Park Assist Pilot (PAP)* - function
The Park Assist Pilot (PAP – Park Assist Pilot) helps the driver to park by first checkingwhether a space is sufficiently large and thenturning the steering wheel and steering thecar into the space. The combined instrumentpanel uses symbols, graphics and text toshow when different operations should beperformed.
NOTE
The PAP function measures the space and turns the steering wheel - the driver's taskis to follow the combined instrument pan-el's instructions and select the gear(reverse/forward), control the speed, brakeand stop.
PAP can be activated if the following criteria are met once the engine has been started:
• The functions DSTC or ABS must not intervene while the PAP function is ena-bled - these can be activated due to asteep or slippery surface, for example;see the sections on Foot brake and Sta-bility and traction control system for moreinformation.
• A trailer must not be connected to thecar.
• The speed must be below 50 km/h.
Principle for PAP.
The PAP function parks the car using the fol- lowing steps:
1. The function searches for a parking space and measures it (A & B) - during measure- ment the speed must notexceed 30 km/h.
2. The car is steered into the space while reversing (C & D).
3. The car is straightened up in the space by driving back and forth (E & F ).

Park Assist Pilot (PAP)* - operation
The Park Assist Pilot (PAP – Park Assist Pilot) helps the driver to park by first checkingwhether a space is sufficiently large and thenturning the steering wheel and steering thecar into the space. The combined instrumentpanel uses symbols, graphics and text toshow when different operations should beperformed.
NOTE
Remember that certain steering wheel positions may obstruct the combinedinstrument panel's instructions when youturn it during the parking manoeuvre.
1 - Searching and checking measurements
The PAP function searches for a parking space and checks whether it is big enough.Proceed as follows:
1. Activate PAP by pressingthis button and do not drivefaster than 30 km/h.
2. Keep an eye on the combined instrumentpanel and be prepared to stop the car when the graphics and text so request.
3. Stop the car when the graphics and text so request.
NOTE
PAP searches the area for a parking space, displays instructions and guidesthe car in on its passenger side. But ifrequired the car can also be parked on thedriver's side of the street:
• Activate the direction indicator for the driver's side - the car is then parkedon that side of the street instead.

2 - Reversing in
During the Reversing step, PAP will steer the car into the parking space. Proceed as fol-lows:
1. Check that the area behind the car is
clear, then engage reverse gear.
2. Reverse slowly and carefully without touching the steering wheel - and no faster than approx. 7 km/h.
3. Keep an eye on the combined instrument panel and be prepared to stop the carwhen the graphics and text so request.
NOTE
•Keep your hands away from the steer- ing wheel when the PAP function isactivated.
• Make sure that the steering wheel isnot hindered in any way and can rotatefreely.
• For optimum results - Wait until thesteering wheel has been turned beforestarting to drive backwards/forwards.
3 - Straightening up
When the car has reversed into the parking space, it must be straightened up and stop-ped. 1. Engage 1st gear or
D position, wait until
the steering wheel has been turned, then drive slowly forwards.
2. Stop the car when the graphics and text message so request.
3. Engage reverse gear and drive back- wards slowly until the graphics and textmessage tell you to stop.
The function is disengaged automatically when parking is complete, and the graphicsand text message show that parking is com-plete. It may be necessary for the driver tocorrect the positioning afterwards. Only thedriver can determine whether the car is prop-erly parked.
IMPORTANT
The warning distance is shorter when the sensors are used by Active Park Assistcompared with when Park Assist uses thesensors.

Park Assist Pilot (PAP)* - limitations
The Park Assist Pilot (PAP – Park Assist Pilot) helps the driver to park by first checkingwhether a space is sufficiently large and thenturning the steering wheel and steering thecar into the space. The combined instrumentpanel uses symbols, graphics and text toshow when different operations should beperformed. The PAP sequence is stopped:
• if the car is driven too quickly - above 7 km/h
• if the driver touches the steering wheel
• if the ABS or DSTC function is enabled -e.g. if a wheel loses grip on a slipperyroad surface.
A text message indicates why the PAP sequence was stopped.
NOTE
Dirt, ice and snow covering the sensors will reduce their function and may preventmeasurement.
IMPORTANT
Under certain circumstances, PAP is unable to find parking spaces - one reasonfor this may be the fact that there is inter-ference with the sensors from externalsound sources which emit the same ultra-sound frequencies as those with which thesystem works. Examples of such sources include horns, wet tyres on asphalt, pneumatic brakesand exhaust noises from motorcycles etc.
To bear in mindThe driver should bear in mind that the Park Assist Pilot is an aid - not an infallible, fully-automatic function. The driver must thereforebe prepared to intervene. There are also sev-eral details to bear in mind while parking, e.g.:
• PAP starts out from the current location of the parked vehicles - if they are inap-propriately parked then the car's tyresand wheel rims may be damaged againstkerbs.
• PAP is designed for parking on straightstreets - not sharp bends or turns in theroad. For this reason, make sure the caris parallel to the parking space when PAPmeasures the space.
• It is not always possible to find parkingspaces on narrow streets since there isnot enough space for manoeuvring. Insuch parking situations, it helps the sys- tem to drive as close to the side of theroad as possible where you intend topark.
• Bear in mind that the front of the car mayswing out towards oncoming traffic whilebeing parked.
• Objects situated higher than the detectionarea of the sensors are not included whencalculations are made for the parkingmanoeuvre. This may cause PAP toswing into the parking space too early -for this reason, such parking spacesshould be avoided.
• The driver is responsible for determiningwhether the space selected by PAP issuitable for parking.
• Use approved tyres 24
with the correct tyre
pressure - this affects PAP's ability topark the car.
• Heavy rain or snow may cause the sys-tem to measure the parking space incor-rectly.
• Do not use PAP if snow chains or the
spare wheel are fitted.
• Do not use PAP if loaded objects are pro-truding from the car.
24
"Approved tyres" refers to tyres of the same type and make as those fitted new on delivery from the factory.

