Driver distraction
A driver has a responsibility to do everythingpossible to ensure his or her own safety and thesafety of passengers in the vehicle and otherssharing the roadway. Part of this responsibility isavoiding distractions, including performing activi-ties that are not directly related to controlling thevehicle in the driving environment.
Your new Volvo is, or can be, equipped with fea-ture-rich entertainment and communication sys-tems. These include hands-free cellular tele-phones, navigation systems, and multipurposeaudio systems. You may also own other portableelectronic devices for your own convenience.When used properly and safely, they enrich thedriving experience. Improperly used, any of thesecould cause a distraction.
For all of these systems, we want to provide thefollowing warning that reflects the strong Volvoconcern for your safety. Never use these devicesor any feature of your vehicle in a way that dis-tracts you from the task of driving safely. Distrac-tion can lead to a serious accident. In addition tothis general warning, we offer the following guid-ance regarding specific new features that may befound in your vehicle:

WARNING
•Never use a hand-held cellular telephonewhile driving. Some jurisdictions prohibitcellular telephone use by a driver whilethe vehicle is moving.
•If your vehicle is equipped with a naviga-tion system, set and make changes toyour travel itinerary only with the vehicleparked.

resistance
Speed-dependent power steering increases the
steering wheel resistance in pace with the vehi-
cle's speed to give the driver an enhanced feel-
ing of control and stability.
Steering may feel stiffer on highways. When
parking and at low speeds, it will be easier to
move the steering wheel.
NOTE In some situations, the power steering may
become too hot and require temporary cool-
ing – during such time the power steering will
work at reduced output and the steering
wheel may feel more difficult to move.
In parallel with the temporarily reduced steer-
ing assistance, the driver display shows a
message as well as a STEERING WHEEL
symbol.

DRIVER SUPPORT

see the description of the INDIVIDUAL option
under "Available drive modes" in the "Drive
modes" section.
On models not equipped with drive mode con-
trols and the INDIVIDUAL option, steering wheel

Control
The Roll Stability Control (RSC 1
) system helps
minimize the risk of a rollover in the event of e.g.
a sudden evasive maneuver or if the vehicle
begins to skid.
The RSC system monitors the lateral angle at
which the vehicle is leaning and registers any
changes. Using this information, the system cal-
culates the likelihood of a rollover. If there is an
imminent risk of a rollover, Electronic Stability
Control is activated, engine torque is reduced and
brakes are applied to one or more of the wheels
until the vehicle has regained stability.

Adaptive Cruise Control* (p. 295) Passing assistance with Adaptive
Cruise Control
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC
51
) can assist the
driver when passing other vehicles.
How passing assistance worksWhen ACC is following another vehicle and you
indicate that you intend to pass that vehicle by
using the turn signal 52
, Adaptive Cruise Control
will begin accelerating toward the vehicle ahead
before your vehicle has moved into the passing
lane.
The function will then delay a speed reduction to
avoid early braking as your vehicle approaches a
slower-moving vehicle.
The function remains active until your vehicle has
passed the other vehicle.
WARNING Please note that this function can be acti-
vated in more situations than just passing
another vehicle, such as when a direction indi-
cator is used to indicate a lane change or
before exiting to another road – the vehicle
will then briefly accelerate.

Adaptive Cruise Control* (p. 295) Starting passing assistance with
Adaptive Cruise Control
Requirements for passing assistanceIn order to activate passing assistance:
• your vehicle must be following a vehicle
ahead (target vehicle)
• your vehicle's current speed must be
at least 70 km/h (43 mph)
• the set speed for ACC must be high
enough to safely pass another vehicle.

Limitations of passing assistance
with Adaptive Cruise Control
Passing assistance functionality may be reduced
in certain situations.
WARNING The driver should be aware that if conditions
suddenly change when using Parking Assis-
tance, the function may implement an unde-
sired acceleration in certain conditions.
Some situations should be avoided, e.g. if:
•
the vehicle is approaching an exit in the
same direction as passing would normally
occur
• the vehicle ahead slows before your vehi-
cle has had time to switch to the passing
lane
• traffic in the passing lane slows down
• a vehicle for right-hand traffic is driven in
a country with left-hand traffic (or vice
versa).
Situations of this type can be avoided by tempo-
rarily putting ACC 53
in standby mode.
Related information
• Adaptive Cruise Control* (p. 295) Switching target vehicles with
Adaptive Cruise Control
At certain speeds, models with automatic trans-
missions and Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC 54
)
can switch target vehicles.
Switching target vehicles If the target vehicle ahead turns suddenly, there may be
stationary traffic ahead.
When Adaptive Cruise Control is actively follow-
ing another vehicle at speeds under 30 km/h
(20 mph) and switches targets from a moving
vehicle to a stationary vehicle, Adaptive Cruise
Control will brake for the stationary vehicle.
WARNING When Adaptive Cruise Control follows another
vehicle at speeds over approx. 30 km/h
(20 mph) and changes target vehicle – from a
moving vehicle to a stationary one – Adaptive
Cruise Control will ignore the stationary vehi-
cle and instead accelerate to the stored
speed.
•
The driver must then intervene and apply
the brakes.
Automatic standby mode when switching
targets
Adaptive Cruise Control will be disabled and go
into standby mode:
• if your vehicle's speed goes below 5 km/h
(3 mph) and Adaptive Cruise Control cannot
determine if the target object is a stationary
vehicle or another object, e.g. a speed bump.
• if your vehicle's speed goes under 5 km/h
(3 mph) and the vehicle ahead turns so that
Adaptive Cruise Control no longer has a vehi-
cle to follow.

Automatic standby mode
Pilot Assist is dependent on other systems, such
as Electronic Stability Control (ESC
66
). If any of
these other systems stops working, Pilot Assist
will automatically switch off.
WARNING With automatic standby mode, the driver is
warned by an acoustic signal and a message
on the instrument panel.
•
The driver must then regulate vehicle
speed, apply the brakes if necessary, and
maintain a safe distance to other vehicles.
Adaptive Cruise Control may go into standby
mode if, e.g.:
• the driver opens the door.
• the brake temperature is high.
• the driver's hands are not on the steering
wheel.
• the parking brake is applied.
• the engine speed (rpm) is too low/high.
• the driver unbuckles the seat belt.
• one or more of the wheels lose traction.
• the camera/radar sensor is covered by snow
or heavy rain (the camera lens/radar waves
are blocked) •
your vehicle's speed goes below 5 km/h
(3 mph) and Pilot Assist cannot determine if
the vehicle ahead is stationary or if it is
another object, e.g. a speed bump.
• your vehicle's speed goes under 5 km/h
(3 mph) and the vehicle ahead turns so that
Pilot Assist no longer has a vehicle to follow.
Reactivating Pilot Assist from standby
mode Note: This illustration is general and details may vary
depending on model.
To reactivate Pilot Assist:
–
Press the button on the steering wheel
(1).
