CAUTION
Objects such as chains, thin and glossy poles or low obstacles may end up in the "signalshadow" and then go temporarily undetectedby the sensors – the pulsating tone may thenunexpectedly stop instead of becoming aconstant tone as expected. The sensors cannot detect high objects, such as protruding ramps.
• In such situations, pay extra attention andmaneuver/drive the vehicle very slowly orstop the current parking maneuver –there may be a high risk of damage tothe vehicle or other objects since infor-mation from the sensors is not alwaysreliable in such situations.
CAUTION
In some circumstances, the Park Assist Sys- tem may produce false warnings due to exter-nal sound sources with the same ultrasonicfrequencies as those the system works with. Examples of such sources are horns, wet tires on asphalt, pneumatic brakes, exhaust noisefrom motorcycles, etc.
NOTE
When a trailer hitch is configured with the vehicle electrical system, the trailer hitch pro-trusion is included when the function meas-ures the distance to objects behind the vehi-cle.

Park Assist Camera trajectory lines
The Park Assist Camera uses trajectory lines and fields on the screen to indicate the vehicle'sposition in relation to its immediate surround-ings.
Example 120
of trajectory lines.
The trajectory lines show the anticipated trajec- tory for the vehicle's outermost dimensions basedon the current position of the steering wheel to help simplify parallel parking, backing into tightspaces or attaching a trailer. The lines on the screen are projected as if they were painted lines on the ground behind thevehicle and are directly affected by the way inwhich the steering wheel is turned. This enablesthe driver to see path the vehicle will take, even ifhe/she turns the steering wheel. These lines also indicate the outermost limits that any object (towbar, rearview mirrors, corners ofthe body, etc.) extends out from the vehicle.
NOTE
•
When reversing with a trailer that is not electrically connected to the vehicle, thescreen guide lines show the path the vehicle
will take – not the trailer.
• The screen does not show guide lines when a trailer is electrically connected tothe vehicle's electrical system.
• Guide lines are not shown when zoomingin.

CAUTION
• Bear in mind that when the rearward camera view is selected, the screen onlyshows the area behind the vehicle – payattention to the sides and front of thevehicle when steering while reversing.
• The same applies to the reverse – payattention to what is happening with therear parts of the vehicle when the frontcamera view is selected.
• Note that the guide lines show the
short-
est path – pay extra attention to ensure
that the vehicle sides do not come incontact with/travel over anything whensteering while driving forward or that thevehicle front moves toward/over anythingwhen steering while reversing.
Trajectory lines in 360° view *
360° view with trajectory lines120
.
In the 360° view, trajectory lines are shown behind, in front of, or to the sides of the vehicle,depending on the direction of travel.
• When driving forward: Front lines
• When backing up: Side lines and rear lines.
When the front or rear camera is selected, thetrajectory lines will be shown regardless of thevehicle's direction of travel. With a side camera selected, the trajectory lines will only be shown if the vehicle is backing up.

Starting the Park Assist Camera
The Park Assist Camera starts automatically when reverse gear is engaged or can be startedmanually using one of the center display's func-tion buttons.
Camera view when backing upWhen reverse gear is engaged, the screen shows the rear view 122
.
Camera view when manually starting
the camera
Start the Park Assist Camera using this button in the centerdisplay's Function view. The screen will first show the most recently used cameraview. However, each time the
engine is started, the previous side view will bereplaced by the 360° view and a previously dis-played zoomed-in rear view will be replaced bythe regular rear view.
Automatically deactivating the cameraFront view switches off when the vehicle's speed reaches 25 km/h (16 mph) to help avoid dis-tracting the driver. It will be automatically reactiva-ted if the vehicle's speed falls below 22 km/h(14 mph) within 1 minute as long as the vehicle'sspeed has not exceeded 50 km/h (31 mph). Other camera views switch off at 15 km/h(9 mph) and are not reactivated.

Park Assist Camera limitations
The Park Assist Camera may not be able to detect all conditions in all situations and func-tionality may therefore be limited.
The driver should be aware of the following limi- tations for the Park Assist Camera:
WARNING
Be extra cautious when reversing if this symbol isshown when a trailer, bikecarrier or similar is attachedand electrically connectedto the vehicle. The symbol indicates that
the rear parking assist sensors are deacti-
vated and will not warn of any obstacles.
NOTE
A bike carrier and other accessories mounted on the rear of the vehicle can obscure thecamera's view.

