Adaptive Cruise Control – passing another vehicle
Passing another vehicleIf your vehicle’s speed is being regulated by ACC and the driver indicates that he/shewould like to pass the vehicle ahead by usingthe left turn signal, ACC can assist by accel-
erating briefly. This function is active at speeds above approximately 45 mph (70 km/h).
WARNING
Please be aware that this function will also cause the vehicle to accelerate briefly incertain situations other than passinganother vehicle, for example using the leftturn signal to indicate a lane change or aturn toward a highway exit at speedsabove approximately 45 mph (70 km/h).

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) – Queue Assist
Queue Assist is an added ACC feature that is linked to your vehicle's automatic transmis-sion.
IntroductionQueue Assist is an added ACC feature that islinked to your vehicle's automatic transmis-sion. Queue Assist consists of the following func- tions: •Enhanced speed interval (including when the vehicle is at a complete stop or ismoving at speed below 18 mph(30 km/h))
• Automatic standby mode when ACCchanges target vehicles
• No automatic braking when at a standstill
• The parking brake is applied automati-cally
Please note that the lowest speed that can be set is 18 mph (30 km/h), although ACC canmaintain a set speed/distance to a vehicleahead down to a standstill. Queue Assistconsists of the following features:
Enhanced speed interval
NOTE
The driver's door must be closed and the driver's seat belt must be fastened beforeACC can be put in active mode. If the driv-er's seat belt is taken off or if the driver'sdoor is opened, ACC will return to standbymode.
Your vehicle can maintain the set time interval to the vehicle ahead at any permissiblespeed, including a complete stop. In order to activate ACC at speeds below 18 mph (30 km/h):
• The vehicle ahead must be within a rea- sonable distance (not farther away thanapprox. 100 ft/30 meters)
• The lowest speed that can be selected is18 mph (30 km/h), although ACC will alsohelp maintain the set time interval to thevehicle ahead at lower speeds, includinga complete stop.
During short stops (less than approximately 3 seconds) in slow-moving traffic, your vehi-cle will begin moving again automatically assoon as the vehicle ahead begins to move. If it takes more than 3 seconds for the vehicle ahead to begin moving, ACC will be automat-ically go into standby mode.

City Safety – introduction
City Safety™5
is a support system designed
to help the driver avoid low speed collisions when driving in slow-moving, stop-and-gotraffic. City Safety™ is not active if your vehicle’s speed is below approximately 2 mph(4 km/h). This means that City Safety™ willnot react if your vehicle approaches anothervehicle at very low speed, for example, whenparking. The function is active at speeds up to approximately 30 mph (50 km/h) and assiststhe driver by applying the brakes automati-cally, thereby avoiding or helping to reducethe effects of a collision. City Safety™ is designed to intervene as late as possible to help avoid unnecessary activa-tion. City Safety™ triggers brief, forceful braking if a low-speed collision is imminent. However,the system will not intervene in situationswhere the driver actively steers the vehicle orapplies the brakes, even if a collision cannotbe avoided. This is done in order to alwaysgive the driver’s actions highest priority. City Safety™ activates in situations where the driver has not applied the brakes in time, which means that the system cannot help thedriver in all situations. City Safety™ should not be used to alter the way in which the driver operates the vehicle.The driver should never rely solely on thissystem to safely stop the vehicle. Normally, the occupants of the vehicle will not be aware of City Safety™ except whenthe system intervenes when a low-speed col-lision is imminent. If the vehicle is also equipped with the optional Collision Warning with Full Auto-brake and Pedestrian Detection system, thetwo systems interact. For more informationabout the Collision Warning with Auto-brakesystem, see Collision warning – introduction(p. 209) .
WARNING
•
City Safety™ is a supplemental aid to the driver. It can never replace thedriver’s attention to traffic conditionsor his/her responsibility for operatingthe vehicle in a safe manner.
• City Safety™ does not function in alldriving situations or in all traffic,weather or road conditions.
WARNING
•
City Safety™ only reacts to vehicles traveling in the same direction as yourvehicle and does not react to smallvehicles or motorcycles or to people oranimals.
• City Safety™ is not activated whenyour vehicle is backing up.
• City Safety™ functions at speeds upto 30 mph (50 km/h). This system canhelp prevent a collision if the
differ-
ence in speed between your vehicle
and the vehicle ahead is less than9 mph (15 km/h). If the difference inspeed is greater, a collision cannot beavoided but the speed at which thecollision occurs can be reduced. Thedriver must apply the vehicle’s brakesfor full braking effect.
• City Safety™ will not intervene in apotential collision situation if the vehi-cle is being driven actively. The driveris always responsible for maintaining asafe distance to a vehicle or objectahead.

Park assist – introduction
The park assist system is designed to assist you when driving into parking spaces,garages, etc. An audible signal and symbolsin the audio system’s display indicate the dis-tance to the object. The park assist system utilizes ultrasound sensors in the front bumper and rearbumper(s) to measure the distance to a vehi-cle or an object that may be close to the frontor rear of your vehicle.
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
Park Assist is an information system, NOT a safety system. This system is designedto be a supplementary aid when parkingthe vehicle. It is not, however, intended toreplace the driver's attention and judge-ment.

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 intermittent tone 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 My Car – introduc-tion (p. 76) for a description of the menusystem.
If the volume of another source from the audio system is high, this will be automati-cally lowered.
Rear park assist
G017833
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 Park assist – operation(p. 234).
• 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.
