Adaptive Cruise Control – passing another vehicle
Passing another vehicleIf your vehicle’s speed is being regulated by ACC and the driver indicates that he/shewould like to pass the vehicle ahead by usingthe left turn signal, ACC can assist by accel-
erating briefly. This function is active at speeds above approximately 45 mph (70 km/h).
WARNING
Please be aware that this function will also cause the vehicle to accelerate briefly incertain situations other than passinganother vehicle, for example using the leftturn signal to indicate a lane change or aturn toward a highway exit at speedsabove approximately 45 mph (70 km/h).

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) – Queue Assist
Queue Assist is an added ACC feature that is linked to your vehicle's automatic transmis-sion.
IntroductionQueue Assist is an added ACC feature that islinked to your vehicle's automatic transmis-sion. Queue Assist consists of the following func- tions: •Enhanced speed interval (including when the vehicle is at a complete stop or ismoving at speed below 18 mph(30 km/h))
• Automatic standby mode when ACCchanges target vehicles
• No automatic braking when at a standstill
• The parking brake is applied automati-cally
Please note that the lowest speed that can be set is 18 mph (30 km/h), although ACC canmaintain a set speed/distance to a vehicleahead down to a standstill. Queue Assistconsists of the following features:
Enhanced speed interval
NOTE
The driver's door must be closed and the driver's seat belt must be fastened beforeACC can be put in active mode. If the driv-er's seat belt is taken off or if the driver'sdoor is opened, ACC will return to standbymode.
Your vehicle can maintain the set time interval to the vehicle ahead at any permissiblespeed, including a complete stop. In order to activate ACC at speeds below 18 mph (30 km/h):
• The vehicle ahead must be within a rea- sonable distance (not farther away thanapprox. 100 ft/30 meters)
• The lowest speed that can be selected is18 mph (30 km/h), although ACC will alsohelp maintain the set time interval to thevehicle ahead at lower speeds, includinga complete stop.
During short stops (less than approximately 3 seconds) in slow-moving traffic, your vehi-cle will begin moving again automatically assoon as the vehicle ahead begins to move. If it takes more than 3 seconds for the vehicle ahead to begin moving, ACC will be automat-ically go into standby mode.

Radar sensor's field of vision (shown in pink)
In certain situations, the radar sensor cannot detect vehicles at close quarters,for example a vehicle that suddenlyenters the lane between your vehicle andthe target vehicle.
Small vehicles, such as motorcycles, or vehicles not driving in the center of thelane may remain undetected.
In curves, the radar sensor may detect the wrong vehicle or lose sight of the tar-get vehicle.
WARNING
•Adaptive Cruise Control cannot cover all driving situations and traffic,weather and road conditions. The"Function" section provides informa-tion about limitations that the drivermust be aware of before using thisfeature.
• This system is designed to be a sup-plementary driving aid. It is not, how-ever, intended to replace the driver'sattention and judgement. The driver isresponsible for maintaining a safe dis-tance and speed and must intervene ifAdaptive Cruise Control does notmaintain a suitable speed or suitabledistance to the vehicle ahead.
• Maintenance of ACC components mayonly be performed by a trained andqualified Volvo technician.
WARNING
• Adaptive Cruise Control is not a colli- sion avoidance system. The driver isalways responsible for applying thebrakes if the system does not detectanother vehicle.
• Adaptive Cruise Control does not reactto people or animals, or small vehiclessuch as bicycles and motorcycles. Italso does not react to slow moving,parked or approaching vehicles, orstationary objects.
• Do not use Adaptive Cruise Control indemanding driving conditions such ascity driving or other heavy traffic situa-tions, in slippery conditions, whenthere is a great deal of water or slushon the road, during heavy rain orsnow, in poor visibility, on windingroads or on highway on- or off-ramps.

City Safety – introduction
City Safety™5
is a support system designed
to help the driver avoid low speed collisions when driving in slow-moving, stop-and-gotraffic. City Safety™ is not active if your vehicle’s speed is below approximately 2 mph(4 km/h). This means that City Safety™ willnot react if your vehicle approaches anothervehicle at very low speed, for example, whenparking. The function is active at speeds up to approximately 30 mph (50 km/h) and assiststhe driver by applying the brakes automati-cally, thereby avoiding or helping to reducethe effects of a collision. City Safety™ is designed to intervene as late as possible to help avoid unnecessary activa-tion. City Safety™ triggers brief, forceful braking if a low-speed collision is imminent. However,the system will not intervene in situationswhere the driver actively steers the vehicle orapplies the brakes, even if a collision cannotbe avoided. This is done in order to alwaysgive the driver’s actions highest priority. City Safety™ activates in situations where the driver has not applied the brakes in time, which means that the system cannot help thedriver in all situations. City Safety™ should not be used to alter the way in which the driver operates the vehicle.The driver should never rely solely on thissystem to safely stop the vehicle. Normally, the occupants of the vehicle will not be aware of City Safety™ except whenthe system intervenes when a low-speed col-lision is imminent. If the vehicle is also equipped with the optional Collision Warning with Full Auto-brake and Pedestrian Detection system, thetwo systems interact. For more informationabout the Collision Warning with Auto-brakesystem, see Collision warning – introduction(p. 209) .
WARNING
•
City Safety™ is a supplemental aid to the driver. It can never replace thedriver’s attention to traffic conditionsor his/her responsibility for operatingthe vehicle in a safe manner.
• City Safety™ does not function in alldriving situations or in all traffic,weather or road conditions.
WARNING
•
City Safety™ only reacts to vehicles traveling in the same direction as yourvehicle and does not react to smallvehicles or motorcycles or to people oranimals.
• City Safety™ is not activated whenyour vehicle is backing up.
• City Safety™ functions at speeds upto 30 mph (50 km/h). This system canhelp prevent a collision if the
differ-
ence in speed between your vehicle
and the vehicle ahead is less than9 mph (15 km/h). If the difference inspeed is greater, a collision cannot beavoided but the speed at which thecollision occurs can be reduced. Thedriver must apply the vehicle’s brakesfor full braking effect.
• City Safety™ will not intervene in apotential collision situation if the vehi-cle is being driven actively. The driveris always responsible for maintaining asafe distance to a vehicle or objectahead.

