Parking climate
Parking climate is an umbrella term for variousfunctions that improve the passenger compart-ment climate when the vehicle is parked, e.g.preconditioning.
Parking climate functions are controlled from theParking climate tab in the center display's Climate view.

Preconditioning
Preconditioning the vehicle before driving canhelp reduce wear and reduce energy consump-tion during a trip.
Preconditioning can be started immediately orstarted at a preset time using a timer.
The function utilizes several of the vehicle's sys-tems:
In cold weather, the parking heater heats thepassenger compartment to a comfortabletemperature.
In warm weather, air conditioning cools thepassenger compartment to a comfortabletemperature.
The electrically heated steering wheel* andseats* can be activated.
Heating for the windshield, rear window anddoor mirrors are automatically activated asneeded.
During preconditioning in a hot climate, conden-sation from the air conditions may drip under thevehicle. This is normal.

* Option/accessory.226
NOTE
Preconditioning is only available when the caris connected to an electrical outlet. A charg-ing post that is not always active, for examplebecause of a timer, can cause loss of functionfor preconditioning.
If the car is not connected to an electricalsocket it is still possible in a warm climate toachieve brief cooling of the passenger com-partment by direct starting preconditioning.
NOTE
The vehicle doors and windows should beclosed during preconditioning of the passen-ger compartment.
Starting from app *
A device with the Volvo On Call* app can be usedto start preconditioning or check settings. Pre-conditioning heats or cools the passenger com-partment (using the vehicle's air conditioning) toa comfortable temperature.
The passenger compartment can also be precon-
ditioned using the Engine Remote Start (ERS)3
function using the Volvo On Call* app.

Climate comfort retaining function
The climate in the passenger compartment canbe maintained when the vehicle is parked, e.g. ifthe engine is turned off but the driver or passen-gers remain in the vehicle.
This function can only be direct-started.
The function utilizes several of the vehicle's sys-tems:
Residual heat from the engine is used tohelp heat the passenger compartment to acomfortable temperature.
In warm weather, the ventilation system coolsthe passenger compartment by blowing air infrom outside.
NOTE
Climate comfort maintenance will be deacti-vated if the vehicle is locked from the outsidein order to avoid using residual engine heatunnecessarily. This function is intended to beused to maintain climate comfort when thedriver or a passenger remains in the vehicleafter the engine is turned off.

Pilot Assist limitations
Pilot Assist functionality may be reduced in cer-tain situations.
Pilot Assist is a driver support function designedto simplify driving and assist the driver in manysituations. However, the driver is always responsi-ble for maintaining a suitable distance to vehiclesor objects around it and ensuring that the vehicleis correctly positioned in the traffic lane.
WARNING
In some situations, Pilot Assist may have trou-ble helping the driver properly or may bedeactivated automatically – we advise againstusing Pilot Assist in such cases. Examples ofsuch situations include:
the lane markings are worn, missing orcross each other.
lane division is unclear, for example, whenthe lanes divide or merge or at exits orwhen there are multiple sets of markings.
edges or other lines than lane markingsare present on or near the road, e.g.curbs, joints or repairs to the road sur-face, edges of barriers, roadside edges orstrong shadows.
the lane is narrow or winding.
the lane contains ridges or holes.
weather conditions are poor, e.g. rain,snow or fog or slush or reduced visibilitywith poor light conditions, backlighting,wet road surface, etc.
The driver should also note that Pilot Assisthas the following limitations:
High curbs, roadside barriers, temporaryobstacles (traffic cones, safety barriers,etc.) are not detected. Alternatively, theymay be detected incorrectly as lane mark-ings, with a subsequent risk of contactbetween the vehicle and such obstacles.
The driver is responsible for ensuring thatthe vehicle maintains a suitable distancefrom such obstacles.
The camera and radar sensors do nothave the capacity to detect all oncomingobjects and obstacles in traffic environ-ments, e.g. potholes, stationary obstaclesor objects that completely or partiallyblock the route.
Pilot Assist does not "see" pedestrians,animals, etc.
The recommended steering input is lim-ited in force, which means that it cannotalways help the driver to steer and keepthe vehicle within the lane.
In vehicles equipped with SensusNavigation*, the function is able to useinformation from map data, which couldcause variations in performance.
Pilot Assist is switched off if the powersteering is working with reduced power -e.g. during cooling due to overheating(see section "Speed-dependent steeringforce").
The driver can always correct or adjust steeringassistance provided by Pilot Assist by turning thesteering wheel to the desired position.
