Steering assistance during collisionrisks from oncoming traffic
This sub-function can help assist a distracted driver who has not noticed that the vehicle isveering into oncoming traffic.
The function provides assistance by swerving your vehi- cle back into your own lane.
Oncoming vehicles
Own vehicle
The function is active at speeds between 60-140 km/h (37-87 mph) on roads with clearlyvisible traffic lane markings/lines. If your vehicle is starting to veer from your own lane and a vehicle is approaching from the oppo- site direction, this function can help the driversteer the vehicle back into its own lane. However, the function will
not provide steering
assistance if the turn signal is used. The functionwill also not be activated if it detects that thedriver is actively operating the vehicle. After the system has automatically intervened, this text message will appear in the instrumentpanel:
•
Collision avoidance assistance –Automatic intervention
WARNING
• The "Steering assistance at risk of head- on collision" subfunction is supplemen-tary driver support intended to improvedriving safety – it cannot handle all situa-tions in all traffic, weather and road condi-tions.
• Pilot Assist is only activated if there is ahigh risk of collision – you must thereforenever wait for the function to intervene.
• The function is not a substitute for thedriver's attention and judgment. The driveris always responsible for ensuring thevehicle is driven in a safe manner, at theappropriate speed, with an appropriatedistance to other vehicles, and in accord-ance with current traffic rules and regula-tions.

Limitations of steering assistanceduring collision risks fromoncoming traffic The function may have limited functionality in certain situations and not intervene, e.g.:
•
for smaller vehicles such as motorcycles
• on roads that do not have clear lane mark- ings
• if more than half of your vehicle has movedinto the adjacent lane
• outside the speed range 60-140 km/h(37-87 mph)
• when the power steering works at reducedpower - e.g. during cooling due to overheat-ing (see section "Speed-dependent steeringforce").
Functionality may also be reduced in other situa-tions, such as: • road work
• winter driving conditions
• narrow roads
• poor road surfaces
• a very sporty driving style
• bad weather with reduced visibility.
In these demanding driving conditions, the func-tion may not be able to properly assist the driver.In these situations, it is recommended that it isturned off.

risks from behind
*
If you become distracted and do not notice your vehicle starting to veer out of the lane whileanother vehicle is approaching from behind or isin your vehicle's blind spot, this sub-function canhelp provide assistance.
The function provides assistance by steering your vehi- cle back into your own lane.
Another vehicle in blind spot zone
Own vehicle
If your vehicle is beginning to veer out of your lane while another vehicle is in your blind spot oranother vehicle is rapidly approaching in the next lane, this function can help the driver steer the vehicle back into its own lane. Even if the driver intentionally changes lanes using a turn signal without noticing another vehi- cle approaching, the function can provide assis-tance. The function is active at speeds between 60-140 km/h (37-87 mph) on roads with clearlyvisible traffic lane markings/lines. After the system has automatically intervened, this text message will appear in the instrumentpanel:

Park Assist*
The Park Assist function can help the driver
when maneuvering in tight spaces by indicating distances to obstacles using audible signals andgraphics in the center display.
Display view showing obstacle zones and sensor sec- tors.
The center display shows an overview of the vehi- cle in relation to objects that have been detected. The marked sector indicates where the obstacle is located. The closer the vehicle symbol is to amarked sector, the closer the detected obstacleis to your vehicle. The audible signals will also speed up the closer the obstacle is to the vehicle. The volume of theaudio system will be automatically lowered. Audible signals for obstacles in front and to the sides of the vehicle are active when the vehicle is moving but will cease after the vehicle has beenstationary for approx. 2 seconds. Audible signalsfor obstacles behind the vehicle will remain activeeven when the vehicle is stationary. If a detected obstacle is within 30 cm (1 ft) from the front or rear of the vehicle, the tone willbecome constant and the active sensor's fieldclosest to the vehicle symbol will be filled in. The volume of the Park Assist audible signals can be adjusted while the signal is being given using the
>II knob or in the center display's Top
view under
Settings.
NOTE
• Acoustic warnings are only given for objects directly in front of the vehicle'spath.
WARNING
•The Parking Assist function is supple- mentary driver support intended to facili-tate driving and help make it safer – itcannot handle all situations in all traffic,weather and road conditions.
• The parking sensors have dead/blindspots where objects cannot be detected.
• Pay particular attention to people andanimals near the vehicle.
• Parking Assist is not a substitute for thedriver's attention and judgment. The driveris always responsible for ensuring thevehicle is driven in a safe manner, at theappropriate speed, with an appropriatedistance to other vehicles, and in accord-ance with current traffic rules and regula-tions.

Park Assist front, rear and sides
Park Assist has different parameters depending on which part of the vehicle is approaching anobstacle.
Back
Note: This illustration is general and details may vary depending on model.
The rear sensors will be activated if the vehicle begins rolling backward or if reverse gear isengaged. The distance monitored begins approx. 1.5 meters (5 feet) behind the vehicle. The rear sensors will be automatically deactivated if the vehicle is backing up with a trailer attached.
NOTE
When reversing with e.g. a trailer or bike car- rier on the trailer hitch – without Volvo originaltrailer cables – the Parking Assist system mayhave to be turned off manually to prevent thesensors from reacting to these.
Side sensors
Park Assist's side sensors are automatically acti- vated when the engine is started. They are activeat speeds below 10 km/h (6 mph). The distance monitored begins approx. 30 cm (1 ft) from the sides. The audible signal for obsta-cles along the sides of the vehicle is emittedfrom the side speakers.
Front camera
Note: This illustration is general and details may vary depending on model.
Park Assist's front sensors are automatically acti- vated when the engine is started. The front sen-sors are active at speeds below 10 km/h(6 mph). The distance monitored begins approx. 80 cm (2.5 ft) in front of the vehicle.
NOTE
The Parking Assist system is deactivated when the parking brake is applied or when P
is selected on vehicles with automatic trans- mission.

Park Assist limitations
Park Assist may not be able to detect all condi- tions in all situations and functionality may there-fore be limited in certain cases.
The driver should be aware of the following limi- tations for Park Assist:
WARNING
Be extra cautious when reversing if this symbol isshown when a trailer, bikecarrier or similar is attachedand electrically connectedto the vehicle. The symbol indicates that
the rear parking assist sensors are deacti-
vated and will not warn of any obstacles.

CAUTION
Objects such as chains, thin and glossy poles or low obstacles may end up in the "signalshadow" and then go temporarily undetectedby the sensors – the pulsating tone may thenunexpectedly stop instead of becoming aconstant tone as expected. The sensors cannot detect high objects, such as protruding ramps.
• In such situations, pay extra attention andmaneuver/drive the vehicle very slowly orstop the current parking maneuver –there may be a high risk of damage tothe vehicle or other objects since infor-mation from the sensors is not alwaysreliable in such situations.
CAUTION
In some circumstances, the Park Assist Sys- tem may produce false warnings due to exter-nal sound sources with the same ultrasonicfrequencies as those the system works with. Examples of such sources are horns, wet tires on asphalt, pneumatic brakes, exhaust noisefrom motorcycles, etc.
NOTE
When a trailer hitch is configured with the vehicle electrical system, the trailer hitch pro-trusion is included when the function meas-ures the distance to objects behind the vehi-cle.
