Automatic standby mode
Pilot Assist is dependent on other systems, e.g. stability control/anti-skid ESC. If any of theseother systems stops working, Pilot Assist isswitched off automatically. In the event of automatic deactivation a signal will sound 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 Pilot Assist is uncertain whether the vehicle aheadis a stationary vehicle or an object, such as aspeed bump.
• the speed is below 5 km/h (3 mph) and thevehicle ahead turns off so that Pilot Assist nolonger has a vehicle to follow.
• speed is reduced to below 30 km/h(20 mph) - only applies to cars with manualgearbox.
• the driver's hands are not on the steeringwheel
• 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).
Reactivating Pilot Assist from the
standby mode
NOTE: The illustration is schematic - details may vary depending on car model.
–Press the steering wheel button (1).
> The speed is then set to the most recently stored speed.
NOTE
A marked speed increase may occur once the speed has been resumed by pressing steer- ing wheel button

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.

City Safety
City Safety uses visual, haptic and acoustic sig- nals to alert the driver of any pedestrians,cyclists, large animals and vehicles that appear.The car then brakes automatically unless thedriver him/herself acts within a reasonable time.
Location of the radar unit 14
.
City Safety can prevent a collision or reduce colli- sion speed. City Safety is an aid to assist a driver who is at risk of colliding with a pedestrian, large animal,cyclist or a vehicle. The City Safety function can help the driver to avoid a collision when driving in queues, e.g.when changes in the traffic ahead, combined witha lapse in attention, could lead to an incident. The function helps the driver by automaticallybraking the car in the event of an imminent riskof collision if the driver does not react in time bybraking and/or swerving. City Safety activates a short, sharp braking proce- dure, normally stopping the car just behind thevehicle in front. For most drivers this is well out-side normal driving style and may be perceived asuncomfortable. City Safety is activated in situations where the driver should have started braking earlier, whichis why it cannot help the driver in every situation. City Safety is designed to be activated as late as possible in order to avoid unnecessary interven-tion. The driver or passengers are not normally aware of City Safety - it only intervenes in a situationwhere a collision is immediately imminent. City Safety can avoid a collision with a vehicle ahead or a bicycle by reducing the speed of thecar by up to 50 km/h (30 mph). For a pedestrian,City Safety can reduce speed by up to 45 km/h(28 mph). If the speed difference is greater than 50 km/h (30 mph) or 45 km/h (28 mph) respectively, CitySafety's automatic braking cannot prevent a colli-sion but it can mitigate the consequences of acollision.In the event of a risk of a collision with a largeanimal, City Safety can reduce the car's speed byup to 15 km/h (9 mph). The braking function forlarge animals is primarily intended to reduce thecollision force at high speeds. Braking is mosteffective at speeds above 70 km/h (43 mph) andless effective at low speeds.

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.

Setting the warning distance for City Safety
City Safety is always activated, but it is possible to select the warning distance for the function.
NOTE
The City Safety function cannot be deacti- vated. It is activated automatically when theengine/electric operation is started andremains switched on until the engine/electricoperation is switched off.
The warning distance determines the sensitivity of the system and regulates the distance atwhich the visual, acoustic and haptic warningsshall be triggered. 1. Tap on
Settings in top view in the centre
display.
2. Press
My CarIntelliSafe.
3. Under
City Safety Warning, select Late,Normal or Early to set the desired warning
distance.
If the
Early setting produces too many warnings,
which could be perceived as irritating in certain situations, then use the
Normal or Late warning
distance. If warnings are perceived as being too frequent or disturbing then the warning distance can bereduced. This would lead to the system warning

