Deactivating/activating the adaptive cruise control *
The adaptive cruise control (Adaptive Cruise Control - ACC) can be temporarily deactivatedso that it is set in the standby mode and canlater be reactivated.
Deactivate Adaptive Cruise Control and set it in standby mode
NOTE: The illustration is schematic - details may vary depending on car model.
To temporarily switch off Adaptive Cruise Control and set it in standby mode:
–Press the steering wheel button (2).
> The
symbol on the driver display
changes colour from WHITE to GREY and the stored speed in the centre of thespeedometer changes from BEIGE toGREY. In standby mode, the driver must him/herselfcontrol both speed and distance. When the adaptive cruise control is in standby mode and the car drives too close to a vehicleahead, the driver is warned about the short dis-tance by the Distance Warning function instead(see reference to the heading "Distance Warn-ing" at the end of this section).
Standby mode on driver intervention
The adaptive cruise control is temporarily deacti- vated and set in standby mode if:
• the foot brake is used
• the gear selector is moved to
N position.
• the driver maintains a speed higher than thestored speed for longer than 1 minute.
• the clutch pedal is depressed for approx. 1minute - applies to cars with manual gearbox.
In this situation, the driver must intervene andadapt the speed and distance to the vehicleahead. A temporary increase in speed with the accelera- tor pedal, e.g. during overtaking, does not affectthe setting - the car returns to the last storedspeed when the accelerator pedal is released.
Automatic standby mode
Adaptive cruise control is dependent on other systems, e.g. stability control/anti-skid ESC. If anyof these systems stops working, adaptive cruisecontrol is switched off automatically. In the event of automatic deactivation a signal willsound and a message is shown in the driver dis-play. The driver must then intervene and adaptthe speed and distance to the vehicle ahead. Automatic deactivation may occur if:
• the speed is below 5 km/h (3 mph) and ACC is uncertain whether the vehicle ahead is astationary vehicle or an object, such as aspeed bump.
• the speed is below 5 km/h (3 mph) and thevehicle ahead turns off so that ACC nolonger has a vehicle to follow.
• speed is reduced to below 30 km/h(20 mph) - only applies to cars with manualgearbox.
• the driver opens the door
• the driver takes off the seatbelt
• engine speed is too low/high
• wheels lose traction
• brake temperature is high
• the parking brake is applied
• the camera and radar unit is covered by e.g.snow or heavy rainfall (camera lens/radiowaves are blocked).

–Activate the direction indicator. Use the left direction indicator in a car with the steering wheel on the left, or the rightdirection indicator in a car with the steeringwheel on the right.
> Overtaking assistance is started.
LimitationsWhen using Overtaking Assistance the driver should be prepared for sudden changes in condi-tions. In some conditions Overtaking Assistancecan cause unwanted acceleration. Some situations should be avoided for this rea- son. Examples of such situations are:
• the car is approaching an exit road in orderto turn off in the same direction that is nor-mally used for overtaking
• the vehicle in front slows before your car hasentered the overtaking lane
• traffic in the overtaking lane is slowing
• a car designed for right-hand traffic is beingdriven in a country with left-hand traffic (orvice versa).
Situations of this kind can be avoided by tempo-rarily setting ACC or Pilot Assist in standby mode.

Change of target and automatic braking with the Adaptive CruiseControl
In combination with automatic gearbox, the adaptive cruise control (Adaptive Cruise Control- ACC ) has functionality for change of targetand braking at certain speeds.
Change of target
If the target vehicle in front suddenly turns then there may be stationary traffic in front.
When the adaptive cruise control is following another vehicle at speeds below 30 km/h
(20 mph) and the target is changed from a mov- ing vehicle to a stationary vehicle, the adaptivecruise control will brake for the stationary vehicle.
WARNING
When the adaptive cruise control is following another vehicle at speeds in excess of
approx. 30 km/h (20 mph) and the target is changed from a moving vehicle to a stationaryvehicle, the adaptive cruise control will ignorethe stationary vehicle and instead select thestored speed.
• The driver must then intervene him/ herself and brake.
Automatic standby mode with change of target
The adaptive cruise control is disengaged and set in standby mode: • when the speed is below 5 km/h (3 mph) and the adaptive cruise control is uncertainwhether the target object is a stationary vehi-cle or some other object, such as a speedbump.
• when the speed is below 5 km/h (3 mph)and the vehicle ahead turns off so the adap-tive cruise control no longer has a vehicle tofollow.
Automatic brakingFor shorter stops in connection with inching inslow traffic or at traffic lights driving is automati-cally resumed if the stops do not exceed about3 seconds - if it takes longer before the car in

