High speeds may also result in the warn-ing light illuminating at a shorter distancethan the one that has been set due tolimitations in the radar sensor's range.
NOTE
The function uses the vehicle's radar unit,which has some general limitations – see thesection "Radar unit limitations".

Adaptive Cruise Control*
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC37) helps thedriver maintain a constant speed with a set timeinterval to the vehicle ahead.
Adaptive Cruise Control helps provide a morerelaxed driving experience on long trips on high-ways or long, straight roads with even trafficflows.
The camera/radar sensor measures the distance to thevehicle ahead38.
The driver sets a speed and a time interval to thevehicle ahead. If the camera/radar sensor detectsa slower-moving vehicle ahead, your vehicle'sspeed will be automatically adapted according tothe set time interval to that vehicle. When there
are no longer slower-moving vehicles ahead, thevehicle will return to the set speed.
WARNING
The Adaptive Cruise Control function issupplementary driver support intended tofacilitate driving and help make it safer –it cannot handle all situations in all traffic,weather and road conditions.
The driver is advised to read all sectionsin the Owner's Manual about this functionto learn of its limitations, which the drivermust be aware of before using the func-tion (see the link list at the end of thisarticle).
Adaptive Cruise Control is not a substi-tute for the driver's attention and judg-ment. The driver is always responsible forensuring the vehicle is driven in a safemanner, at the appropriate speed, with anappropriate distance to other vehicles,and in accordance with current trafficrules and regulations.
NOTE
Depending on market, this function may beeither Standard or Optional.

Adaptive Cruise Control regulates speed byaccelerating and braking. It is normal for thebrakes to emit a slight sound when they arebeing used to adjust speed.
Adaptive Cruise Control always attempts to regu-late speed smoothly. The driver must apply thebrakes in situations requiring immediate braking.For example, when there are great differences inspeed between vehicles or if the vehicle aheadbrakes suddenly. Due to limitations in the radarsensor, braking may occur unexpectedly or not atall.
Adaptive Cruise Control is designed to follow avehicle ahead in the same lane and maintain atime interval to that vehicle set by the driver. If theradar sensor does not detect a vehicle ahead, itwill instead maintain the speed set by the driver.This will also happen if the speed of the vehicleahead exceeds the set speed for your vehicle.
Adaptive Cruise Control can follow anothervehicle at speeds from a standstill up to200 km/h (125 mph).
WARNING
Adaptive Cruise Control is not a collisionavoidance system. The driver is alwaysresponsible and must intervene if the sys-tem fails to detect a vehicle ahead.
Adaptive Cruise Control does not brakefor people or animals and does not brakefor small vehicles, such as bikes andmotorcycles. Similarly, it does not brakefor low trailers, oncoming, slow-moving orstationary vehicles and objects.
Do not use Adaptive Cruise Control indemanding situations, such as in city traf-fic, at intersections, on slippery surfaces,with a lot of water or slush on the road, inheavy rain/snow, in poor visibility, onwinding roads, or on on/off ramps.
CAUTION
Maintenance of Adaptive Cruise Control com-ponents may only be performed by a work-shop – an authorized Volvo workshop is rec-ommended.

Camera/radar sensor distance monitoring
Adaptive Cruise Control utilizes approx. 40% ofthe vehicle's braking capacity. If a situationrequires more braking force than the AdaptiveCruise Control can provide, and if the driver doesnot apply the brakes, a warning light and audible
warning signal will be activated to alert the driverthat immediate action is required.
WARNING
Adaptive Cruise Control only issues a warningfor vehicles detected by its radar unit – thus, awarning may come after a delay or not at all.
Never wait for a warning. Apply thebrakes when necessary.

NOTE
The greater the vehicles' speed, thegreater the distance between them for aset time interval.
Only use the time intervals permitted bylocal traffic regulations.
If the Adaptive Cruise Control does notseem to respond with a speed increasewhen activated, it may be because thetime interval to the vehicle ahead isshorter than the set time interval.
WARNING
Only use a time interval suitable for thecurrent traffic conditions.
The driver should be aware that shorttime intervals give them limited time toreact and act to any unforeseen trafficsituation.
Setting how ACC should maintain
distance * to the vehicle ahead
A number of different settings can be made forhow Adaptive Cruise Control should maintain atime interval to the vehicle ahead. Settings aremade using the DRIVE MODE controls.
Select one of the following:
Eco - ACC will focus on providing optimalfuel economy, which will increase the timeinterval to the vehicle ahead.
Comfort - ACC will focus on following theset time interval to the vehicle ahead assmoothly as possible.
Dynamic - ACC will focus on following theset time interval to the vehicle ahead moreexactly, which could mean faster accelerationand heavier braking.

