Lane Keeping Aid (LKA) - function
Certain settings can be made for the Lane Departure Warning function.
Off & OnThe Lane Keeping Aid is active within thespeed interval 65-200 km/h on roads withclearly visible side lines. The function is tem-porarily deactivated on narrow roads withless than 2.6 metres between the lane's sidelines.
Press the button in the centre console to acti- vate or deactivate the function. The functionis switched on if one lamp is illuminated in thebutton. Some combinations of the selected equip- ment leave no vacant space for an On/Offbutton in the centre console - in which casethe function is instead handled in the car'smenu system
MY CAR. For a description of
the menu system, see MY CAR (p. 103). In addition, the following selections can be made in MY CAR :
• Warning with vibration in the steering wheel: -
On or Off.
• Active steering: -
On or Off.
• Both, Warning with vibration in the steer- ing wheel and Active steering: -
On orOff.
Active steeringThe Lane Keeping Aid strives to keep the car within the side lines for the lane.
LKA intervenes and steers away.
If the vehicle approaches the left or right side line of the lane and the direction indicator is not activated, the car is steered back into thelane.
Warning with vibration in steering wheel

Park assist camera
The parking camera is an assist system and is activated when reverse gear is engaged (canbe changed in the settings menu (p. 246)). The camera image is shown on the centre console's screen.
NOTE
When a towbar is configured with the car's electrical system, the protrusion of thetowbar is included when the functionmeasures the parking space.
WARNING
• The parking camera serves as an aid. It does not relieve the driver of respon-sibility when reversing.
• The camera has blind spots, whereobstacles cannot be detected.
• Be aware of people and animals in thevicinity of the car.
Function and operation
CAM
button location.
The camera shows what is behind the car and if something appears from the sides. The camera shows a wide area behind the car and part of the bumper and any towbar. Objects on the screen may appear to tilt slightly - this is normal.
NOTE
Objects on the display screen may be closer to the car than they appear to be onthe screen.
If another view is active the parking camera system takes over automatically and thecamera image is displayed on the screen. When reverse gear is engaged two unbroken lines are shown graphically which illustrate where the car's rear wheels will roll with thecurrent steering wheel angle, this facilitatestight parking, reversing into tight spaces andfor hitching a trailer. The car’s approximateexternal dimensions are illustrated by meansof two dashed lines. These park assist linescan be switched off in the settings menu. If the car is also equipped with parking assis- tance sensors* then their information is dis-played graphically as coloured fields in orderto illustrate the distance to detected obsta-cles, see the heading "Cars with reversingsensors" later in the text. The camera is active approx. 5 seconds after reverse gear has been disengaged or until thecar's speed exceeds 10 km/h forward or35 km/h backward.

BLIS* (Blind Spot Information System) - operation
BLIS (Blind Spot Information System) is a function designed for providing support forthe driver when driving in dense traffic onroads with several lanes in the same direction.
Activate/deactivate BLISBLIS is activated when the engine is started.This is confirmed by the indicator lamps inthe door panels flashing once.
Button for activating/deactivating.
The BLIS function can be deactivated/acti-
vated by pressing the BLIS button on the
centre console. Some combinations of the selected equip- ment leave no vacant space for a button inthe centre console - in which case the func-tion is handled by the car's menu system (p.103) MY CAR . When BLIS is deactivated/activated the lampin the button extinguishes/illuminates and thecombined instrument panel confirms thechange with a text message. The door panelindicator lamps flash once upon activation. To extinguish the message:
• Press the left stalk switch
OK button.
or
• Wait approx. 5 seconds - the message extinguishes.
When BLIS operates
Principle for BLIS: 1. Zone in blind spot. 2. Zone for rapidly approaching vehicle.
The BLIS function is active at speeds above approx. 10 km/h. The system is designed to react when: •
the driver's vehicle is overtaken by other vehicles
• the driver's vehicle is rapidly caught upby another vehicle.
When BLIS detects a vehicle in zone 1 or a quickly approaching vehicle in zone 2, thedoor panel BLIS lamp illuminates with a con-stant glow. If the driver activates the directionindicator on the same side as the warning inthis situation then the BLIS lamp will changefrom a constant glow to flashing with a moreintense light.
WARNING
BLIS does not work in sharp bends. BLIS does not work when the car is being reversed.
Limitations
• Dirt, ice and snow covering sensors can reduce functionality and make it impossi-ble to provide warnings. BLIS cannotdetect hazards if it is covered.
• Do not affix any objects, tape or labels inthe area of the sensors.
• BLIS is deactivated when a trailer is con-nected to the car's electrical system.

