Park assist lines and fields for the Park Assist Camera *
The Park Assist Camera indicates the position of the car in relation to its surroundings by display-ing lines on the camera image.
Park assist lines
Examples of how the park assist lines can be displayed for the driver.
Park assist lines show the intended route for the car's external dimensions with the current steer-ing wheel angle - this facilitates parallel parking,reversing into tight spaces and when connectinga trailer. The lines on the screen are projected as if they were at ground level behind the car and responddirectly to steering wheel movements, showingthe driver the path the car will take - also whenthe car is turning. These park assist lines include the car's mostprotruding parts, e.g. towbar, door mirrors andcorners.
NOTE
Park assist lines are not shown when zoom- ing in.
NOTE
•
When reversing with a trailer which is not connected electrically to the car, the lines on the display show the route the
car will
take - not the trailer.
• The screen shows no lines when a trailer is connected electrically to the car's elec-trical system.
IMPORTANT
Remember that when rear camera view is selected, the centre display only shows thearea behind the car. Keep an eye on the sidesand front of the car when turning the steeringwheel while reversing. The same applies vice versa - note what hap- pens to the rear parts of the car when thefront camera view is selected. Note that the guide lines show the
shortest
route. Therefore, pay extra attention to the car's sides so that they do not go against/over something when the steering wheel isturned when driving forward or that the frontsweeps against/over something when thesteering wheel is turned when reversing.

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.

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.

Alcohol lock *
The function of the alcohol lock is to prevent the car from being driven by individuals under theinfluence of alcohol. Before the engine can bestarted the driver must take a breath test thatverifies that he/she is not under the influence ofalcohol. Alcohol lock calibration takes place inaccordance with each market's limit value inforce for driving legally.
The car has an interface for the electrical con- nection of the different makes and models ofalcohol lock recommended by Volvo. The inter-face facilitates alcohol lock connection, and givesthe option of an integrated function includingmessages related to the alcohol lock in the car'smain display. For information about a specificalcohol lock, please refer to its owner's manual.
WARNING
The alcohol lock is an aid and does not exempt the driver from responsibility. It isalways the responsibility of the driver to besober and to drive the car safely.
Bypass of the alcohol lock *
In the event of an emergency situation or the alcohol lock is out of order, it is possible tobypass the alcohol lock in order to drive the car.
For deactivation via the alcohol lock, see the sep- arate instructions for that specific lock. Activating the bypass function (Bypass)
NOTE
All bypass activation is logged and saved in the memory in the alcohol lock's control unit.It is not possible to undo a bypass.
The message, Blow into alcolock Bypass
instead?, is shown in the screen:
–Select Bypass by pressing once on the O
button on the steering wheel's right-hand keypad.
> The alcohol lock is now bypassed and the car can be started.
The number of bypasses possible before service is required is selected during alcohol lock instal-lation.

Gearbox
The gearbox is part of the car's driveline (power transmission) between engine and drive wheels.The function of the gearbox is to change thegear ratio depending on speed and powerrequirements.
There are two main types of gearbox, manual and automatic. The manual gearbox has six gears. The automatic gearbox can have either eight gears or six gearsdepending on which engine the car is equippedwith. The number of gear changes means thatthe engine's torque and power range can beused effectively. It is also possible to select gears manually with the automatic gearbox. The driver display respec-tively shows which gear or gear position is cur-rently in use.
IMPORTANT
To prevent damage to any drive system com- ponents, the working temperature of thegearbox is checked. If there is a risk of over-heating, a warning symbol illuminates in thedriver display and a text message is shown -follow the recommendation given.
Symbols in the driver displayIf a fault should occur in the gearbox, the driver display shows a symbol and a message.

Gear selector inhibitorThe gear selector inhibitor prevents accidental changing between different gear positions in anautomatic gearbox.
There are two different types of gear selector inhibitor - mechanical and automatic.
Mechanical gear selector inhibitor
The gear selector can be moved forward and back freely between N and D. Other positions are
locked with a latch that is released with the inhib- itor button on the gear selector. With the inhibitor button depressed the lever can be moved forwards or backwards between P, R ,
N and D.
Automatic gear selector inhibitorThe automatic gear selector inhibitor has special safety systems.
From park position - P
To be able to move the gear selector from the P
position, the brake pedal must be depressed and the ignition position must be II.
From neutral position - N
If the gear selector is in the N position and the
car has been stationary for at least 3 seconds (irrespective of whether the engine is running)then the gear selector is locked. To be able to move the gear selector from the N
position to another gear position, the brake pedal must be depressed and the ignition position must be II.
Deactivate automatic gear selector
inhibitor
If the car cannot be driven, e.g. due to a dis- charged battery, the gear selector must be moved to the
N position so that the car can be
moved.
Lift the rubber mat in the compartment in front of the gear selector. Locate the holewith a spring-loaded button in the bottom ofthe compartment.
Press a small screwdriver into the hole and hold.
Move the gear selector to position N and
