Before a speed can be set, the cruise control system must be engaged (put in standbymode).
–Press the CRUISE button (1).
> The symbol
illuminates and the text
(---) mph (5) indicates that cruise con-
trol is in standby mode.
NOTE
Putting cruise control in standby mode does not set a cruising speed.
Setting a speed
Use the or buttons set the vehicle's
current speed. The set speed is shown in the display.
NOTE
Cruise control cannot be engaged at speeds below 20 mph (30 km/h).
Adjusting the set speedAfter a speed has been set, it can be increased or decreased by using the
or buttons. 1. Press
or briefly and release the
button to increase or decrease vehicle speed by approximately 1 mph or 1 km/h.
> This will become the set speed when the button is released.
2. Press and hold one of these buttons to increase/decrease the speed in 1-mph or 1-km/h increments. Release the buttonwhen you have reached the desiredspeed.
NOTE
•A temporary increase in speed by pressing the accelerator pedal, for lessthan 1 minute (e.g. when passinganother car), does not affect the cur-rent cruise control setting. The vehiclewill automatically return to the previ-ously set speed when the acceleratorpedal is released.
• If one of the cruise control buttons iskept depressed for more than approx.1 minute cruise control is disengaged.The engine must then be switched offin order to reset cruise control.

Toggling between ACC and CC (standard Cruise Control)
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) helps the driver maintain a safe distance/time interval tothe vehicle ahead.
Switching from ACC to CCThis may be useful if, for example, the radarsensor is obstructed in some way. SeeAdaptive Cruise Control – limitations (p. 159)for additional information.
• Press and hold the
button; the symbol
in the instrument panel will switch from
to .
> This activates the standard cruise control function (see Cruise control (CC) – intro- duction (p. 147)).
WARNING
Switching from ACC to CC means that:
• Your vehicle will
no longer automati-
cally maintain a set distance to a vehi- cle ahead.
• Only the set speed will be maintainedand the driver will have to apply thebrakes when needed.
Switching from CC to ACC
Switch off cruise control by pressing once
or twice as needed according to the instruc- tions in the previous section "Turning ACC off completely." The next time the system isswitched on, ACC will be reactivated.

Cruise control (CC) – deactivating
Cruise control is designed to assist the driver by maintaining a set speed. It is primarilyintended for use on long straight roads insteady traffic, such as on highways and othermain roads.
Automatic deactivationThe cruise control is automatically deacti-vated
temporarily if one of the following
occurs: • If the speed drops below approximately 20 mph (30 km/h).
• When the brake pedal is depressed.
• If the gear selector is moved to positionN
.
• During wheel spin or wheel lock-up.
• If the vehicle's speed is increased byusing the accelerator pedal for more than1 minute.
• Engine speed (rpm) is too high or too low.
The currently set speed will be saved in the system's memory.
Temporary deactivationThe driver can temporarily deactivate thecruise control by pressing 0. The saved
speed is shown in brackets in the informationdisplay.

Resume set speedIf the cruise control has been deactivated temporarily, it can be reactivated by pressing
. The vehicle's speed returns to the most
recently set speed.
WARNING
There may be a significant increase in speed after the
button has been
pressed.
DeactivationThe Cruise control is disengaged by pressing
or by switching off the engine. The set
speed is cleared.
WARNING
Cruise control should not be used in heavy traffic or when driving on wet or slipperyroads. Cruise control may not maintain setspeed on steep downgrades.

Adaptive Cruise Control – introduction
ACC is an optional system designed to assist the driver by maintaining a set speed or a settime interval to the vehicle ahead. It is primar-ily intended for use on long straight roads insteady traffic, such as on highways and othermain roads. When the driver has set the desired speed and the time interval to the vehicle ahead,ACC functions as follows:
• If there are no other vehicles in the lane ahead of you, your vehicle will travel atthe set speed.
• If ACC's radar sensor detects a slowermoving vehicle in the lane ahead, the sys-tem will adapt your vehicle's speed tohelp maintain the set time interval to thevehicle ahead. When there are no longerslower moving vehicles ahead, your vehi-cle will accelerate to resume the setspeed.
If ACC is switched off completely or in standby mode and your vehicle comes tooclose to another vehicle ahead, the driver willbe warned by the Distance Alert system (seeDistance Alert – introduction (p. 164)).WARNING
• Adaptive Cruise Control cannot cover all driving situations and traffic,weather and road conditions. The"Function" section provides informa-tion about limitations that the drivermust be aware of before using thisfeature.
• This system is designed to be a sup-plementary driving aid. It is not, how-ever, intended to replace the driver'sattention and judgement. The driver isresponsible for maintaining a safe dis-tance and speed and must intervene ifAdaptive Cruise Control does notmaintain a suitable speed or suitabledistance to the vehicle ahead.
• Maintenance of ACC components mayonly be performed by a trained andqualified Volvo technician.

Adaptive Cruise Control consists of: • A cruise control system to maintain a set speed
• A system to maintain a set distance to thevehicle ahead, which is expressed as atime interval. For example, you canchoose to remain approximately 2 sec-onds behind the vehicle ahead. Theactual distance required to maintain a2-second interval will vary according thespeed of the vehicles.
