WARNING
When Adaptive Cruise Control follows anothervehicle at speeds over approx. 30 km/h(20 mph) and changes target vehicle – from amoving vehicle to a stationary one – AdaptiveCruise Control will ignore the stationary vehi-cle and instead accelerate to the storedspeed.
The driver must then intervene and applythe brakes.

Automatic standby mode when switching
targets
Adaptive Cruise Control will be disabled and gointo standby mode:
if your vehicle's speed goes below 5 km/h(3 mph) and Adaptive Cruise Control cannotdetermine if the target object is a stationaryvehicle 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 thatAdaptive Cruise Control no longer has a vehi-cle to follow.

Automatic braking with AdaptiveCruise Control
The Adaptive cruise control (ACC47) has a spe-cial brake function in slow traffic and while sta-tionary.
Braking function in slow traffic and at a
standstill
In slow-moving, stop-and-go traffic or when stop-ped at a traffic light, driving will resume automati-cally if the vehicle is stopped for less thanapprox. 3 seconds. If it takes more than 3 sec-onds for the vehicle ahead to begin moving again,Adaptive Cruise Control will go into standbymode and the Auto-hold brake function will acti-vate.
–Adaptive Cruise Control can be reactivated inone of the following ways:
Pressing the button on the steeringwheel keypad.
Pressing the accelerator pedal.
> Adaptive Cruise Control will resume fol-lowing the vehicle ahead if it begins tomove within approx. 6 seconds.
NOTE
ACC can keep the vehicle stationary for nomore than 5 minutes – after that time theparking brake is applied and Adaptive CruiseControl is deactivated.
The parking brake must be released beforeAdaptive Cruise Control can be reactivated.

Deactivation of the Auto-hold brake function
In certain situations, Auto-hold will be deactivatedwhen the vehicle is at a standstill and AdaptiveCruise Control will go into standby mode. Thismeans that the brakes will be released and thevehicle could begin to roll. The driver mustactively apply the brakes to keep the vehicle sta-tionary.
This can occur if:
the driver depresses the brake pedal
the parking brake is applied
the gear selector is moved to the P, N or Rpositions
the driver puts Adaptive Cruise Control instandby mode.

Auto Activate Parking Brake
In certain situations, the parking brake will beapplied to keep the vehicle at a standstill.

Adaptive Cruise Control limitations
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC48) may have lim-ited functionality in certain situations.
Steep roads and/or heavy loads
Adaptive Cruise Control is primarily intended tobe driven on flat roads. The function may not beable to maintain the correct time interval to thevehicle ahead when driving down steep hills. Thedriver should be extra attentive and prepared toapply the brakes.
Do not use Adaptive Cruise Control if thevehicle is carrying a heavy load or towing atrailer.

Other limitations
The Off Road drive mode cannot beselected if Adaptive Cruise Control is acti-vated.

NOTE
The function uses the vehicle's combinedcamera and radar unit, which has certain gen-eral limitations; see sections "Camera limita-tions" and "Radar sensor limitations".

Pilot Assist
Pilot Assist 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.

How Pilot Assist works
The Pilot Assist function is primarily intended foruse on highways and other major roads where itcan help provide a more comfortable and relaxingdriving experience.
The camera/radar sensor monitors the distance to thevehicle ahead and detects lane markings52.
Camera and radar sensor
Distance monitor
Lane marker line monitors
The driver sets the desired speed and distance tothe vehicle ahead. Pilot Assist monitors the dis-tance to the vehicle ahead and the traffic lane'sside markers using the camera and radar sensor.The system maintains the set time interval to thevehicle ahead by automatically adjusting yourvehicle's speed and keeps your vehicle in its laneby providing steering assistance.
Pilot Assist's steering assistance is based onmonitoring the direction of the vehicle ahead andthe traffic lane's side marker lines. The driver canoverride Pilot Assist's steering recommendationsat any time and steer in another direction, e.g. tochange lanes or avoid obstacles on the road.
If the camera/radar sensor cannot detect thelane's side marker lines or if Pilot Assist is unablefor some other reason to clearly interpret thelane, Pilot Assist will temporarily deactivate steer-ing assistance until it can once again interpretthe lane markings. However, the speed and dis-tance warnings will remain active.