Parallel parking
Overview of parallel parking.
The PAP function parks the vehicle using the fol- lowing steps:
1. The system searches for and measures
potential parking spaces.
2. The vehicle is steered while it is backing into the parking space.
3. The vehicle's position in the space is adjusted by driving forward/backward.
The
Park Out function can be used to receive
assistance from PAP while pulling out of a park- ing space. See the heading "Pulling out of aparking space" under "Parking with Park AssistPilot".
Perpendicular parking
Perpendicular parking overview.
The PAP function parks the vehicle using the fol- lowing steps:
1. The system searches for and measures potential parking spaces.
2. The vehicle is steered while it is backing into the space and its position is adjusted by driv-ing forward/backward.
NOTE
The PAP function Park Out cannot help the
vehicle leave a perpendicular parking space – the function should only be used for parallelparking.

Parking with Park Assist Pilot Park Assist Pilot (PAP 125
) helps the driver park
using three different steps. The function can also help the driver pull out of a parking space.
NOTE
The PAP function measures the space and steers the vehicle – the driver's role is to:
• keep close watch of the area around thevehicle
• follow the instructions on the center dis-play
• change gears (reverse/forward) – a"ping" sound indicates when the drivershould change gears
• regulate and maintain a safe speed
• apply the brakes and stop.
Information about the actions required by the driver are provided in the center display usingsymbols, graphics and/or text. PAP can be activated if the following criteria have been met after the engine is started: •
No trailer is hitched to the vehicle
• Your vehicle's speed is lower than 30 km/h (20 mph).

Parking on a hill
Always use the parking brake when parking on a hill.
WARNING
Always apply the parking brake when parking on an incline. Selecting a gear or putting the automatic transmission in P may not be suffi-
cient to keep the vehicle stationary in all sit- uations.
If the vehicle is pointing uphill: • Turn the front wheels so they are pointing away from
the curb.
If the vehicle is pointing downhill:
• Turn the front wheels so they are pointingtoward
the curb.
Heavy load uphill
Heavy loads, such as a trailer, could cause the vehicle to roll backward when the parking brakeis released automatically on steep uphill gradi-ents. To help avoid this, pull the control upwardwhile you are driving away. Release the controlwhen the vehicle gains traction.

Parking brake malfunction
If you are unable to deactivate or activate the parking brake after several attempts, contact anauthorized Volvo workshop.
A audible warning signal will sound if the parking brake is applied while the vehicle is being driven. If the vehicle must be parked before the problem is rectified, turn the wheels as when parking on an incline and put the gear selector in P.
Low battery charge levelIf the battery charge level is too low, it will not be possible to apply or release the parking brake.Connect an auxiliary battery to the vehicle if thebattery is discharged.
Replacing brake padsDue to the design of the electric parking brake,the rear brake pads must be replaced by a work-shop. An authorized Volvo workshop is recom-mended.

ECO
•Adapt the vehicle for more fuel-efficient and eco-friendly driving with Eco mode.
In this mode, the Start/Stop function is activated,the ground clearance is lower to reduce air resis-tance and certain climate settings are reduced. The instrument panel has an ECO gauge to facili- tate fuel-efficient driving.
OFF ROAD
• Maximizes the vehicle's ability to traverse dif- ficult terrain or poor roads.
In this mode, ground clearance is high, steering islight, and all-wheel drive and Hill Descent Controlare activated. The Start/Stop function is deacti-vated. This mode can only be activated at low speeds. The permitted speed range will be shown in thespeedometer. If this speed is exceeded, Off roadmode will be deactivated and another drive modeactivated. In Off road mode, a compass will be displayed between the speedometer and the tachometer inthe instrument panel.
NOTE
This drive mode is not designed to be used for normal street driving.
NOTE
Due to the increased ground clearance, if the OFF ROAD mode was selected when theengine was switched off, the suspension willlower when the engine is restarted.
CAUTION
Do not use the OFF ROAD drive mode when towing a trailer without an electrical connec-tion. This could result in damage to the pneu-matic suspension system's bellows.
DYNAMIC
• Dynamic mode is designed to provide sport- ier driving characteristics and a faster accel-eration response.
Gear shifting will be faster and more distinct andthe transmission will prioritize gears with a highertraction force. Steering response is faster, suspension is stiffer and ground clearance is lower to help reducebody roll when cornering. The Start/Stop function is deactivated.
INDIVIDUAL
• Customizes drive mode to personal preferen- ces. Select one of the drive modes as a basis andadjust the settings to achieve your preferred driv-ing characteristics. These settings will be storedin your driver profile. Individual drive mode is only available if it has been activated in the center display.Settings view
