Brake lights
The brake light automatically comes on during braking. The brake light is switched on when the brake pedal is depressed. In addition, it is switchedon when one of driving support systemsAdaptive cruise control (p. 188), City Safety(p. 205) or Collision warning system (p. 212)brakes the car. For information on emergency brake lights and automatic hazard warning flashers, seeFoot brake - emergency brake lights andautomatic hazard warning flashers (p. 291).
Hazard warning flashers
The hazard warning flashers warn other road users by means of all of the car's directionindicator lamps flashing simultaneously whenthis function is activated. When the hazard warning flashers are acti- vated both direction indicator symbols flash inthe combined instrument panel.
Button for hazard warning flashers.
Press the button to activate the hazard warn- ing flashers. Both direction indicator symbolsin the combined instrument panel flash whenthe hazard warning flashers are used. The hazard warning flashers are activated automatically when the car has been brakedso suddenly that the emergency brake lightshave been activated at a speed below10 km/h. The hazard warning flashers remainon when the car has stopped and are deacti-vated automatically when the car is driven off

Switch on and activateWhen the speed limiter is active, its symbol(6) is shown in combination with a mark (5) bythe set maximum speed in the combinedinstrument panel. Selection and storage of the highest possible speed in the memory can be made both dur-ing a journey and while stationary.
While driving1.
Press the steering wheel button to
switch on the speed limiter.
> The symbol (6) for speed limiter illumi- nates in the combined instrument panel.
2. When the car is moving at the desired highest possible speed: Press one of the steering wheel buttons
or until the
combined instrument panel shows a mark (5) by the desired maximum speed.
> The speed limiter is then active and the selected max. speed is stored in the memory.

–Depress the accelerator pedal fully.
> The combined instrument panel shows
the stored maximum speed with a col- oured mark (5) and the driver can tem-porarily exceed the set maximumspeed - the mark (5) changes colourduring this time from GREEN toWHITE. The speed limiter is automatically reac- tivated after the release of the acceler-ator pedal and the car's speed isslowed down to below the selected/stored maximum speed - the display'smark (5) changes colour from WHITEto GREEN and the car's maximumspeed is again limited.

Speed limiter* - alarm for speed exceeded
A (Speed Limiter) can be regarded as a reverse cruise control - the driver regulatesthe speed using the accelerator pedal but isprevented from accidentally exceeding apre-selected/set speed by the speed limiter. On a steep downhill gradient the speed limit- er's engine braking effect may be inadequateand the selected maximum speed is excee-ded. The driver is alerted about this with anacoustic signal. The signal is active until the driver has slowed to below the selected maximum speed.
NOTE
The alarm is only activated after 5 seconds if the speed has been exceeded by at least3 km/h provided that none of the buttons
or has been depressed during the
last half minute.

Cruise control* - managing speed
The cruise control (CC – Cruise Control) helps the driver to maintain an even speed. It ispossible to activate, set or change the speed.
Activating and setting the speedTo enable cruise control:
• Press the steering wheel button
> The cruise control symbol in the com-
bined instrument panel changes from WHITE to GREY and shows that thecruise control is in standby mode.
To activate cruise control:
• At the required speed - press the steering wheel button
or .
> The current speed is stored in the mem- ory and the combined instrument panel's marking (5) is illuminated/turns WHITE atthe selected speed.
NOTE
Cruise Control cannot be enabled at speeds below 30 km/h.
Changing the speedTo change the stored speed: • Adjust with short presses on
or -
every press gives +/- 5 km/h. The last presses made are stored in the memory.
To adjust +/- 1 km/h: •
Hold down the button and release it atthe required speed.
A temporary increase in speed with the accel- erator pedal, e.g. during overtaking, does notaffect the cruise control setting - the carreturns to the set speed when the acceleratorpedal is released.
NOTE
If any of the Cruise Control buttons are held depressed for several minutes then itis blocked and deactivated. To be able toreactivate Cruise Control, the car must bestopped and the engine restarted.

Temporary deactivation - standby modeTo temporarily disengage cruise control andset it in standby mode:
• Press the steering wheel button
.
> The combined instrument panel's mark- ing (5) and the symbol (6) change colour from WHITE to GREY.

Adaptive cruise control - ACC*
The adaptive cruise control (ACC – Adaptive Cruise Control) helps the driver to maintain aneven speed and a safe distance from the vehi-cle ahead. The adaptive cruise control provides a more relaxing driving experience on long journeyson motorways and long straight main roads insmooth traffic flows. The driver sets the desired speed (p. 191) and time interval (p. 192) to the car in front.When the radar detector detects a slowervehicle in front of the car, the speed is auto-matically adapted to that. When the road isclear again the car returns to the selectedspeed. If the adaptive cruise control is switched off or set to standby mode (p. 193) and the carcomes too close to a vehicle in front, then thedriver is warned instead by the DistanceWarning (p. 202) function about the shortdistance.WARNING
The driver must always be observant with regard to the traffic conditions and inter-vene when the adaptive cruise control isnot maintaining a suitable speed or suita-ble distance. The adaptive cruise control cannot handle all traffic, weather and road conditions. Read all the sections about the adaptive cruise control in the owner's manual inorder to learn about its limitations, ofwhich the driver should be aware before itis used. The driver always bears responsibility for maintaining the correct distance andspeed, even when the adaptive cruise con-trol is being used.
IMPORTANT
Maintenance of adaptive cruise control components must only be performed at aworkshop - an authorised Volvo workshopis recommended.
Automatic gearboxCars with automatic gearbox have enhanced functionality with the adaptive cruise control'sQueue Assist (p. 195).
