Inflatable curtain The inflatable curtain, Inflatable Curtain (IC), helps to prevent the driver and passengers fromstriking their heads on the inside of the car dur-ing a collision.
The inflatable curtain is mounted along both sides of the headlining and helps protect thedriver and outer seat passengers of the car. The panels are labelled with IC AIRBAG.
A sufficiently violent collision trips the sensors and the inflatable curtain is inflated.
WARNING
Never hang or attach heavy items onto the handles in the roof. The hooks are onlydesigned for light coats and jackets (not forsolid objects such as umbrellas). Do not screw or install anything onto the car's headlining, door pillars or side panels. Thiscould compromise the intended protection.Volvo recommends only using Volvo genuineparts that are approved for fitting within theseareas.
WARNING
Leave 10 cm space between the load and the side windows if the car is loaded to above thetop edge of the door windows. Otherwise, theintended protection of the inflatable curtain,which is concealed in the headlining, may becompromised.
WARNING
The inflatable curtain is a supplement to the seatbelts. Always use a seatbelt.

Safety mode Safety mode is a protective state that is trig- gered when a collision may have damaged anyof the car's vital functions, such as the fuel lines,sensors for any of the safety systems, or thebrake system.
If the car has been involved in a collision, the textSafety mode See Owner's manual is shown
in the driver display together with the warning symbol. This means that the car has reducedfunctionality. If the car is set in safety mode, it is possible to try to reset the system and then start and move thecar from a dangerous position.
WARNING
Never attempt to repair your car or reset the electronics yourself if the car has been insafety mode. This could result in personalinjury or the car not functioning as normal.Volvo recommends that engaging an author-ised Volvo workshop to check and restore the car to normal status after
Safety mode See
Owner's manual has been shown.
WARNING
If the car is in safety mode it must not be towed. It must be transported from its loca-tion. Volvo recommends that it is transportedto an authorised Volvo workshop.

IMPORTANT
In certain situations, Pilot Assist steering assistance may have difficulty helping thedriver in the right way or it may be automati-cally deactivated - in which case, the use ofPilot Assist is not recommended. Examples ofsuch situations may be that: •the lane markings are worn, missing or cross each other.
• lane division is unclear, for example, whenthe lanes divide or merge or at exits or inthe event of multiple sets of markings.
• edges or other lines than lane markingsare present on or near the road, e.g.curbs, joints or repairs to the road sur-face, edges of barriers, roadside edges orstrong shadows.
• the lane is narrow or winding.
• the lane contains ridges or holes.
• weather conditions are poor, e.g. rain,snow or fog or slush or impaired viewwith poor light conditions, back-lighting,wet road surface etc.
The driver should also note that Pilot Assisthas the following limitations: • High kerbs, roadside barriers, temporary obstacles (traffic cones, safety barriers,etc.) are not detected. Alternatively, theymay be detected incorrectly as lane
markings, with a subsequent risk of con- tact between the car and such obstacles.The driver must ensure him/herself thatthe car is at a suitable distance from suchobstacles.
• The camera and radar sensor does nothave the capacity to detect all oncomingobjects and obstacles in traffic environ-ments, e.g. potholes, stationary obstaclesor objects which completely or partiallyblock the route.
• Pilot Assist does not "see" pedestrians,animals, etc.
• The recommended steering input is forcelimited, which means that it cannotalways help the driver to steer and keepthe car within the lane.
The driver always has the possibility of correcting or adjusting a steering intervention imposed byPilot Assist and can turn the steering wheel tothe desired position.
Steep roads and/or heavy loadBear in mind that Pilot Assist is primarilyintended for use when driving on level road surfa-ces. The function may have difficulty in keepingthe correct distance from the vehicle ahead whendriving on steep downhill slopes - in which case,be extra attentive and ready to brake. Do not usePilot Assist with a heavy load or with a trailer con-nected to the car.
Miscellaneous
•Off Road drive mode cannot be selected
when Pilot Assist is activated.
NOTE
The function uses the car's camera unit, which has some general limitations, see the"Limitations for camera unit" section.
NOTE
The function uses the car's radar unit, which has some general limitations, see the "Limita-tions for radar unit" section.

has the opportunity to avoid a collision via a steering manoeuvre. However, if City Safety anticipates that an evasive manoeuvre is not possible due to traffic in anadjacent lane, the function can assist the driverby automatically starting to brake at an earlierstage.
WARNING
City Safety's ability to anticipate a certain sit- uation is an aid, and does not work in all driv-ing situations or traffic, weather and road con-ditions. The driver always bears ultimate responsibility for ensuring that the vehicle is driven safelyand that applicable laws and road traffic regu-lations are followed.

