CAUTION
•Service and maintenance on City Safety may only be carried out by a trained andqualified Volvo service technician.
• If a crack, scratch or stone chip shouldoccur in the section of the windshield infront the camera/radar sensor, contact atrained and qualified Volvo service techni-cian to repair or replace the windshield.Failing to do so may result in reducedCity Safety functionality.
To help prevent limited or reduced functional- ity, please also observe the following:
• Volvo recommends that cracks, scratches or stone chips on the windshield in front of the camera/radar sensor should
not
be repaired; in such cases, the entire windshield should be replaced.
• Before the windshield is replaced, con-tact a Volvo retailer to ensure that thecorrect windshield is ordered and instal-led. If the wrong type of windshield isused, this may cause City Safety to func-tion improperly or not at all.
• Volvo recommends the use of only Genu-ine Volvo Replacement Windshields.
• When replacing windshield wipers, usethe same type or ones approved by Volvo.
After the windshield has been replaced, the camera/radar sensor will have to be recalibra-ted by a trained and qualified Volvo servicetechnician to help ensure proper function ofall of the vehicle's camera-/radar-based sys-tems.
MaintenanceIn order for City Safety to function properly, the area of the windshield must be kept free of dirt,ice, snow, etc.
Other vehicle functionsIf a message is displayed in the instrument panel,this means that the other systems using the cam-era/radar sensor (see the list below) will not havefull functionality or may not function at all. The radar sensor is used by the following func- tions:
• Distance Alert
*
• Driver Alert Control
*
• Adaptive Cruise Control
*
• Pilot Assist
*
• Road Sign Information
*
• Active High Beams
*
• Lane Keeping Aid
*
Do not mount or in any way attach anything onthe windshield that could obstruct the camera/radar sensor.
WARNING
• The camera has the same type of limita- tions as the human eye, i.e., it cannot seeas well in heavy snowfall or rain, thick fogor in heavy blowing dust or snow. In suchconditions, systems depending on thecamera may experience greatly reducedfunctionality or may be temporarily deacti-vated.
• Never place any objects, decals, etc., onthe windshield in front of the camera. Thiscould reduce or block the camera

Starting SL (putting it in standby mode)
Function buttons and symbols
–Press ◀ (1) or ▶ (3) to scroll to the Speed
Limiter (
) function.
> The symbol (4) will be displayed in the instrument panel. This indicates that SL has been started and is in standby
mode .

ASL symbolA road sign symbol (next to the stored speed in the center of the speedome-ter) can be displayed in three differentcolors as explained in the following
table:
Road sign sym-
bol's colorExplanation
Green/yellowASL is active
GrayASL is in standby mode
Amber/orangeASL is temporarily in standby mode (e.g., becausea speed limit sign could notbe read)
LimitationsAdjusting a set speed is done first when the vehi- cle passes a speed limit sign. If a speed limit signcannot be read (e.g., because it is twisted, dam-aged, faded, dirty, covered by snow, etc.) ASL willgo into standby mode because the system willnot have "seen" the speed posted on the sign(SL will activate). The driver will have to react andadapt the vehicle's speed. ASL will reactivatewhen the vehicle passes a speed limit sign thatthe system can read.

Changing tolerance for the Automatic Speed Limiter
Posted speed limit toleranceASL can be set to allow the vehicle to drive a maximum of 5 mph (10 km/h) above or belowthe posted speed limit. For example, if the currentposted speed limit is 50 mph (70 km/h), thedriver can opt to allow the vehicle to drive at aspeed of 55 mph (80 km/h).

–Press the button (1) briefly to change
50 mph (70 km/h) to 55 mph (75 km/h) in the center of the speedometer (6).
> The vehicle will then use the selected tol- erance if the speed limit sign detected is 50 mph (70 km/h). This will continue untilthe vehicle passes a sign with a lower orhigher speed limit. The vehicle will thenadjust to the new maximum speed andthe set tolerance will be deleted from thesystem's memory. The set tolerance can be adjusted in the same way as the set Speed Limiter's setmaximum speed. If the Road Sign Information system * is
activated, the posted speed limit will be indicated by a RED marker (4) on thespeedometer's speed scale.

limitations
RSI is a feature that helps the driver see road signs showing the posted speed limit.
RSI may have difficulty reading signs that are:
• Faded
• Located in a curve
• Twisted or damaged
• Positioned high above the road
• Obstructed (by bushes, etc.)
• Partially covered by snow, ice, etc.
The camera used by RSI (and other driver sup- port systems such as Adaptive Cruise Control *)
has certain limitations. See the article "City Safety limitations" for additional information.
NOTE
RSI may perceive certain types of bicycle holders (with wiring attached to the trailerelectrical socket) as a trailer, which may resultin faulty speed limit information to the driver.

Park Assist *
The Park Assist system is designed to assist you
when driving into parking spaces, garages, etc. An audible signal and symbols in the instrumentpanel and center display indicate the distance tothe object.
Display view showing object zones and sensor sectors
The center display shows an overview of the vehi- cle in relation to objects that have been detected. The highlighted sector shows which of the sen- sors has detected the object. The closer the vehi-cle symbol is to the highlighted sector, the closerthe actual object is to your vehicle. The Park Assist system uses an intermittent tone that pulses faster as you come closer to anobject. Sound from the infotainment system willbe temporarily turned down. The tone becomes constant when you are withinapproximately 1 ft (30 cm) of an object and theactive sensor fields will be completely filled in. Ifthere are objects within this distance both behindand in front of the vehicle, the tone alternatesbetween front and rear speakers. While an audible signal is being given, its volume level can be raised/lowered using the
>II control
in the center console.
WARNING
Park Assist is an information system, NOT a safety system. This system is designed to bea supplementary aid when parking the vehicle.It is not, however, intended to replace the driv-er's attention and judgement.
Rear park assist
The system's rear sensors are activated automat- ically when the engine is started and are active ifthe vehicle rolls rearward with the gear selector in N or if R has been selected.
The distance monitored behind the vehicle is approximately 5 ft (1.5 m). The audible signalcomes from the rear speakers. The rear sensors will be deactivated automatically when towing a trailer if Volvo genuine trailer wir-ing is used. If a non-Volvo trailer hitch is beingused, it may be necessary to switch off the sys-tem manually.
Side park assist
The system's side sensors are activated automat- ically when the engine is started and are active atspeeds below approximately 6 mph (10 km/h).
