Driver distraction
Please keep the following warnings in mindwhen operating/servicing your vehicle.
A driver has a responsibility to do everything pos-sible to ensure his or her own safety and thesafety of passengers in the vehicle and otherssharing the roadway. Avoiding distractions is partof that responsibility.
Driver distraction results from driver activities thatare not directly related to controlling the vehiclein the driving environment. Your new Volvo is, orcan be, equipped with many feature-rich enter-tainment and communication systems. Theseinclude hands-free cellular telephones, navigationsystems, and multipurpose audio systems. Youmay also own other portable electronic devicesfor your own convenience. When used properlyand safely, they enrich the driving experience.Improperly used, any of these could cause a dis-traction.
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 newer features that maybe found 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.
•Never program your audio system whilethe vehicle is moving. Program radio pre-sets with the vehicle parked, and use yourprogrammed presets to make radio usequicker and simpler.
•Never use portable computers or per-sonal digital assistants while the vehicleis moving.

Accessory installation
•We strongly recommend that Volvo ownersinstall only genuine, Volvo-approved acces-sories, and that accessory installations beperformed only by a trained and qualifiedVolvo service technician.
•Genuine Volvo accessories are tested toensure compatibility with the performance,safety, and emission systems in your vehicle.Additionally, a trained and qualified Volvoservice technician knows where accessoriesmay and may not be safely installed in yourVolvo. In all cases, please consult a trained
and qualified Volvo service technician beforeinstalling any accessory in or on your vehicle.
•Accessories that have not been approved byVolvo may or may not be specifically testedfor compatibility with your vehicle. Addition-ally, an inexperienced installer may not befamiliar with some of your car's systems.
•Any of your car's performance and safetysystems could be adversely affected if youinstall accessories that Volvo has not tested,or if you allow accessories to be installed bysomeone unfamiliar with your vehicle.
•Damage caused by unapproved or improperlyinstalled accessories may not be covered byyour new vehicle warranty. See your Warrantyand Service Records Information booklet formore warranty information. Volvo assumes noresponsibility for death, injury, or expensesthat may result from the installation of non-genuine accessories.

If the camera and radar sensor cannot detect thelane's side marker lines or a vehicle ahead, PilotAssist goes into standby mode.
When Pilot Assist is in standby mode and yourvehicle comes too close to the vehicle ahead, thedriver will be alerted by the Distance Alert func-tion.

WARNING
•Pilot Assist is designed to be a supple-mentary driving aid and cannot cover alldriving situations, traffic, weather and/orroad conditions.
•The driver should be familiar with all ofthe information in this article regardingPilot Assist, including its limitations.
•Pilot Assist is not intended to replace thedriver's attention and judgement.
•Pilot Assist must only be used wherethere are clearly visible traffic lane sidemarker lines on both sides of the currenttraffic lane. In other circumstances thereis an increased risk of collision with sur-rounding obstacles that are not detectedby the system.
•The driver is always responsible for steer-ing the vehicle and maintaining a suitablespeed and distance to the vehicle aheadand must intervene if necessary, even ifPilot Assist is being used.
Pilot Assist is designed to regulate speedsmoothly but in situations calling for fast braking,the driver must apply the brakes. This applies tosituations where there are considerable differen-ces in speed or if the vehicle ahead brakes sud-denly. Due to the limitations of the camera andradar sensor, the system may apply the brakes inyour vehicle suddenly or not at all.
•The default speed for Pilot Assist is preset toapprox. 30 mph (50 km/h) and cannot bechanged. If the vehicle ahead increasesspeed to over 30 mph (50 km/h) and pullsaway from your vehicle, Pilot Assist will gointo standby mode.

NOTE
•Pilot Assist maintenance should only becarried out by a trained and qualifiedVolvo service technician.
•Pilot Assist regulates your vehicle'sspeed using the accelerator pedal andthe brakes. Please be aware that theremay be a faint sound from the brakeswhen the system is using them.
WARNING
•Pilot Assist is not a collision avoidancesystem. The driver must react if the sys-tem does not detect another vehicle.
•Pilot Assist does not react to people, ani-mals, stationary objects, small vehicles(such as bicycles and motorcycles), lowtrailers and slow moving, parked orapproaching vehicles.
•Do not use Pilot Assist in demandingdriving conditions such as city driving orother heavy traffic situations, in slipperyconditions, when there is a great deal ofwater or slush on the road, during heavyrain or snow, in poor visibility, on windingroads or on highway on- or off-ramps.

Automatic standby mode
Pilot Assist interacts with other systems, such asElectronic 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 anaudible 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 standbymode if:
•the camera cannot detect the traffic lane'sside 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 parking brake is set
•The camera lens/radar sensor is covered bye.g., wet snow or if heavy rain interferes withradar waves

Automatic braking with PilotAssist-1
The auto-hold brakes function as follows withPilot Assist.

Auto-hold brake function
In 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, Pilot Assist will go into standby mode andthe auto-hold brake function will activate.
–The driver will then have to reactivate PilotAssist in one of the following ways:
•Press the button on the left-sidesteering wheel keypad
•Press the accelerator pedal
>Pilot Assist will resume following the vehi-cle ahead (target vehicle) if it begins tomove within approx. 6 seconds.

NOTE
Pilot Assist can keep the vehicle at a stand-still for up to 5 minutes, after which the park-ing brake will be set and Pilot Assist will gointo standby mode.
The parking brake has to be released beforePilot Assist can be reactivated.
Deactivation of the auto-hold brake function
In certain situations, auto-hold will be deactivatedwhen the vehicle is at a standstill and Pilot Assistwill go into standby mode.
This means that the brakes will be released andthe vehicle can begin to roll.
The driver must actively apply the brakes to keepthe vehicle at a standstill.
This can occur in the following situations:
•the driver presses the brake pedal
•the parking brake is set
•the gear selector is moved to the P, N or Rpositions
•the driver puts Pilot Assist in standby mode

Automatically setting the parking brake
In certain situations, the parking brake is setautomatically to help keep the vehicle at a stand-still.
This occurs if:
•the driver unbuckles the seat belt or opensthe door
•Pilot Assist has kept the vehicle at a stand-still for more than approx. 5 minutes
•the engine is turned off
•the brakes overheat
