NOTE The distance between the vehicle and parking
spots should be 0.5-1.5 meters (1.6-5.0 ft)
when PAP is looking for parking.
ParkingPAP parks the vehicle using the following 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 is positioned in the parking space (the driver may be prompted to shift
gears).
Searching for and measuring potential
parking spots
The function can be activated
in the center display's Function
view.
It can also be accessed from
the camera views. Parallel parking overview.
Perpendicular parking overview.To do so:
1.

The vehicle's speed may not exceed
30 km/h (20 mph) when parallel parking or
20 km/h (12 mph) when perpendicular park-
ing.
2. Tap Park In in Function view or in Camera
view.
>

PAP will search for a potential parking
space and measure it to determine if it is
big enough.
3. Be prepared to stop the vehicle when a graphic and message in the center display
indicate that a suitable parking space has
been found.
> A pop-up window will appear.
4. Select Parallel parking or Perpendicular
parking and engage reverse gear.
NOTE PAP searches for space for parking, shows
instructions and guides the vehicle on its pas-
senger side. But, if so desired the vehicle can
be parked on the driver's side of the street:
•
Activate the turn signals on the driver's
side – the system will then search for
space to park on that side of the vehicle
instead. 126

Park Assist Pilot* (p. 395) Leaving a parking space with Park
Assist Pilot
The function Park Out can also help the driver
to leave a parking space.
NOTE Leaving a parking space with the Park Out
function should only be used in connection
with parallel parking – it does not work for
perpendicular parking.
The Park Out function is acti-
vated in the center display's
Function view or in Camera
view. To do so:
1.
Tap Park Out in Function view or in Camera
view.
2.

Move the gear selector to the suitable posi-
tion (e.g. D or R) for the direction in which
you will be pulling out of the parking space.
3. Be prepared to stop the vehicle when instructed to do so by a graphic and mes-
sage in the center display. Follow the instruc-
tions in the same way as for the parking pro-
cedure.
Note that the steering wheel can "spring" back
when the procedure is completed and the driver may need to turn the steering wheel back to the
maximum position in order to pull out of the park-
ing space.
If PAP determines that the driver can pull out of
the parking space without any extra maneuvers,
the function will be deactivated, even if it seems
as though the vehicle is not completely out of the
parking space.

400 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 and
help make it safer – it cannot handle all
situations in all traffic, weather and road
conditions.
• Pay particular attention to people and
animals near the vehicle.
• Bear in mind that the front end of the
vehicle may swing out towards oncoming
traffic during the parking maneuver.
• Objects situated higher than the detec-
tion area of the sensors are not included
when the parking maneuver is calculated,
which could cause PAP to swing into the
parking space too early. Such parking
spaces should be avoided for this reason.
• PAP is not a substitute for the driver's
attention and judgment. The driver is
always responsible for ensuring the vehi-
cle is driven in a safe manner, at the
appropriate speed, with an appropriate
distance 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 a
wheel 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 steering
force").
A message in the center display will explain why
the parking sequence was cancelled.
CAUTION Under certain circumstances, PAP may not be
able to find parking spaces – one reason may
be that the sensors are disrupted by external
sound sources that emit the same ultrasonic
frequencies that the system works with.
Examples of such sources include horns, wet
tires on asphalt, pneumatic brakes, exhaust
noise from motorcycles, etc.

