Large animals
If there is a risk of colliding with a large animal, City Safety can help reduce your vehicle's speedby up to 15 km/h (9 mph). The braking function for large animals is primarily intended to mitigate the force of a collision athigher speeds. Braking is most effective atspeeds above 70 km/h (43 mph) and less effec-tive at lower speeds.

Function overview76
.
Audio-visual collision warning
Camera/radar sensor distance monitoring City Safety carries out three steps in the follow- ing order:
1. Collision warning
2. Brake assistance
3. Auto-brakeDescriptions of what happens in these three steps are provided below.
1 - Collision warning
The driver is first alerted to the risk of an immi- nent collision. City Safety can detect pedestrians, cyclists or vehicles that are stationary, are moving in thesame direction as your vehicle and are ahead ofyour vehicle. City Safety can also detect pedes-trians, cyclists or large animals that are crossingthe road in front of your vehicle. If there is a risk of a collision with a pedestrian, large animal, cyclist or another vehicle, or with avehicle described in the section "City Safety incrossing traffic", the driver will be alerted withlight, sound and pulsations in the brake pedal. Atlower speeds, during hard braking or if the accel-erator pedal is pressed, the brake pedal pulsationwarning will not be given. The intensity of thebrake pedal pulsations varies according to thevehicle's speed.
2 - Brake assistance
If the risk of a collision increases after the colli- sion warning, brake support will be activated. If the system determines that the pressure the driver is exerting on the brake pedal is insufficientto prevent the collision, brake support willincrease pressure.

ing speed cameras in the instrument panel.

.
If the vehicle exceeds a detected speed limit with theSpeed Warning function acti-vated, the driver is given aspeed warning when the vehi-cle is approaching a speedcamera if the navigation map
for the vehicle's current location contains infor-mation on speed cameras.
For more information on Speed Warnings in con- junction with speed cameras, see "Road SignInformation with Speed Warning and settings"and "Road Sign Information limitations".
NOTE
• For an audible alert to be provided if the speed is exceeded, the Speed Limit
Warning function must be activated and
the Road Sign Audio Warning sub-
function must be On. Audible alerts are
provided if the vehicle's speed exceeds the speed displayed by RSI in the instru-ment panel.
• Information about speed cameras on thenavigation map is not available for allmarkets/areas.

Park Assist*
The Park Assist function can help the driver
when maneuvering in tight spaces by indicating distances to obstacles using audible signals andgraphics in the center display.
Display view showing obstacle zones and sensor sec- tors.
The center display shows an overview of the vehi- cle in relation to objects that have been detected. The marked sector indicates where the obstacle is located. The closer the vehicle symbol is to amarked sector, the closer the detected obstacleis to your vehicle. The audible signals will also speed up the closer the obstacle is to the vehicle. The volume of theaudio system will be automatically lowered. Audible signals for obstacles in front and to the sides of the vehicle are active when the vehicle is moving but will cease after the vehicle has beenstationary for approx. 2 seconds. Audible signalsfor obstacles behind the vehicle will remain activeeven when the vehicle is stationary. If a detected obstacle is within 30 cm (1 ft) from the front or rear of the vehicle, the tone willbecome constant and the active sensor's fieldclosest to the vehicle symbol will be filled in. The volume of the Park Assist audible signals can be adjusted while the signal is being given using the
>II knob or in the center display's Top
view under
Settings.
NOTE
• Acoustic warnings are only given for objects directly in front of the vehicle'spath.
WARNING
•The Parking Assist function is supple- mentary driver support intended to facili-tate driving and help make it safer – itcannot handle all situations in all traffic,weather and road conditions.
• The parking sensors have dead/blindspots where objects cannot be detected.
• Pay particular attention to people andanimals near the vehicle.
• Parking Assist is not a substitute for thedriver's attention and judgment. The driveris always responsible for ensuring thevehicle is driven in a safe manner, at theappropriate speed, with an appropriatedistance to other vehicles, and in accord-ance with current traffic rules and regula-tions.

Battery drain The electrical functions in the vehicle drain the battery to varying degrees. Avoid using ignitionmode II when the engine is switched off. Use
ignition mode I instead, as this uses less electri-
cal current.
Note that certain accessories may also drain power from the electrical system. Do not usefunctions that use a lot of electrical current whenthe engine is turned off. Examples of such func-tions are:
• blower
• headlights
• windshield wipers
• audio system (especially at high volume).
If the starter battery voltage is low, a message isshown in the driver display. The vehicle's energy-saving function will then turn off or reduce certainfunctions, such as the blower and/or the audio system.
–Charge the battery by starting the engine and let it run for at least 15 minutes (drivingcharges the battery faster than letting theengine idle).

Jump starting using another battery
If the start battery is discharged, current from another battery can be used to start the vehicle.

CAUTION
The charging point of the vehicle is only intended for jump starting the vehicle in ques-tion. The charging point is not intended forjump-starting another vehicle. Using thecharging point to start another vehicle couldcause a fuse to blow, which would cause thecharging point to stop working.
If a fuse has blown, 12 V Battery Fuse failure
Service required will be displayed in the instru-
ment panel. Volvo recommends contacting an authorized Volvo workshop. To avoid short circuits or other damage, the fol-lowing steps are recommended when jump star-ting the battery:

The system's volume is normally adjusted using the volume control below the center display orthe right-side steering wheel keypad. Thisapplies, for example, when playing music or theradio or during phone calls and active traffic mes-sages.
Optimal sound reproductionThe audio system is precalibrated for optimalsound reproduction using digital signal process-ing. This calibration takes into account speakers,amplifiers, passenger compartment acoustics, lis-tener position, etc. for each combination of vehi-cle model and audio system. There is also adynamic calibration that takes into account thevolume control setting and the vehicle's speed.
Sound settings as needed
In Top view under SettingsSound, the fol-
lowing settings can be selected:
•
Tone — personal preference for bass, treble,
equalizer for example.
•
Balance - balance between right/left and
front/rear speakers.
•
