Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) *
ACC is an optional system designed to assist the driver by maintaining a set speed or a settime interval to the vehicle ahead.
The driver sets that desired speed and time inter- val to the vehicle ahead. When the camera andradar sensor detects a slower moving vehicleahead, your vehicle's speed is automaticallyadapted. When there are no longer slower mov-ing vehicles ahead, your vehicle will accelerate toresume the set speed. ACC is designed to follow a vehicle ahead in the same lane and maintain a time interval to thatvehicle set by the driver. If the radar sensor doesnot detect a vehicle ahead, ACC will insteadmaintain the speed set by the driver. ACC is designed to smoothly regulate speed. However, the driver must apply the brakes in sit-uations that require immediate braking. Thisapplies when there are great differences inspeed between vehicles, or if the vehicle aheadbrakes suddenly. Due to limitations in the radarsensor, braking may occur unexpectedly or not atall. Adaptive Cruise Control can follow another vehi- cle from a standstill up to 125 mph (200 km/h).Always observe posted speed limits.
WARNING
• It is advisable to read through all of the related articles pertaining to ACC (seethe list at the end of this article).
• Adaptive Cruise Control cannot cover alldriving situations and traffic, weather androad conditions.
• This system is designed to be a supple-mentary driving aid. It is not, however,intended to replace the driver's attentionand judgement. The driver is responsiblefor maintaining a safe distance and speedand must intervene if Adaptive CruiseControl does not maintain a suitablespeed or suitable distance to the vehicleahead.
• Maintenance of ACC components mayonly be performed by a trained and quali-fied Volvo technician.
OverviewThe distance to the vehicle ahead (in the same lane) is monitored by a radar sensor. Your vehi-cle's speed is regulated by accelerating andbraking. The brakes may emit a sound when theyare being modulated by the adaptive cruise con-trol system. This is normal.
WARNING
•
Adaptive Cruise Control is not a collision avoidance system. The driver is alwaysresponsible for applying the brakes if thesystem does not detect another vehicle.
• Adaptive Cruise Control does not react topeople or animals, or small vehicles suchas bicycles and motorcycles. It also doesnot react to slow moving, parked orapproaching vehicles, or stationaryobjects.
• Do not use Adaptive Cruise Control indemanding driving conditions such as citydriving or other heavy traffic situations, inslippery conditions, when there is a greatdeal of water or slush on the road, duringheavy rain or snow, in poor visibility, onwinding roads or on highway on- or off-ramps.
WARNING
The brake pedal moves when the adaptive cruise control system modulates the brakes.Do not rest your foot under the brake pedal.

270 To temporarily deactivate and put Adaptive Cruise Control in standby mode:
Function buttons and symbols
–Press the button (2).
> The
symbol in the instrument panel
will change colors from WHITE to GRAY and the set speed in the center of thespeedometer will change from BEIGE toGRAY.
Standby mode due to action by the driver
ACC is temporarily deactivated and put in standby mode if:
• the brakes are applied
• The gear selector is moved to
N
• the vehicle is driven faster than the set speed for more than 1 minute. In these cases, the driver will have to regulate the vehicle's speed. A temporary increase in speed, such as when passing another vehicle, does not affect the ACCset speed. The vehicle will return to the set speedwhen the accelerator pedal is released.
Automatic standby mode
ACC interacts with other systems, such as Electronic Stability Control. If any of these othersystems are not functioning properly, ACC willturn off automatically.
WARNING
If this happens, the driver will be alerted by an audible signal and a message in the instru-ment panel. The driver will have to adapt thevehicle's speed, apply the brakes when nec-essary and keep a safe distance to the vehicleahead.
ACC switches automatically to standby mode if: • the vehicle's speed goes below approx. 3 mph (5 km/h) and ACC cannot determineif the vehicle ahead is stationary or is anobject such as a speed bump, etc
• the vehicle's speed goes below approx.3 mph (5 km/h) and the vehicle aheadchanges lanes or turns so that ACC nolonger has a target vehicle to follow
• the driver opens the door
• the driver unbuckles the seat belt •
engine speed (rpm) is too high/low
• the wheels lose traction
• the parking brake is applied
• the stability system's
ESC Sport Mode is
activated
• the
Off Road drive mode is selected
• The radar sensor is covered by e.g., wet snow or if heavy rain interferes with radar waves
Reactivating ACC from standby modeTo reactivate ACC after it has temporarily been put in standby mode:
–Press the button (1).
> The vehicle will then return to the most
recently set speed .
WARNING
There may be a significant increase in speed after the
button has been pressed.

