• Press
.
This symbol and the marking for the set speed with change colors from green to
white. The previously set speed and time interval are resumed by pressing
.
WARNING
The vehicle may accelerate quickly after
has been pressed if its current speed is
considerably lower than the set speed.
Standby mode due to action by the driver
ACC is temporarily deactivated and put in standby mode:
• if the brakes are applied
• if the gear selector is moved to
N
• if the driver drives faster than the set speed for more than
1 minute.
In this happens, the driver will have to regu- late the vehicle's speed.
NOTE
If the accelerator pedal is only depressed for a short time, such as when passinganother vehicle, ACC is deactivated tem-porarily and is reactivated when the pedalis released.
Automatic standby modeACC is linked to other systems such as the stability and traction control system (DSTC). Ifthis system is not functioning properly, ACCwill switch off automatically. In the event of automatic deactivation, an audible signal will sound and the message
Cruise control Cancelled is shown in the
instrument panel. The driver must then inter- vene and adapt the vehicle's speed to thesurrounding traffic and regulate the distanceto the vehicle ahead. An automatic switch to standby mode may be caused if:
• engine speed (rpm) is too high/low
• The driver's door is opened
• The driver unbuckles his/her seat belt
• the vehicle's speed goes below 18 mph (30 km/h) 4
• the wheels lose traction •
brake temperature is high
• the radar sensor is obstructed by, for example, wet snow or rain.
Resuming the set speedIf ACC is in standby mode, it can be reactiva- ted by pressing the
button on the steering
wheel keypad. The vehicle will return to the most recently set speed.
WARNING
The vehicle may accelerate quickly after
has been pressed if its current speed is
considerably lower than the set speed.
Passing another vehicleIf your vehicle’s speed is being regulated by ACC and the driver indicates that he/shewould like to pass the vehicle ahead by usingthe left turn signal, ACC can assist by accel-
erating briefly. This function is active at speeds above approximately 45 mph (70 km/h).

.
In order to function properly, the camera and laser sensor must be kept clean. Dirt, ice,snow, etc., will reduce the function of thesecomponents. Remove ice and snow when necessary and wash these areas regularly with a suitable carwashing liquid.
Limitations
Strong sunlight, reflections, extreme light contrasts, the use of sunglasses, or if thedriver is not looking straight ahead may makethe visual warning signal in the windshield dif-ficult to see. For this reason, always activatethe audible warning signal. Slippery driving conditions increase braking distance, which can reduce the system'scapacity to avoid a collision. In these condi-tions, the ABS and DSTC systems providethe best possible braking effect while helpingto maintain stability.
NOTE
The visual warning signal may be tempo- rarily disengaged in the event of high pas-senger compartment temperature due tostrong sunlight, etc. If this occurs, theaudible warning signal will be used, even ifit has been deactivated in the menu sys-tem.
WARNING
• In certain situations, the system can- not provide warnings or warnings maybe delayed if traffic conditions or otherexternal factors make it impossible forthe radar sensor or camera to detect apedestrian or a vehicle ahead.
• Warnings may not be provided if thedistance to the vehicle ahead is short,or if movements of the steering wheel/brake pedal are great, such as duringactive driving.
• The sensor system has a limited rangefor pedestrians and provides warningsand braking effect most effectively atspeeds up to 30 mph (50 km/h). Forstationary or slow-moving vehicles, thesystem functions best if your vehicle’sspeed is below approximately 45 mph(70 km/h).
• Warnings for stationary or slow-mov-ing vehicles may not be provided indark conditions or in poor visibility.
The Collision Warning system uses the same radar sensors as Adaptive Cruise Control. Formore information on the radar sensor and itslimitations, see page 151.

Driver Alert System*
04
172* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
Introduction
The Driver Alert System is designed to help a driver who may be becoming fatigued or whois inadvertently leaving the lane. The Driver Alert System consists of two differ- ent functions that can be switched ontogether or separately.
• Driver Alert Control (DAC)
• Lane Departure Warning (LDW)
, see
page 175
When one or both of the functions has beenswitched on, it is in standby mode and is acti-vated when the vehicle exceeds a speed of40 mph (65 km/h). The function deactivates if the vehicle's speed goes under 37 mph (60 km/h). Both functions use a camera that is depend- ent on the road/lane being clearly marked bypainted lines on each side.
WARNING
The Driver Alert System does not function in all situations and is designed to be asupplementary aid. It is not, however,intended to replace the driver’s attentionand judgement.
Driver Alert Control (DAC)– introduction
This function is intended to alert the driver if his/her driving becomes erratic, such as if thedriver is distracted or fatigued.
NOTE
The camera has certain limitations, see page 151.
A camera monitors the painted lines marking the lane in which the vehicle is traveling andcompares the direction of the road with thedriver’s movements of the steering wheel.The driver is alerted if the vehicle does notfollow the lane smoothly. DAC is designed to help detect a slowlychanging driving pattern. It is primarilyintended to be used on main roads and is notmeant for use in city traffic.
WARNING
•
DAC is not intended to extend the duration of driving. Always plan breaksat regular intervals to help remain alert.
• In certain cases, fatigue may not affectthe driver’s behavior. In situations ofthis type, no warning will be provided.Therefore, it is important to takebreaks at regular intervals, regardlessof whether or not DAC has given awarning.
LimitationsIn certain situations, DAC may provide warn- ings even if the driver’s driving pattern hasnot become erratic.
• if the driver is testing the LDW function
• in strong crosswinds
• on grooved road surfaces.

