Collision Warning. If Pedestrian
and Cyclist Detection with Full Auto Brake is on, the system will perform a self-test each time theengine is started by briefly illuminating the warn-ing light. See My Car – introduction (p. 71) for adescription of the menu system. When the engine is switched on, the system set- ting that was being used when it was switchedoff will be the default setting.
NOTE
The auto-brake and pedestrian/cyclist detec- tion features are always on, even if the audi-ble and visual warning signals have beendeactivated.
Activating/deactivating the audible warning signal only
The audible warning signal can be activated/ deactivated by pressing MY CAR on the center
console control panel and going to

distance.
The warning distance determines the level of sensitivity used by the system. The warning dis- tance
Long provides an earlier warning. Begin by
using Long and if the system gives too many
warnings, try changing to Normal.
WARNING
• The setting Short should only be used in
situations where traffic is light and mov- ing at low speeds.

WARNING
Pedestrian and Cyclist Detection with Full Auto Brake is designed to be a supplemen-tary driving aid. It is not, however, intended toreplace the driver's attention and judgement.The driver is always responsible for operatingthe vehicle in a safe manner. The system cannot detect a bike/cyclist if:
• He/she is wearing loose-fitting clothing that may obscure body contours
• The bike is approaching your vehicle fromthe side
• The bike is not equipped with a rear-fac-ing red reflector
• The bike is carrying large objects
• Most of the cyclist's body or the bikeitself cannot be "seen" by the system'scamera

detection
The system cannot identify all pedestrians
The Pedestrian and Cyclist Detection with Full Auto Brake system can only identify and detect apedestrian who is standing upright. This personcan be standing still, walking or running. This means that the system has to be able to identify a person's head, arms, shoulders, legs,the upper and lower parts of the body and a per-son's pattern of movement when walking or run-ning. If parts of the body are not visible to the camera, the system cannot detect the pedestrian. The following conditions apply:
• In order to detect a pedestrian, the system must have a full view of the person's entire

208 body and the person must be at least 32 in. (80 cm) tall.
• The system cannot detect a pedestrian carry-ing a large object.
• The camera's capacity to see a pedestrian atdawn or dusk is limited, much as it is for thehuman eye.
• The camera's function is deactivated and willnot detect a pedestrian in darkness or in tun-nels, even if there is street lighting in thearea.

•Pedestrian and Cyclist Detection with Full Auto Brake is designed to be a supple-mentary driving aid. It is not, however,intended to replace the driver's attentionand judgement. The driver is alwaysresponsible for operating the vehicle in asafe manner.
• The system cannot detect all pedestriansin all situations, such as in darkness/atnight and cannot detect partially hiddenpedestrians, people who are less thanapprox. 32 in. (80 cm) tall, or peoplewearing clothing that obscures the con-tours of their bodies.

Collision warning
* – limitations
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. Forthis reason, always activate the audible warningsignal. Slippery driving conditions increase braking dis- tance, which can reduce the system's capacity toavoid a collision. In these conditions, the ABS andstability systems provide the best possible brak-ing effect while helping to maintain stability.
NOTE
The visual warning signal may be temporarily disengaged in the event of high passengercompartment temperature due to strong sun-light, etc. If this occurs, the audible warningsignal will be used, even if it has been deacti-vated in the menu system.

WARNING
•In certain situations, the system cannot provide warnings or warnings may bedelayed if traffic conditions or other exter-nal factors make it impossible for theradar sensor or camera to detect apedestrian, a cyclist or a vehicle ahead.
• Warnings may not be provided if the dis-tance to the vehicle ahead is short, or ifmovements of the steering wheel/brakepedal are great, such as during activedriving.
• The sensor system has a limited range forpedestrians/cyclists and provides warn-ings and braking effect most effectively atspeeds up to 30 mph (50 km/h). For sta-tionary or slow-moving vehicles, the sys-tem functions best if your vehicle

Collision warning – troubleshooting
Fault tracing and actionsIf the message Windscreen Sensors blockedis displayed, this means that the camera isobscured and cannot detect pedestrians, cyclists, vehicles or road marker lines in front of the vehi-cle. This, in turn, means that Pedestrian and Cyclist Detection with Full Auto Brake, Driver Alert Con-trol, Lane Departure Warning or Lane KeepingAid will not have full functionality. The table lists possible causes for this message being displayed, and suitable actions.
CauseAction
The surface of the windshield in front of the camera is dirty or covered with ice or snow.Clean or clear the section of the windshield in front of the camera.
Fog, heavy rain or snow is interfering with the function of the camera.No action possible. Heavy precipitation may affect the function of the cam- era.
The surface of the windshield is clean but the message remains in the display.Wait a short time. It may take several minutes for the camera to register vis- ibility.
The surface between the inside of the windshield and the camera is dirty.Contact an authorized Volvo retailer or service technician to have this sur- face cleaned.
