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.

The camera’s limitations
The camera has the same limitations as the human eye. The camera is used by Pedestrian and Cyclist Detection with Full Auto Brake Collision warn-ing – introduction (p. 209), Active High Beams(Active high beams (AHB)* (p. 90)), Road SignInformation (Road Sign Information (RSI)* –introduction (p. 179)) and Driver Alert System(Driver Alert System (p. 222)) with LaneDeparture Warning or Lane Keeping Aid.
NOTE
• To help protect the camera in very hot conditions, it may be temporarilyswitched off for approximately 15minutes after the engine has beenstarted.
• Keep the section of the windshield infront of the camera clean and free ofice, snow, or condensation.
WARNING
•
The camera has the same type of limi- tations as the human eye, i.e., it can-not see as well in heavy snowfall orrain, thick fog or in heavy blowing dustor snow. In such conditions, systemsdepending on the camera may experi-ence greatly reduced functionality ormay be temporarily deactivated.
• Never place any objects, decals, etc.,on the windshield in front of the cam-era. This could reduce or block thecamera’s function, and could causeone or more of the systems that utilizethe camera to stop functioning.
• Strong sunlight, reflections from theroad surface, ice or snow covering theroad, a dirty road surface, or unclearlane marker lines may drasticallyreduce the camera’s capacity todetect the side of a lane, a pedestrian,a cyclist or another vehicle.

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.

• 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:

WARNING
•Always remove the remote key from the ignition slot when leaving the vehi-cle and ensure that the ignition inmode
0 (see Ignition modes (p. 79) for
information about the ignition modes).
• On vehicles with the optional keylessdrive, never remove the remote keyfrom the vehicle while it is being drivenor towed.
• Always place the gear selector in Parkand apply the parking brake beforeleaving the vehicle. Never leave thevehicle unattended with the enginerunning.
• Always open garage doors fully beforestarting the engine inside a garage toensure adequate ventilation. Theexhaust gases contain carbon monox-ide, which is invisible and odorless butvery poisonous.
NOTE
•
After a cold start, idle speed may be noticeably higher than normal for ashort period. This is done to help bringcomponents in the emission controlsystem to their normal operating tem-perature as quickly as possible, whichenables them to control emissions andhelp reduce the vehicle's impact on the environment 3
.
CAUTION
• When starting in cold weather, the automatic transmission may shift up atslightly higher engine speeds than nor-mal until the automatic transmissionfluid reaches normal operating tem-perature.
• Do not race a cold engine immediatelyafter starting. Oil flow may not reachsome lubrication points fast enough toprevent engine damage.
• The engine should be idling when youmove the gear selector. Never acceler-ate until after you feel the transmissionengage. Accelerating immediately afterselecting a gear will cause harshengagement and premature transmis-sion wear.
• Selecting
P or N when idling at a
standstill for prolonged periods of timewill help prevent overheating of theautomatic transmission fluid.

All Wheel Drive (AWD)
Your Volvo can be equipped with permanent All Wheel Drive, which means that power isdistributed automatically between the frontand rear wheels.
Under normal driving conditions, most of the engine's power is directed to the frontwheels. However, if there is any tendency forthe front wheels to spin, an electronicallycontrolled coupling distributes power to thewheels that have the best traction.
NOTE
The message AWD disabled Service
required will be appear in the information
display if an electrical fault should occur in the AWD system. A warning light will alsoilluminate in the instrument panel. If thisoccurs, have the system checked by atrained and qualified Volvo service techni-cian.

Hill Descent Control (HDC) 12
–
introduction
HDC is a type of automatic engine brake and makes it possible to increase or decrease thevehicle's speed on downhill gradients usingonly the accelerator pedal, without applyingthe brakes. The brake system functions auto-matically to maintain a low and steady speed.
IntroductionNormally, when the accelerator pedal isreleased while driving down hills, the vehicle'sspeed slows as the engine runs at lower rpm(the normal engine braking effect). However, ifthe downhill gradient becomes steeper and ifthe vehicle is carrying a load, speed increasesdespite the engine braking effect. In this sit-uation, the brakes must be applied to reducethe vehicle's speed. HDC is particularly useful when driving down steep hills with rough surfaces, and where theroad may have slippery patches.
WARNING
HDC does not function in all situations, and is a supplementary braking aid. Thedriver has full responsibility for driving in asafe manner.