Park Assist*
Parking assistance assists the driver when manoeuvring in tight spaces by indicating thedistance to obstacles by acoustic signals com-bined with graphics on the centre display.
Screen view showing obstacle zones and sensor sectors.
The centre display shows an overview of the rela- tionship between the car and detected obstacles. The highlighted sector indicates the location of the obstacle. The closer the car symbol is to ahighlighted sector box, the shorter the distancebetween the car and detected obstacle. The shorter the distance to the obstacle, the faster the signal sounds. Other sound from theaudio system is muted automatically. The acoustic signal for obstacles ahead and to the sides is active when the car is moving butstops after the car has been stationary for approx. 2 seconds. The acoustic signal for obsta-cles behind is also active when the car is station-ary. At a distance within 30 cm from an obstacle behind or in front of the car, the tone is constantand the active sensor's field closest to the carsymbol is filled. The volume of the parking assistance signal can be adjusted while the signal is sounding by means of the [
>II] knob on the centre console.
Adjustment can also be performed in the top view's
Settings menu option.
NOTE
• Acoustic warnings are only given for objects directly on the vehicle's route.
WARNING
•Parking assistance does not relinquish the driver's own responsibility duringparking.
• The sensors have blind spots whereobstacles cannot be detected.
• Be aware of e.g. people or animals nearthe car.
Backwards
NOTE: The illustration is schematic - details may vary depending on car model.
The sensors for reverse are activated if the car rolls backward without a gear engaged or whenthe gear lever is moved to reverse position. The measuring range starts approx. 1.5 metres behind the car. When reversing with a hitched trailer, parking assistance backward is deactivated automatically.
NOTE
When reversing with e.g. a trailer or bike car- rier on the towbar - without Volvo genuinetrailer wiring - parking assistance may need tobe switched off manually in order that thesensors do not react to them.

Limitations of Parking assistance *
The Parking assistance function may have limita- tions in certain situations.
NOTE
Since a towbar is configured with the car's electrical system, towbar protrusion isincluded when the function measures the dis-tance to an object behind the car.
IMPORTANT
Objects e.g. chains, thin glossy poles or low barriers may be in the "signal shadow" andare then temporarily not detected by the sen-sors - the pulsating tone may then unexpect-edly stop instead of changing over to theexpected constant tone. The sensors cannot detect high objects, such as projecting loading docks.
• In such situations, pay extra attention andmanoeuvre/reposition the car particularlyslowly or stop the current parkingmanoeuvre - there may be a high risk ofdamage to vehicles or other objects sinceinformation from the sensors is notalways reliable in such situations.
IMPORTANT
In certain conditions the parking assistance system may produce incorrect warning sig-nals that are caused by external soundsources that emit the same ultrasonic fre-quencies that the system works with. Examples of such sources include horns, wet tyres on asphalt, pneumatic brakes andexhaust noises from motorcycles, etc.
Maintenance
Location of the parking sensors 24
.
For parking assistance to work optimally, the parking assistance sensors must be cleaned reg-ularly with water and car shampoo.

Park Assist Pilot *
Active parking assistance (Park Assist Pilot - PAP) helps the driver to park in or leave a park-ing space.
PAP checks first if a space is sufficiently big and thereafter helps the driver to turn the steeringwheel and manoeuvre the car into the space. The centre display indicates with symbols, graph- ics and text the various operations to be carriedout and when to do so.
NOTE
The PAP function measures the space and steers the car - the driver's task is to:
• keep a close watch around the car
• follow the instructions in the centre dis-play
• change gear (reverse/forward)
• control and maintain a safe speed
• brake and stop.

Parking with Active parking assistance *
The Active parking assistance (Park Assist Pilot - PAP) helps the driver park in three steps. Thefunction can also help the driver to leave a park-ing space.
NOTE
The PAP function measures the space and steers the car - the driver's task is to:
• keep a close watch around the car
• follow the instructions in the centre dis-play
• change gear (reverse/forward)
• control and maintain a safe speed
• brake and stop.
PAP can be activated if the following criteria are met once the engine has been started:
• No trailer is attached to the car.
• Speed must be lower than 30 km/h(20 mph).
NOTE
The distance between the car and parking spaces should be 0.5-1.5 metres while PAPis searching for a parking space.
ParkingThe PAP function parks the car using the follow- ing steps:
1. A parking space is identified and measured.
2. The car is reversed into the space.
3. The car is positioned into the space - the
system may then request that the driver changes gear.
Finding and measuring parking spaces
The function can be activated in the centre display's functionview. It can also be accessed from the camera views.
