City Safety™
04
186
When City Safety™ has prevented a collision
with a stationary object the car remains sta-
tionary for a maximum of 1.5 seconds. If the car
is braked for a vehicle in front that is moving,
then speed is reduced to the same speed as
that maintained by the vehicle in front.
On a car with manual gearbox the engine stops
when City Safety™ has stopped the car, unless
the driver manages to depress the clutch pedal
beforehand.
NOTE
•Keep the windscreen surface in front of
the laser sensor free from ice, snow and
dirt (see the illustration for sensor loca-
tion, page 184).
•Do not affix or mount anything on the
windscreen in front of the laser sensor
•Remove ice and snow from the bonnet
- snow and ice must not exceed a height
of 5 cm.
Fault tracing and action
If the message Windscreen Sensors
blocked is shown on the instrument panel dis-
play, it indicates that the laser sensor is
blocked and cannot detect vehicles in front of
the car. This means that City Safety™ is not
operational.The
Windscreen Sensors blocked message
is not shown for all situations in which the laser
sensor is blocked. The driver must therefore be
diligent about keeping the windscreen and
area in front of the laser sensor clean.
The following table presents possible causes
for the message being shown, along with sug-
gestions for appropriate action.
CauseAction
The windscreen sur-
face in front of the
laser sensor is dirty
or covered with ice
or snow.Clean the wind-
screen surface in
front of the sensor
from dirt, ice and
snow.
The laser sensor
field of vision is
blocked.Remove the block-
ing object.
IMPORTANT
If there are cracks, scratches or stone chips
in the windscreen in front of either of the
laser sensor's "windows" and they cover a
surface of approx. 0.5 x 3.0 mm (or larger),
then a workshop must be contacted for
repair or replacement of the windscreen
(see the illustration for sensor location, page
184) - an authorised Volvo workshop is rec-
ommended.
Failure to take action may result in reduced
performance for City Safety™.
To avoid the risk of reducing City Safety™
performance the following also applies:
•The same type or a Volvo-approved
windscreen must be fitted during
replacement
•The same type or Volvo-approved
windscreen wipers must be fitted during
replacement.
Laser sensor
The City Safety™ function includes a sensor
which transmits laser light. Contact a qualified
workshop in the event of a fault or if the laser
sensor needs servicing - an authorised Volvo
workshop is recommended.
