Front/rear park assist (option/accessory)
Front/rear park assist
The park assist system(s) are designed to assist you when driving into\
parking spaces, garages, etc. They
utilize ultrasound sensors located in the bumpers to measure the distanc\
e to a vehicle or other object, or
a person who may be close to the front or rear of the vehicle.
When is park assist active?
Front: the system is active from the time the engine is started until the vehi\
cle exceeds a speed of
approximately 10 mph (15 km/h). It is also active when the vehicle is \
backing up. Front park assist
reactivates automatically when the vehicle's speed goes under 10 mph (1\
5 km/h).
Rear: when the engine is running and reverse gear is selected.
NOTE:
"PARK ASSIST ACTIVE" will be displayed.
l If the vehicle is equipped with front and rear park assist, both systems\
will either be activated or
deactivated together. They cannot be used separately.
l The indicator light in the button (see the illustration on page 52) will light up to indicate that park
assist system(s) are activated.
When park assist is actively working:

l The audio system's volume will be reduced.
l An intermittent signal will be audible from the speakers to indicate tha\
t you are approaching a person,
object, parked vehicle, etc. The signals begin when the distance between\
the bumper and the object is:
Rear: approximately 5 feet (1.5 meters)
Front: approximately 2.5 ft (0.8 meters)
l At a distance of approximately 1 foot (30 cm), the signal will become \
constant. If objects are close to
both the front and rear bumpers, the signal will alternate between the f\
ront and rear speakers.
Deactivating the system(s)
- Press the Park assist button on the center console (see
page 55) to temporarily deactivate the system(s).
- The indicator light in the button will go out when the system(s) hav\
e been deactivated.
- If the vehicle is equipped with front and rear park assist, both syste\
ms will be deactivated by pressing
the button.
Park assist will be automatically reactivated the next time the engine i\
s started.
NOTE: It may be necessary to deactivate one or both of the park assist systems\
in certain cases.
l Rear park assist: towing a trailer, carrying bicycles in a rear-mounted carrier, etc, co\
uld trigger the
rear park assist system's sensors.
l Front park assist: it may not be possible to combine auxiliary headlights and front park \
assist since
these lights could trigger the system's sensors.

Faults in the system
If the yellow warning symbol illuminates and a message is shown in the \
information display, the
system is not functioning properly. Consult a Volvo retailer or authoriz\
ed service technician.
Cleaning the sensors
For the system to function properly, the sensors in the front and/or rea\
r bumpers should be kept clean.
They can be cleaned with car washing detergent and a sponge.
WARNING!
These systems are designed to be a supplementary aid when parking the ve\
hicle. They are not,
however, intended to replace the driver's attention and judgement.

wording of this message is determined by the degree of inflation pressur\
e loss.
NOTE: If a fault occurs in TPMS, the tire pressure warning light will flash f\
or approximately 1 minute
and TIRE PRESS SYST SERVICE REQUIRED will be displayed.
Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthl\
y when cold and inflated to the
inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicl\
e placard or tire inflation
pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the\
size indicated on the vehicle placard
or tire inflation pressure label, you should determine the proper tire i\
nflation pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire p\
ressure monitoring system
(TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more \
of your tires is significantly under-
inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, \
you should stop and check your
tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure. Driv\
ing on a significantly under-
inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. \
Under-inflation also reduces fuel
efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle's handling an\
d stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenanc\
e, and it is the driver's
responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even if under-inflatio\
n has not reached the level to trigger
illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to\
indicate when the system is
not operating properly. The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with \
the low tire pressure telltale.
When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for appro\
ximately one minute and then
remain continuously illuminated. This sequence will continue upon subseq\
uent vehicle start-ups as long
as the malfunction exists. When the malfunction indicator is illuminated\
, the system may not be able to
detect or signal low tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions may oc\
cur for a variety of reasons,
including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels o\
n the vehicle that prevent the
TPMS from functioning properly. Always check the TPMS malfunction tellta\
le after replacing one or
more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or a\
lternate tires and wheels allow
the TPMS to continue to function properly.
NOTE:
l TPMS indicates low tire pressure but does not replace normal tire mainte\
nance. For information on
correct tire pressure, please refer to the tables on
pages 160 and 161, or consult your Volvo retailer.
