If the vehicle is equipped with both front and rear park assist, press the park assist button on the center console
(see the illustration) to temporarily turn off (deactivate) the systems. The indicator light in the button will go out when
the system has been switched off.
If the vehicle is equipped with rear park assist only, a message will be displayed when reverse gear is selected

The Park Assist system uses an intermittent tone that pulses faster as you come close to an object, and becomes
constant when you are within approximately 1 ft (30 cm) of an object in front of or behind the vehicle. If the volume
of another source from the audio system is high, this will be automatically lowered.
If there are objects within this distance both behind and in front of the vehicle, the signal alternates between front and
rear speakers.

If the information symbol illuminates and PARK ASSIST SERVICE REQUIRED is shown on the information
display, this indicates that the system is not functioning properly and has been disengaged. Consult a trained and
qualified Volvo service technician.
