When you drive a Volvo, you become our partnerin the work to lessen the vehicle's impact on theenvironment. To reduce your vehicle's environ-mental impact, you can:
•Maintain proper air pressure in your tires.Tests have shown decreased fuel economywith improperly inflated tires.
•Follow the recommended maintenanceschedule in your Warranty and ServiceRecords Information booklet.
•Drive at a constant speed whenever possible.
•See a trained and qualified Volvo servicetechnician as soon as possible for inspectionif the check engine (malfunction indicator)light illuminates, or stays on after the vehiclehas started.
•Properly dispose of any vehicle-related wastesuch as used motor oil, used batteries, brakepads, etc.
•When cleaning your vehicle, please use gen-uine Volvo car care products. All Volvo carcare products are formulated to be environ-mentally friendly.

Twin Engine vehicles
•If possible, precondition the vehicle with thecharging cable before driving.
•If preconditioning is not possible in coldweather, use the seat and steering wheelheating primarily. Avoid heating the entirepassenger compartment, which reduces thehybrid battery's charge level.
•Choose the Pure drive mode to help mini-mize electric power consumption.
•In hilly terrain, put the gear selector in modeB to utilize the electric motor's braking func-tion when the accelerator pedal is released.This helps charge the hybrid battery.

IntelliSafe - driver support
IntelliSafe is Volvo Cars' philosophy regardingvehicle safety. IntelliSafe consists of a number ofsystems, both standard and optional, that aredesigned to help make driving safer, preventaccidents and protect passengers and otherroad users.
Support
IntelliSafe includes driver support functions suchas Adaptive cruise control* which helps the driverto maintain an even speed combined with a pre-selected time interval to the vehicle ahead.
Pilot Assist4 helps the driver keep the vehicle inthe current traffic lane by providing steeringassistance and maintaining an even speed and aset time interval to the vehicle ahead.
Park Assist Pilot* helps the driver pull into andout of parking spaces.
Other examples of systems that can help thedriver are the Active main beam, Cross TrafficAlert (CTA)* and Blind Spot Information (BLIS)*systems.

Prevention
City Safety is a function intended to help preventaccidents. The function can help prevent or miti-gate a collision with pedestrians, cyclists, largeanimals or other vehicles. Light, sound and pulsa-tions in the brake pedal are provided to alert of a
4Depending on market, this function can be either standard or optional.

possible collision and help the driver act in timeto prevent it. If the driver does not react to thewarning and the risk of collision is determined tobe imminent, City Safety can automatically applythe brakes.
Lane assistance (LKA) is another example of afunction that can help prevent accidents by help-ing the driver - on expressways and similar largerroads - to reduce the risk of the car accidentallyleaving its own lane.
The function Steering aid during increasedcollision risk can help the driver reduce the riskof the car leaving its lane unintentionally and/orcolliding with another vehicle or obstacle byactively steering the car back into its lane and/orswerving.

Protection
To help protect the driver and passengers, thevehicle is equipped with seat belt tensioners thatpull the seat belts taut in collisions and other crit-ical situations. The vehicle also has airbags, inflat-able curtains and the Whiplash ProtectionSystem (WHIPS), which helps prevent whiplashinjuries.

DRIVER SUPPORT
* Option/accessory.
272 Driver support systems
The vehicle is equipped with a number of driver
support systems that can provide the driver with
active or passive assistance in various situations.
The system can, for example, help the driver
maintain a set speed or a set time interval to the
vehicle ahead, help prevent a collision by warning
the driver and applying the brakes, or assist the
driver while parking.
Some of the systems are standard and others are
options. This also varies from market to market.

resistance
Speed-dependent power steering increases the
steering wheel resistance in pace with the vehi-
cle's speed to give the driver an enhanced feel-
ing of control and stability.
Steering may feel stiffer on highways. When
parking and at low speeds, it will be easier to
move the steering wheel.
NOTE In some situations, the power steering may
become too hot and require temporary cool-
ing – during such time the power steering will
work at reduced output and the steering
wheel may feel more difficult to move.
In parallel with the temporarily reduced steer-
ing assistance, the driver display shows a
message as well as a STEERING WHEEL
symbol.

Control
The Roll Stability Control (RSC 1
) system helps
minimize the risk of a rollover in the event of e.g.
a sudden evasive maneuver or if the vehicle
begins to skid.
The RSC system monitors the lateral angle at
which the vehicle is leaning and registers any
changes. Using this information, the system cal-
culates the likelihood of a rollover. If there is an
imminent risk of a rollover, Electronic Stability
Control is activated, engine torque is reduced and
brakes are applied to one or more of the wheels
until the vehicle has regained stability.

Adaptive Cruise Control* (p. 295) Passing assistance with Adaptive
Cruise Control
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC
51
) can assist the
driver when passing other vehicles.
How passing assistance worksWhen ACC is following another vehicle and you
indicate that you intend to pass that vehicle by
using the turn signal 52
, Adaptive Cruise Control
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 a
slower-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 passing
another vehicle, such as when a direction indi-
cator is used to indicate a lane change or
before exiting to another road – the vehicle
will then briefly accelerate.

Adaptive Cruise Control* (p. 295) Starting passing assistance with
Adaptive Cruise Control
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 ACC must be high
enough to safely pass another vehicle.

Limitations of passing assistance
with Adaptive Cruise Control
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 normally
occur
• the vehicle ahead slows before your vehi-
cle has had time to switch to the passing
lane
• traffic in the passing lane slows down
• a vehicle for right-hand traffic is driven in
a country with left-hand traffic (or vice
versa).
Situations of this type can be avoided by tempo-
rarily putting ACC 53
in standby mode.
Related information
• Adaptive Cruise Control* (p. 295) Switching target vehicles with
Adaptive Cruise Control
At certain speeds, models with automatic trans-
missions and Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC 54
)
can switch target vehicles.
Switching target vehicles If the target vehicle ahead turns suddenly, there may be
stationary traffic ahead.
When Adaptive Cruise Control is actively follow-
ing another vehicle at speeds under 30 km/h
(20 mph) and switches targets from a moving
vehicle to a stationary vehicle, Adaptive Cruise
Control will brake for the stationary vehicle.
WARNING When Adaptive Cruise Control follows another
vehicle at speeds over approx. 30 km/h
(20 mph) and changes target vehicle – from a
moving vehicle to a stationary one – Adaptive
Cruise Control will ignore the stationary vehi-
cle and instead accelerate to the stored
speed.
•
The driver must then intervene and apply
the brakes.
Automatic standby mode when switching
targets
Adaptive Cruise Control will be disabled and go
into standby mode:
• if your vehicle's speed goes below 5 km/h
(3 mph) and Adaptive Cruise Control cannot
determine if the target object is a stationary
vehicle or another object, e.g. a speed bump.
• if your vehicle's speed goes under 5 km/h
(3 mph) and the vehicle ahead turns so that
Adaptive Cruise Control no longer has a vehi-
cle to follow.