Remote start (ERS)*
Remote start (ERS – Engine Remote Start) means that the car's engine can be startedremotely using the remote control key or thePCC key. This is so that the passenger com-partment can be warmed up/cooled downbefore departure. The climate control system and audio system start with the same settings that were in usewhen the car was parked. An ERS-started engine is activated for a maximum of 15 minutes, then it is switchedoff. After two ERS-activations the enginemust be started in the normal way beforeERS can be re-used. The optional ERS function is available on most cars with automatic gearbox.
NOTE
The service life of the remote control key's battery is affected by the ERS function. Inthe event of frequent use of ERS the bat-tery should therefore be changed once peryear, see Remote control key/PCC -replacing the battery (p. 158).
NOTE
Follow local/national rules/regulations on idling.
WARNING
To remote-start the engine, the following criteria must be met:
• The car must be supervised.
• There must be no people or animals inside the car.
• The car must not be parked in aclosed, unventilated area - the exhaustgases may seriously injure humansand animals.

Starting the engine – Flexifuel
Flexifuel engines can be driven on 95 octane unleaded petrol and bioethanol E85. Theengine is started in the same way as in a pet-rol-driven car.
Engine block heater*
Electrical input to the engine block heater.
Cars intended for E85 have an electric engine block heater. Starting and driving with a pre-heated engine means significantly reducedemissions and reduced fuel consumption. Forthis reason you should aim to use the engineblock heater throughout the winter months. • In outside temperatures between +5 °C and -10 °C, the electric engineblock heater should be activated for atleast 1 hour.
• In outside temperatures between-10 °C and -20 °C, the electric engine block heater should be activated for atleast 2 hours.
• In outside temperatures lower than-20 °C, the electric engine block heatershould be activated for at least 3 hours.
WARNING
The engine block heater is powered by high voltage. Fault tracing and repair of anelectric engine block heater and its electri-cal connections must only be carried outby a workshop - an authorised Volvo work-shop is recommended.
NOTE
Points to remember for carrying reserve fuel:
• In the event of stalling due to an empty fuel tank, bioethanol E85 from areserve fuel can may make the enginedifficult to start in extreme cold. This isavoided by filling the reserve fuel canwith 95 octane petrol.
For more information on Flexifuel's bioethanol E85 fuel, see Fuel - bioethanol E85 (p. 304).
In the event of starting difficultiesIf the engine does not start at the first startattempt: •
Make further attempts to start with the START/STOP ENGINE
button.
• Check that the engine block heater hasbeen activated and, where appropriate,activate it for the time specified above.
IMPORTANT
If the engine does not start despite repea- ted start attempts, you are recommendedto contact an authorised Volvo workshop.
Fuel adaptationFlexifuel engines can be driven on both 95 octane unleaded petrol and bioethanol E85.Both fuels are filled in the common fuel tankso that any variations of mixing ratiosbetween these two fuels is possible. If the fuel tank is filled with petrol after the car has been driven on bioethanol E85 (or viceversa) then the engine may run slightlyunevenly for a time. For this reason it isimportant to allow the engine to accustomitself (adapt) to the new fuel mixture. Adaptation takes place automatically when the car is driven for a short period at an evenspeed.

WARNING
If and illuminate at the same
time, there may be a fault in the brake sys- tem. If the level in the brake fluid reservoir is normal at this stage, drive carefully to thenearest workshop and have the brake sys-tem checked - an authorised Volvo work-shop is recommended. If the brake fluid is below the MIN level in
the brake fluid reservoir, do not drive fur- ther before topping up the brake fluid. The reason for the loss of brake fluid must be investigated.

Foot brake - anti-lock braking system
The anti-lock braking system, ABS (Anti-lock Braking System), prevents the wheels fromlocking up during braking. The function allows steering ability to be maintained, and it is easier to swerve to avoida hazard for example. Vibration may be felt inthe brake pedal when this is engaged and thisis normal. A short test of the ABS system is made auto- matically after the engine has been startedwhen the driver releases the brake pedal. Afurther automatic test of the ABS system maybe made when the car reaches 10 km/h. Thetest may be experienced as pulses in thebrake pedal.

Foot brake - emergency brake lights and automatic hazard warningflashers
Emergency brake lights are activated to alert vehicles behind about sudden braking. Thefunction means that the brake light flashesinstead of - as in normal braking - shining witha constant glow. Emergency brake lights are activated at speeds above 50 km/h in the event of suddenbraking. After the car's speed has beenslowed below 10 km/h the brake light returnsfrom flashing to the normal constant glow -while at the same time the hazard warningflashers (p. 86) are activated, and they flashuntil the driver changes engine speed with theaccelerator pedal or they are deactivated withtheir button.
