Adaptive Cruise Control – introductionACC is an optional system designed to assist the driver by maintaining a set speed or a settime interval to the vehicle ahead. It is primarilyintended for use on long straight roads in steadytraffic, such as on highways and other mainroads.
When the driver has set the desired speed and the time interval to the vehicle ahead, ACC func-tions as follows:
• If there are no other vehicles in the laneahead of you, your vehicle will travel at theset speed.
• If ACC's radar sensor detects a slower mov-ing vehicle in the lane ahead, the system willadapt your vehicle's speed to help maintainthe set time interval to the vehicle ahead.When there are no longer slower movingvehicles ahead, your vehicle will accelerate toresume the set speed.
If ACC is switched off completely or in standbymode and your vehicle comes too close toanother vehicle ahead, the driver will be warnedby the Distance Alert system (see Distance Alert– introduction (p. 199)).
WARNING
• Adaptive Cruise Control cannot cover all driving situations and traffic, weather androad conditions. The "Function" sectionprovides information about limitations thatthe driver must be aware of before usingthis feature.
• This system is designed to be a supple-mentary driving aid. It is not, however,intended to replace the driver's attentionand judgement. The driver is responsiblefor maintaining a safe distance and speedand must intervene if Adaptive CruiseControl does not maintain a suitablespeed or suitable distance to the vehicleahead.
• Maintenance of ACC components mayonly be performed by a trained and quali-fied Volvo technician.

BLIS * – Cross Traffic Alert (CTA)
Cross Traffic Alert (CTA) is a supplementary BLIS 12
function intended to detect vehicles
crossing behind your vehicle while you are back- ing up.
Park assist/CTA button
On vehicles equipped with the optional Park assist system (p. 233), Cross Traffic Alert (CTA)can be deactivated/reactivated by pressing thePark assist button on the center console. TheBLIS indicator lights on the front doors will flashwhen CTA is reactivated by pressing the button.
WARNING
• BLIS and CTA are information systems, NOT warning or safety systems and donot function in all situations.
• BLIS and CTA do not eliminate the needfor you to visually confirm the conditionsaround you, and the need for you to turnyour head and shoulders to make surethat you can safely change lanes or backup.
• As the driver, you have full responsibilityfor changing lanes/backing up in a safemanner.
When does CTA function
How CTA works
CTA supplements BLIS by warning the driver of crossing traffic behind your vehicle, for example,when backing out of a parking space. It is primarily designed to detect another vehicle but in certain cases may also detect pedestriansor smaller objects such as bicycles. CTA is only activated when the vehicle is backing up and is activated automatically when the gearselector is put in reverse.
• An audible signal indicates that CTA hasdetected something that is approaching fromthe side. The signal will come from either theleft or right audio system speakers, depend-ing on which the side of your vehicle theapproaching vehicle/object has beendetected.
• CTA also provides a warning by illuminatingthe BLIS indicator lights.
• An icon will also illuminate in the Park assistgraphic on the center console display.
LimitationsCTA has limitations in certain situations, forexample, the CTA sensors cannot "see" throughother parked vehicles or obstructions. The following are several examples where CTA's "field of vision" may initially be limited andapproaching vehicles cannot be detected untilthey are too close:
