speed in 1-mph or 1- km/h increments. Release the button whenyou have reached the desired speed.
NOTE
• A temporary increase in speed by press- ing the accelerator pedal, for less than1 minute (e.g. when passing another car),does not affect the current cruise controlsetting. The vehicle will automaticallyreturn to the previously set speed whenthe accelerator pedal is released.
• If one of the cruise control buttons iskept depressed for more than approx.1 minute cruise control is disengaged.The engine must then be switched off inorder to reset cruise control.

Toggling between ACC and CC (standard Cruise Control)
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) helps the driver maintain a safe distance/time interval to the vehi-cle ahead.
Switching from ACC to CCThis may be useful if, for example, the radar sen- sor is obstructed in some way. See AdaptiveCruise Control – limitations (p. 192) for addi-tional information.
• Press and hold the
button; the symbol in
the instrument panel will switch from

.
> This activates the standard cruise control function (see Cruise control (CC) – introduc- tion (p. 179)).
WARNING
Switching from ACC to CC means that:
• Your vehicle will
no longer automatically
maintain a set distance to a vehicle ahead.
• Only the set speed will be maintained andthe driver will have to apply the brakeswhen needed.
Switching from CC to ACC
Switch off cruise control by pressing once or
twice as needed according to the instructions in

184 to maintain a 2-second interval will vary according the speed of the vehicles.
WARNING
•
Adaptive Cruise Control is not a collision avoidance system. The driver is alwaysresponsible for applying the brakes if thesystem does not detect another vehicle.
• Adaptive Cruise Control does not react topeople or animals, or small vehicles suchas bicycles and motorcycles. It also doesnot react to slow moving, parked orapproaching vehicles, or stationaryobjects.
• Do not use Adaptive Cruise Control indemanding driving conditions such as citydriving or other heavy traffic situations, inslippery conditions, when there is a greatdeal of water or slush on the road, duringheavy rain or snow, in poor visibility, onwinding roads or on highway on- or off-ramps.
The distance to the vehicle ahead (in the same lane) is monitored by a radar sensor. Your vehi-cle's speed is regulated by accelerating andbraking. The brakes may emit a sound when theyare being modulated by the adaptive cruise con-trol system. This is normal.
WARNING
The brake pedal moves when the adaptive cruise control system modulates the brakes.Do not rest your foot under the brake pedal.
The ACC system is designed to smoothly regu- late speed. However, the driver must apply thebrakes in situations that require immediate brak-ing. This applies when there are great differencesin speed between vehicles, or if the vehicle aheadbrakes suddenly.
WARNING
Due to limitations in the radar sensor, braking may occur unexpectedly or not at all, seeAdaptive Cruise Control – limitations (p. 192).
Adaptive Cruise Control can be put in active mode at any permitted speed. However, if thevehicle's speed falls below 18 mph (30 km/h) orif engine speed (rpm) becomes too low, ACC dis-engages (goes into standby mode) and will nolonger modulate the brakes. The driver will thenhave to maintain a safe distance to the vehicleahead.
WARNING
When Adaptive Cruise Control is in standby mode or is switched off completely, thebrakes will not be modulated automatically.The driver must assume full control over thevehicle.
Warning light—driver braking requiredAdaptive Cruise Control can exert brake force that is equivalent to approximately 40% of thevehicle's total braking capacity. In situationsrequiring more brake force than ACC can provideand if the driver does not apply the brakes, anaudible signal from the Collision Warning systemwill sound and warning light will illuminate (see Collision warning * – function (p. 210)) in the
windshield to alert the driver to react.
NOTE
Strong sunlight, reflections, extreme light con- trasts, the use of sunglasses, or if the driver isnot looking straight ahead may make the vis-ual warning signal in the windshield difficult tosee.

DRIVER SUPPORT

WARNING
Adaptive Cruise Control only warns of vehicles detected by the radar sensor, see AdaptiveCruise Control – limitations (p. 192). In somecases there may be no warning or the warn-ing may be delayed. The driver should alwaysapply the brakes when necessary.
Steep inclines and/or heavy loadsACC is primarily intended for use on fairly level roads. The system may have difficulty maintainingthe correct distance to a vehicle ahead on steepinclines, if the vehicle is carrying a heavy load oris towing a trailer. In these situations, the drivershould always be prepared to apply the brakes ifnecessary.

