Parking lights
The parking lights can be used to help other road users see the vehicle if it is stopped orparked. Use the lighting ring on the steeringwheel lever to turn on the parking lights.
Lighting ring in the parking light position.
Turn the lighting ring to the position to
turn on the parking lights (the license plate lighting will also illuminate). Canadian models: If the ignition is in the II
position, the daytime running lights will illumi- nate instead of the front parking lights. Withthe lighting ring in this position, the parkinglights will remain on regardless of what posi-tion the ignition is in. US models: When
mode is selected,
the daytime running lights can be deactivated in the center display. The parking lights willalso be deactivated. In weak daylight or dark conditions, the parking lights and low beamswill be illuminated. In dark conditions, the rear parking lights also illuminate when the tailgate is opened to alertfollowing traffic. This happens regardless ofwhat position the lighting ring or ignition is in.

With the steering wheel lever's lighting ring in the
position, the daytime running lights
(DRL 1
) will illuminate when the vehicle is
driven in daylight conditions. The headlights will switch automatically from daytime run-ning lights to low beams in weak daylight ordark conditions. The headlights will also switch to low beams if the front fog lights *
and/or rear fog light are activated.

WINDOWS, GLASS AND MIRRORS
* Option/accessory.

Adjusting the rearview mirror dimming function
Bright light entering the vehicle from behind, e.g. from the headlights of following vehicles,could reflect in the rearview mirror and doormirrors and cause a glare. Use the dimmingfunction when light from behind is distract-ing.
Auto-dimIf bright light enters the vehicle from behind, the door mirrors will automatically dim. Auto-dim is always active when the engine is run-ning, except when reverse gear is engaged.
NOTE
Adjustments to the sensitivity level will not be noticeable immediately but will insteadtake effect after a short period of time.
The sensitivity level for dimming will affect both the rearview mirror and door mirrors. To change the dimming sensitivity level:1. Tap
Settings in the Top view in the center
display.
2. Tap
My CarMirrors and Convenience.
3. Under
Rearview Mirror Auto Dimming,
select Normal, Dark or Light. The rearview mirror instead has two sensors - one pointing forward and one pointing rear-ward - which work together to identify andeliminate glare. The forward-pointing sensormonitors ambient light, while the rearward-pointing sensor monitors light from the head-lights of following vehicles. For the door mirrors to be equipped with auto- dim, the rearview mirror must also be equip-ped with auto-dim.
NOTE
If the sensors are obstructed by e.g. a parking permit, transponder, sunshade orobjects on the seats or in the cargo com-partment in a way that prevents light fromreaching the sensors, the auto-dim func-tion in the door and rearview mirrors willbe reduced.

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 tailgate 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.

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.
NOTE
The function uses the vehicle's camera and radar sensor, which has certain generallimitations.

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.

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 steeringangle of the front wheel increases anddepending on the position of the steeringwheel, obstacles up to approx. 90 cm (3 ft)diagonally behind or in front of the vehicle canbe detected.

Park Assist limitations (p. 363)
Park Assist limitations Park Assist may not be able to detect all con- ditions in all situations and functionality maytherefore be limited in certain cases.
The driver should be aware of the following limitations for Park Assist:
WARNING
The parking sensors have dead/blind spots where objects cannot bedetected.
Pay particular attention to people andanimals near the vehicle.
Bear in mind that the front end of thevehicle may swing out towards oncom-ing traffic during the parking maneuver.
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.

CAUTION
Objects such as chains, thin and glossy poles or low obstacles may end up in the"signal shadow" and then go temporarilyundetected by the sensors – the pulsatingtone may then unexpectedly stop insteadof becoming a constant tone as expected. The sensors cannot detect high objects, such as protruding ramps. In such situations, pay extra attention and maneuver/drive the vehicle veryslowly or stop the current parkingmaneuver – there may be a high risk ofdamage to the vehicle or other objectssince information from the sensors isnot always reliable in such situations.
CAUTION
In some circumstances, the Park Assist System may produce false warnings due toexternal sound sources with the sameultrasonic frequencies as those the systemworks with. Examples of such sources are horns, wet tires on asphalt, pneumatic brakes, exhaustnoise from motorcycles, etc.
NOTE
When a trailer hitch is configured with the vehicle electrical system, the trailer hitchprotrusion is included when the functionmeasures the distance to objects behindthe vehicle.
