WARNING
•It is advisable to read through all of the related articles pertaining to ACC (seethe list at the end of this article).
• Adaptive Cruise Control cannot cover alldriving situations and traffic, weather androad conditions.
• This system is designed to be a supple-mentary driving aid. It is not, however,intended to replace the driver's attentionand judgement. The driver is responsiblefor maintaining a safe distance and speedand must intervene if Adaptive CruiseControl does not maintain a suitablespeed or suitable distance to the vehicleahead.
• Maintenance of ACC components mayonly be performed by a trained and quali-fied Volvo technician.
OverviewThe distance to the vehicle ahead (in the samelane) is monitored by a radar sensor. Your vehi-cle's speed is regulated by accelerating andbraking. The brakes may emit a sound when theyare being modulated by the adaptive cruise con-trol system. This is normal.
WARNING
•
Adaptive Cruise Control is not a collision avoidance system. The driver is alwaysresponsible for applying the brakes if thesystem does not detect another vehicle.
• Adaptive Cruise Control does not react topeople or animals, or small vehicles suchas bicycles and motorcycles. It also doesnot react to slow moving, parked orapproaching vehicles, or stationaryobjects.
• Do not use Adaptive Cruise Control indemanding driving conditions such as citydriving or other heavy traffic situations, inslippery conditions, when there is a greatdeal of water or slush on the road, duringheavy rain or snow, in poor visibility, onwinding roads or on highway on- or off-ramps.

ACC must first be put in active mode before it can be started in order to regulate speed or aset time interval to the vehicle ahead.
Starting ACC (putting it in standby
mode)
Function buttons and symbols
–Press ◀ (2) or ▶ (3) to scroll to the ACC
(
) function. The symbol (4) will be dis-
played in the instrument panel.
> The symbol indicates that ACC has been
started and is in standby mode . In
standby mode, the vehicle will not main-
tain a set speed or a time interval to the vehicle ahead.
Activating ACC (putting it in active mode and setting a speed)
Before ACC can be put in active mode:
• The driver's seat belt must be buckled and the driver's door must be closed.
• There must be a vehicle ahead (a target vehi-cle) within a reasonable distance or yourvehicle's current speed must be at least9 mph (15 km/h).
–With the symbol displayed (ACC is in
standby mode), press the
button (1) on
the left-side steering wheel keypad.
> This puts ACC in active mode and sets the vehicle's current speed, which is indi- cated by digits in the center of the speed-ometer.

The
time interval to the vehi-
cle ahead will only be shown when two vehicles are dis-played.
A speed interval will also be indicated:
• The higher speed is the one set in ACC
• The lower one is the speed of the vehicle ahead (the target vehicle).

Deactivating/resuming Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
ACC can be put temporarily in standby mode and then reactivated.
Function buttons and symbols
To temporarily deactivate and put Adaptive Cruise Control in standby mode:
–Press the button (2).
> The
symbol in the instrument panel
will change colors from WHITE to GRAY and the set speed in the center of thespeedometer will change from BEIGE toGRAY.
WARNING
When ACC is in standby mode, the driver has to control the vehicle's speed and distance toa vehicle ahead. When ACC is in standby mode, the driver will be alerted if the distance to the vehicle aheadis too short by the Distance Alert function.See the article "Distance Alert" for additionalinformation.
Standby mode due to action by the driver
ACC is temporarily deactivated and put in standby mode if:
• the brakes are applied
• The gear selector is moved to
N
• the vehicle is driven faster than the setspeed for more than 1 minute.
In these cases, the driver will have to regulate thevehicle's speed. A temporary increase in speed, such as when passing another vehicle, does not affect the ACCset speed. The vehicle will return to the set speedwhen the accelerator pedal is released.