Collision warning* – Pedestrian detection
The system cannot identify all pedestrians
The Pedestrian and Cyclist Detection with Full Auto Brake system can only identify anddetect a pedestrian who is standing upright.This person can be standing still, walking orrunning. This means that the system has to be able to identify a person's head, arms, shoulders,legs, the upper and lower parts of the bodyand a person's pattern of movement whenwalking or running. If parts of the body are not visible to the cam- era, the system cannot detect the pedestrian. The following conditions apply:
• In order to detect a pedestrian, the sys- tem must have a full view of the person's

entire body and the person must be at least 32 in. (80 cm) tall.
• The system cannot detect a pedestriancarrying a large object.
• The camera's capacity to see a pedes-trian at dawn or dusk is limited, much asit is for the human eye.
• The camera's function is deactivated andwill not detect a pedestrian in darkness orin tunnels, even if there is street lighting inthe area.
WARNING
• Pedestrian and Cyclist Detection with Full Auto Brake is designed to be asupplementary driving aid. It is not,however, intended to replace the driv-er's attention and judgement. Thedriver is always responsible for operat-ing the vehicle in a safe manner.
• The system cannot detect all pedes-trians in all situations, such as in dark-ness/at night and cannot detect parti-ally hidden pedestrians, people whoare less than approx. 32 in. (80 cm)tall, or people wearing clothing thatobscures the contours of their bodies.

Collision warning* – limitations
Strong sunlight, reflections, extreme light contrasts, the use of sunglasses, or if thedriver is not looking straight ahead may makethe visual warning signal in the windshield dif-ficult to see. For this reason, always activatethe audible warning signal. Slippery driving conditions increase braking distance, which can reduce the system'scapacity to avoid a collision. In these condi-tions, the ABS and stability systems providethe best possible braking effect while helpingto maintain stability.
NOTE
The visual warning signal may be tempo- rarily disengaged in the event of high pas-senger compartment temperature due tostrong sunlight, etc. If this occurs, theaudible warning signal will be used, even ifit has been deactivated in the menu sys-tem.

Lane Departure Warning (LDW) – introduction
The LDW function is designed to help reduce the risk of accidents in situations where thevehicle unintentionally leaves its lane andthere is a risk of driving off the road or into theopposite lane.
Lane Departure Warning (LDW)
The illustration is genericLDW uses the camera located at the center, upper edge of the windshield to monitor theroad's/lane’s side marker lines. If the vehiclecrosses a side marker line or the road’s cen-ter dividing line, the driver will be alerted byan audible signal.
WARNING
This feature is only intended to assist the driver and does not function in all driving,weather, traffic or road conditions. As the driver, you have full responsibility for operating the vehicle in a safe manner.

NOTE
The door panel indicator light illuminates on the side of the vehicle where the sys-tem has detected another vehicle. If yourvehicle is passed on both sides at thesame time, both lights will illuminate.
The system helps provide information about:
• Other vehicles in your door mirrors' "blind area"
• Vehicles that are about to pass your vehi-cle in the left and/or right lanes
• Cross Traffic Alert (CTA) is a supple- mentary BLIS function
intended to
detect vehicles crossing behind your vehicle while you are backing up.
WARNING
• BLIS and CTA are information sys- tems, NOT warning or safety systemsand do not function in all situations.
• BLIS and CTA do not eliminate theneed for you to visually confirm theconditions around you, and the needfor you to turn your head and should-ers to make sure that you can safelychange lanes or back up.

BLIS* – Cross Traffic Alert (CTA)
Cross Traffic Alert (CTA) is a supplementary BLIS 12
function intended to detect vehicles
crossing behind your vehicle while you are backing up.
Park assist/CTA button On vehicles equipped with the optional Park assist system (p. 232), Cross Traffic Alert(CTA) can be deactivated/reactivated bypressing the Park assist button on the centerconsole. The BLIS indicator lights on the frontdoors will flash when CTA is reactivated bypressing the button.
WARNING
• BLIS and CTA are information sys- tems, NOT warning or safety systemsand do not function in all situations.
• BLIS and CTA do not eliminate theneed for you to visually confirm theconditions around you, and the needfor you to turn your head and should-ers to make sure that you can safelychange lanes or back up.
• As the driver, you have full responsibil-ity for changing lanes/backing up in asafe manner.
When does CTA function
How CTA works
CTA supplements BLIS by warning the driver of crossing traffic behind your vehicle, for example, when backing out of a parkingspace. It is primarily designed to detect another vehi- cle but in certain cases may also detectpedestrians or smaller objects such as bicy-cles. CTA is only activated when the vehicle is backing up and is activated automaticallywhen the gear selector is put in reverse.
• An audible signal indicates that CTA has detected something that is approachingfrom the side. The signal will come fromeither the left or right audio systemspeakers, depending on which the side ofyour vehicle the approaching vehicle/object has been detected.
• CTA also provides a warning by illuminat-ing the BLIS indicator lights.
• An icon will also illuminate in the Parkassist graphic on the center console dis-play.
LimitationsCTA has limitations in certain situations, for example, the CTA sensors cannot "see"through other parked vehicles or obstruc-tions. The following are several examples where CTA's "field of vision" may initially be limitedand approaching vehicles cannot be detecteduntil they are too close:
