To temporarily deactivate Adaptive Cruise Control
and put it in standby mode:
– Press the button on the steering wheel
(2).
> The symbol in the instrument panel
changes color from WHITE to GRAY and
the set speed in the center of the speed-
ometer will change from BEIGE to GRAY.
WARNING •
If Adaptive Cruise Control is in standby
mode, the driver must intervene and regu-
late both speed and distance to the vehicle
ahead.
• If the vehicle comes too close to a vehicle
ahead when Adaptive Cruise Control is in
standby mode, the driver is instead warned
of the short distance by the Distance Alert
function.
Standby mode due to action by the driver
Adaptive Cruise Control will be temporarily deac-
tivated and put in standby mode if:
• the brakes are applied.
• the gear selector is moved to N
• the vehicle is driven faster than the set
speed for more than 1 minute Temporarily increasing speed using the accelera-
tor pedal, e.g. when passing another vehicle, will
not affect the setting. The vehicle will return to
the set speed when the accelerator pedal is
released.
Automatic standby mode
Adaptive Cruise Control is dependent on other
systems, such as Electronic Stability Control
(ESC 50
). If any of these other systems stops
working, Adaptive Cruise Control will automati-
cally switch off.
WARNING With automatic standby mode, the driver is
warned by an acoustic signal and a message
on the instrument panel.
•
The driver must then regulate vehicle
speed, apply the brakes if necessary, and
maintain a safe distance to other vehicles.
Adaptive Cruise Control may go into standby
mode if: • your vehicle's speed goes below 5 km/h
(3 mph) and ACC cannot determine if the
vehicle ahead is stationary or if it is another
object, e.g. a speed bump.
• your vehicle's speed goes under 5 km/h
(3 mph) and the vehicle ahead turns so that
ACC no longer has a vehicle to follow. •
the driver opens the door.
• the driver unbuckles the seat belt.
• the engine speed (rpm) is too low/high.
• one or more of the wheels lose traction.
• the brake temperature is high.
• the parking brake is applied.
• the camera/radar sensor is covered by snow
or heavy rain (the camera lens/radar waves
are blocked)

WARNING •
The charging cable's residual current
breaker helps protect the vehicle's charg-
ing system but cannot ensure that an cur-
rent overload will never occur.
• Never use visibly worn or damaged elec-
trical sockets. Doing so could lead to fires
or serious injury.
• Never connect the charging cable to an
extension cord.
• Maintenance or replacement of the hybrid
battery may only be performed by a
trained and qualified Volvo service techni-
cian.

•Charge cable (p. 409)
• Charging status in the charging cable's
charging module (p. 415) Charging cable temperature
monitoring
To help ensure the vehicle's hybrid battery is reli-
ably charged each time it is connected, charging
is stopped if the temperature in the charging
cable becomes too high and reaches a critical
limit.
CAUTION If charging is often inadvertently interrupted,
have the charging cable and the vehicle's
charging system inspected by a trained and
qualified Volvo service technician.

Initiating hybrid battery charging (p. 412)
• Stopping hybrid battery charging (p. 418)
• Charging the hybrid battery (p. 407) Initiating hybrid battery charging
The hybrid battery is charged by connecting a
charging cable between the vehicle and a
120/240 V outlet (alternating current).
Only use the charging cable supplied with the
car or a replacement cable recommended by
Volvo.
CAUTION Never connect the charging cable if there is a
risk of a thunderstorm or there is lightning.
WARNING •
The charging cable must be grounded
when in use. It is equipped with a cord
with a grounding conductor and a
grounding plug. The plug must be
inserted into an appropriate outlet that is
properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordi-
nances and is not damaged in any way.
• Children should be supervised when in
the vicinity of the charging cable when it
is plugged in.
• High voltage is present in your electric
meter housing and power distribution
service panel. Contact with high voltage
can cause death or serious personal
injury.
• Do not use the charging cable if it is
damaged in any way. A damaged or mal-
functioning charging cable may only be
repaired by a workshop – a authorized
Volvo workshop is recommended.
• Always position the charging cable so
that it will not be driven over, stepped on,
tripped over or otherwise damaged, or
cause personal injury.

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.
