Adjusting the set speed
After a speed has been set, it can be increased or decreased by using the
or buttons.
Press and hold down or until the vehicle reaches the desired speed. This will become the set speed when the
button is released.
Press or for approximately a half second and release the button to increase or decrease vehicle speed by
approximately 1 mph (1.6 km/h).
NOTE
A temporary increase in speed by pressing the accelerator pedal, for less than 1 minute (e.g. when passing another
car), does not affect the current cruise control setting. The vehicle will automatically return to the previously set
speed when the accelerator pedal is released.
If one of the cruise control buttons is kept depressed for more than approx. 1 minute cruise control is disengaged.
The engine must then be switched off in order to reset cruise control.
Automatic deactivation
Cruise control is automatically deactivated temporarily if one of the following occurs:
If the speed drops below approximately 20 mph (30 km/h).
When the brake pedal is depressed.
If the gear selector is moved to position N.
During wheel spin or wheel lock-up.
If the vehicle's speed is increased by using the accelerator pedal for more than 1 minute.
The currently set speed will be saved in the system's memory.

Temporary deactivation
The driver can temporarily deactivate cruise control by pressing 0. The saved speed is shown in brackets in the
information display.
Resume set speed
If cruise control has been deactivated temporarily, it can be reactivated by pressing
. The vehicle's speed returns to
the most recently set speed.
WARNING
There may be a significant increase in speed after the
button has been pressed.
Deactivation
Cruise control is disengaged with CRUISE , by putting the gear selector in Neutral, or by switching off the engine. The
set speed is cleared.
WARNING
Cruise control should not be used in heavy traffic or when driving on wet or slippery roads. Cruise control may not

is pressed.
Deactivation due to action by the driver
ACC is deactivated:
when the brakes are applied
if the gear selector is moved to N
if the accelerator pedal is depressed for an extended period.
NOTE
If the accelerator pedal is only depressed for a short time, such as when passing another vehicle, ACC is deactivated
temporarily and is reactivated when the pedal is released.
Automatic deactivation
Adaptive cruise control is linked to other systems such as ABS, the stability and traction control system (DSTC) and
the Distance Alert system. If any of these systems are not functioning properly, adaptive cruise control is automatically
deactivated.
In the event of automatic deactivation a signal will sound and the message Cruise Control Canceled is shown in the
display. The driver must then intervene and adapt the vehicle's speed to the surrounding traffic.
Automatic deactivation may be caused if:
the vehicle's speed falls below 20 mph (30 km/h)
the wheels lose traction or if the anti-lock brake system (ABS) is activated
brake temperature is high
engine speed (rpm) is too low
the radar sensor is obstructed by, for example, wet snow or rain.

The radar sensor and its limitations
The radar sensor is used by both Adaptive Cruise Control and the Collision Warning System with Auto-brake (see
page 168
). It is designed to detect cars or larger vehicles driving in the same direction as your vehicle.
WARNING
ProCarManuals.com
Page 153 of 274
Accessories or other objects must not be installed in front of the grille.
Modification of the radar sensor could make its use illegal.
The radar sensor's capacity to detect vehicles ahead is impeded:
if the radar sensor is obstructed and cannot detect other vehicles, for example in heavy rain, or if snow or other
objects are obscuring the 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.
The radar sensor has a limited field of vision. In some situations it may detect a vehicle later than expected or not
detect vehicles at all.
In certain situations, the radar sensor cannot detect vehicles at close quarters, for example a vehicle that suddenly
enters the lanes between your vehicle and the one that the system has already detected.
Small vehicles, such as motorcycles, or vehicles not driving in the center of the lane may remain undetected.
In curves, the radar sensor may detect the wrong vehicle or lose a detected vehicle from view.

on the camera or cause these systems to temporarily stop functioning.
Never place any objects, decals, etc., on the windshield in front of the camera. This could reduce or block the
camera's function, and could cause one or more of the systems that utilize the camera to stop functioning.
Strong sunlight, reflections from the road surface, a dirty road surface, or unclear lane marker lines may
drastically reduce the camera's capacity to detect the side of a lane or another vehicle.
Fault tracing and actions
If the message Camera blocked See manual is displayed, this means that the camera is obscured and cannot detect
vehicle or road marker lines in front of the vehicle.
This, in turn, means that Collision Warning with Auto-brake, Lane Departure Warning, and Driver Alert Control will
not have full functionality.
The table lists possible causes for this message being displayed, and suitable actions.

Check condition of drive belts.
Check state of the battery's charge.
Examine tires carefully (the spare tire as well), and replace those that are worn. Check tire pressures.
The brakes, front wheel alignment, and steering gear should be checked by a trained and qualified Volvo service
technician only.
Check all lights, including high beams.
Reflective warning triangles are legally required in some states/provinces.
Have a word with a trained and qualified Volvo service technician if you intend to drive in countries where it may
be difficult to obtain the correct fuel.
Consider your destination. If you will be driving through an area where snow or ice are likely to occur, consider
snow tires.
Cold weather precautions
If you wish to check your vehicle before the approach of cold weather, the following advice is worth noting:
Make sure that the engine coolant contains 50 percent antifreeze. Any other mixture will reduce freeze protection.
This gives protection against freezing down to - 31°F (-35°C). The use of "recycled" antifreeze is not approved by
Volvo. Different types of antifreeze must not be mixed.
Volvo recommends using only genuine Volvo antifreeze in your vehicle's radiator.
Try to keep the fuel tank well filled - this helps prevent the formation of condensation in the tank. In addition, in
extremely cold weather conditions it is worthwhile to add fuel line de -icer before refueling.
The viscosity of the engine oil is important. Oil with low viscosity (thinner oil) improves cold-weather starting as
well as decreasing fuel consumption while the engine is warming up. For winter use, 5W -30 oil, particularly the
synthetic type, is recommended. Be sure to use good quality oil but do not use cold-weather oil for hard driving or in
warm weather. See page 276
for more information on engine oil.
NOTE
Synthetic oil is not used when the oil is changed at the normal maintenance intervals except at owner request and at
additional charge.
The load placed on the battery is greater during the winter since the windshield wipers, lighting, etc. are used more
often. Moreover, the capacity of the battery decreases as the temperature drops. In very cold weather, a poorly charged
battery can freeze and be damaged. It is therefore advisable to check the state of charge more frequently and spray an
anti-rust oil on the battery posts.
Volvo recommends the use of snow tires on all four wheels for winter driving. See the information on page 259.
To prevent the washer fluid reservoir from freezing, add washer solvents containing antifreeze. This is important
since dirt is often splashed on the windshield during winter driving, requiring the frequent use of the washers and
wipers. Volvo Washer Solvent should be diluted as follows: Down to 14° F (-10° C): 1 part washer solvent and 4 parts
water Down to 5° F (-15° C):
195 05 During your trip
Driving recommendations
1 part washer solvent and 3 parts water Down to 0° F (-18° C): 1 part washer solvent and 2 parts water Down to -18°
F (-28° C): 1 part washer solvent and 1 part water.
Use Volvo Teflon Lock Spray in the locks.
Avoid using de -icing sprays as they can cause damage to the locks.
