2: Backing into the parking space
When the vehicle is backing up, PAP will steer it into the parking space.
1. Check that the area behind the vehicle is
clear and put the gear selector in R.
2. Back up slowly without moving the steering wheel. The vehicle's speed must be below approximately 4 mph 7 km/h.
3. Keep an eye on the instrument panel and be prepared to stop the vehicle when you areinstructed by PAP to do so.
NOTE
•Release the wheel while PAP is steering the vehicle.
• The steering wheel must be able to turnfreely.
• For PAP to function optimally, wait untilthe steering wheel is no longer turningbefore beginning the next phase of theparking procedure.
3: Adjusting the vehicle's position
After the vehicle has backed into the parking space, its position in the space has to beadjusted by driving slightly forward and backingup. 1.
Put the gear selector in D, wait until the
steering wheel has turned and drive forwardslowly.
2. Stop the vehicle when you are instructed by PAP to do so.
3. Put the gear selector in R, back up slowly
and stop when you are instructed by PAP todo so.
When the parking procedure is finished (this willbe indicated by a text message and a graphicimage in the instrument panel) , PAP switches offautomatically. If necessary, the driver may need tomake minor adjustments to ensure that the vehi-cle is parked correctly.

Park Assist Pilot (PAP) * – limitations
The PAP parking procedure will be cancelled if.
• The vehicle's speed goes above approxi- mately 4 mph 7 km/h
• The driver moves the steering wheel
• If the stability or ABS systems are activated(e.g., if a wheel starts to spin because of aslippery road surface
If the system has been switched off, this will beindicated by a text message in the instrumentpanel.
NOTE
• PAP will not function correctly if its sen- sors are obstructed by dirt, snow, etc.
• In certain situations, PAP may not be ableto measure a parking space. This couldbe due to external sources of sound (e.g.,a vehicle's horn, tires on wet asphalt,pneumatic brakes, noise from a motorcy-cle's exhaust, etc.) emitting ultrasoundusing approximately the same frequen-cies as PAP.
Information to keep in mind
PAP is only intended to provide parallel parking assistance but may not be able to function fully inall situations. •
PAP's function is based on the way that thevehicles are parked behind and in front ofyour parking space. If they are, for example,parked too close to the curb, there is a riskthat your vehicle's tires or wheel rims couldbe damaged by the curb during the parkingprocedure.
• PAP is intended to provide parking assis-tance on straight streets, not sections ofstreet with curved or irregular curbs. Be surethat your vehicle is parallel to the curb whenPAP measures the parking space.
• PAP may not be able to provide parkingassistance on narrow streets due to lack ofspace to maneuver the vehicle. In situationslike this, it may help to drive as close to theside of the road as possible where the park-ing space is located.
• Use only approved tires with the correct infla-tion pressure because this affects PAP'scapacity to provide parking assistance.Changing to a different approved tire sizemay affect PAP's parameters. Consult atrained and qualified Volvo service technician.
• Heavy rain or snow may inhibit PAP'scapacity to correctly measure a parkingspace.
• Do not use PAP if snow chains or a tempo-rary spare tire is being used.
• Do not use PAP if there are any objects pro-truding from the vehicle.
WARNING
• The front end of your vehicle may turn out toward oncoming traffic during the park-ing procedure.
• Objects located above the parking sen-sors' field of vision are not included whenPAP measures a parking space. For thisreason, PAP may turn into the parkingspace too soon. Avoid parking spaces ofthis type.
• The driver is always responsible for deter-mining if PAP has selected a suitableparking space.
Maintenance
Generic illustration. The PAP sensors are located in the front and rear bumpers
PAP uses the same sensors as the Park assist system, see Park assist – limitations (p. 234)).

* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.239
The sensors must be cleaned regularly to ensure that they work properly. Clean them with waterand a suitable car washing detergent.

Faults in the systemIf the information symbol illuminates and Park
assist syst Service required is shown on the
information display, this indicates that the system is not functioning properly and has been disen-gaged. Consult a trained and qualified Volvo serv-ice technician.
CAUTION
In certain circumstances, the park assist sys- tem may give unexpected warning signalsthat can be caused by external sound sourcesthat use the same ultrasound frequencies asthe system. This may include such things asthe horns of other vehicles, wet tires onasphalt, pneumatic brakes, motorcycleexhaust pipes, etc. This does not indicate afault in the system.

Rear Park Assist Camera (PAC) – introductionThe Park Assist Camera is designed to provide the driver with a view of the area behind the vehi-cle when backing up.
IntroductionPAC uses the display in the center console to show the area behind the car while you are back-ing up. PAC also shows guiding lines in the on-screen image to indicate the direction that the vehiclewill take as it moves rearward, which helps sim-plify parallel parking, backing into a tight space orwhen attaching a trailer to the vehicle. The images of vehicles in this section are generic and may not depict your specific model.
NOTE
A trailer hitch whose wiring is integrated with the vehicle's electrical system will be takeninto account when measuring the availablespace behind the vehicle.
WARNING
• PAC is designed to be a supplementary aid when parking the vehicle. It is not,however, intended to replace the driver

Ambient lighting conditions
The camera automatically monitors the ambient lighting conditions behind the vehicle and con-stantly adjusts sensitivity to light. This may causethe brightness and quality of the image on thescreen to vary slightly. Sensitivity to light isincreased in dark conditions or in bad weather,which may affect image quality. If the image on the screen seems too dark, brightness can be increased with the thumbwheel on the lighting panel.
NOTE
In order to function properly, the camera lens should always be kept clean. This is particu-larly important in bad weather. Keep the lensfree of dirt, ice or snow.

Guiding lines
The lines on the screen are projected as if they were a path on the ground behind the vehicleand are directly affected by the way in which thesteering wheel is turned. This enables the driverto see path the vehicle will take, even if he/sheturns the steering wheel while backing up.
NOTE
When backing up with a trailer, the trajectory lines show the path that the
vehicle will take,
not the trailer. Trajectory lines will not be displayed while zooming in.

"Wheel tracks"
The dashed line (1) indicates the clear zone of approximately 5 feet (1.5 m) behind the bumper.These lines also indicate the outermost limits thatany object (door mirrors, corners of the body, etc.)extends out from the vehicle, even when it turns. The "wheel tracks" (2) show where the wheels will roll and can extend up to approximately 10.5 ft (3.2 m) behind the bumper if there are noobjects in the way.

BLIS and CTA 13
are activated when the engine is
started; this is confirmed when the indicator lights on the front door panels flash once.
NOTE
The door panel indicator light illuminates on the side of the vehicle where the system hasdetected another vehicle. If your vehicle ispassed on both sides at the same time, bothlights will illuminate.
The system helps provide information about:
• Other vehicles in your door mirrors' "blind area"
• Vehicles that are about to pass your vehiclein the left and/or right lanes
• Cross Traffic Alert (CTA) is a supplemen-tary BLIS function
intended to detect vehi-
cles crossing behind your vehicle while youare backing up.
