Park Assist Camera *
Blind sectors
There are "blind" sectors between the cameras' fields of vision.
With Park Assist Camera's 360° view *
selected, objects/obstacles may not be detected if they are located in the "joints"where the edges of the individual cameraviews meet.
WARNING
Even if it seems as though only a fairly small section of the screen image isobstructed, this may mean that a relativelylarge sector is hidden and obstacles theremay not be detected until they are verynear the vehicle.
Defective camera
If a camera sector is dark and contains this symbol, thisindicates that the camera isnot functioning properly. See the following illustration for an example.
The vehicle's left-side camera is malfunctioning.
A dark camera sector may also be displayed in the following situations, but without the
defective camera symbol: a door is open
the trunk lid is open
a rearview mirror is folded in
Lighting conditions
The camera image is automatically adjusted according to the current lighting conditions.This means that the brightness and quality of the image may vary slightly. Poor lighting con-ditions may result in reduced image quality.
Rear Park Assist Camera
WARNING
Be extra cautious when reversing if this symbol isshown when a trailer, bikecarrier or similar isattached and electricallyconnected to the vehicle. The symbol indicates that
the rear parking assist sensors are deacti-
vated and will not warn of any obstacles.
NOTE
A bike carrier and other accessories moun- ted on the rear of the vehicle can obscurethe camera's view.

Rear Collision Warning *62
The Rear Collision Warning 63
(RCW) function
can help the driver avoid rear-end collisions from vehicles approaching from behind.
The function can alert drivers of following vehi- cles of the risk of a collision by rapidly flashingthe turn signals. If, at a speed below 30 km/h (20 mph), the function detects that the vehicle is in dangerof being hit from behind, the seat belt tension-ers may tension the front seat belts. TheWhiplash Protection System will also be acti-vated in a collision. Immediately before a collision from behind, the function may also activate the brakes inorder to reduce the forward acceleration of thevehicle during the collision. However, thebrakes will only be applied if your vehicle isstationary. The brakes will be immediatelyreleased if the accelerator pedal is depressed. The function is automatically activated each time the engine is started.
WARNING
The function is supplementary driver support intended to facilitate drivingand help make it safer – it cannot han-dle all situations in all traffic, weatherand road conditions.
The driver is advised to read all sec-tions in the Owner's Manual about thisfunction to learn of its limitations,which the driver must be aware ofbefore using the function.
Driver support functions are not a sub-stitute for the driver's attention andjudgment. The driver is always respon-sible for ensuring the vehicle is drivenin a safe manner, at the appropriatespeed, with an appropriate distance toother vehicles, and in accordance withcurrent traffic rules and regulations.

limitations In some situations, it may be difficult for Rear Collision Warning (RCW) to warn the driverof a collision risk.
This may be the case if: the vehicle approaching from the rear is detected at a late stage
the vehicle approaching from the rearchanges lanes at a late stage
a trailer, bicycle holder or similar is con-nected to the vehicle's electrical system -the function will then be automaticallydeactivated.
NOTE
In certain markets RCW does
not warn

BLIS 67
functionality may be reduced in cer-
tain situations.
Keep the marked area clean (on both the left and right sides of the vehicle) 68
.
Examples of limitations:
Dirt, ice and snow covering the sensors may reduce functionality and prevent thesystem from providing warnings.
The BLIS function is automatically deacti-vated if a trailer, bicycle holder or similar isconnected to the vehicle's electrical sys-tem.
For BLIS to function effectively, bicycleholders, luggage racks or similar shouldnot be mounted on the vehicle's towbar.
WARNING
BLIS does not work in sharp curves.
BLIS does not work when the vehicle is being reversed.
NOTE
The function uses the vehicle's camera and radar sensor, which has certain generallimitations.

DRIVER SUPPORT
* Option/accessory.327
The vehicle is parked very far into a parking space.
In a diagonal parking space, CTA may be completely "blind" on one side of your vehicle.
CTA's blind zone.
CTA's field of vision.
However, as you back your vehicle slowly out of a parking space, CTA's field of vision changes in relation to the obstructing vehicle/object and its blind zone is reduced.
Examples of further limitations
The
auto brake sub-function only detects
vehicles in motion and may therefore not
"see" and brake for e.g. stationary obsta- cles, a cyclists or a pedestrian.
Dirt, ice and snow covering the sensorsmay reduce functionality and prevent thesystem from providing warnings.
CTA is automatically deactivated if atrailer, bicycle holder or similar is con-nected to the vehicle's electrical system.
For CTA to function effectively, bicycleholders, luggage racks or similar shouldnot be mounted on the vehicle's towbar.

Park Assist front, rear and sides *
Park Assist behaves differently depending on which part of the vehicle is approaching anobstacle.
Front camera
The warning signal has a continuous tone when the obstacle is less than approx. 30 cm (1 ft) from thevehicle.
The Park Assist system's front sensors are automatically activated when the engine isstarted. They are active at speedsbelow 10 km/h (6 mph). The distance monitored extends approx. 80 cm (2.5 ft) in front of the vehicle.
NOTE
The Park Assist system is deactivated when the parking brake is used or when P
is selected on vehicles with automatictransmission.
CAUTION
When installing auxiliary lights: Make sure these do not obscure the sensors – theauxiliary lights could be perceived as anobstacle.
Back
The warning signal has a continuous tone when the obstacle is less than approx. 30 cm (1 ft) from thevehicle.
The rear sensors will be activated if the vehicle begins rolling backward or if reverse gear isengaged. The distance monitored extends approx. 1.5 meters (5 ft) behind the vehicle. The Park Assist system's rear sensors will be automatically deactivated if the vehicle isbacking up with a trailer connected to thevehicle's electrical system.
NOTE
When reversing with e.g. a trailer or bike carrier on the trailer hitch – without Volvooriginal trailer cables – the Parking Assistsystem may have to be turned off manuallyto prevent the sensors from reacting tothese.
