To help avoid the risk of incorrect, reduced ordisabled functionality for driver support sys-tems using the camera or radar sensors:
• Volvo recommends that cracks, scratchesor stone chips on the windshield in front of the camera/radar sensor should
not
be repaired; in such cases, the entire windshield 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 isused, this may cause City Safety to func-tion improperly or not at all.
• Volvo recommends the use of only Genu-ine Volvo Replacement Windshields.
• When replacing windshield wipers, use the same type or ones approved by Volvo.
After the windshield has been replaced, thecamera/radar sensor will have to be recalibra-ted by a trained and qualified Volvo servicetechnician to help ensure proper function ofall of the vehicle's camera-/radar-based sys-tems.
MaintenanceIn order for City Safety to function properly, the area of the windshield must be kept free of dirt,ice, snow, etc.