WARNING
Pilot Assist is deactivated automatically andresumes working without prior notice.
The color of the steering wheelsymbol indicates the currentstatus of steering assistance:
• GREEN indicates that steer-ing assistance is active
• GRAY (as shown in illustra-tion) indicates that steering assistance is deacti-vated.
52Note: This illustration is general and details may vary depending on model.

WARNING
The Pilot Assist function is supplementarydriver support intended to facilitate driv-ing and help make it safer – it cannothandle all situations in all traffic, weatherand road conditions.
The driver is advised to read all sectionsin the Owner's Manual about this functionto learn of its limitations, which the drivermust be aware of before using the func-tion (see the link list at the end of thisarticle).
Pilot Assist should only be used if thereare clear lane lines painted on each sideof the lane. All other use will increase therisk of contact with nearby obstacles thatcannot be detected by the functions.
Pilot Assist is not a substitute for the driv-er's attention and judgment. The driver isalways responsible for ensuring the vehi-cle is driven in a safe manner, at theproper position within the lane, at theappropriate speed, with an appropriatedistance to other vehicles, and in accord-ance with current traffic rules and regula-tions.
NOTE
Depending on market, this function may beeither Standard or Optional.
Pilot Assist regulates speed by accelerating andbraking. It is normal for the brakes to emit a slightsound when they are being used to adjust speed.
Pilot Assist attempts to smoothly regulate speed.The driver must apply the brakes in situationsrequiring immediate braking. For example, whenthere are great differences in speed betweenvehicles or if the vehicle ahead brakes suddenly.Due to limitations in the camera and radar sen-sor, braking may occur unexpectedly or not at all.
Pilot Assist is designed to follow a vehicle aheadin the same lane and maintain a time interval tothat vehicle set by the driver. If the radar sensordoes not detect a vehicle ahead, it will insteadmaintain the speed set by the driver. This will alsohappen if the speed of the vehicle aheadexceeds the set speed for your vehicle.
Pilot Assist can follow another vehicle atspeeds from a standstill up to 200 km/h(125 mph).
Pilot Assist can provide steering assistancefrom near-stationary speeds up to 140 km/h(87 mph).
WARNING
Pilot Assist is not a collision avoidancesystem. The driver must intervene if thesystem fails to detect a vehicle ahead.
Pilot Assist does not brake for people,animals, objects, small vehicles (e.g.cycles and motorcycles), low trailers aswell as oncoming, slow or stationary vehi-cles.
Do not use Pilot Assist in demanding sit-uations, such as in city traffic, at intersec-tions, on slippery surfaces, with a lot ofwater or slush on the road, in heavy rain/snow, in poor visibility, on winding roads,on highway on- or off-ramps, or with atrailer connected to the vehicle.

CAUTION
Maintenance of the integrated components inPilot Assist may only be performed by a work-shop – an authorized Volvo workshop is rec-ommended.

In curves and forks in the road
Pilot Assist is designed to interact with the driver.The driver should never wait for steering assis-tance from Pilot Assist, but instead should alwaysbe ready to increase his or her own steeringefforts, particularly in curves.

DRIVER SUPPORT
310
When the vehicle is approaching an off-rampor a fork in the road, the driver should steertoward the desired lane to indicate to PilotAssist the desired direction of travel.

Pilot Assist strives to keep the vehicle
in the center of the lane
When Pilot Assist provides steering assistance, itstrives to position the vehicle in the center of thelane between the lane markings. For the smooth-est driving experience possible, the driver shouldpermit the vehicle to find the optimal positioning.The driver should check that the vehicle is posi-tioned safely in the lane and can always adjustthe vehicle's position by applying more force tothe steering wheel.
If Pilot Assist does not position the vehicleappropriately in the lane, the driver shouldturn off Pilot Assist or switch to AdaptiveCruise Control.