IMPORTANT
The PAP system's parameters may need to be updated when changing to anotherapproved wheel rim size involving changedtyre circumference. Consult a workshop -an authorised Volvo workshop is recom-mended.
Maintenance
The PAP sensors are located in the bumpers 25
-
6 front and 4 rear.
For the PAP function to work correctly, its sensors must be cleaned regularly with waterand car shampoo - these are the same sen-sors that are used by parking assistance, seePark assist syst* - cleaning the sensors (p.243).

Park Assist Pilot (PAP)* - symbols and messages
The Park Assist Pilot (PAP – Park Assist Pilot) helps the driver to park by first checkingwhether a space is sufficiently large and thenturning the steering wheel and steering thecar into the space. The combined instrumentpanel uses symbols, graphics and text toshow when different operations should beperformed. The combined instrument panel can show dif- ferent combinations of symbols and text withvarying content - sometimes with a self-explanatory piece of advice on appropriateaction. If a message shows that PAP is disengaged, contact with an authorised Volvo workshop isrecommended.

Adjustable steering force*
Steering force increases with the speed of the car to give the driver enhanced sensitivity.The steering is firmer and more immediate onmotorways. Steering is light and requires noextra effort when parking and at low speed. The driver can choose between three differ- ent levels of steering force for road respon-siveness or steering sensitivity. The setting ismade in the menu system
MY CAR. For a
description of the menu system, see MY CAR(p. 103). This setting is not accessible when the car is moving.
NOTE
In certain situations the power steering may become too hot and then needs to betemporarily cooled - during this time thepower steering operates with reducedpower and turning the steering wheel maythen be perceived to be slightly heavier. In parallel with the temporarily reduced steering assistance the combined instru-ment panel shows a message.

• Pull the lever back towards "
–" (minus) to
change down a gear and release it.
The manual gearshift mode " +S–" can be
selected at any time while driving. Geartronic automatically shifts down if the driver allows the speed to decrease lowerthan a level suitable for the selected gear, inorder to avoid jerking and stalling. To return to automatic driving mode:
• Move the lever to the side to the end position at
D.
NOTE
If the gearbox has a Sport programme then the gearbox will only become manualafter the gear selector has been movedforwards or backwards in its " +S–" posi-
tion. The combined instrument panel then changes indication from
S to show which
of the gears 1, 2, 3 etc. is engaged.
Paddles*As a supplement to manual gear changing with the gear selector there are also controlslocated on the steering wheel, so-called"paddles". To be able to change gear with the steering wheel paddles they must first be activated.This is by means of pulling one of the paddlestoward the steering wheel - the combined instrument panel then changes indicationfrom "
D" to a figure, which indicates the cur-
rent gear. To then change gear one step: • Pull one of the paddles backwards - towards the steering wheel - and release.
Both steering wheel "paddles".
"
-": Selects the next lower gear.
" + ": Selects the next higher gear.
A gear change occurs at each pull of the pad- dle provided that the engine speed does notleave the permitted range. After each gear change the combined instru- ment panel changes figure to show the cur-rent gear.
NOTE
Automatic deactivation If the steering wheel paddles are not used then they are deactivated after a short time- this is indicated when the combinedinstrument panel switches indication, fromthe figure for the current gear back to " D".
The exception is during engine braking -then the paddles are activated as long asengine braking is in progress. Manual deactivation The steering wheel paddle shifters can also be deactivated manually: • Pull both paddles toward the steering wheel and hold until the combinedinstrument panel changes characterfrom the figure for the current gear to"
D ".
The paddles can also be used with the gear selector in Sport mode* - then the paddlesare constantly activated without being deacti-vated.
