386 Steering assistance during collision
risks from behind*
If you become distracted and do not notice your
vehicle starting to veer out of the lane while
another vehicle is approaching from behind or is
in your vehicle's blind spot, this sub-function can
help provide assistance. The function provides assistance by steering your vehi-
cle back into your own lane.
Another vehicle in blind spot zone
Own vehicle
If your vehicle is beginning to veer out of your
lane while another vehicle is in your blind spot or
another vehicle is rapidly approaching in the next
lane, this function can help the driver steer the
vehicle back into its own lane.
Even if the driver intentionally changes lanes
using a turn signal without noticing another vehi- cle approaching, the function can provide assis-
tance.
The function is active at speeds between
60-140 km/h (37-87 mph) on roads with clearly
visible traffic lane markings/lines.
After the system has automatically intervened,
this text message will appear in the instrument
panel:
Collision avoidance assistance –
Automatic intervention
WARNING
The "Steering assistance at risk of rear-
end collision" subfunction is supplemen-
tary driver support intended to improve
driving safety – it cannot handle all situa-
tions in all traffic, weather and road condi-
tions.
Pilot Assist is only activated if there is a
high risk of collision – you must therefore
never wait for the function to intervene.
The function is 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 accord-
ance with current traffic rules and regula-
tions.

390 Park Assist*
The Park Assist function can help the driver
when maneuvering in tight spaces by indicating
distances to obstacles using audible signals and
graphics in the center display. Display view showing obstacle zones and sensor sec-
tors.
The center display shows an overview of the vehi-
cle in relation to objects that have been detected.
The marked sector indicates where the obstacle
is located. The closer the vehicle symbol is to a
marked sector forward/rearward, the closer the
detected obstacle is to your vehicle.
The side sectors change color as the distance
between the vehicle and an object decreases.
The audible signals will also speed up the closer
the obstacle is to the vehicle. The volume of the
audio system will be automatically lowered. Audible signals for obstacles in front and to the
sides of the vehicle are active when the vehicle is
moving but will cease after the vehicle has been
stationary for approx. 2 seconds. Audible signals
for obstacles behind the vehicle will remain active
even when the vehicle is stationary.
If a detected obstacle is within approx. 30 cm
(1 ft) from the front or rear of the vehicle, the
tone will become constant and the active sen-
sor's field closest to the vehicle symbol will be
filled in.
At distances within approx. 25 cm (0.8 ft) from an
obstacle to the sides of the vehicle, an rapid puls-
ing signal will be given and the active sector
fields will change color from ORANGE to RED.
The volume of the Park Assist audible signals
can be adjusted while the signal is being given
using the >II knob or in the center display's Top
view under Settings.
NOTE
Besides in the sector closest to the vehi-
cle symbol, audible warnings are only pro-
vided for objects located directly in the
vehicle's path.
WARNING
The Parking Assist function is supple-
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 sensors have dead/blind
spots where objects cannot be detected.
Pay particular attention to people and
animals near the vehicle.
Parking Assist is not a substitute for the
driver's attention and judgment. The driver

406 Park Assist Pilot*
Park Assist Pilot (
PAP 122
) helps the driver pull
into and out of parking spaces.
PAP first checks whether there
is sufficient space and then
steers the car into the space.
The center display uses sym-
bols, graphics and messages to
inform the driver of what steps
need to be taken and when.
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.
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.
NOTE The PAP function measures the space and
steers the vehicle – the driver's role is to:
keep close watch of the area around the
vehicle
follow the instructions on the center dis-
play
change gears (reverse/forward) – a
"ping" sound indicates when the driver
should change gears
regulate and maintain a safe speed
apply the brakes and stop.

408Parking with Park Assist Pilot
Park Assist Pilot (PAP 124
) helps the driver park
using three different steps. The function can also
help the driver pull out of a parking space.
NOTE The PAP function measures the space and
steers the vehicle – the driver's role is to:
keep close watch of the area around the
vehicle
follow the instructions on the center dis-
play
change gears (reverse/forward) – a
"ping" sound indicates when the driver
should change gears
regulate and maintain a safe speed
apply the brakes and stop. Information about the actions required by the
driver are provided in the center display using
symbols, graphics and/or text.
PAP can be activated if the following criteria have
been met after the engine is started:
No trailer is hitched to the vehicle
Your vehicle's speed is lower than 30 km/h
(20 mph).
NOTE The distance between the vehicle and parking
spots should be 0.5-1.5 meters (1.6-5.0 ft)
when PAP is looking for parking.
ParkingPAP parks the vehicle using the following steps:
1. The system searches for and measures
potential parking spaces.
2. The vehicle is steered while it is backing into the parking space.
3. The vehicle is positioned in the parking space (the driver may be prompted to shift
gears).
Searching for and measuring potential
parking spots
The function can be activated
in the center display's Function
view.
It can also be accessed from
the camera views. Parallel parking overview.

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.
NOTE Dirt, ice and snow covering the sensors
reduce their function and can make measure-
ment impossible.
Driver responsibilityThe driver should keep in mind that PAP is a
parking aid ‒ not an infallible fully automatic sys-
tem. The driver must always be prepared to take
control and cancel a parking sequence if neces-
sary.
There are a number of things to keep in mind
when parking, including:
The driver is always responsible for determin-
ing if the space suggested by PAP is suita-
ble for parking.
Do not use PAP when using snow chains or
a temporary spare tire.
Do not use PAP if there are any objects pro-
truding from the vehicle.
Heavy rain or snowfall may inhibit PAP's abil-
ity to accurately measure a parking space.
While searching and measuring the parking
space, PAP may be unable to detect objects
located far into the space.
PAP may not suggest parking spaces on
narrow streets if it does not detect sufficient
space for maneuvering the vehicle.
Use approved tires 126
inflated to the correct
tire pressure because this affects PAP's abil-
ity to provide parking assistance.
PAP's function is based on the way the vehi-
cles are parked behind and in front of your
parking space. If they are, for example,
parked too close to the curb, there is a risk
that your vehicle's tires or wheel rims could
be damaged by the curb during the parking
procedure.
Perpendicular parking spaces may not be
detected or may be suggested unnecessarily
if a parked vehicle is sticking out more than
other parked vehicles.
PAP is intended to provide parking assis-
tance on straight streets, not sections of
street with sharp curves or bends. Always
make sure that your vehicle is parallel to rel-
evant parking spaces when PAP is measur-
ing the parking space.
CAUTION Switching to another approved wheel and/or
tire dimension could change the tire circum-
ference, which would then require the PAP
system to be updated. Consult a workshop –
an authorized Volvo workshop is recom-
mended.
126
"Approved tires" refers to tires of the same type and make as the vehicl\
e's original, factory-installed tires.
