Active high beam
Active high beams is a function that uses cam- era sensors in the upper edge of the windshieldto detect the headlights of approaching vehiclesor the taillights of the vehicle directly ahead.When either of these is detected, the vehicle'sheadlights will automatically switch from highbeams to low beams.
Active high beam is enabled by moving the lighting ring on the steering wheel lever to
.
The function can also detect street lighting. When the camera sensor no longer detects anapproaching vehicle or a vehicle ahead, the head-lights will return to high beams. This function can be used in dark conditionswhen the vehicle's speed is approx. 20 km/h(approx. 12 mph) or higher. If active high beams are deactivated when the high beams are on, the headlights will automati-cally switch to low beams. When active high beams are activated, a white
symbol will be displayed in the instrument
panel. When high beams are on, the symbol will be blue. For LED headlights, this applies even if the highbeams are partially dimmed, i.e. if the headlightsare illuminated with slightly more than low beams.
Vehicles with halogen headlights
When the camera sensor no longer detects the headlights of approaching vehicles or the tail-lights of a vehicle ahead, the headlights willreturn to high beams after a second or so.
Vehicles with LED3 headlights *
If the active high beams are equipped with the auto on/off function 4
, the headlights will return to
high beams a second or so after the camera sen- sor no longer detects the headlights of approach-ing vehicles or the taillights of a vehicle ahead.
Limitations for active high beams
The camera sensor on which the function is based has limitations. If this symbol and the message
Active
High Beam Temporarily
unavailable is displayed in the instru-
ment panel, switching between high
and low beams must be done manually. The light- ing ring on the steering wheel lever can remain in the
position. The symbol will go out
when the message is displayed.
The same applies if this symbol along with the message Windscreen
sensor Sensor blocked, see
Owner's manual is displayed.
Active high beams may be temporarily unavailable in certain situations, e.g. heavy fog or rain. Whenactive high beams become available again, or thewindshield sensors are no longer blocked, the message will disappear and the
symbol will
be displayed.
WARNING
Automatic high beam is an aid in using the best possible light based on prevailing condi-tions. The driver is always responsible for manually switching between high and low beam whentraffic situations or weather conditions requirethis.

DRIVER SUPPORT

WARNING
•The Pilot Assist function is supplementary driver support intended to facilitate driv-ing and help make it safer – it cannothandle all situations in all traffic, weatherand 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).
• Pilot Assist should only be used if thereare clear lane lines painted on each sideof the lane. All other use will increase therisk of contact with nearby obstacles thatcannot be detected by the functions.
• Pilot Assist is not a substitute for the driv-er's attention and judgment. The driver isalways responsible for ensuring the vehi-cle is driven in a safe manner, at theproper position within the lane, at theappropriate speed, with an appropriatedistance to other vehicles, and in accord-ance with current traffic rules and regula-tions.
NOTE
Depending on market, this function may be either Standard or Optional.
Pilot Assist regulates speed by accelerating and braking. It is normal for the brakes to emit a slightsound when they are being used to adjust speed. Pilot Assist attempts to smoothly regulate speed. The driver must apply the brakes in situationsrequiring immediate braking. For example, whenthere are great differences in speed betweenvehicles or if the vehicle ahead brakes suddenly.Due to limitations in the camera and radar sen-sor, braking may occur unexpectedly or not at all. Pilot Assist is designed to follow a vehicle ahead in the same lane and maintain a time interval tothat vehicle set by the driver. If the radar sensordoes not detect a vehicle ahead, it will insteadmaintain the speed set by the driver. This will alsohappen if the speed of the vehicle aheadexceeds the set speed for your vehicle.
• Pilot Assist can follow another vehicle atspeeds from a standstill up to 200 km/h(125 mph).
• Pilot Assist can provide steering assistancefrom near-stationary speeds up to 140 km/h(87 mph).
WARNING
• Pilot Assist is not a collision avoidance system. The driver must intervene if thesystem fails to detect a vehicle ahead.
• Pilot Assist does not brake for people,animals, objects, small vehicles (e.g.cycles and motorcycles), low trailers aswell as oncoming, slow or stationary vehi-cles.
• Do not use Pilot Assist in demanding sit-uations, such as in city traffic, at intersec-tions, on slippery surfaces, with a lot ofwater or slush on the road, in heavy rain/snow, in poor visibility, on winding roads,on highway on- or off-ramps, or with atrailer connected to the vehicle.
CAUTION
Maintenance of the integrated components in Pilot Assist may only be performed by a work-shop – an authorized Volvo workshop is rec-ommended.
In curves and forks in the roadPilot Assist is designed to interact with the driver. The driver should never wait for steering assis-tance from Pilot Assist, but instead should alwaysbe ready to increase his or her own steeringefforts, particularly in curves.