WARNING
Pilot Assist is an aid which cannot handle all traffic, weather and road conditions. The driver must always be observant with regard to the prevailing traffic conditions andintervene if Pilot Assist does not provide suit-able steering assistance or maintain a suita-ble speed or suitable time interval. Read all the sections about this function in the owner's manual in order to learn about itslimitations, of which the driver should beaware before the function is used. Pilot Assist must only be used if there are clear lane lines painted on the road surfaceon each side of the lane. All other useinvolves increased risk of contact with sur-rounding obstacles that are not detected bythe function. The driver always bears responsibility for how the car is controlled as well as for maintainingthe correct distance and speed, even whenPilot Assist is being used.
Pilot Assist regulates the speed with acceleration and braking. It is normal for the brakes to emit alow sound when they are being used to adjustthe speed. Pilot Assist attempts to regulate the speed smoothly. In situations that demand sudden brak-ing the driver must brake himself/herself. Thisapplies in case of large speed differences or ifthe vehicle in front brakes suddenly. Due to the limitations of the camera and radar unit, brakingmay come unexpectedly or not at all. Pilot Assist aims to follow the vehicle ahead in the same lane at a time interval set by the driver.If the radar unit cannot see any vehicle in frontthen the car will instead maintain the speed setand stored by the driver. This also takes place ifthe speed of the vehicle ahead increases andexceeds the stored speed. The following applies for cars with automatic gearbox:
• Pilot Assist can follow another vehicle atspeeds from 0 km/h up to 200 km/h(125 mph).
• Pilot Assist can give steering assistance fromalmost stationary up to 140 km/h (87 mph).
The following applies for cars with manual gear-box: • Pilot Assist can follow another vehicle at speeds from 30 km/h (20 mph) up to200 km/h (125 mph).
• Pilot Assist can give steering assistance from30 km/h (20 mph) up to 140 km/h(87 mph).
WARNING
Pilot Assist is not a collision avoidance sys- tem. The driver must intervene if the systemdoes not detect a vehicle in front. Pilot Assist does not brake for people, ani- mals, objects, small vehicles (e.g. cycles andmotorcycles), low trailers as well as oncoming,slow or stationary vehicles. Do not use Pilot Assist, for example, in city traffic, at junctions, on slippery surfaces, witha lot of water or slush on the road, in heavyrain/snow, in poor visibility, on winding roads,on slip roads, or with a trailer connected tothe car.
IMPORTANT
Maintenance of Pilot Assist components must only be performed at a workshop - an author-ised Volvo workshop is recommended.