HYBRID INFORMATION
406General information about Twin
Engine
Twin Engine vehicles are driven just like any
other vehicle, but certain functions differ from a
vehicle powered exclusively by gasoline. The
electric motor powers the vehicle primarily at low
speeds; the gasoline engine is used at higher
speeds or during more active driving. The instrument panel displays Twin Engine-spe-
cific information - charging information, selected
drive mode, distance to discharged battery and
hybrid battery charge level.
Different drive modes can be selected while driv-
ing, e.g. electric power only or, if more power is
needed, a combination of electric and gasoline
power. The vehicle calculates the optimal combi-
nation of driveability, driving experience, environ-
mental impact and fuel economy for the selected
drive mode.
In order to function optimally, the hybrid battery
(and its electrical drive systems) and the gasoline
engine (and its drive systems) must be at the
correct operating temperature. Battery capacity
can be considerably reduced if the battery is too
cold or too hot. Preconditioning prepares the
vehicle's drive systems and passenger compart-
ment before driving to help reduce both wear and
energy consumption. It also helps increase the
hybrid battery's range.
The hybrid battery, which powers the electric
motor, is recharged using the charging cable. It
can also be recharged during light braking and through engine braking in gear position B. The
combustion engine can also help recharge the
hybrid 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 or
the start battery is discharged, certain functions
such as brakes, power steering, etc. will not work.
WARNING If the vehicle does not have electrical current
and both the electric motor and the gasoline
engine are switched off, the brakes cannot be
used 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 electric
motor and may therefore be difficult to detect
for children, pedestrians, cyclists or animals.
This is especially true at low speeds, e.g. in
parking lots.
High-voltage electrical current
WARNING Several components in the vehicle work with
high voltage that can be hazardous in case of
an incorrect procedure. These components
and any orange wiring in the vehicle may only
be handled by trained and qualified Volvo
service technicians.
Do not touch anything that is not clearly descri-
bed in this Owner's Manual.

batteries (p. 421) Charging current
Charging current is used to charge the hybrid
battery and precondition the vehicle. Charging is
performed by connecting a charging cable
between the vehicle's charging socket and a
120/240 V electrical socket (alternating cur-
rent).
When the charging cable is activated, a message
will be displayed in the instrument panel and an
indicator light in the vehicle's charging socket will
illuminate. Charging current is primarily used for
battery charging, but is also used for precondi-
tioning. The vehicle's start battery is charged
along with the hybrid battery.
CAUTION
Never detach the charging cable from the
120/240 V outlet (AC, alternating current)
while charging is in progress – the
120/240 V outlet could be damaged in such
circumstances. Always interrupt charging first
and then disconnect the charging cable – first
from the vehicle's charging socket and then
from the 120/240 V outlet.
NOTE •
In extremely cold or hot weather, part of
the charging current is used to heat/cool
the hybrid battery and the passenger
compartment, resulting in a longer charg-
ing time.
• The charging time is longer if precondi-
tioning has been selected. The time
required depends primarily on the ambi-
ent temperature. There are normally several 120/240 V power
consumers in one fuse circuit, which means that
more than one power consumer (e.g. lighting,
vacuum cleaner, electric drill, etc.) may use the
same fuse.

Disconnect the charger from the wall out-
let before cleaning it.
• Never connect the charging cable to an
extension cord or a multiple plug socket.
Also, refer to the manufacturer's instructions
for using the charging cable and its compo-
nents.
CAUTION Make sure that the 120/240 V outlet (AC,
alternating current) has a power capacity suf-
ficient for charging electric vehicles. If you are
uncertain of the capacity, have the outlet
checked by a licensed electrician.
Take out the charging cable from the storage
compartment under the cargo area. Note that the
ignition must be switched off completely before
charging. Plug the charging cable into a 120/240 V
outlet. Never use an extension cord.
Open the charger door and remove the
charging socket's protective cover. Push the
charging handle all the way into the vehicle's
socket.3.

The charging cable handle will lock into
place and charging will begin within
5 seconds. When charging starts, the green
LED light in the charging socket will begin to
flash. The approximate remaining charging
time or the charging status will be displayed
in the instrument panel.
Charging may be temporarily interrupted if
the vehicle is unlocked:
• and a door is open ‒ charging will restart
within a few minutes.
• if no door is opened ‒ the vehicle will
automatically relock. Charging will resume
after 1 minute.
CAUTION Never detach the charging cable from the
120/240 V outlet (AC, alternating current)
while charging is in progress – the
120/240 V outlet could be damaged in such
circumstances. Always interrupt charging first
and then disconnect the charging cable – first
from the vehicle's charging socket and then
from the 120/240 V outlet.
During charging, condensation from the air con-
ditioning may form under the vehicle. This is nor-
mal and is caused by the hybrid battery cooling.