3 - Auto-brake
The automatic braking function is activated at the last moment. If the driver has not taken evasive action by this stage and a collision is imminent, the automaticbraking function will be triggered. This occurswhether or not the driver is pressing the brakepedal. Full braking force will be applied to reducethe speed at impact or reduced braking effect willbe applied if this is sufficient to avoid the colli-sion. The seat belt tensioners may be activated along with the automatic braking function. See "Seatbelt tensioners" for more information. In certain situations, auto-braking may begin with a limited braking force before applying full brak- ing force. If City Safety has prevented a collision, the vehi- cle will be kept at a standstill until the drivertakes action. If the vehicle has slowed to avoidcolliding with a slower-moving vehicle ahead, yourspeed will be reduced to that vehicle's speed. Auto-braking can always be cancelled if the driver presses hard on the accelerator pedal.
NOTE
When City Safety activates the brakes, the brake lights come on.
When City Safety applies the brakes, a text mes- sage will appear in the instrument panel to notifythe driver that the function is/was activated.
WARNING
City Safety may not be used to change how the driver operates the vehicle. The drivermust not only rely on City Safety to brake thevehicle.

Setting a warning distance for CitySafety
City Safety is always active, but the function's warning distance can be adjusted.
NOTE
The City Safety function cannot be deacti- vated. It is activated automatically each timethe engine/electric motor is started.
The alert distance determines the sensitivity of the system and regulates the distance at whichthe light, sound and brake pulsations will be acti-vated. To select warning distance:
1. Select
SettingsMy CarIntelliSafe in
the center display's Top view.
2. Under
City Safety Warning, tap Late,Normal or Early to set the desired warning
distance.
If the driver feels that the
Early setting is giving
too many warnings or finds them irritating, the
Normal or Late warning distance settings can
be selected instead. If the driver feels that the warnings are too fre- quent and distracting, the warning distance canbe reduced. This will reduce the total number ofwarnings, but it will also result in City Safety pro-viding warnings at a later stage.

DRIVER SUPPORT
}}
337
The
Late warning distance setting should there-
fore only be used in exceptional cases, such as when a more dynamic driving style is preferred.
WARNING
• No automatic system can guarantee 100% correct function in all situations.You should therefore never test use ofCity Safety in the direction of people, ani-mals or vehicles – this could lead tosevere damage, serious personal injury oreven death.
• City Safety warns the driver if there is arisk of collision, but the function cannotreduce the driver's reaction time.
• Even if the warning distance has been set to
Early, warnings may be perceived as
late in certain situations – e.g. when there are large speed differences or if the vehi-cle ahead suddenly brakes heavily.
• With the warning distance set to
Early,
warnings come further in advance. This may cause the warnings to come morefrequently than with warning distance
Normal, but is recommended since it can
make City Safety more effective.
NOTE
The warning with direction indicators for Rear Collision Warning is deactivated if the colli-sion warning distance in the City Safety func- tion is set to the lowest level "
Late".
The seat belt tensioning and braking func- tions remain active.

Detecting obstacles with City Safety City Safety can detect vehicles, cyclists, large animals and pedestrians.
VehiclesCity Safety detects most types of vehicles that are either stationary, moving in the same direc-tion as your vehicle or those described in "CitySafety in crossing traffic". For City Safety to be able to detect a vehicle in the dark, its headlights and taillights must be onand clearly visible.
Cyclists
Optimal examples of what City Safety would interpret to be a cyclist: clear body and bicycle shapes.
For optimal performance, the system's function for cyclist detection needs the clearest possibleinformation about the contours of the bicycle andof the cyclist's head, arm, shoulders, legs, torso
