Active chassis* (Four C)
Active chassis, Four-C (Continuously Controlled Chassis Concept), regulates thecharacteristics of the shock absorbers so thatthe vehicle's driving characteristics can beadjusted. There are three settings: Comfort,Sport and Advanced.
Operation
Chassis settings
Use the buttons in the center console to change setting. The setting in use when theengine is switched off is activated the nexttime the engine is started.
NOTE
This system is available on Canadian mod- els only.
ComfortComfort mode offers a somewhat softer ride and the transmission shifts gears at lowerrpm. This mode is particularly suitable forlong-distance highway driving. The indicatorlight in the button will be on when this modeis selected.
SportIn this mode, the vehicle's body sway is reduced during cornering and steeringresponse is more immediate. The transmis-sion shifts up at higher rpm for sportier driv-ing. The indicator light in the button will be onto indicate that Sport mode has beenselected.
AdvancedIn this mode, body sway in curves is minimal and steering response is very direct. Gearshifting is done at high rpm in each gear fordynamic and active driving.

Stability system – introduction
The Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system consists of a number of functions designed tohelp reduce wheel spin, counteract skiddingand to generally help improve directional sta-bility.
A pulsating sound will be audiblewhen the system is actively operat-ing and is normal. Acceleration willalso be slightly slower than normal.
WARNING
ESC is a supplementary aid and cannot deal with all situations or road conditions. The driver is always responsible for oper- ating the vehicle in a safe manner inaccordance with current traffic regulations.
ESC consists of the following functions:
• Traction control
• Spin control
• Active Yaw Control
• Engine Drag Control
• Corner Traction Control
• Trailer Stability Assist

Toggling between ACC and CC (standard Cruise Control)
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) helps the driver maintain a safe distance/time interval tothe vehicle ahead.
Switching from ACC to CCThis may be useful if, for example, the radarsensor is obstructed in some way. SeeAdaptive Cruise Control – limitations (p. 193)for additional information.
• Press and hold the
button; the symbol
in the instrument panel will switch from
to .
> This activates the standard cruise control function (see Cruise control (CC) – intro- duction (p. 181)).
WARNING
Switching from ACC to CC means that:
• Your vehicle will
no longer automati-
cally maintain a set distance to a vehi- cle ahead.
• Only the set speed will be maintainedand the driver will have to apply thebrakes when needed.
Switching from CC to ACC
Switch off cruise control by pressing once
or twice as needed according to the instruc- tions in the previous section "Turning ACC off completely." The next time the system isswitched on, ACC will be reactivated.

Cruise control (CC) – deactivating
Cruise control is designed to assist the driver by maintaining a set speed. It is primarilyintended for use on long straight roads insteady traffic, such as on highways and othermain roads.
Automatic deactivationThe cruise control is automatically deacti-vated
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 positionN
.
• During wheel spin or wheel lock-up.
• If the vehicle's speed is increased byusing the accelerator pedal for more than1 minute.
• Engine speed (rpm) is too high or too low.
The currently set speed will be saved in the system's memory.
Temporary deactivationThe driver can temporarily deactivate thecruise control by pressing 0. The saved
speed is shown in brackets in the informationdisplay.

Adaptive Cruise Control – introduction
ACC is an optional system designed to assist the driver by maintaining a set speed or a settime interval to the vehicle ahead. It is primar-ily intended for use on long straight roads insteady traffic, such as on highways and othermain roads. When the driver has set the desired speed and the time interval to the vehicle ahead,ACC functions as follows:
• If there are no other vehicles in the lane ahead of you, your vehicle will travel atthe set speed.
• If ACC's radar sensor detects a slowermoving vehicle in the lane ahead, the sys-tem will adapt your vehicle's speed tohelp maintain the set time interval to thevehicle ahead. When there are no longerslower moving vehicles ahead, your vehi-cle will accelerate to resume the setspeed.
If ACC is switched off completely or in standby mode and your vehicle comes tooclose to another vehicle ahead, the driver willbe warned by the Distance Alert system (seeDistance Alert – introduction (p. 198)).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.

Adaptive Cruise Control consists of: • A cruise control system to maintain a set speed
• A system to maintain a set distance to thevehicle ahead, which is expressed as atime interval. For example, you canchoose to remain approximately 2 sec-onds behind the vehicle ahead. Theactual distance required to maintain a2-second interval will vary according thespeed of the vehicles.
