rain or snow, in poor visibility, on winding roads or on highway on- or off-ramps.
• Pilot Assist uses the vehicle's cameraand radar sensor, which have limitations.
Pilot Assist may deactivate or not function optimally if:
• the lane's side market lines are missing, badly faded or cross each other.
• the division of lanes is not clear, e.g.,when a line divides or merges withanother, at exits or if there are many roadsigns/markers.
• if there are edges or other lines on ornear the lane, e.g., curbs, cracks, repairedareas, sharp shadows, etc.
• the lane is narrow or winding.
• the weather conditions (rain, snow, fog,slush, poor visibility, backlighting, etc).
The driver should also be aware that Pilot Assist has the following limitations: • High curbs, barriers and temporary obsta- cles (cones, barriers etc) may not bedetected or could be detected incorrectlyas side marker lines, which may create arisk of collision. The driver must ensure asafe distance to these obstacles.
• The camera or radar sensor may not beable to detect objects if there are pot-holes or if there are stationary objectspartially or completely blocking the road.• Pilot Assist does not "see" pedestrians, animals, etc.
• Pilot Assist's steering capacity is limitedand may not always be able to help thedriver keep the vehicle in the lane.
Hands on the steering wheelPilot Assist only functions when the driver's hands are on the steering wheel
, which is con-
tinuously monitored by the system. If this is notthe case, the driver will be alerted by a text mes-sage in the instrument panel. If the driver's handsare not returned to the steering wheel, an audiblesignal will sound. If the driver does not return his/her hands to the steering wheel after the audible signal, PilotAssist will go into standby mode and must be reactivated by pressing

Standby mode due to driver actionIf a turn signal is used or if the accelerator pedal is pressed, Pilot Assist will temporarily go intostandby mode. When the turn signal is switchedoff or the accelerator pedal is released, PilotAssist will reactivate automatically. Automatic reactivation from standby mode can be done within 1 minute. After 1 minute haselapsed, Pilot Assist must be reactivated man- ually by pressing the
button.
Pilot Assist will temporarily go into standby mode if: • the brakes are applied
• the gear selector is moved to the
N position.
The driver will then have to regulate speed and distance to the vehicle ahead, or reactivate Pilot Assist manually by pressing the
button on
the left-side steering wheel keypad.
Automatic standby modePilot Assist interacts with other systems, such as Electronic Stability Control. If any of these othersystems are not functioning properly, Pilot Assistwill automatically be deactivated.
WARNING
If this happens, the driver will be alerted by an audible signal and a message in the instru-ment panel. The driver will have to adapt thevehicle's speed, apply the brakes when nec-essary and keep a safe distance to the vehicleahead.
Pilot Assist switches automatically to standby mode if: • the camera cannot detect the traffic lane's side marker lines
• the vehicle ahead is not within a reasonable(detectable) distance
• the driver's hands are not on the steeringwheel
• the driver unbuckles the seat belt
• engine speed (rpm) is too high/low
• the wheels lose traction
• brake temperature is too high
• the stability system's
ESC Sport Mode is
activated
• drive mode
Off Road is selected
• The camera/radar sensor is covered by e.g., wet snow or if heavy rain interferes with radarwaves
Reactivating Pilot Assist from standby mode
–Press the button (1).
> The most recently set speed will be used.