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 isbetween the wheels.
Limitations
The camera used by LDW has the same limi- tations as the human eye. See page168 for
more information about the camera's limita-tions.
NOTE
No warning signal will be given in the cer-
tain situations, such as:
• If the turn signal is being used
• The driver’s foot is on the brake pedal 1
• The accelerator pedal is pressed quickly 1
• If the steering wheel is moved quickly 1
• In sharp turns that cause the vehicle’s body to sway

Warning.
There are two alternatives:
On at start-up: This selection switches LDW
on each time the engine is started. Otherwise, the system will be in the mode that it was inwhen the engine was switched off.
Increased sensitivity: This selection increa-
ses the function’s sensitivity. Warnings will be given at an earlier stage and fewer limitationsapply. When this setting is being used, thesystem only needs to monitor lane markerlines on one side of the vehicle to change sta- tus to
Lane Depart Warn Available.
1 When Increased sensitivity has been selected, a warning will be issued if a side marker line is crossed in this situation.

Rear Park Assist Camera (PAC)*
04
* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.183
Using PAC
Activation
PAC is activated when the gear selector is moved to R if the system is selected in the
MY CAR menu system or by pressing the
CAM button in the center console. See page
197 for a description of the menu system. If the Volvo Navigation System (VNS) is in use, PAC will automatically override the navi-gation system to show the camera's imageon the screen instead of navigation informa-tion, for as long as reverse gear is selected.
ZoomThe camera can be useful when attaching atrailer. Press CAM to zoom in on the trailer
hitch (and press this button again to return tothe normal camera view). With the camera zoomed in on the trailerhitch, a guiding line showing the hitch's pathtoward the trailer will be projected. This fea-ture can be activated in the
MY CAR menu.
See page 197 for a description of the menusystem. The guiding lines for the wheels (seethe following section "Guiding lines") and forthe trailer hitch cannot be displayed at thesame time. If the camera shows an enlarged (zoomed) image, turn TUNE counterclockwise, or press
EXIT , CAM or OK to return to a normal view.
DeactivationMove the gear selector from R to another
position. There is a slight delay in the PACsystem, which means that the view frombehind the vehicle will remain on the screenfor approximately 15 seconds after the gearselector has been moved from the R position
or until the vehicle reaches a forward speedof 6 mph (10 km/h). The screen will thenrevert to the mode that it was in before R was
selected and will, for example, display navi-gation system information.
NOTE
If any button on the center console control panel is pressed, the camera image willdisappear from the display. Pressing CAM
will return the camera image to the display.
Guiding lines
The lines on the screen are projected as if they were a path on the ground behind thevehicle and are affected by the way in whichthe steering wheel is turned. This enables thedriver to see path the vehicle will take, even ifhe/she turns the steering wheel while backingup.
NOTE
When backing up with a trailer, the guiding lines show the path that the vehicle will
take, not the trailer.

changed in the
MY CAR menu) and the
image is shown on the center console display.
• When backing up, two solid lines are pro-jected on the screen to show the paththat the vehicle's rear wheels will take.These lines are affected by movements ofthe steering wheel. The vehicle's approxi-mate outer dimension are shown by twodashed lines.
• The graphic lines will not be displayedwhen backing up with a trailer that is con-nected to the vehicle's electrical system.
• Objects on the ground that are closerthan 1 ft (30 centimeters) cannot bedetected by the camera.
• The camera is active for approx.5 seconds after the gear selector ismoved to
R or until the vehicle's speed
exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h).
• The optional Park Assist sensors and theparking camera work together and infor-mation from the sensors is shown graphi-cally on the display.
• The graphic lines shown on the screenwhen the vehicle backs up can be disa-bled in the settings menu.
• Manual zoom can be selected in the
MY
CAR menu.
• The system can be switched off by press-ing
CAM . By default, the system is acti- vated when the gear selector is moved toR
. This setting can be changed in the MY
CAR menu.
• If there are two cameras installed on thevehicle*, to switch between cameras, turnTUNE
(at least one of the cameras has to
be active), press CAM repeatedly or use
the center console controls. If the frontcamera is on, it overrides the optionalpark assist system's visual indicator butthere will still be an audible signal.
Limitations
Even if a fairly small section of the screen image appears to be obstructed, this maymean that a relatively large area behind thevehicle is hidden and objects there may notbe detected until they are very near the vehi-cle.
NOTE
Bicycle carriers or other accessories mounted on the trunk may obstruct thecamera's field of view.
Keep in mind
• Keep the camera's lens free of dirt, ice and snow. Remove ice and snow care-fully to avoid scratching the lens.
• Clean the lens regularly with warm waterand a suitable car washing detergent.
