Stability system04
}}
155
Introduction
The Dynamic Stability and Traction Control
system (DSTC) consists of a number of func-
tions designed help reduce wheel spin, coun-
teract skidding, and to generally help improve
directional stability.
CAUTION
A pulsating sound will be audible when the
system is actively operating and is normal.
Traction control (TC)This function is designed to help reduce wheel
spin by transferring power from a drive wheel
that begins to lose traction to the wheel on the
opposite side of the vehicle (on the same axle).
TC is most active at low speeds.
This is one of DSTC\fs permanent functions and
cannot be switched off.
Active Yaw Control (AYC)This function helps maintain directional stabil-
ity, for example when cornering, by braking
one or more of the wheels if the vehicle shows
a tendency to skid or slide laterally.
This is one of DSTC\fs permanent functions and
cannot be switched off.
Spin control (SC)The spin control function is designed to help
prevent the drive wheels from spinning while
the vehicle is accelerating.
Under certain circumstances, such as when
driving with snow chains, or driving in deep
snow or loose sand, it may be advisable to
temporarily switch off this function for maxi-
mum tractive force.
WARNING
The car\fs handling and stability characteris-
tics will be altered if the spin control function
has been disabled.
Operation
Temporarily switching off Spin control1.
Turn the thumbwheel until the DSTC
menu is shown.
2. Hold down the RESET button to toggle
between DSTC SPIN CONTROL ON or
OFF.
Messages in the information display
DSTC Temporarily OFF – system function
has been temporarily reduced due to high
brake disc temperature. The function is acti-
vated automatically when the brakes have
cooled.
DSTC Service required – the system has
been disabled due to a fault. If this occurs:
1. Stop the vehicle in a safe place and turn off
the engine.
2. Restart the engine.
If the message remains when the engine is
restarted, drive to an authorized Volvo work-
shop to have the system inspected.

156 If the symbol appears alone, it may
appear as follows:
\b If the symbol flashes, this indicates that the
stability system is actively functioning to
help counteract wheel spin and/or a skid.
\b If the symbol remains on for approximately
2 seconds after the engine has been
started, this indicates that the system is
performing a self-diagnostic test.
WARNING The stability system is intended to help
improve driving safety. It supplements, but
can never replace, the driver\fs judgment
and responsibility when operating the vehi-
cle. Speed and driving style should always
be adapted to traffic and road conditions.

* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
Introduction
Collision Warning with Auto-brake is designed
to assist the driver if there is a risk of a collision
with the vehicle ahead, if that vehicle is at a
standstill or moving in the same direction as
your vehicle. Auto-brake helps reduce the col-
lision speed.
Collision Warning consists of the following
three functions:
1. Collision warningThe driver is warned of the imminent risk of a
collision.
2. Brake supportThis helps the driver brake efficiently in a criti-
cal situation.
3. Auto-brakeThis function brakes the vehicle automatically
if a collision cannot be avoided.
WARNING
The auto-brake function connot prevent a
collision but instead is intended to reduce
speed at the moment of impact. For full
braking effect, driver must apply the brakes.
WARNING \b
The collision warning system does not
work in all driving situations, and traffic,
weather and road conditions.
\b The collision warning system is not
designed to detect pedestrians.
\b Warnings are only provided when the
risk of collision is high. The Function
section provides information about lim-
itations that the driver must be aware of
before use.
\b Never wait for a collision warning. This
system is designed to be a supplemen-
tary driving aid. It is not, however,
intended to replace the driver\fs atten-
tion and judgement. The driver is
responsible for maintaining a safe dis-
tance and speed, even when the colli-
sion warning system is in use.
\b Maintenance of the collision warning
system components must only be per-
formed by a trained and qualified Volvo
technician. Function

Collision warningThe radar sensor and the camera work
together to detect stationary vehicles and vehi-
cles that are moving in the same direction as
your vehicle. If there is a risk of collision, the
driver is alerted by a flashing red warning light
and an audible warning signal. Collision warn-
ing is active at speeds above 5 mph (7 km/h).
Brake supportIf the risk of collision continues to increase after
the collision warning has been given, brake G032740