WARNING
•Pilot Assist is designed to be a supple- mentary driving aid and cannot cover alldriving situations, traffic, weather and/orroad conditions.
• The driver should be familiar with all ofthe information in this article regardingPilot Assist, including its limitations.
• Pilot Assist is not intended to replace thedriver's attention and judgement.
• Pilot Assist must only be used wherethere are clearly visible traffic lane sidemarker lines on both sides of the currenttraffic lane. In other circumstances thereis an increased risk of collision with sur-rounding obstacles that are not detectedby the system.
• The driver is always responsible for steer-ing the vehicle and maintaining a suitablespeed and distance to the vehicle aheadand must intervene if necessary, even ifPilot Assist is being used.
Pilot Assist is designed to regulate speed smoothly but in situations calling for fast braking,the driver must apply the brakes. This applies tosituations where there are considerable differen-ces in speed or if the vehicle ahead brakes sud-denly. Due to the limitations of the camera andradar sensor, the system may apply the brakes inyour vehicle suddenly or not at all. The default speed for Pilot Assist is preset toapprox. 30 mph (50 km/h) and cannot bechanged. If the vehicle ahead increases speed toover 30 mph (50 km/h) and pulls away from yourvehicle, Pilot Assist will go into standby mode.
NOTE
•
Pilot Assist maintenance should only be carried out by a trained and qualifiedVolvo service technician.
• Pilot Assist regulates your vehicle'sspeed using the accelerator pedal andthe brakes. Please be aware that theremay be a faint sound from the brakeswhen the system is using them.
WARNING
•Pilot Assist does not react to people or animals, or small vehicles such as bicy-cles and motorcycles. It also does notreact to low trailers, slow moving, parkedor approaching vehicles, or stationaryobjects.
• Do not use Pilot Assist in demandingdriving conditions such as city driving orother heavy traffic situations, in slipperyconditions, when there is a great deal ofwater or slush on the road, during heavyrain or snow, in poor visibility, on windingroads or on highway on- or off-ramps.

• Pilot Assist uses the vehicle's cameraand radar sensor, which have limitations.
Pilot Assist may deactivate or not function optimally if:
• the lane's side market lines are missing, badly faded or cross each other.
• the division of lanes is not clear, e.g.,when a line divides or merges withanother, at exits or if there are many roadsigns/markers.
• if there are edges or other lines on ornear the lane, e.g., curbs, cracks, repairedareas, sharp shadows, etc.
• the lane is narrow or winding.
• the weather conditions (rain, snow, fog,slush, poor visibility, backlighting, etc).
The driver should also be aware that Pilot Assist has the following limitations:
• High curbs, barriers and temporary obsta- cles (cones, barriers etc) may not bedetected or could be detected incorrectlyas side marker lines, which may create arisk of collision. The driver must ensure asafe distance to these obstacles.
• The camera or radar sensor may not beable to detect objects if there are pot-holes or if there are stationary objectspartially or completely blocking the road.
• Pilot Assist does not "see" pedestrians,animals, etc.
• Pilot Assist's steering capacity is limitedand may not always be able to help thedriver keep the vehicle in the lane.
The driver can always take action to override Pilot Assist.
Steep roads and/or heavy loadsPilot Assist is primarily intended for use on rela-tively level roads. The function may not be able tomaintain the correct time interval to the vehicleahead on when driving down steep hills, when thevehicle is transporting a heavy load or if it is tow-ing a trailer. The driver should be attentive andprepared to apply the brakes in these situations.

Adaptive cruise control passing assistance
ACC can assist the driver when passing other vehicles.
How passing assistance worksWhen ACC is following another vehicle and the driver indicates that he/she is about to pass thatvehicle by using the left turn signal, ACC willbegin accelerating toward the vehicle aheadbefore your vehicle has moved into the passinglane. The function will then delay a speed reduction to avoid early braking as your vehicle approachesthe slower-moving vehicle. The function is active until your vehicle has passed the other vehicle.
WARNING
Be aware that this function may be activated in situations other than when passing a vehi-cle, such as if the turn signal is used to indi-cate a lane change or to indicate a turn. Thevehicle will accelerate briefly.
Using passing assistanceTo activate passing assistance:
• Your vehicle (ACC) must be following another vehicle (the target vehicle).
• Current speed must be at least approx.45 mph (70 km/h ). •
The speed set for ACC must be high enoughto safely pass the vehicle ahead.
Starting passing assistanceTo start a passing assistance sequence:
• Activate the left turn signal.
Passing assistance limitations
WARNING
The driver should be prepared for sudden changes when passing assistance is used. Incertain cases, there may be undesired accel-eration. Certain situations should be avoided, such as: • If the vehicle is approaching an exit to the left or a left turn.
• If the vehicle ahead slows down beforeyour vehicle has moved into the passinglane.
• Traffic in the passing lane slows down.
Passing assistance in these situations can be deactivated by putting ACC in standby mode.