Other Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) functionsACC is an optional system designed to assist
the driver by maintaining a set speed or a set time interval to the vehicle ahead.
ACC has several supplementary functions:
• Changing target vehicles
• Automatic standby mode when changing tar- gets
• Auto-hold brake function
• Deactivation of the auto-hold brake function
• Automatically setting the parking brake
Changing target vehicles
If the target vehicle turns suddenly, there may be a sta- tionary vehicle ahead
When ACC is actively following another vehicle at speeds
under 20 mph (30 km/h) and changes
targets from a moving vehicle to a stationary one, the system will brake for the stationary vehicle.
WARNING
If ACC changes targets from a moving vehicle to a stationary one at speeds above 20 mph
(30 km/h), the system will not react to the
stationary vehicle and will accelerate to the previously set speed. The driver must actively apply the brakes to slow/stop the vehicle.
Automatic standby mode when changing targets
ACC disengages and goes into standby mode if:
• your vehicle's speed goes below approx. 3 mph (5 km/h) and ACC cannot determine ifthe target object is a stationary vehicle orsome other type of object such as a speedbump, etc
• the vehicle's speed goes below approx.3 mph (5 km/h) and the vehicle aheadchanges lanes or turns so that ACC nolonger has a target vehicle to follow
Auto-hold brake functionIn slow-moving, stop-and-go traffic or when stop- ped at a traffic light, driving will resume automati-cally if the vehicle is not stopped for more thanapprox. 3 seconds. If it takes more than3 seconds for the vehicle ahead to begin movingagain, ACC will go into standby mode and theauto-hold brake function will activate.
–The driver will then have to reactivate ACC in one of the following ways:
• Press the
button on the left-side
steering wheel keypad
• Press the accelerator pedal
> ACC will resume following the vehicle ahead (target vehicle) if it begins to move
within approx. 6 seconds.
NOTE
ACC can keep the vehicle at a standstill for up to 5 minutes, after which the parking brakewill be set and ACC will go into standbymode. The parking brake has to be released before ACC can be reactivated.

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) - fault tracing
ACC is an optional system designed to assist the driver by maintaining a set speed or a settime interval to the vehicle ahead.
If this symbol is displayed in the instru- ment panel and the message
Windscreen sensor Sensor
blocked, see Owner's manual
appears, the ACC radar sensor is blocked and cannot detect vehicles ahead.
This message also indicates that the following systems may have reduced functionality:
• Distance Alert
• City Safety
• Driver Alert Control
• Pilot Assist
• Lane Departure Warning (LDW)
• Lane Keeping Aid (LKA)
• Traffic Sign Information (TSI) The following table lists possible causes for thismessage being displayed and suitable actions:
CauseAction
The windshield in front of the radar is dirty or covered with snow/ice.Clean/clear the windshield in front of the radar.
Heavy rain or snow is interfering with the radar signals.No action possible. Heavy precipitation may affect the function of the radar.
Swirling water or snow from the surface of the road may interfere with the radar signals.No action possible. A very wet or snow-covered road surface may affect the function of the radar.
The windshield in front of the radar is clean but the message remains in the display.Wait a short time. It may take several minutes for the radar to detect that it is no longer obstructed.
A text message can be erased by briefly pressing the
O button on the right-side steering wheel
keypad. If the message recurs, contact a trained and authorized Volvo service technician orretailer.

