144
Operation
Activate/deactivate this function by turning the ring on the left-side steering wheel lever to
.
If the ring is not in this position, toggling between high and low beams must be done manually. If the ring is turned to another position while the high beams are on, the headlights will automati-cally switch to low beams. A white symbol (
) in the instrument panel
indicates that the function has been activated. When the high beams are on, the symbol will change to blue.
NOTE
•Keep the windshield in front of the cam- era free of ice, snow, dirt, etc.
• Do not mount or in any way attach any-thing on the windshield that couldobstruct the camera.
If a message is displayed in the instrument panel saying that active high beams are temporarilyunavailable, switching between high and lowbeams will have to be done manually. However, the light switch can remain in the
position.
The same applies if a message saying that the windshield sensors are blocked and the
symbol are displayed. The symbol will go
out if this happens. Automatic high beams may be temporarily unavailable (e.g., in heavy fog or rain). When thesystem becomes active again or if the sensors inthe windshield are no longer obscured, the mes- sages will disappear and the
symbol will
illuminate.
WARNING
• Automatic high beams are a driving aid designed to help provide the best possi-ble headlight illumination in good drivingconditions.
• The driver is always responsible for man-ually toggling between high and lowbeams when this is required by traffic orweather conditions.
CAUTION
In the following situations, it may be neces- sary to switch between high and low beamsmanually:
• In heavy fog or rain
• In blowing snow or slush
• In bright moonlight
• In freezing rain
• In areas with dim street lighting
• When oncoming vehicles have dim front lighting
• If there are pedestrians on or near theroad
• If there are reflective objects, such assigns, near the road
• When oncoming vehicles' lights areobscured by e.g., fences, bushes, etc.
• When there are vehicles on connectingroads
• At the top of hills or in dips in the road
• In sharp curves
Auxiliary lights
*If the vehicle is equipped with auxiliary lights, the driver can use the center display to activate/deactivate them or decide if they will go on/off along with the high beams 11
.
11 These lights must be connected to the vehicle's electrical system by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician.

City Safety limitations
City Safety ™ may have limited or reduced func-
tionality in certain situations.
The function has several limitations that the driver should be familiar with:
Low objects
Hanging objects, such as flags for overhanging loads or accessories such as auxiliary lights orfront protective grids that extend beyond theheight of the hood may limit City Safety's func-tion.
Slippery driving conditions
The extended braking distance on slippery roads may reduce City Safety's capacity to help avoid acollision. In situations of this type, the ABSbrakes and Electronic Stability Control will helpprovide braking power and stability.
Backlighting
Strong sunlight, reflections, extreme light con- trasts, the use of sunglasses, or if the driver is notlooking straight ahead may make the visual warn-ing signal in the windshield difficult to see.
Heat
If the temperature in the passenger compartment is very high, the camera and radar sensor may betemporarily turned off for approx. 15 minutesafter the engine has been started to protect theirelectronic components. When the temperaturehas cooled sufficiently, the camera and radarsensor will restart automatically. The visual warning signal may also be temporarilydisabled due to high passenger compartmenttemperatures caused by strong sunlight. Warnings may not be given if the distance to the vehicle ahead is short and the driver is activelyoperating the vehicle (clearly depressing a pedalor turning the steering wheel).
Reduced visibility
City Safety's functions may be greatly impeded or deactivated by e.g., intense snowfall or rain, indense fog, in very dusty conditions or if there isblowing snow in front of the vehicle. Condensa-tion, ice, snow or dirt on the windshield may alsoreduce the system's functionality.
NOTE
•
Keep the windshield in front of the radar sensor free of ice, snow, dirt, etc.
• Snow or ice on the hood deeper than2 inches (5 cm) may obstruct the sensor.Keep the hood free of ice and snow.
• Do not mount or in any way attach any-thing on the windshield that couldobstruct the radar sensor.

The tone becomes constant when you are within approximately 1 ft (30 cm) of an object and theinnermost sensor field will be red. If there areobjects within this distance both behind and infront of the vehicle, the tone alternates betweenfront and rear speakers. While an audible signal is being given, its volume level can be raised/lowered using the
>II control
in the center console or can be adjusted in the Setting menu.
WARNING
Park Assist is an information system, NOT a safety system. This system is designed to bea supplementary aid when parking the vehicle.It is not, however, intended to replace the driv-er's attention and judgement.
Rear park assist
The system's rear sensors are activated automat- ically when the engine is started and are active ifthe vehicle rolls rearward with the gear selector in N or if R has been selected.
The distance monitored behind the vehicle is approximately 5 ft (1.5 m). The audible signalcomes from the rear speakers. The rear sensors will be deactivated automatically when towing a trailer if Volvo genuine trailer wir-ing is used. If a non-Volvo trailer hitch is beingused, it may be necessary to switch off the sys-tem manually.
Side park assist
The system's side sensors are activated automat- ically when the engine is started and are active atspeeds below approximately 6 mph (10 km/h). The distance monitored along the sides of thevehicle is approximately 1 ft (0.3 m). The audiblesignal comes from the side speakers.
Front park assist
The system's front sensors are activated auto- matically when the engine is started and areactive at speeds below approximately 6 mph(10 km/h). The distance monitored in front of the vehicle is approximately 2.5 ft (0.8 m). The audible signalcomes from the front speakers. Front Park Assist is deactivated if the parking brake is applied or if the gear selector is put in
P.
When installing auxiliary headlights, be sure that they do not obstruct the front sensors. Otherwise,these lights could trigger a Park Assist warning.

Brake functions
The vehicle's standard braking features are aug- mented by a number of auxiliary help functions.
In addition to the wheel brakes and the parking brake, the vehicle is equipped with several auto-matic brake assist functions. These systems helpthe driver by e.g., keeping the vehicle stationarywhen the brake pedal is not depressed (at a traf-fic light or intersection), when starting up a hill orwhen driving down a hill. These systems include: • Auto-hold brakes
• Hill Start Assist
• Braking assist after a collision
• Hill Descent Control
