Passing assistance with Pilot Assist
Pilot Assist can assist the driver when passing other vehicles.
How passing assistance worksWhen Pilot Assist is following another vehicle and you indicate that you intend to pass that vehicle by using the turn signal 66
, Pilot Assist will
begin accelerating toward the vehicle ahead before your vehicle has moved into the passing
lane. The function will then delay a speed reduction to avoid early braking as your vehicle approaches aslower-moving vehicle. The function remains active until your vehicle has passed the other vehicle.
WARNING
Please note that this function can be acti- vated in more situations than just passinganother vehicle, such as when a direction indi-cator is used to indicate a lane change orbefore exiting to another road – the vehiclewill then briefly accelerate.

Requirements for passing assistanceIn order to activate passing assistance:
• your vehicle must be following a vehicle ahead (target vehicle)
• your vehicle's
current speed must be
at least 70 km/h (43 mph)
• the set speed
for Pilot Assist must be high
enough to safely pass another vehicle.
Starting parking assistanceTo start passing assistance:
–Turn on the left turn signal.
> Passing assistance will start.

Passing assistance with Pilot Assistlimitations
Passing assistance functionality may be reduced in certain situations.
WARNING
The driver should be aware that if conditions suddenly change when using Parking Assis-tance, the function may implement an unde-sired acceleration in certain conditions. Some situations should be avoided, e.g. if: • the vehicle is approaching an exit in the same direction as passing would normallyoccur
• the vehicle ahead slows before your vehi-cle has had time to switch to the passinglane
• traffic in the passing lane slows down
• a vehicle for right-hand traffic is driven ina country with left-hand traffic (or viceversa).
Situations of this type can be avoided by tempo-rarily putting Pilot Assist in standby mode.

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.

• 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.

BLIS*
The BLIS 77
function is designed to help provide
assistance in heavy traffic with several lanes moving in the same direction by helping thedriver to detect the presence of vehicles in the"blind spot" area behind and to the side of thevehicle.
BLIS is a driver support system designed to alert the driver of:
• vehicles in your "blind spot"
• vehicles approaching rapidly in adjacentlanes.

Rapidly approaching vehicle zone.
The BLIS function is active at speeds above 10 km/h (6 mph). The system is designed to react to: • vehicles passing your vehicle
• vehicles that are rapidly approaching your vehicle from behind.
When BLIS detects a vehicle in zone 1 or a rap- idly approaching vehicle in zone 2, an indicatorlight will illuminate in the relevant rearview mirrorand glow steadily. If the driver then uses the turnsignal on the side in which the warning has been

If the driver does not keep his/her hands on the steeringwheel, the driver display showsthis symbol combined with amessage, which prompts thedriver to actively steer the car:
•Lane Keeping Aid – Apply steering
If the driver does not begin to steer the vehicle, the symbol will be displayed again, accompaniedby an audible signal and this message:

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.
