WARNING
PAP does not work in all situations but is designed merely as a supplementary aid. The driver always has the final responsibility for driving the car in a safe manner and forpaying attention to the surroundings andother road users approaching or passingwhile parking.
Types of parking situationsPAP can be used for the following different park- ing situations.
Parallel parking
The principal of parallel parking.
The 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 in the space by means
of driving forward/backward.
Using the
Park Out function, a parallel-parked
car can also be assisted by PAP to leave the parking space - see the heading "Leaving a park-ing space" in the section "Parking with Activeparking assistance".
Perpendicular parking
Principle for perpendicular parking.
The 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 and then positioned in the space by means of driving forward/backward.
NOTE
A perpendicular-parked car cannot be assis-
ted by the PAP Park Out function to leave a
parking space - the function must only be used for a parallel-parked car.

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.
Principle for parallel parking.
Principle for perpendicular parking.
1. Drive no faster than 30 km/h (20 mph) forparallel parking or 20 km/h (12 mph) for perpendicular parking.
2. Tap on the
Park In button in function view.
> PAP searches for a parking space and checks whether it is big enough.
3. Keep an eye on the centre display - be ready to stop the car when the graphic and mes- sage indicate that a suitable parking spacehas been found.
> A pop-up window is shown.
4. Select
Parallel parking or Perpendicular
parking and select reverse gear.

NOTE
PAP searches the area for parking, displays instructions and guides the car in on its pas-senger side. But if required the car can alsobe parked on the driver's side of the street: •Activate the direction indicator to the driver's side - then the system searchesfor a parking space on that side of thecar instead.
Reversing in to the parking space
Parallel.
Perpendicular.
1. Check that there is nothing behind.
2. Reverse slowly and carefully without touching
the steering wheel - and no faster than 7 km/h (4 mph).
> PAP will then steer the car into the park-ing space.
3. Keep an eye on the centre display - be pre- pared to stop the car when the graphics and message so request.
NOTE
• Keep your hands away from the steering wheel when the PAP function is acti-vated.
• Make sure that the steering wheel is nothindered in any way and can rotate freely.
• To achieve optimum results - wait untilthe steering wheel is fully turned beforestarting to drive backward/forward.

Positioning the car in the parking space
Parallel.
Perpendicular.
1. Move the gear selector into the D position,
wait until the steering wheel has been turned and drive slowly forward 2. Keep an eye on the centre display - be pre-
pared to stop the car when the graphics andmessage so request.
3. Select reverse gear and drive slowly back- wards.
4. Keep an eye on the centre display - be pre- pared to stop the car when the graphics andmessage so request.
The function is deactivated automatically and thegraphics and message show that parking is com-plete. It may be necessary for the driver to correctthe car

Limitations of Park Assist Pilot *
The Active parking assistance (Park Assist Pilot – PAP) function may have limitations in certainsituations.
Parking is discontinuedA parking sequence will be discontinued:
• if the driver moves the steering wheel
• if the car is driven too quickly - above 7 km/h (4 mph)
• if the driver presses
Cancel in the centre
display
• when the anti-lock brakes or the Electronic stability control are engaged - e.g. when awheel loses grip on a slippery road.
Where applicable, a message in the centre dis-play states the reason for a parking sequencebeing discontinued.
NOTE
Dirt, ice and snow covering the sensors will reduce their function and may prevent meas-urement.
IMPORTANT
Under certain circumstances, PAP is unable to find parking spaces - one reason for thismay be the fact that there is interference withthe sensors from external sound sourceswhich emit the same ultrasound frequenciesas those with which the system works. Examples of such sources include horns, wet tyres on asphalt, pneumatic brakes andexhaust noises from motorcycles etc.
Driver responsibilityThe driver should bear in mind that the PAP is an aid – not an infallible, fully-automatic function.The driver must therefore be prepared to inter-rupt a parking step. There are also a few details to bear in mind while parking, e.g.:
• PAP bases itself on the locations of vehiclesalready parked nearby - if they are inap-propriately parked, your own car's tyres andwheel rims may be damaged by contact withthe kerb.
• PAP is designed for parking on straightstreets - not sharp curves or bends. For thisreason, make sure the car is parallel to theparking space when PAP measures thespace. •
Parking spaces on narrow streets are notalways feasible, since the space required formanoeuvring may not be sufficient.
• Bear in mind that the front of the car mayswing out towards oncoming traffic whilebeing parked.
• Objects situated higher than the detectionareas of the sensors are not taken intoaccount when calculating the parkingmanoeuvre. This may cause PAP to turn intothe parking space too early, and hence suchparking spaces should be avoided.
• The driver is responsible for determiningwhether the space selected by PAP is suita-ble for parking.
• Use approved tyres 28
with the correct tyre
pressure - this affects the ability of PAP topark the car.
• Heavy rain or snow may cause the system tomeasure the parking space incorrectly.
• Do not use PAP if snow chains or a sparewheel are fitted.
• Do not use PAP if cargo items are protrudingfrom the car.
• Perpendicular parking spaces may be missedor offered unnecessarily if one parked car isprotruding more than other parked cars.

"Approved tyres" refers to tyres of the same type and make as those fitted new on delivery from the factory.

IMPORTANT
Changing to another approved wheel rim and/or tyre dimension may involve a changedtyre circumference, which means that thePAP system's parameters may then need tobe updated. Consult a workshop - an author-ised Volvo workshop is recommended.
Maintenance