To temporarily deactivate Adaptive Cruise Controland put it in standby mode:
–Press the button on the steering wheel(2).
>The symbol in the instrument panelchanges color from WHITE to GRAY andthe set speed in the center of the speed-ometer will change from BEIGE to GRAY.
WARNING
If Adaptive Cruise Control is in standbymode, the driver must intervene and regu-late both speed and distance to the vehicleahead.
If the vehicle comes too close to a vehicleahead when Adaptive Cruise Control is instandby mode, the driver is instead warnedof the short distance by the Distance Alertfunction.
Standby mode due to action by the driver
Adaptive Cruise Control will be temporarily deac-tivated and put in standby mode if:
the brakes are applied
the gear selector is moved to N
the vehicle is driven faster than the setspeed for more than 1 minute
Temporarily increasing speed using the accelera-tor pedal, e.g. when passing another vehicle, willnot affect the setting. The vehicle will return tothe set speed when the accelerator pedal isreleased.
Automatic standby mode
Adaptive Cruise Control is dependent on othersystems, such as Electronic Stability Control
(ESC46). If any of these other systems stopsworking, Adaptive Cruise Control will automati-cally switch off.
WARNING
With automatic standby mode, the driver iswarned by an acoustic signal and a messageon the instrument panel.
The driver must then regulate vehiclespeed, apply the brakes if necessary, andmaintain a safe distance to other vehicles.
Adaptive Cruise Control may go into standbymode if:
your vehicle's speed goes below 5 km/h(3 mph) and ACC cannot determine if thevehicle ahead is stationary or if it is anotherobject, e.g. a speed bump.
your vehicle's speed goes under 5 km/h(3 mph) and the vehicle ahead turns so thatACC no longer has a vehicle to follow.
the driver opens the door.
the driver unbuckles the seat belt.
the engine speed (rpm) is too low/high.
one or more of the wheels lose traction.
the brake temperature is high.
the parking brake is applied.
the camera/radar sensor is covered by snowor heavy rain (the camera lens/radar wavesare blocked)

Passing assistance with AdaptiveCruise Control
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC47) can assist thedriver when passing other vehicles.
How passing assistance works
When ACC is following another vehicle and youindicate that you intend to pass that vehicle by
using the turn signal48, Adaptive Cruise Controlwill begin accelerating toward the vehicle aheadbefore your vehicle has moved into the passinglane.
The function will then delay a speed reduction toavoid early braking as your vehicle approaches aslower-moving vehicle.
The function remains active until your vehicle haspassed the other vehicle.
WARNING
Please note that this function can be acti-vated in more situations than just passinganother vehicle, such as when a direction indi-cator is used to indicate a lane change orbefore exiting to another road – the vehiclewill then briefly accelerate.

Starting passing assistance withAdaptive Cruise Control
Several conditions must be met for passingassistance to be possible.
Requirements for passing assistance
In order to activate passing assistance:
your vehicle must be following a vehicleahead (target vehicle)
your vehicle's current speed must beat least 70 km/h (43 mph)
the set speed for ACC must be highenough to safely pass another vehicle.
Starting parking assistance
To start passing assistance:
–Turn on the left turn signal.
>Passing assistance will start.

Limitations of passing assistancewith Adaptive Cruise Control
Passing assistance functionality may be reducedin certain situations.
WARNING
The driver should be aware that if conditionssuddenly change when using Parking Assis-tance, the function may implement an unde-sired acceleration in certain conditions.
Some situations should be avoided, e.g. if:
the vehicle is approaching an exit in thesame direction as passing would normallyoccur
the vehicle ahead slows before your vehi-cle has had time to switch to the passinglane
traffic in the passing lane slows down
a vehicle for right-hand traffic is driven ina country with left-hand traffic (or viceversa).
Situations of this type can be avoided by tempo-
rarily putting ACC49 in standby mode.

Switching target vehicles withAdaptive Cruise Control
At certain speeds, models with automatic trans-
missions and Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC50)can switch target vehicles.
Switching target vehicles
If the target vehicle ahead turns suddenly, there may bestationary traffic ahead.
When Adaptive Cruise Control is actively follow-ing another vehicle at speeds under 30 km/h(20 mph) and switches targets from a movingvehicle to a stationary vehicle, Adaptive CruiseControl will brake for the stationary vehicle.

WARNING
When Adaptive Cruise Control follows anothervehicle at speeds over approx. 30 km/h(20 mph) and changes target vehicle – from amoving vehicle to a stationary one – AdaptiveCruise Control will ignore the stationary vehi-cle and instead accelerate to the storedspeed.
The driver must then intervene and applythe brakes.
Automatic standby mode when switching
targets
Adaptive Cruise Control will be disabled and gointo standby mode:
if your vehicle's speed goes below 5 km/h(3 mph) and Adaptive Cruise Control cannotdetermine if the target object is a stationaryvehicle or another object, e.g. a speed bump.
if your vehicle's speed goes under 5 km/h(3 mph) and the vehicle ahead turns so thatAdaptive Cruise Control no longer has a vehi-cle to follow.

Automatic braking with AdaptiveCruise Control
The Adaptive cruise control (ACC51) has a spe-cial brake function in slow traffic and while sta-tionary.
Braking function in slow traffic and at a
standstill
In slow-moving, stop-and-go traffic or when stop-ped at a traffic light, driving will resume automati-cally if the vehicle is stopped for less thanapprox. 3 seconds. If it takes more than 3 sec-onds for the vehicle ahead to begin moving again,Adaptive Cruise Control will go into standbymode and the Auto-hold brake function will acti-vate.
–Adaptive Cruise Control can be reactivated inone of the following ways:
Pressing the button on the steeringwheel keypad.
Pressing the accelerator pedal.
>Adaptive Cruise Control will resume fol-lowing the vehicle ahead if it begins tomove within approx. 6 seconds.
NOTE
ACC can keep the vehicle stationary for nomore than 5 minutes – after that time theparking brake is applied and Adaptive CruiseControl is deactivated.
The parking brake must be released beforeAdaptive Cruise Control can be reactivated.
Deactivation of the Auto-hold brake function
In certain situations, Auto-hold will be deactivatedwhen the vehicle is at a standstill and AdaptiveCruise Control will go into standby mode. Thismeans that the brakes will be released and thevehicle could begin to roll. The driver mustactively apply the brakes to keep the vehicle sta-tionary.
This can occur if:
the driver depresses the brake pedal
the parking brake is applied
the gear selector is moved to the P, N or Rpositions
the driver puts Adaptive Cruise Control instandby mode.
Auto Activate Parking Brake
In certain situations, the parking brake will beapplied to keep the vehicle at a standstill.