WARNING
The vehicle may accelerate quickly after has been pressed if its current speed is con- siderably lower than the set speed.
Standby mode due to action by the driver
ACC is temporarily deactivated and put in standby mode:• if the brakes are applied
• if the gear selector is moved to
N
• if the driver drives faster than the set speed for more than
1 minute.
In this happens, the driver will have to regulate
the vehicle's speed.
NOTE
If the accelerator pedal is only depressed for a short time, such as when passing anothervehicle, ACC is deactivated temporarily and isreactivated when the pedal is released.
Automatic standby modeACC is linked to other systems such as the sta- bility system. If this system is not functioningproperly, ACC will switch off automatically. In the event of automatic deactivation, an audible signal will sound and the message
Cruise control Cancelled
is shown in the instrument
panel. The driver must then intervene and adapt the vehicle's speed to the surrounding traffic andregulate the distance to the vehicle ahead. An automatic switch to standby mode may be caused if:
• engine speed (rpm) is too high/low
• The driver's door is opened
• The driver unbuckles his/her seat belt
• the vehicle's speed goes below 18 mph(30 km/h)
• the wheels lose traction
• brake temperature is high
• the radar sensor is obstructed by, for exam-ple, wet snow or rain.
Resuming the set speedIf ACC is in standby mode, it can be reactivated by pressing the
button on the steering wheel
keypad. The vehicle will return to the most recently set speed.
WARNING
The vehicle may accelerate quickly after has been pressed if its current speed is con- siderably lower than the set speed.
Turning ACC off completely
Controls and display
Resume previous settings.
Off/On/Standby mode
• From standby mode, press (2)
once.
• From active mode, press (2)
twice.
The set speed and time interval are then cleared from the system's memory and cannot be resumed by pressing (1)
.

DRIVER SUPPORT
190The driver will then have to reactivate ACC in one of the following ways: •
By pressing
• By accelerating up to at least 3 mph (4 km/h). ACC will then resume following thevehicle ahead.
Your vehicle will then resume following the vehi-cle ahead at the set time interval.
NOTE
ACC can remain active and keep your vehicle at a standstill for up to 4 minutes. After4 minutes have elapsed, the parking brakewill be engaged and ACC will go into standbymode. To reactivate ACC, the driver must release the parking brake (see Parking brake – generalinformation (p. 280)).
Automatic standby mode when ACC changes target vehicles
If the vehicle ahead turns suddenly, there may be a sta- tionary vehicle ahead
The following only applies at speeds below approximately 18 mph (30 km/h) :
If ACC changes target vehicles (the vehicle thatthe radar sensor has detected) from a movingvehicle to a stationary one, the system will applythe brakes in your vehicle.
WARNING
At speeds above 18 mph (30 km/h), ACC
will not react to a stationary vehicle and apply the brakes but will instead accelerate to thepreviously set speed. The driver must activelyapply the brakes to stop the vehicle.
ACC disengages and goes into standby mode if: • Your vehicle's speed goes below 10 mph (15 km/h) and ACC cannot determine if thetarget object is a stationary vehicle or some other type of object such as e.g., a speedbump.
• Your vehicle's speed goes below 10 mph(15 km/h) and the vehicle ahead turns sothat ACC no longer has a target vehicle tofollow.
No automatic braking when at a
standstill
In certain situations, ACC will no longer apply thebrakes and go into standby mode while the vehi-cle is not moving. This means that the driver willhave to apply the brakes. This happens if:
• The driver presses the brake pedal
• The parking brake is activated
• The gear selected is moved to
P, N or R
• The driver presses the
button to put ACC
in standby mode
The parking brake is applied
automatically
In certain situations, ACC will apply the parking brake in order to continue keeping the vehicle ata standstill. This happens if:
• The driver opens the door or takes off his/her seat belt
• The stability system is put in Sport mode(see Stability system – operation (p. 173))

Radar sensor
The radar sensor is designed to help detect cars or larger vehicles driving in the same direction asyour vehicle, in the same lane.
The radar sensor and its limitationsIn addition to being used by the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), the radar sensor is also used byDistance Alert (see Distance Alert – introduction(p. 197)) and Collision Warning with Full Auto-brake and Pedestrian Detection (see Collisionwarning – introduction (p. 208)).
WARNING
• If there is visible damage to the front grille or you suspect that the radar sensormay be damaged in any way, contact atrained and qualified Volvo service techni-cian as soon as possible. The radar sen-sor may only function partially (or not atall) if it is damaged or is not securely fas-tened in place.
• Accessories or other objects, such asextra headlights, must not be installed infront of the grille.
• Modification of the radar sensor couldmake its use illegal.
The radar sensor's capacity to detect vehicles ahead is impeded: • if the radar sensor is obstructed and cannotdetect other vehicles, for example in heavy rain, or if snow or other objects are obscuringthe radar sensor.
NOTE
Keep the area in front of the radar sensor clean.
•
if the speed of vehicles ahead is significantly different from your own speed.
