330 If a passing vehicle's speed is more than 15 km/h (9 mph) faster than your vehicle, BLISwill not react.
NOTE
The light illuminates on the side of the vehicle where the system has detected thevehicle. If the vehicle is passed on bothsides simultaneously, both lights come on.
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
The Cross Traffic Alert (CTA) function with auto brake may have limited functionality in
certain situations. Auto-brake is active atspeeds under 15 km/h (9.3 mph).
WARNING
The auto-brake sub-function can only
detect and apply the brakes for other mov- ing vehicles – not for e.g. stationary obsta-
cles, cyclists or pedestrians.
CTA has certain limitations – The CTA sen- sors, for example, cannot "see" through otherparked vehicles or objects blocking the vehi-cle. Below are a few examples of situations in which CTA's field of vision may be initially lim-ited and approaching vehicles may thereforenot be detected until they are very close toyour vehicle:
69 Warning for crossing traffic when the vehicle is backing up.
70 Warning for crossing traffic when the vehicle is backing up.

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.
Side sensors
The warning signal will begin pulsating rapidly when the obstacle is less than approx. 25 cm (0.8 ft) fromthe vehicle.
Park Assist's side sensors are automatically activated when the engine is started. They areactive at speeds below 10 km/h (6 mph). The distance monitored is approx. 25 cm (0.8 ft) out from the sides. The detection area of the side sensors increa- ses significantly, however, when the steering angle of the front wheel increases and depending on the position of the steeringwheel, obstacles up to approx. 90 cm (3 ft)

Automatically deactivating the cameraFront view switches off when the vehicle'sspeed reaches 25 km/h (16 mph) to help avoiddistracting the driver. It will be automaticallyreactivated if the vehicle's speed falls below22 km/h (14 mph) within 1 minute as long asthe vehicle's speed has not exceeded 50 km/h(31 mph). Other camera views switch off at 15 km/h (9 mph) and are not reactivated.

Using Park Assist Pilot *
Park Assist Pilot (PAP 98
) helps the driver park
using three different steps. The function can also help the driver pull out of a parkingspace.
The function measures the space and steers the vehicle. The driver's role is to:
keep close watch of the area around thevehicle
follow the instructions on the center dis-play
change gears (reverse/forward) – an audi-ble signal indicates when the driver needsto change gears
regulating and maintaining a safe speed
applying the brakes and stopping the vehi-cle.
Information about the actions required by thedriver are provided in the center display usingsymbols, graphics and/or text. The function can be activated if the following criteria have been met after the engine isstarted:
Your vehicle's speed is lower than30 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 the function is lookingfor parking.
Parking with Park Assist PilotThe function helps park 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 and apply the brakes).
Searching and measuring potential parking spots
The function can be activated in the center display's Func-tion view. It can also be accessed from the camera views.
GREEN button indicator light – the func- tion is activated.
GRAY button indicator light – the functionis deactivated.
Parallel parking search overview.
Perpendicular parking search overview.
The vehicle's speed may not exceed 30 km/h (20 mph) when parallel parking or 20 km/h(12 mph) when perpendicular parking.

HYBRID INFORMATION
380
General information about Twin Engine Twin Engine vehicles are driven just like any other vehicle, but certain functions differ froma vehicle powered exclusively by gasoline.The electric motor powers the vehicle primar-ily at low speeds; the gasoline engine is usedat higher speeds or during more active driv-ing.
The instrument panel displays Twin Engine- specific information - charging information,selected drive mode, distance to dischargedbattery and hybrid battery charge level. Different drive modes can be selected while driving, e.g. electric power only or, if morepower is needed, a combination of electric andgasoline power. The vehicle calculates a com-bination of driveability, driving experience,environmental impact and fuel economy forthe selected drive mode. In order to function optimally, the hybrid bat- tery (and its electrical drive systems) and thegasoline engine (and its drive systems) mustbe at the correct operating temperature. Bat-tery capacity can be considerably reduced ifthe battery is too cold or too hot. Precondi-tioning prepares the vehicle's drive systemsand passenger compartment before driving tohelp reduce both wear and energy consump-tion. It also helps increase the hybrid battery'srange.The hybrid battery which powers the electricmotor is recharged using the charging cable. Itcan also be recharged during light braking andthrough engine braking in gear position
B. The
combustion engine can also help recharge thehybrid battery.
Important
No electrical current
Keep in mind that if there is no electrical cur- rent to the vehicle, i.e. the ignition is switchedoff or the start battery is discharged, certainfunctions such as brakes, power steering, etc.will not work.
WARNING
If the vehicle does not have electrical cur- rent and both the electric motor and thegasoline engine are switched off, thebrakes cannot be used to stop the vehicle.
Towing not permitted
Never tow a Twin Engine vehicle behind another vehicle, as this could damage theelectric motor.
Exterior engine noise
Because there is no sound from the engine when only the electric motor is running, thevehicle is equipped with artificial exteriorbackground noise. This sound is intended tohelp warn children, pedestrians, cyclists, ani- mals, etc. outside the vehicle of the vehicle'sapproach.
High-voltage electrical current
WARNING
A number of electrical components in Twin Engine Plug-in Hybrid vehicles use high-voltage current and can be extremely dan-gerous if handled incorrectly. These com-ponents and any orange wiring in the vehi-cle may only be handled by trained andqualified Volvo service technicians.
Do not touch anything that is not clearly described in this Owner's Manual.