Limitations of City Safety
The City Safety function may have limitations in certain situations.
Surroundings
Low objects
Low-hanging objects, e.g. a flag/pennant for pro- jecting load, or accessories such as auxiliarylamps and bull bars that are higher than the bon-net limit the function.
Skidding
On slippery road surfaces the braking distance is extended, which may reduce the capacity of CitySafety to avoid a collision. In such situations, theanti-lock brakes and the stability control ESC willgive the best possible braking force with main-tained stability.
Oncoming light
The visual warning signal in the windscreen may be difficult to notice in the event of strong sun-light, reflections, when sunglasses are beingworn or if the driver is not looking straight ahead.
Heat
In the event of high passenger compartment temperature caused by e.g. strong sunlight, thevisual warning signal in the windscreen may betemporarily disengaged.
The camera and radar unit's field of view
The camera's field of vision is limited, which is why pedestrians, large animals, cyclists and vehi- cles in some situations cannot be detected, orthey are detected later than anticipated. Dirty vehicles may be detected later than others and if it is dark, motorcycles may be detected lateor not at all. If a text message in the driver display indicates that the camera and radar unit is obstructed, CitySafety may be unable to detect pedestrians, largeanimals, cyclists, vehicles or road lines ahead ofthe car. This means that the functionality of CitySafety may be reduced. However, an error message is not shown in all situations where the windscreen sensors areobstructed. The driver must therefore take care tokeep the area of windscreen in front of the cam-era and radar unit clear.
IMPORTANT
Maintenance and replacement of City Safety components must only be performed by aworkshop - an authorised Volvo workshop isrecommended.
Driver intervention
Reversing
When your own car is reversing, City Safety is temporarily deactivated.

DRIVER SUPPORT

Low speed
City Safety is not activated at very low speeds - below 4 km/h (3 mph) - and the system there-fore does not intervene in situations where yourcar is approaching a vehicle ahead very slowly,e.g. when parking.
Active driver
Driver commands are always prioritised, which is why City Safety does not intervene or postponewarning/intervention in situations where thedriver is steering and accelerating in a decisivemanner, even if a collision is unavoidable. Active and aware driving behaviour can therefore delay a collision warning and intervention in orderto minimise unnecessary warnings.
Miscellaneous
WARNING
Warnings and brake interventions could be implemented late or not at all if a traffic situa-tion or external influences mean that the cam-era and radar unit cannot detect pedestrians,cyclists, large animals or vehicles correctly. For vehicles to be detected at night, their headlamps and rear lamp cluster must beswitched on and shining clearly. The camera and radar unit has a limited range for pedestrians and cyclists. The system canprovide effective warnings and brake interven-tions as long as the relative speed is below50 km/h (30 mph). For stationary or slow-moving vehicles, warnings and brake interven-tions are effective at vehicle speeds up to70 km/h (43 mph). Speed reduction for largeanimals is less than 15 km/h (9 mph) andcan be achieved at vehicle speeds above70 km/h (43 mph). The warning and brakeintervention for large animals is less effectiveat lower speeds. Warnings for stationary or slow-moving vehi- cles and large animals could be disengageddue to darkness or poor visibility. Warnings and brake interventions for pedes- trians and cyclists are deactivated at vehiclespeeds exceeding 70 km/h (43 mph). Do not place, stick or mount anything on the outside or inside of the windscreen in front ofor around the camera and radar unit — thiscan interfere with camera-dependent func-tions.
Objects, snow, ice or dirt in the area of the camera sensor may reduce its function, fullydeactivate it or give incorrect functionresponse.
NOTE
The function uses the car's camera unit, which has some general limitations, see the"Limitations for camera unit" section.
NOTE
The function uses the car's radar unit, which has some general limitations, see the "Limita-tions for radar unit" section.

Along the sides
Parking assistance side sensors are activated automatically when the engine is started. Theyare active at speeds below 10 km/h (6 mph). The measuring range starts approx. 30 cm from the sides. The acoustic signal for obstacles onthe sides comes from the side loudspeakers.
Forwards
NOTE: The illustration is schematic - details may vary depending on car model.
The front parking assistance sensors are acti- vated automatically when the engine is started.The front sensors are active at speedsbelow 10 km/h (6 mph). The measuring range starts approx. 0.8 metres in front of the car.
NOTE
Parking assistance is deactivated when the parking brake is applied or P mode is
selected in a car with an automatic gearbox.
IMPORTANT
When auxiliary lamps are fitted: Remember that these must not obscure the sensors - theauxiliary lamps may then be perceived as anobstacle.

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.
