Park Assist Camera views
PAC can display a 360° panoramic view as well as separate views for each of the other cameras:rear, front, left and right.
360° view *
The location of the cameras and their approximate fields of vision.
The 360° view function activates all Park Assist
Cameras and all four sides of the vehicle are shown in the center display at once to help thedriver see what is around the vehicle whilemaneuvering at low speeds. From the 360° view, each camera view can be activated separately:
• Tap the screen to select the camera's field ofvision, e.g. in the area in front/above the frontcamera. The active cameras will be indi-cated by a camera symbol onthe vehicle symbol in the centerdisplay. If the vehicle is equipped with
Park Assist System*
, the dis-
tance to detected obstacles will be illustrated by fields in different colors.
The cameras can be activated automatically or manually. See "Starting the Park Assist Camera"for more information.
Back
The rear camera 119
is located above the license plate.
The rear camera shows a wide area behind the vehicle. On certain models, part of the bumperand the towbar (if installed) may be visible. Objects on the center display may appear to beleaning slightly. This is normal.
Front camera
The front Park Assist Camera
120
is located in the grille.
The front camera can be useful when pulling out from areas with limited visibility, such as a drive-way surrounded by a hedge. The front camera isactive at speeds up to 25 km/h (16 mph) and isautomatically turned off when the vehicleexceeds this speed. If the vehicle does not reach a speed of 50 km/h (30 mph) and speed falls below 22 km/h(14 mph) within 1 minute after the front cameraturns off, the camera will be reactivated.

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 121
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 lines121
.
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.

Park Assist Pilot * limitations
Park Assist Pilot PAP 127
may not be able to
detect all conditions in all situations and func- tionality may therefore be limited.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.
• Bear in mind that the front end of thevehicle may swing out towards oncomingtraffic during the parking maneuver.
• Objects situated higher than the detec-tion area of the sensors are not includedwhen the parking maneuver is calculated,which could cause PAP to swing into theparking space too early. Such parkingspaces should be avoided for this reason.
• 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.
The driver should be aware of the following limi-tations for Park Assist Pilot:
The parking sequence is cancelledA parking sequence will be cancelled if:
• the driver moves the steering wheel
• the vehicle's speed exceeds 7 km/h (4 mph)
• the driver taps
Cancel in the center display
• when the anti-lock brakes or the Electronic stability control are engaged - e.g. when awheel loses grip on a slippery road
• when the power steering works at reduced power - e.g. during cooling due to overheat- ing (see section "Speed-dependent steeringforce").
A message in the center display will explain whythe parking sequence was cancelled.
CAUTION
Under certain circumstances, PAP may not be able to find parking spaces – one reason maybe that the sensors are disrupted by externalsound sources that emit the same ultrasonicfrequencies that the system works with. Examples of such sources include horns, wet tires on asphalt, pneumatic brakes, exhaustnoise from motorcycles, etc.

HYBRID INFORMATION
406
General information about TwinEngine
Twin Engine vehicles are driven just like any other vehicle, but certain functions differ from avehicle powered exclusively by gasoline. Theelectric motor powers the vehicle primarily at lowspeeds; the gasoline engine is used at higherspeeds or during more active driving.
The instrument panel displays Twin Engine-spe- cific information - charging information, selecteddrive mode, distance to discharged battery andhybrid battery charge level. Different drive modes can be selected while driv- ing, e.g. electric power only or, if more power isneeded, a combination of electric and gasolinepower. The vehicle calculates the optimal combi-nation of driveability, driving experience, environ-mental impact and fuel economy for the selecteddrive mode. In order to function optimally, the hybrid battery (and its electrical drive systems) and the gasolineengine (and its drive systems) must be at thecorrect operating temperature. Battery capacitycan be considerably reduced if the battery is toocold or too hot. Preconditioning prepares thevehicle's drive systems and passenger compart-ment before driving to help reduce both wear andenergy consumption. It also helps increase thehybrid battery's range. The hybrid battery, which powers the electric motor, is recharged using the charging cable. Itcan also be recharged during light braking and through engine braking in gear position
B. The
combustion engine can also help recharge thehybrid battery.
Important
No electrical current
Keep in mind that if there is no electrical current to the vehicle, i.e. the ignition is switched off orthe start battery is discharged, certain functionssuch as brakes, power steering, etc. will not work.
WARNING
If the vehicle does not have electrical current and both the electric motor and the gasolineengine are switched off, the brakes cannot beused to stop the vehicle.
Towing not permitted
Never tow a Twin Engine vehicle behind another vehicle, as this could damage the electric motor.
Exterior engine noise
WARNING
Keep in mind that the vehicle does not emit any engine noise when using the electricmotor and may therefore be difficult to detectfor children, pedestrians, cyclists or animals.This is especially true at low speeds, e.g. inparking lots.
High-voltage electrical current
WARNING
Several components in the vehicle work with high voltage that can be hazardous in case ofan incorrect procedure. These componentsand any orange wiring in the vehicle may onlybe handled by trained and qualified Volvoservice technicians.
Do not touch anything that is not clearly descri- bed in this Owner's Manual.

Stopping hybrid battery charging
To stop charging of the hybrid battery, unlock the vehicle, unplug the charging cable from thevehicle's charging socket and then unplug thecable from the 120/240 V outlet (alternatingcurrent).
NOTE
Always unlock the vehicle so that charging is cut off before the connection to the120/240 V outlet (AC, alternating current) isdisconnected. Note that the charging cablemust be disconnected from the vehicle'scharging socket before it is disconnectedfrom the 120/240 V outlet, partly to preventdamage to the system and party to preventunintentional interruption of charging.
Unlock the vehicle with the remote key. Charging will stop.
Press the lock button on the charging cable's handle. The handle will be released/unlocked. Remove the cable from the vehi-cle's charging socket, put the socket's coverback in place and close the charger door.
Unplug the cable from the 120/240 V outlet. Stow the charging cable in the storage com- partment under the cargo area floor.
Charging cable automatically locksIf the charging cable cannot be removed from thecharging socket, it will automatically lock intoplace again after unlocking to maximize charging and range and to enable preconditioning beforedriving. The charging cable can be removed againif the vehicle is unlocked using the remote key. For vehicles with Passive Entry
*, the handle can
be used to lock and unlock.
