Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)*
04
* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.149
•
The gear selected is moved to
P,N or R
• The driver presses the
button to put
ACC in standby mode
The parking brake is applied
automatically
In certain situations, ACC will apply the park- ing brake in order to continue keeping thevehicle at a standstill. This happens if:
• The driver opens the door or takes off his/her seat belt
• DSTC is put in Sport mode (seepage 136)
• ACC has kept the vehicle at a standstillfor more than 2 minutes
• The engine has been switched off
• The brakes have overheated
The radar sensor and its limitations
In addition to being used by ACC, the radar sensor is also used by Distance Alert (seepage 153) and Collision Warning with FullAuto-brake and Pedestrian Detection (seepage 162). This sensor is designed to detectcars or larger vehicles driving in the samedirection as your vehicle, in the same lane.
WARNING
• If there is visible damage to the front grille or you suspect that the radarsensor may be damaged in any way,contact a trained and qualified Volvoservice technician as soon as possible.The radar sensor may only functionpartially (or not at all) if it is damagedor is not securely fastened in place.
• Accessories or other objects, such asextra headlights, must not be installedin front of the grille.
• Modification of the radar sensor couldmake its use illegal.
The radar sensor's capacity to detect vehi- cles ahead is impeded:
• if the radar sensor is obstructed and can- not detect other vehicles, for example inheavy rain, or if snow or other objects areobscuring the radar sensor.
NOTE
Keep the area in front of the radar sensor clean.
• if the speed of vehicles ahead is signifi- cantly different from your own speed.
Situations where ACC may not function optimally
WARNING
•The radar sensor has a limited field of vision. In some situations it may detecta vehicle later than expected or notdetect other vehicles at all.
• If ACC is not functioning properly,cruise control will also be disabled.

04 Driver support
Park assist*
04
178* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
NOTE
• Rear park assist is deactivated auto- matically when towing a trailer if Volvogenuine trailer wiring is used. If a non-Volvo trailer hitch is being used, it maybe necessary to switch off the systemmanually, see page 176.
• The system will not detect highobjects, such as a loading dock, etc.
• Objects such as chains, thin shinypoles or low objects may temporarilynot be detected by the system. Thismay result in the pulsing tone unex-pectedly stopping instead of changingto a constant tone as the vehicleapproaches the object. In such cases,use caution when backing up or stopthe vehicle to help avoid damage.
Front park assist
G021424
The distance monitored in front of the vehicle is approximately 2.5 ft (0.8 m). The audiblesignal comes from the audio system's frontspeakers. It may not be possible to combine auxiliary headlights and front park assist since theselights could trigger the system's sensors.
NOTE
Front park assist is deactivated when the parking brake is applied and or when thegear selector is in the
P position.
Faults in the system
If the information symbol illuminates andPark assist syst Service required is shown
on the information display, this indicates that the system is not functioning properly andhas been disengaged. Consult a trained andqualified Volvo service technician.
CAUTION
In certain circumstances, the park assist system may give unexpected warning sig-nals that can be caused by external soundsources that use the same ultrasound fre-quencies as the system. This may includesuch things as the horns of other vehicles,wet tires on asphalt, pneumatic brakes,motorcycle exhaust pipes, etc. This doesnot indicate a fault in the system.

04 Driver support
Blind Spot Information System (BLIS)*
04
* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.185
When does BLIS function
The system functions when your vehicle is moving at speeds above 6 mph (10 km/h).
When you pass another vehicle:The system reacts when you pass another vehicle at a speed of up to 6 mph (10 km/h)faster than that vehicle.
When you are passed by another
vehicle:
The system reacts if your vehicle is passed by another vehicle at a speed of up to 43 mph(70 km/h) faster than your vehicle.
WARNING
• BLIS does not function in sharp curves.
• BLIS does not function when yourvehicle is backing up.
• If you are towing a wide trailer, thismay prevent the BLIS cameras fromdetecting other vehicles in adjacentlanes.
How BLIS functions in daylight and darkness
DaylightBLIS reacts to the
shape of surrounding vehi-
cles. The system is designed to help detect motor vehicles such as cars, trucks, buses, motorcycles, etc.
DarknessBLIS reacts to the
headlights of surrounding
vehicles. In order to be detected by BLIS, a vehicle in the blind area must have its head-lights on. This means, for example, that thesystem will not detect a trailer without head-lights that is being towed behind a car ortruck.
WARNING
• BLIS does not react to cyclists or mopeds.
• BLIS does not react to vehicles thatare standing still.
• The BLIS cameras have the same limi-tation as the human eye. In otherwords, their "vision is impaired" byadverse weather conditions such asheavy snowfall, intense light directlyinto the camera, dense fog, etc.
LimitationsIn certain situations, the BLIS indicator light(s) may illuminate even when there are no othervehicles in the area monitored by the system.
NOTE
If the BLIS indicator lights illuminate occa- sionally even when there are no other vehi-cles in the blind area, this does not indi-cate a fault in the system. In the event of a fault,
Blind spot syst.
Service required will be displayed.
The following are several examples of situa- tions in which the BLIS indicator light(s) mayilluminate even when there are no other vehi-cles in the area monitored by the system.

Owner maintenance
Periodic maintenance requirements and inter- vals are described in your vehicle's Warrantyand Service Records Information booklet. The following points can be carried out between the normally scheduled maintenanceservices.
Each time the car is refueled:
•Check the engine oil level.
• Clean the windshield, windshield wipers, headlights, and taillights.
Monthly:
• Check cold tire pressure in all tires.Inspect the tires for wear.
• Check that engine coolant and other fluidlevels are between the indicated "min"and "max" markings.
• Clean interior glass surfaces with a glasscleaner and soft paper towels.
• Wipe driver information displays with asoft cloth.
• Visually inspect battery terminals for cor-rosion. Corrosion may indicate a looseterminal connector, or a battery near theend of its useful service life. Consult yourVolvo retailer for additional information.
As needed:Wash the car, including the undercarriage, to reduce wear that can be caused by a buildupof dirt, and corrosion that can be caused bysalt residues. Clean leaves and twigs from air intake vents at the base of the windshield, and from otherplaces where they may collect.

Hoisting the vehicle
If a garage jack is used to lift the vehicle, the two jack attachments points should be used. They are specially reinforced to bear theweight of the vehicle. A garage jack can alsobe placed under the front of the engine sup-port frame. Take care not to damage thesplash guard under the engine. Ensure thatthe jack is positioned so that the vehicle can-not slide off it. Always use axle stands or sim-ilar structures. If a two-post hoist is used to lift the vehicle, the front and rear lift arm pads should becentered under the reinforced lift plates onthe inboard edge of the sill rail (see illustra-tion).
Emission inspection readiness
What is an Onboard Diagnostic System
(OBD II)?
OBD II is part of your vehicle's computerized engine management system. It stores diag-nostic information about your vehicle's emis-sion controls. It can light the Check Enginelight (MIL) if it detects an emission control"fault." A "fault" is a component or systemthat is not performing within an expectedrange. A fault may be permanent or tempo-rary. OBD II will store a message about anyfault.
