Driver Alert Control limitations
Driver Alert Control (DAC) functionality may be reduced in certain situations.
In certain situations, the system may provide a warning even if it has not detected a change indriving behavior, e.g.: in strong crosswinds
on grooved road surfaces.
WARNING
In certain cases, driving behavior might not be affected despite the driver's fatigue – when using the Pilot Assist
* function –
resulting in the driver not getting a warning from DAC. It is therefore very important to always stop and take a break at the slightest signof fatigue, regardless of whether the func-tion has issued a warning or not.
NOTE
The function uses the vehicle's camera and radar sensor, which has certain generallimitations.

The Distance Alert function can help the driver become aware if the time interval tothe vehicle in front is too short. The vehicle must be equipped with a head-up display * in
order to display Distance Alert.
Symbol for Distance Alert on the windshield with head-up display
In vehicles equipped with a head-up display, a symbol will be displayed on the windshield aslong as the time interval to the vehicle aheadis shorter than the set time interval. However, the
Show Driver Support function must be
activated under Settings in the vehicle's menu system. Distance Alert is active at speeds above 30 km/h (20 mph) and only reacts for vehicles ahead moving in the same directionas your vehicle. No distance information isprovided for oncoming, slow-moving or sta-tionary vehicles.
NOTE
Visual warnings on the windshield may be difficult to notice in cases of strong sun-light, reflections, extreme light contrasts,or if the driver is wearing sunglasses or isnot looking straight ahead.
NOTE
Distance Alert is deactivated while Adap- tive Cruise Control
* or Pilot Assist * is
active.
WARNING
Distance Alert only reacts of the time inter- val to the vehicle ahead is shorter than thepreset value – vehicle speed is not affec-ted.

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.
The function has certain limitations – the sen- sors, for example, cannot "see" through otherparked vehicles or objects blocking the vehi-cle. Below are a few examples of situations in which the function's field of vision may be ini-tially limited and approaching vehicles maytherefore not be detected until they are veryclose to your vehicle:

Park Assist (PAS 102
) behaves differently
depending on which part of the vehicle is approaching an obstacle.
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.
102 Park Assist System

DRIVER SUPPORT
* Option/accessory.
358 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.

Side sensor fields
Warning signals vary depending on the vehi- cle's intended direction of travel. Dependingon the steering wheel position, warnings maybe given for obstacles diagonally in front of orbehind the vehicle, not only directly behind thevehicle.
Parking sensor sectors where obstacles can be detected.
Left-side front sensor field
Obstacle sector in the vehicle's intended direction of travel forward – varies accord-ing to steering wheel position
Sector with RED field color and rapidly pulsing tone
Right-side rear sensor field
Obstacle sector in the vehicle's intended direction of travel rearward – variesaccording to steering wheel position.
The color of the side field changes as the vehi-cle moves closer to the object – from YEL-LOW to RED.
Side field color Distance in meters
(feet)
Yellow 0.25–0.9 (0.8–3.0) Red 0–0.25 (0–0.8)
When the sensor field is RED, the audible pulsing signal will become more rapid.

Leaving a parallel parking space with Park Assist Pilot *
The
Park Out function can help the driver to
pull out of a parking space when the vehicle is parallel-parked.
NOTE
Leaving a parking space with the Park Outfunction should only be used in connection with parallel parking – it does not work forperpendicular parking.
The Park Out function is acti-
vated in the center display's Function view or in Cameraview.
GREEN button indicator light – the func- tion is activated.
GRAY button indicator light – the functionis deactivated.
1. Tap
Park Out in Function view or in Cam-
era view.
2. Move the gear selector to the suitable position (e.g. D or R) for the direction in which you will be pulling out of the park-ing space. 3. Be prepared to stop the vehicle when
instructed to do so by a graphic and mes-sage in the center display. Follow theinstructions in the same way as for theparking procedure.
Note that the steering wheel can "spring"back when the procedure is completed andthe driver may need to turn the steering wheelback to the maximum position in order to pullout of the parking space. If the function determines that the driver can pull out of the parking space without any extramaneuvers, the function will be deactivated,even if it seems as though the vehicle is notcompletely out of the parking space.

detect all conditions in all situations and func- tionality may therefore be limited.
The driver should be aware of the following limitations for Park Assist Pilot.
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.
CAUTION
Objects situated higher than the detection area of the sensors are not included whenthe parking maneuver is calculated, whichcould cause the function to swing into theparking space too early. Such parkingspaces should be avoided for this reason.