HeatIf the temperature in the passenger compartment is very high, the camera and radar sensor may betemporarily turned off for approx. 15 minutesafter the engine has been started to protect theirelectronic components. When the temperaturehas cooled sufficiently, the camera and radarsensor will restart automatically. The visual warning signal may also be temporarily disabled due to high passenger compartmenttemperatures caused by strong sunlight. Warnings may not be given if the distance to the vehicle ahead is short and the driver is activelyoperating the vehicle (clearly depressing a pedalor turning the steering wheel).
Reduced visibilityCity Safety's functions may be greatly impeded or deactivated by e.g., intense snowfall or rain, indense fog, in very dusty conditions or if there isblowing snow in front of the vehicle. Condensa-tion, ice, snow or dirt on the windshield may alsoreduce the system's functionality.
NOTE
•Keep the windshield in front of the radar sensor free of ice, snow, dirt, etc.
• Snow or ice on the hood deeper than2 inches (5 cm) may obstruct the sensor.Keep the hood free of ice and snow.
• Do not mount or in any way attach any-thing on the windshield that couldobstruct the radar sensor.
Camera and radar sensor's field of visionThe camera and radar sensor have limited fields of vision. In some situations they may detect avehicle, pedestrian or cyclist later than expectedor not detect them at all. Other vehicles that are dirty may be detected later than others and in dark conditions, motorcy-cles may be detected late or not at all. If a text message is displayed in the instrument panel indicates that the camera or radar sensorare blocked, it may be difficult for City Safety todetect a vehicle, pedestrian or cyclist and thesystem's functionality may be reduced. Camera and radar sensor components should only be serviced or replaced by a trained andqualified Volvo service technician.
Other limitations
WARNING
• Warnings and braking may be delayed or not occur at all if traffic, weather or otherconditions prevent the camera and/orradar sensor from detecting pedestrians,cyclists or other vehicles correctly.
• Other vehicles can only be detected indarkness if their headlights and taillightsare clearly visible.
• The sensors have a limited range forpedestrians and cyclists. The systemfunctions best at speeds up to 30 mph(50 km/h). For stationary or slow-movingvehicles, the system functions best atspeeds up to approx. 43 mph (70 km/h).
• Warnings for stationary or slow-movingvehicles may be impeded by darkness orpoor visibility.
• Warnings and braking for pedestrians andcyclists will not be provided at speedsabove approx. 50 mph (80 km/h).
• Do not place, attach or mount any objectson the inside or outside of the windshieldnear or over the sensor. This could affectthe camera-based functions.

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).
Function buttons and symbols
–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.

Park Assist Camera (PAC) * guiding
lines and fields
The Park Assist Camera system uses guiding and lines and fields to indicate the vehicle'sposition in relation to its immediate surround-ings.
Guiding lines
Sample guidelines
The lines on the screen are projected as if they were a path on the ground around the vehicleand are directly affected by the way in which thesteering wheel is turned. This enables the driverto see path the vehicle will take, even if he/sheturns the steering wheel. These lines also indicate the outermost limits that any object (door mirrors, corners of the body, atrailer hitch, etc.) extends out from the vehicle,even when it turns.
NOTE
When backing up with a trailer, the guiding lines show the path that the vehicle will take,
not the trailer.
WARNING
Keep in mind that when the rear camera has been selected, the image on the screen onlyshows the area behind the vehicle. The drivermust always watch for people, animals, othervehicles, etc., near the sides or the front of thevehicle when turning while backing up. The opposite is true when the front camera is selected. Please note that the guiding lines show the shortest path. Be sure that the vehicle

•
With
360° view selected, objects/obstacles
may not be detected at the edges of the indi- vidual cameras' fields of vision.
• A crossed-out camera icon means that thecamera is not functioning properly.
Ambient lightingThe camera images are adjusted automatically to the ambient light, which means the image mayvary slightly in terms of light and quality. Poorambient lighting may reduce the quality of theimage.
Maintenance
• Keep the camera's lens free of dirt, ice and snow. This is particularly important in poorambient lighting conditions.
• Remove dirt, ice and snow carefully to avoidscratching the lenses.
• Clean the lens regularly with warm water anda suitable car washing detergent.

Park Assist Pilot (PAP) *
Park Assist Pilot (PAP) helps the driver drive into and leave parking spaces.
Park Assist Pilot (PAP) provides assistance when parking by measuring the parking space andturning the steering wheel to guide the vehicleinto the space. Information about the actions required by the driver is provided in the center display in the formof symbols, images and text.
NOTE
The driver's task is to follow the instructions, select a gear ( D or R), regulate the vehicle's
speed, apply the brakes when necessary and stop.
Types of parking
Parallel parking
Procedure for parallel parking
PAP helps park the vehicle as follows:
1. The system searches for and measures a possible parking space. While this is being done, the vehicle's speed may not exceedapprox. 20 mph ( 30 km/h). When backinginto a space, the speed may not exceedapprox. 12 mph ( 20 km/h).
2. The vehicle is steered while it is backing into the parking space.
3. The vehicle's position is adjusted in the park- ing space by moving forward and rearward.
