WARNING
Eye injury may occur if any of the following
points are not followed:
•It is essential that all pertinent instruc-
tions be followed when handling laser
instruments. Testing, repairing, remov-
ing, adjusting and/or replacing any
components in the laser sensor may
only be done by a trained and qualified
Volvo service technician.
•Do not remove the laser sensor (includ-
ing removal of the lenses). A laser sen-
sor that has been removed belongs to
laser class 3B according to standard
IEC 60825-1. Devices in laser class 3B
present a risk of injury to the eyes.
•The laser sensor’s connector must be
disconnected before the sensor is
removed from the windshield.
•The laser sensor must be mounted in
place on the windshield before con-
necting the sensor’s connector.
•Do not view the laser sensor (which
emits spreading, invisible laser beams)
with optical instruments from a distance
of less than 4 inches (100 mm).

Collision warning with Full Auto-brake and Pedestrian Detection*

* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.169 Function
Function overview
Visual warning signal, collision risk
Radar sensor
Camera
Collision WarningThe radar sensor and the camera work
together to detect a pedestrian, stationary
vehicles and vehicles that are moving in the
same direction as your vehicle. If there is a risk
of collision with a vehicle or a pedestrian, the
driver is alerted by a flashing red warning light
and an audible warning signal. Collision warn-
ing is active at speeds above 3 mph (4 km/h).
Brake SupportIf the risk of collision continues to increase after
the collision warning has been given, Brake
Support is activated. Brake Support prepares
the brake system to react quickly, and the
brakes are applied slightly. This may be expe-
rienced as a light tug.
If the brakes are applied quickly, full braking
effect will be provided. Brake Support also
increases brake force if the system determines
that the driver has not applied adequate pres-
sure on the brake pedal.
Auto-brakeIf a collision is imminent and the driver has not
applied the brakes or begun to steer around the
vehicle or pedestrian, the auto-brake function
is activated without the driver pressing the
brake pedal. Full brake force is applied to help
reduce the vehicle’s speed when the collision
occurs or limited brake force is applied if this
is sufficient to avoid the collision.
NOTE
The auto-brake and brake support functions
are always on and cannot be turned off.
Operation
Settings are made by pressing MY CAR on the
center console control panel and using the
menus displayed.

Warning setting that was being used when it
was switched off will be the default setting.

If the message Windscreen Sensors
blocked is displayed, this means that the cam-
era is obscured and cannot detect pedestrians,
vehicles or road marker lines in front of the

trol will not have full functionality.The table lists possible causes for this mes-
sage being displayed, and suitable actions.

Driver Alert on.
The function is activated when the
vehicle exceeds a speed of 40 mph
(65 km/h). The display will show level
markings of 1–5 bars, where a low
number of bars indicates erratic driving. A high
number of bars indicates stable driving.
If the vehicle is being driven erratically, the
driver will be alerted by an audible signal and
the message Driver Alert, Time for a break is
displayed. The warning will be repeated after a
short time if the driving pattern remains the
same.
WARNING
•An alert should be taken seriously since
it is sometimes difficult for a driver to
realize that he/she is fatigued.
•In the event of a warning or if the driver
feels fatigued, stop as soon as possible
in a safe place and rest.

Lane Departure Warning (LDW)–
introduction
This function is designed to help reduce the
risk of accidents in situations where the vehicle
leaves its lane and there is a risk of driving off
the road or into the opposite lane. LDW con-
sists of a camera that monitors the lane’s side
marker lines. The driver is alerted by an audible
signal if the vehicle crosses a side marker line
or the road’s center dividing line.
Operation and function
LDW can be switched on or off by pressing the
button on the center console. A light in the but-
ton illuminates when the function is on.
The trip computer display shows
Lane Depart
Warn Standby <40 mph (65 km/h) when the
function is in standby mode.
When LDW is in standby mode, the function is
activated automatically after the camera has
monitored the road’s side marker lines and the
vehicle’s speed exceeds 40 mph (65 km/h).
Lane Depart Warn Available will be dis-
played.
If the vehicle’s speed falls below 37 mph
(60 km/h), LDW will return to standby modeand
Lane Depart Warn Standby <40 mph
(65 km/h) will be displayed.
If the camera can no longer monitor the road’s
side marker lines,
Lane Depart Warn
Unavailable will be displayed.
If the vehicle unexpectedly crosses the lane’s
left or right side marker lines, the driver will be
alerted by an audible signal.
No warning signal will be given in the follow-
ing situations:
•The turn signal is being used
•The driver’s foot is on the brake pedal1
•The throttle pedal is pressed quickly1
•If the steering wheel is moved quickly1
•In sharp turns that cause the vehicle’s
body to sway
See page 171 for information on the camera’s
limitations.
WARNING
The driver will only be warned once for each
time the wheels cross a marker line. No
alarm will be given if a marker line is
between the wheels.
1When Increased sensitivity has been selected, a warning will be issued if a side marker line is crossed in this situation.
