City Safety steering assistance forevasive maneuver City Safety steering assistance can help the driver steer away from vehicles or obstacleswhen a collision cannot be avoided by brakingalone.
Your vehicle swerves away
Slow-moving/stationary vehicle or obstacle.
City Safety helps provide assistance by strength- ening the driver's steering movements, but only ifthe driver has begun evasive action and the sys-tem detects that the driver's steering movementsare not sufficient to avoid a collision. The brake system is used simultaneously to fur- ther strengthen steering movements. The func-tion also helps stabilize the vehicle after it haspassed the obstacle. City Safety steering assistance can detect: •
vehicles
• cyclists
• pedestrians
• large animals
WARNING
• The possibility of City Safety predicting a certain situation is supplementary driversupport intended to improve driving safety– it cannot handle all situations in all traf-fic, weather and road conditions.
• City Safety is not a substitute for the driv-er's attention and judgment. The driver isalways responsible for ensuring the vehi-cle 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.

City Safety steering assistancelimitations during evasivemaneuvers City Safety steering assistance may have limited functionality in certain situations and not inter-vene, e.g.:
• at speeds outside the range of 50-100 km/h (30-62 mph)
• if the driver does not take evasive action
• if the power steering works at reduced power- e.g. during cooling due to overheating (seesection "Speed-dependent steering force").
NOTE
The function uses the vehicle's camera unit, which has some general limitations – see thesection "Camera unit limitations".
NOTE
The function uses the vehicle's radar unit, which has some general limitations – see thesection "Radar unit limitations".

City Safety and delayed evasivemaneuvers City Safety can assist the driver by automatically braking the vehicle when it is not possible toavoid a collision by steering alone.
City Safety assists the driver by periodically attempting to predict possible "escape routes" tothe sides of the vehicle in the event a slow-mov-ing or stationary vehicle were to be detected at alate stage.
Your vehicle (1) cannot detect any potential escape routes for veering away from the vehicle ahead (2) andmay therefore apply the brakes at an earlier stage.
Own vehicle
Slow-moving/stationary vehicles
City Safety will not intervene to automatically apply the brakes if it is possible for the driver toavoid a collision by steering the vehicle. However, if City Safety determines that an eva-sive maneuver would not be possible due to traf-fic in the adjacent lane(s), the function can assistthe driver by automatically starting to apply thebrakes at an earlier stage.

WARNING
•Warnings and brake interventions can be triggered late or not at all if the traffic sit-uation or external influences prevent thecamera and radar unit from properlydetecting pedestrians, cyclists, large ani-mals or vehicles ahead of the vehicle.
• To be able to detect vehicles at night, itsfront and rear lights must work and illumi-nate clearly.
• The camera and radar unit have a limitedrange for pedestrians and cyclists – thesystem can provide effective warningsand brake interventions if the relativespeed is lower than 50 km/h (30 mph).For stationary or slow-moving vehicles,warnings and brake interventions areeffective at vehicle speeds of up to70 km/h (43 mph). Speed reduction forlarge animals is less than 15 km/h(9 mph) and can be achieved at vehiclespeeds over 70 km/h (43 mph). At lowerspeeds, the warning and brake interven-tion for large animals is less effective.
• Warnings for stationary or slow-movingvehicles and large animals can be disen-gaged due to darkness or poor visibility.
• Warnings and brake interventions for pedestrians and cyclists are disengagedat vehicle speeds over 80 km/h(50 mph).
• Do not place, affix or mount anything onthe inside or outside of the windshield, orin front of or around the camera andradar unit – this could disrupt camera-based functions.
• Objects, snow, ice or dirt in the area ofthe camera sensor can reduce the func-tion, disengage it completely or give animproper function response.
NOTE
The function uses the vehicle's camera unit, which has some general limitations – see thesection "Camera unit limitations".

Rear Collision Warning
The Rear Collision Warning (RCW) function can help the driver avoid rear-end collisions fromvehicles approaching from behind.
RCW is automatically activated each time the engine is started. RCW can warn the driver of a potential collision with vehicles approaching from behind by rapidlyflashing the turn signals. If, at a speed below 30 km/h (20 mph), the RCW function detects that the car is in danger of beinghit from behind, the seatbelt tensioners may ten-sion the front seatbelts and activate the WhiplashProtection System safety system. Immediately before a collision from behind, RCW may also activate the foot brake in order toreduce the forward acceleration of the car duringthe collision. However, the brakes will only beapplied if your vehicle is stationary. The brakeswill be immediately released if the acceleratorpedal is depressed.

• Rear Collision Warning limitations (p. 340)
• Whiplash Protection System (p. 46)
Rear Collision Warning limitations
In some situations, it may be difficult for RCW to warn the driver of a collision risk.
This may be the case if:
• the vehicle approaching from the rear is detected at a late stage
• the vehicle approaching from the rearchanges lanes at a late stage
• the vehicle approaching from the rear is mov-ing at a speed above 80 km/h (50 mph)
• a trailer, bicycle holder or similar is con-nected to the vehicle's electrical system - theRCW function will then be automaticallydeactivated.
NOTE
In certain markets RCW does
not warn with
the direction indicators due to local traffic regulations – in such cases, that part of thefunction is deactivated.
NOTE
The warning with direction indicators for Rear Collision Warning is deactivated if the colli-sion warning distance in the City Safety func- tion is set to the lowest level "
Late".
The seat belt tensioning and braking func- tions remain active.

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.

Park Assist front, rear and sides
Park Assist has different parameters depending on which part of the vehicle is approaching anobstacle.
Back
Note: This illustration is general and details may vary depending on model.
The rear sensors will be activated if the vehicle begins rolling backward or if reverse gear isengaged. The distance monitored begins approx. 1.5 meters (5 feet) behind the vehicle. The rear sensors will be automatically deactivated if the vehicle is backing up with a trailer attached.
NOTE
When reversing with e.g. a trailer or bike car- rier on the trailer hitch – without Volvo originaltrailer cables – the Parking Assist system mayhave to be turned off manually to prevent thesensors from reacting to these.
Side sensors
Park Assist's side sensors are automatically acti- vated when the engine is started. They are activeat speeds below 10 km/h (6 mph). The distance monitored begins approx. 30 cm (1 ft) from the sides. The audible signal for obsta-cles along the sides of the vehicle is emittedfrom the side speakers.
Front camera
Note: This illustration is general and details may vary depending on model.
Park Assist's front sensors are automatically acti- vated when the engine is started. The front sen-sors are active at speeds below 10 km/h(6 mph). The distance monitored begins approx. 80 cm (2.5 ft) in front of the vehicle.
NOTE
The Parking Assist system is deactivated when the parking brake is applied or when P
is selected on vehicles with automatic trans- mission.

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 Pilot *
Park Assist Pilot (PAP 123
) helps the driver pull
into and out of parking spaces.
PAP first checks whether there is sufficient space and then steers the car into the space. The center display uses symbols, graphics and messages to inform the driver of what steps needto be taken and when.
WARNING
• The PAP function is supplementary driver support intended to facilitate driving andhelp make it safer – it cannot handle allsituations in all traffic, weather and roadconditions.
• Pay particular attention to people andanimals near the vehicle.
• PAP is not a substitute for the driver'sattention and judgment. The driver isalways responsible for ensuring the vehi-cle 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.
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.
