If the camera and radar sensor cannot detect thelane's side marker lines or a vehicle ahead, PilotAssist goes into standby mode.
When Pilot Assist is in standby mode and yourvehicle comes too close to the vehicle ahead, thedriver will be alerted by the Distance Alert func-tion.

WARNING
•Pilot Assist is designed to be a supple-mentary driving aid and cannot cover alldriving situations, traffic, weather and/orroad conditions.
•The driver should be familiar with all ofthe information in this article regardingPilot Assist, including its limitations.
•Pilot Assist is not intended to replace thedriver's attention and judgement.
•Pilot Assist must only be used wherethere are clearly visible traffic lane sidemarker lines on both sides of the currenttraffic lane. In other circumstances thereis an increased risk of collision with sur-rounding obstacles that are not detectedby the system.
•The driver is always responsible for steer-ing the vehicle and maintaining a suitablespeed and distance to the vehicle aheadand must intervene if necessary, even ifPilot Assist is being used.
Pilot Assist is designed to regulate speedsmoothly but in situations calling for fast braking,the driver must apply the brakes. This applies tosituations where there are considerable differen-ces in speed or if the vehicle ahead brakes sud-denly. Due to the limitations of the camera andradar sensor, the system may apply the brakes inyour vehicle suddenly or not at all.
•The default speed for Pilot Assist is preset toapprox. 30 mph (50 km/h) and cannot bechanged. If the vehicle ahead increasesspeed to over 30 mph (50 km/h) and pullsaway from your vehicle, Pilot Assist will gointo standby mode.

NOTE
•Pilot Assist maintenance should only becarried out by a trained and qualifiedVolvo service technician.
•Pilot Assist regulates your vehicle'sspeed using the accelerator pedal andthe brakes. Please be aware that theremay be a faint sound from the brakeswhen the system is using them.
WARNING
•Pilot Assist is not a collision avoidancesystem. The driver must react if the sys-tem does not detect another vehicle.
•Pilot Assist does not react to people, ani-mals, stationary objects, small vehicles(such as bicycles and motorcycles), lowtrailers and slow moving, parked orapproaching vehicles.
•Do not use Pilot Assist in demandingdriving conditions such as city driving orother heavy traffic situations, in slipperyconditions, when there is a great deal ofwater or slush on the road, during heavyrain or snow, in poor visibility, on windingroads or on highway on- or off-ramps.

This applies to situationswhere there are considerable differences inspeed or if the vehicle ahead brakes suddenly.Due to the limitations of the camera and radarsensor, the system may apply the brakes in yourvehicle suddenly or not at all.
Pilot Assist is designed to follow a vehicle aheadin the same traffic lane at a preset time intervalset by the driver. If the radar sensor does notdetect a vehicle ahead, the vehicle will insteadmaintain the speed set by the driver. This will alsobe the case if a vehicle ahead accelerates andexceeds the set speed.
•Pilot Assist can follow another vehicle from astandstill up to a speed of approx. 125 mph(200 km/h)
•Pilot Assist can provide steering assistancefrom very low speeds up to approx. 87 mph(140 km/h).
Never exceed posted speed limits.
