mentary driver support intended to facili-
tate driving and help make it safer – it
cannot handle all situations in all traffic,
weather and road conditions.
• The parking cameras have dead/blind
spots where objects cannot be detected.
• Pay particular attention to people and
animals near the vehicle.
• Objects/obstacles may be closer to the
vehicle than they appear on the screen.
• The parking cameras are not a substitute
for the driver's attention and judgment.
The driver is always responsible for
ensuring the vehicle is driven in a safe
manner, at the appropriate speed, with an
appropriate distance to other vehicles,
and in accordance with current traffic
rules and regulations.

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 the
driver see what is around the vehicle while
maneuvering at low speeds.
From the 360° view, each camera view can be
activated separately:
• Tap the screen to select the camera's field of
vision, e.g. in the area in front/above the front
camera. The active cameras will be indi-
cated by a camera symbol on
the vehicle symbol in the center
display.
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 bumper
and the towbar (if installed) may be visible. Objects on the center display may appear to be
leaning 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 is
active at speeds up to 25 km/h (16 mph) and is
automatically turned off when the vehicle
exceeds 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 camera
turns off, the camera will be reactivated. 119

are located in the rearview mirrors.
The side cameras can show views along each
side of the vehicle.
Related information
• Park Assist Camera* (p. 386) Park Assist Camera trajectory lines
The Park Assist Camera uses trajectory lines
and fields on the screen to indicate the vehicle's
position 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 based
on the current position of the steering wheel to help simplify parallel parking, backing into tight
spaces or attaching a trailer.
The lines on the screen are projected as if they
were painted lines on the ground behind the
vehicle and are directly affected by the way in
which the steering wheel is turned. This enables
the driver to see path the vehicle will take, even if
he/she turns the steering wheel.
These lines also indicate the outermost limits that
any object (towbar, rearview mirrors, corners of
the body, etc.) extends out from the vehicle.
NOTE
•
When reversing with a trailer that is not
electrically connected to the vehicle, the
screen 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 to
the vehicle's electrical system.
• Guide lines are not shown when zooming
in. 120

CAUTION•
Bear in mind that when the rearward
camera view is selected, the screen only
shows the area behind the vehicle – pay
attention to the sides and front of the
vehicle when steering while reversing.
• The same applies to the reverse – pay
attention to what is happening with the
rear parts of the vehicle when the front
camera 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 in
contact with/travel over anything when
steering while driving forward or that the
vehicle front moves toward/over anything
when steering while reversing.Trajectory lines in 360° view* 360° view with trajectory lines

.
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, the
trajectory lines will be shown regardless of the
vehicle's direction of travel.
With a side camera selected, the trajectory lines
will only be shown if the vehicle is backing up.Trajectory lines for a towbar* Towbar with trajectory line

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.

418 Stopping hybrid battery charging
To stop charging of the hybrid battery, unlock
the vehicle, unplug the charging cable from the
vehicle's charging socket and then unplug the
cable from the 120/240 V outlet (alternating
current).
NOTE Always unlock the vehicle so that charging is
cut off before the connection to the
120/240 V outlet (AC, alternating current) is
disconnected. Note that the charging cable
must be disconnected from the vehicle's
charging socket before it is disconnected
from the 120/240 V outlet, partly to prevent
damage to the system and party to prevent
unintentional 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 cover
back 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 the
charging socket, it will automatically lock into
place again after unlocking to maximize chargingand range and to enable preconditioning before
driving. The charging cable can be removed again
if the vehicle is unlocked using the remote key.
For vehicles with Passive Entry*, the handle can
be used to lock and unlock.