Changing Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) speed
ACC makes it possible to set various speeds.
Changing a set speed
Function buttons and symbols
–Change a set speed by pressing the (1)
or — (3) buttons briefly or by pressing and
holding them:
• Press briefly
: changes speed in
+/– 5 mph (+/– 5 km/h) increments. Each press changes the vehicle's speedby +/– 5 mph (+/– 5 km/h).
• Press and hold
: changes the speed
+/– 1 mph (+/– 1 km/h) at a time.Release the button when the set speedindicator (4) has moved to the desiredspeed. If speed is increased by pressing the accelerator pedal before the
button is pressed, the vehi-
cle's speed when the button is pressed will become the set speed assuming that the accel-erator pedal is still depressed when the button ispressed. A temporary increase in speed, such as when passing another vehicle, does not affect the ACCset speed. The vehicle will return to the set speedwhen the accelerator pedal is released. The Adaptive Cruise Control can follow another vehicle from a standstill up to 125 mph(200 km/h). Always observe posted speed limits. The lowest speed that can be set for ACC is
20 mph (30 km/h). However, ACC can monitor and react to the speed of the vehicle ahead downto a standstill. The highest speed that can be set/stored is approx. 125 mph (200 km/h). Always observeposted speed limits.

Setting an Adaptive Cruise Control time interval
ACC makes it possible to set various time inter- vals to the vehicle ahead.
Different time intervals to the vehicle ahead can be selectedand are shown in the instru-ment panel as 1–5 horizontalbars. The greater the number ofbars, the longer the time inter-val. One bar between the vehi-
cles represents a time interval of approximately1 second; 5 bars is approximately 3 seconds. The same symbol appears if Distance Alert is activated.
• If the symbol shows two vehicle's, ACC is actively following the vehicle ahead (a targetvehicle).
• If only one vehicle is displayed, ACC is
not
actively following another vehicle.

Increase the time interval
Distance/time indicator
–Press buttons (1) or (2) to reduce or increase the time interval.
> The distance/time indicator (3) shows the
current time interval.
In order to follow the vehicle ahead as smoothly as possible, ACC allows the time interval to varyconsiderably in certain situations. At low speeds,when the distance to the vehicle ahead is short,ACC increases the time interval slightly. • If ACC does not seem to react when it is put in active mode, this may be because the set time interval to the vehicle ahead does notallow an increase in speed.
• The higher the speed, the greater the dis-tance to the vehicle ahead for a given timeinterval.
• Only use time intervals permitted by localtraffic regulations.
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.

Passing Assistance with Adaptive Cruise Control or Pilot Assist
ACC or Pilot Assist can assist the driver when passing other vehicles.
How passing assistance worksWhen ACC or Pilot Assist is following another vehicle and the driver indicates that he/she isabout to pass that vehicle by using the left turnsignal, ACC or Pilot Assist will begin acceleratingtoward the vehicle ahead before your vehicle hasmoved into the passing lane. The function will then delay a speed reduction to avoid early braking as your vehicle approachesthe slower-moving vehicle. The function is active until your vehicle has passed the other vehicle.
WARNING
Be aware that this function may be activated in situations other than when passing a vehi-cle, such as if the turn signal is used to indi-cate a lane change or to indicate a turn. Thevehicle will accelerate briefly.

DRIVER SUPPORT
278sensor, the system may apply the brakes in your vehicle suddenly or not at all. Pilot Assist is designed to follow a vehicle ahead in the same traffic lane at a preset time intervalset by the driver. If the radar sensor does notdetect a vehicle ahead, the vehicle will insteadmaintain the speed set by the driver. This will alsobe the case if a vehicle ahead accelerates andexceeds the set speed.
• Pilot Assist can follow another vehicle from astandstill up to a speed of approx. 125 mph(200 km/h)
• Pilot Assist can provide steering assistancefrom very low speeds up to approx. 87 mph(140 km/h).
Never exceed posted speed limits.
WARNING
• Pilot Assist is not a collision avoidance system. The driver must react if the sys-tem does not detect another vehicle.
• Pilot Assist does not react to people, ani-mals, stationary objects, small vehicles(such as bicycles and motorcycles), lowtrailers and slow moving, parked orapproaching vehicles.
• Do not use Pilot Assist in demandingdriving conditions such as city driving orother heavy traffic situations, in areas withintersections, in slippery conditions, whenthere is a great deal of water or slush onthe road, during heavy rain or snow, inpoor visibility, on winding roads, on high-way on- or off-ramps or if the vehicle istowing a trailer, boat, etc.
NOTE
•Pilot Assist maintenance should only be carried out by a trained and qualifiedVolvo service technician.
• Pilot Assist regulates your vehicle'sspeed using the accelerator pedal andthe brakes. Please be aware that theremay be a faint sound from the brakeswhen the system is using them.