Deactivating/activating the Pilot Assist*
Pilot Assist can be temporarily deactivated so that it is set in the standby mode and can bereactivated later.
Deactivating and setting Pilot Assist in
standby mode
NOTE: The illustration is schematic - details may vary depending on car model.
To temporarily switch off Pilot Assist and set it in standby mode:
–Press the steering wheel button (2).
> Pilot Assist is set in standby mode - the symbol (8) in the driver display changes colour from WHITE to GREY and thestored speed in the centre of the speed-ometer changes from BEIGE to GREY.
...or...
–Press ◀ (3).
> Pilot Assist is switched off and changes to the adaptive cruise control in active mode.
In standby mode, the driver is no longer given anydriver steering recommendations and must con-trol both speed and distance him/herself. When Pilot Assist is in standby mode and the car drives too close to a vehicle ahead, the driver iswarned about the short distance by the DistanceWarning function instead (see reference to theheading "Distance Warning" at the end of thissection).
Standby mode on driver intervention
Pilot Assist is temporarily deactivated and set in standby mode if:
• the foot brake is used
• the gear selector is moved to
N position.
• the direction indicators are used for longerthan 1 minute .
• the driver maintains a speed higher than thestored speed for longer than 1 minute.
• the clutch pedal is depressed forapprox. 1 minute - applies to cars with man-ual gearbox.
A temporary increase in speed with the accelera-tor pedal, e.g. during overtaking, does not affectthe setting - the car returns to the last storedspeed when the accelerator pedal is released. When the direction indicators are used, PilotAssist steering assistance is temporarily disen-gaged. When this is no longer the case, steeringassistance is automatically reactivated if thelane's side markings can still be detected.

Change of target and automatic braking with Pilot Assist *
In combination with automatic gearbox, Pilot Assist has functionality for change of target and braking at certain speeds.
Change of target
If the target vehicle in front suddenly turns then there may be stationary traffic in front.
When Pilot Assist is following another vehicle at speeds below 30 km/h (20 mph) and changes
target from a moving to a stationary vehicle, Pilot Assist will slow down for the stationary vehicle.
WARNING
When Pilot Assist is following another vehicle at speeds in excess of approx. 30 km/h
(20 mph) and the target is changed from a moving vehicle to a stationary vehicle, PilotAssist will ignore the stationary vehicle andinstead select the stored speed.
• The driver must then intervene him/ herself and brake.
Automatic standby mode with change of target
Pilot Assist is disengaged and set in standby mode: •when the speed is below 5 km/h (3 mph) and Pilot Assist is uncertain whether the tar-get object is a stationary vehicle or someother object, e.g. a speed bump.
• when the speed is below 5 km/h (3 mph)and the vehicle in front turns off so the PilotAssist no longer has a vehicle to follow.
Automatic brakingFor shorter stops in connection with inching for-ward in slow traffic or at traffic lights, driving isautomatically resumed if the stops do not exceedabout 3 seconds - if it takes longer before thecar in front starts moving again then the PilotAssist is set in standby mode with automaticbraking.
–Pilot Assist is reactivated in the following way:
• Press the steering wheel button
.
• Depress the accelerator pedal.
> Pilot Assist resumes following the vehicle ahead if it starts moving forward within 6 seconds.
NOTE
Pilot Assist can hold the car stationary for a maximum of 5 minutes - then the parkingbrake is applied and the function is disen-gaged. Before Pilot Assist can be reactivated, the parking brake must be released.

Auto Brake
The automatic brake function is activated last. If in this situation the driver has not yet started to take evasive action and the risk of collision isimminent then the automatic braking function isdeployed - this takes place irrespective ofwhether or not the driver brakes. Braking thentakes place with full brake force in order toreduce collision speed, or with limited brake forceif it is sufficient to avoid a collision. In connection with automatic braking the seatbelt tensioner may also be activated. For more infor-mation see the "Seatbelt tensioner" section. In some situations, the action of Auto-brake may begin with light braking and then progress to fullbrake action. When City Safety has prevented a collision with a stationary object, the car remains stationary inanticipation of positive action by the driver. If thecar has been braked to avoid collision with aslower vehicle in front, its speed is reduced tomatch that of the vehicle in front.
NOTE
On cars with manual gearbox, the engine stops when the Auto-brake function has stop-ped the car, unless the driver has managed todepress the clutch pedal beforehand.
The driver can always interrupt a braking inter- vention by firmly depressing the acceleratorpedal.
NOTE
When City Safety™ brakes, the brake lights
come on.
When City Safety is activated and brakes the vehicle, the driver display shows a text messageto the effect that the function is/has been active.
WARNING
City Safety must not be used as an excuse for the driver to change his/her driving style. Ifthe driver relies solely on City Safety to do thebraking, there might be a risk of a collisionsooner or later.
