Examples of limitations:
• Dirt, ice and snow covering the sensors may reduce functionality and prevent the systemfrom providing warnings.
• The BLIS function is automatically deacti-vated if a trailer, bicycle holder or similar isconnected to the vehicle's electrical system.
• For BLIS to function optimally, bicycle hold-ers, luggage racks or similar should not bemounted on the vehicle's towbar.

CTA 90
functionality may be reduced in certain
situations.
CTA does not function optimally in all situations and has certain limitations. The CTA sensors, forexample, cannot "see" through other parkedvehicles or objects blocking the vehicle. Below are a few examples of situations in which CTA's field of vision may be initially limited andapproaching vehicles may therefore not bedetected until they are very close to your vehicle:
The vehicle is parked very far into a parking space.
In a diagonal parking space, CTA may be completely "blind" on one side of your vehicle.
CTA's blind zone.
CTA's field of vision.
However, as you back your vehicle slowly out of a parking space, CTA's field of vision changes inrelation to the obstructing vehicle/object and itsblind zone is reduced.

Recommended maintenance forCross Traffic Alert
• For optimal performance, it is important to keep the areas in front of the sensors clean.
• Do not attach any objects, tape or decals tothe surface of the sensors.
Keep this area clean (on both the left and right sides of the vehicle) 91

The CTA sensors are located on the inside of each of the rear fenders/bumpers and are also used by the BLIS 92
and Rear Collision Warning
functions.
CAUTION
Repair of BLIS and CTA components or repainting of the bumper may only be per-formed by a workshop – an authorized Volvoworkshop is recommended.

Driver Alert Control limitations
Driver Alert Control (DAC) functionality may be reduced in certain situations.
In certain situations, the system may provide a warning even if it has not detected a change indriving behavior, e.g.:
• in strong crosswinds
• on grooved road surfaces.
WARNING
In certain cases, driving behavior might not be affected despite the driver's fatigue – whenusing the Pilot Assist function – resulting inthe driver not getting a warning from DAC. It is therefore very important to always stop and take a break at the slightest sign of fati-gue, regardless of whether the DAC functionhas issued a warning or not.
NOTE
The function uses the vehicle's camera unit, which has some general limitations – see thesection "Camera unit limitations".

Lane Keeping Aid
Lane Keeping Aid (LKA 106
) is designed to
actively steer the vehicle on freeways, highways and other major roads to help the driver reducethe risk of the vehicle unintentionally veering outof the lane.
Lake Keeping Assistance steers the vehicle back into the lane and/or alerts the driver using vibra-tions in the steering wheel. Lane Keeping Aid is active at speeds between 65-200 km/h (40-125 mph) on roads withclearly visible traffic lane marker lines. On narrow roads, the function may be unavailable and go into standby mode. The function willbecome available again when the road becomessufficiently wide.
A camera monitors the road/traffic lane's marker lines.

Steering assistance at risk ofcollision
The
Collision avoidance assistance function
is intended to help the driver reduce the risk of the vehicle inadvertently veering from the trafficlane and/or colliding with another vehicle orobstacle by actively steering the vehicle backinto the lane and/or swerving out of the way.
Collision avoidance assistance consists of
three sub-functions:
• Run-Off Mitigation with steering assistance
• Steering assistance during collision risks from oncoming traffic
• Steering assistance during collision risks from behind
*
After the system has automatically intervened, this text message will appear in the instrumentpanel:
•

NOTE
It is always the driver who must decide how much the vehicle should be in control – thevehicle can never take command.

Run-Off Mitigation with steeringassistance
This sub-function is intended to help reduce the risk of the vehicle inadvertently running off theroad by actively steering the vehicle back ontothe road.
The function is active at speeds between 65-140 km/h (40-87 mph) on roads with clearlyvisible traffic lane markings/lines. The system uses a camera to monitor the edges of the road and the painted side marker lines. Ifthe vehicle is about to cross the edge of the road, the function will attempt to steer the vehicle back onto the road. If this is not sufficient to keep the vehicle on the road, the brakes will also be applied. However, the function will not provide either
steering assistance or braking if the turn signal is used. The function will also not be activated if it detects that the driver is actively operating thevehicle. After the system has automatically intervened, this text message will appear in the instrumentpanel:
•
Collision avoidance assistance –Automatic intervention
WARNING
• The "Steering assistance at risk of run- off" subfunction is supplementary driversupport intended to help improve drivingsafety – it cannot handle all situations inall traffic, weather and road conditions.
• The function cannot detect barriers, railsor similar obstacles at the side of theroad.
• "Steering assistance at risk of run-off" isnot a substitute for the driver's attentionand judgment. The driver is alwaysresponsible for ensuring the vehicle isdriven in a safe manner, at the appropri-ate speed, with an appropriate distance toother vehicles, and in accordance withcurrent traffic rules and regulations.

Limitations of Run-Off Mitigationwith steering assistance
In certain demanding driving conditions, the function may not be able to properly assist thedriver. In these situations, it is recommendedthat it is turned off.
Examples of such situations include:
• road work
• winter driving conditions
• narrow roads
• poor road surfaces
• a very sporty driving style
• bad weather with reduced visibility
• roads with indistinct or no lane markings
• sharp edges or lines other than the lane's side markings
• when the power steering works at reducedpower - e.g. during cooling due to overheat-ing (see section "Speed-dependent steeringforce").
NOTE
The function uses the vehicle's camera unit, which has some general limitations – see thesection "Camera unit limitations".

Steering assistance during collisionrisks from oncoming traffic
This sub-function can help assist a distracted driver who has not noticed that the vehicle isveering into oncoming traffic.
The function provides assistance by swerving your vehi- cle back into your own lane.
Oncoming vehicles
Own vehicle
The function is active at speeds between 60-140 km/h (37-87 mph) on roads with clearlyvisible traffic lane markings/lines. If your vehicle is starting to veer from your own lane and a vehicle is approaching from the oppo- site direction, this function can help the driversteer the vehicle back into its own lane. However, the function will
not provide steering
assistance if the turn signal is used. The functionwill also not be activated if it detects that thedriver is actively operating the vehicle. After the system has automatically intervened, this text message will appear in the instrumentpanel:
•
Collision avoidance assistance –Automatic intervention
WARNING
• The "Steering assistance at risk of head- on collision" subfunction is supplemen-tary driver support intended to improvedriving safety – it cannot handle all situa-tions in all traffic, weather and road condi-tions.
• Pilot Assist is only activated if there is ahigh risk of collision – you must thereforenever wait for the function to intervene.
• The function is not a substitute for thedriver's attention and judgment. The driveris always responsible for ensuring thevehicle is driven in a safe manner, at theappropriate speed, with an appropriatedistance to other vehicles, and in accord-ance with current traffic rules and regula-tions.
