Adaptive Cruise Control – setting time interval
Setting a time interval
Controls and display
Decrease/increase time interval
The set time interval to vehicles ahead can be increased by pressing
and decreased by
pressing
. The current time interval is shown
briefly in the display following adjustment. Different time intervals can be selected and are shown in the instrument panel
2
as 1–5 hori-
zontal bars. The greater the number of bars, the longer thetime interval. One bar repre-sents a time interval of approxi-
mately 1 second; 5 bars is approximately3 seconds.
To set/change a time interval:
• Press the
/ buttons (3).
At low speeds, when the distance to the vehicle ahead is short, ACC increases the time intervalslightly. In order to follow the vehicle ahead assmoothly as possible, ACC allows the time inter-val to vary considerably in certain situations.
WARNING
• Only use a time interval that is suitable in current traffic conditions.
• A short time interval gives the driver lim-ited reaction time if an unexpected situa-tion occurs in traffic.

WARNING
The vehicle may accelerate quickly after has been pressed if its current speed is con- siderably lower than the set speed.
Standby mode due to action by the driver
ACC is temporarily deactivated and put in standby mode:• if the brakes are applied
• if the gear selector is moved to
N
• if the driver drives faster than the set speed for more than
1 minute.
In this happens, the driver will have to regulate
the vehicle's speed.
NOTE
If the accelerator pedal is only depressed for a short time, such as when passing anothervehicle, ACC is deactivated temporarily and isreactivated when the pedal is released.
Automatic standby modeACC is linked to other systems such as the sta- bility system. If this system is not functioningproperly, ACC will switch off automatically. In the event of automatic deactivation, an audible signal will sound and the message
Cruise control Cancelled
is shown in the instrument
panel. The driver must then intervene and adapt the vehicle's speed to the surrounding traffic andregulate the distance to the vehicle ahead. An automatic switch to standby mode may be caused if:
• engine speed (rpm) is too high/low
• The driver's door is opened
• The driver unbuckles his/her seat belt
• the vehicle's speed goes below 18 mph(30 km/h)
• the wheels lose traction
• brake temperature is high
• the radar sensor is obstructed by, for exam-ple, wet snow or rain.
Resuming the set speedIf ACC is in standby mode, it can be reactivated by pressing the
button on the steering wheel
keypad. The vehicle will return to the most recently set speed.
WARNING
The vehicle may accelerate quickly after has been pressed if its current speed is con- siderably lower than the set speed.
Turning ACC off completely
Controls and display
Resume previous settings.
Off/On/Standby mode
• From standby mode, press (2)
once.
• From active mode, press (2)
twice.
The set speed and time interval are then cleared from the system's memory and cannot be resumed by pressing (1)
.

an audible signalThe vehicle is at a standstill and ACC will release the brakes before the parking brake engages to keep the vehicle stopped but a problem with the parking brake means that the vehicle may begin to roll. The driver will have to apply the brakes. The message will remain in the display and the audible signal will continue until the driver applies the brakes or presses the accelerator pedal.
-Below 30 km/h Only fol- lowingThis is displayed if you try to activate ACC at speeds below approx. 18 mph (30 km/h) without a vehicle ahead within range (approx. 100 ft/30 meters).

Adaptive Cruise Control – troubleshooting
If the message Radar blocked See manual is
displayed, this means that the radar signals from the sensor have been obstructed and that a vehi- cle ahead cannot be detected. This, in turn, means that the functions of the ACC, Distance Alert, and Collision Warning Sys-
tem with Auto-brake and Pedestrian Detectionwill not function. The table lists possible causes for this message being displayed, and suitable actions.
CauseAction
The surface of the radar in the grille is dirty or obstructed in some way.Clean the radar surface, or remove the object causing the obstruction.
Heavy rain or snow is interfering with the radar signals.No action possible. Heavy precipitation may affect the function of the radar.
Swirling water or snow from the surface of the road may interfere with the radar signals.No action possible. A very wet or snow-covered road surface may affect the function of the radar.
The surface of the radar is clean but the message remains in the display.Wait a short time. It may take several minutes for the radar to detect that it is no longer obstructed.

City Safety – function
Function
Location of the laser sensor in the windshield 5
City Safety
™ monitors traffic ahead of you using
a laser sensor mounted in the upper section of the windshield. If a collision is imminent, City Safety ™ will automatically apply the brakes,
which may feel like hard braking. If the difference in speed between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead is more than approximately 9 mph (15 km/h), City Safety ™ alone cannot
prevent a collision from taking place. The driver must apply the brakes to help avoid a collision orreduce its effect. When the function activates and applies the brakes, a message will appear in the information display to indicate that the system is/has beenactive.
NOTE
•
When City Safety
™ applies the brakes,
the brake lights will illuminate.
• In cases where City Safety
™ has stopped
the vehicle, the system will then release the brakes. The driver must apply thebrakes to keep the vehicle at a standstill.

NOTE
•
Keep the windshield in front of the laser sensor free of ice, snow, dirt, etc., see CitySafety – function (p. 196).
• 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 laser sensor.

City Safety – troubleshooting
TroubleshootingIf Windscreen Sensors blocked appears in the
information display, this indicates that the City Safety ™ laser sensor is obstructed in some way
and cannot detect vehicles ahead of you, which means that the system is not functioning. However, this message will not be displayed in all situations in which the sensor is obstructed. Forthis reason, the driver must ensure that the areaof the windshield in front of the sensor is alwayskept clean. The following table shows some of the situations that can cause the message to be displayed andsuggested actions.
CauseAction
The area of the windshield in front of the sensor isdirty or covered by ice orsnow.Clean the wind- shield or removethe ice/snow.
The laser sensor's field of view is obstructed.Remove the obstruction.
NOTE
If a crack, scratch or stone chip should occur in the section of the windshield in front thelaser sensor, contact a trained and qualifiedVolvo service technician to repair or replacethe windshield (see the illustration showingthe location of the sensor in City Safety –function (p. 196)). Failing to do so may result in reduced City Safety ™ functionality.
To help prevent limited or reduced functional- ity, please also observe the following:
• Volvo recommends that cracks, scratchesor stone chips on the windshield in front of the laser sensor
should not be
repaired; in such cases, the entire wind- shield should be replaced.
• Before the windshield is replaced, con-tact a Volvo retailer to ensure that thecorrect windshield is ordered and instal-led. If the wrong type of windshield is used, this may cause City Safety
™ to
function improperly or not at all. Volvo recommends the use of only GenuineVolvo Replacement Windshields.
• When replacing windshield wipers, usethe same type or ones approved by Volvo.
