Signals from the park assist system
View in the display (warning for objects front left/ right rear)
Visual indicatorThe audio system’s display gives an overview of the vehicle’s position in relation to adetected object. The marked sectors in the display indicate that one or more of the sensors has detectedan object. The closer the car symbol comesto a sector, the closer the vehicle is to theobject. If the infotainment system is switched off, the park assist system will not be able to providea visual indicator. An audible signal will stillbe provided.
Audible signalThe Park Assist system uses an intermittenttone that pulses faster as you come close toan object, and becomes constant when youare within approximately 1 ft (30 cm) of anobject in front of or behind the vehicle. Ifthere are objects within this distance bothbehind and in front of the vehicle, the tonealternates between front and rear speakers.
NOTE
The level of the audible signal can be low- ered/raised with the infotainment volumecontrol. The level can also be set in the MYCAR menu system. See page 219 for adescription of the menu system.
If the volume of another source from the audio system is high, this will be automati-cally lowered.
Rear park assist
The distance monitored behind the vehicle is approximately 5 ft (1.5 m). The audible signalcomes from the rear speakers. The system must be deactivated when towing a trailer, carrying bicycles in a rear-mountedcarrier, etc, which could trigger the rear parkassist system's sensors.

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 198.
• 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
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.

Cleaning the sensors
Location of the front sensors
Location of the rear sensors
The sensors must be cleaned regularly to ensure that they work properly. Clean them with water and a suitable car washing deter-gent. Ice and snow covering the sensors may cause incorrect warning signals.
NOTE
If the sensors are obstructed by e.g., dirt, snow, or ice, this could result in falsewarning signals from the park assist sys-tem.

Rear Park Assist Camera (PAC)*
04
202* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
Introduction
The Park Assist Camera (PAC) uses the dis- play in the center console to show the areabehind the car while you are backing up. PAC also shows guiding lines in the on- screen image to indicate the direction that thevehicle will take as it moves rearward, whichhelps simplify parallel parking, backing into atight space or when attaching a trailer to thevehicle. The images of vehicles in this section are generic and may not depict your specificmodel.
NOTE
A trailer hitch whose wiring is integrated with the vehicle's electrical system will beincluded in the measurement of the availa-ble space behind the vehicle.
WARNING
• PAC is designed to be a supplemen- tary aid when parking the vehicle. It isnot, however, intended to replace thedriver’s attention and judgment.
• The camera has blind spots where itcannot detect objects or peoplebehind the vehicle.
• Pay particular attention to people oranimals that are close to the vehicle.
• Objects seen on the screen may becloser than they appear to be.
Function
The driver sees what is behind the vehicle and if a person or animal should suddenlyappear from the side. PAC is mounted on the tailgate, near the opening handle. The camera has built-in electronics that help reduce the “fish-eye” effect so that the imageshown on the screen is as natural as possi-ble. This may cause some objects on thescreen to “lean,” which is normal.
Ambient lighting conditionsThe camera automatically monitors the ambi-ent lighting conditions behind the vehicle andconstantly adjusts sensitivity to light. Thismay cause the brightness and quality of theimage on the screen to vary slightly. Sensitiv-ity to light is increased in dark conditions or inbad weather, which may affect image quality. If the image on the screen seems too dark, brightness can be increased with the thumbwheel on the lighting panel.
NOTE
In order to function properly, the camera lens should always be kept clean. This isparticularly important in bad weather.Keep the lens free of dirt, ice or snow.

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
219 for a description of the menu system. PAC will automatically override the view cur- rently displayed on the screen and display thecamera's view behind the vehicle.
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 219 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, or press CAM to return to
a normal view.
DeactivationMove the gear selector from R to another
gear. The camera remains active for approx.5 seconds after the gear selector has beenmoved from R or until the vehicle's forward
speed exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h)(21 mph/35 km/h in reverse). The screen willthen revert to the view that was displayedbefore R was selected.
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 directly affected by the way inwhich the steering wheel is turned. This ena-bles the driver to see path the vehicle willtake, even if he/she turns the steering wheelwhile backing up.
NOTE
When backing up with a trailer, the guiding lines show the path that the vehicle will
take, not the trailer.

206* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
Introduction
The off/on button shown is located on the center console
Park Assist Pilot (PAP) is a semi-automatic system that provides assistance when parallelparking by:
• Finding a parking space and determining if it is big enough for the vehicle
• Helping to steer the vehicle into the park-ing space
Information about the actions required of the driver is provided in the instrument panel inthe form of symbols, images and text.
NOTE
If a trailer hitch is configured in the vehi- cle's electrical system, PAP will take thetrailer hitch into consideration when deter-mining the necessary size of a parkingspace.
WARNING
• PAP does not function in all situations and is only intended to assist thedriver when parallel parking.
• As the driver, you have full responsibil-ity for parking the vehicle in a safemanner.
Function
PAP's function is to measure the parking space and to turn the steering wheel duringthe parallel parking procedure. The driver isresponsible for following the instructionsshown in the instrument panel and for: shift-ing between
R (Reverse) and D (Drive) when
required, regulating the vehicle's speed,applying the brakes and stopping the vehicle. PAP can be activated in the following condi- tions: •
When the stability or ABS systems are not working actively
• The vehicle is not towing a trailer
• The vehicle's speed is below30 mph (50 km/h)How PAP works
PAP helps park the vehicle by:
1. Searching for and measuring a parking space. While this is taking place, the vehi- cle's speed must be below 20 mph(30 km/h). See also steps A and B in the
illustration in the section "1: Searchingand measuring" on page 207.
2. Steering the vehicle as it backs into the parking space. See also steps C and D in
