additional power to wheels that are not spin-
ning.

This function can also help prevent the wheels
from spinning while the vehicle is accelerating.

Engine drag control

Engine drag control (EDC

3

) can help prevent

inadvertent wheel lock, e.g. after downshifting
or using engine braking when driving at low
speeds on a slippery surface.

Inadvertent wheel lock while driving could
impair the driver's ability to steer the vehicle.

Trailer Stability Assist

*

4

Trailer Stability Assist (TSA

5

) is designed to

help stabilize a vehicle that is towing a trailer if
the vehicle and trailer have begun to sway.

NOTE

Trailer Stability Assist is deactivated if 

ESC

Sport Mode

 is activated.

Roll Stability Control

This function helps reduce the risk of a rollover
in the event of e.g. a sudden evasive maneuver
or if the vehicle begins to skid. The system
monitors the lateral angle at which the vehicle

is leaning and registers any changes. Using
this information, the system calculates the
likelihood of a rollover. If there is an imminent
risk of a rollover, Electronic Stability Control is
activated, engine torque is reduced and brakes
are applied to one or more of the wheels until
the vehicle has regained stability.

WARNING

The vehicle’s stability systems help

improve vehicle safety but do not replace

the driver’s responsibility for operating the

vehicle in a safe manner. Speed and driving

style should always be adapted to the cur-

rent road, traffic and weather conditions.

Posted speed limits should always be

respected.

Electronic Stability Control in sport

mode

The stability system (ESC

) is always acti-

vated and cannot be switched off. However,
the driver can select 

ESC Sport Mode

,

which offers more active driving characteris-
tics.

With the 

ESC Sport Mode

 sub-function

selected, intervention from the system is
reduced and more lateral movement is permit-
ted, giving the driver more control of the vehi-
cle than usual.

When 

ESC Sport Mode

 is selected, the func-

tion may seem to be disabled even though it
continues to assist the driver.

NOTE

When 

ESC Sport Mode

 is selected, the

trailer stabilizer (TSA

) is switched off.

ESC Sport Mode

 also helps provide more

traction, even if the vehicle gets stuck or is
driving on a loose surface such as deep snow
or loose sand.

Connected Safety

10

Connected Safety communicates information
between your vehicle and other vehicles via
the Internet

11

. The function is designed to

notify the driver of any hazardous road condi-
tions ahead.

The function can notify the driver if another
vehicle further down the road has activated its
hazard warning flashers or detected slippery
road conditions. You will also be notified if
your own vehicle detects slippery road condi-
tions.

Connected Safety can assist the driver with
the following:

Hazard warning flashers alert

Slippery road alerts

Connected Safety communication between
vehicles only works for vehicles that are equip-
ped with the function and have it activated.

Hazard warning flashers alert

If your vehicle's hazard warning flashers are
activated, information on this can be sent to
other vehicles approaching your location.

When your vehicle
approaches a vehicle with its
hazard warning flashers on,
this symbol will appear in the
instrument panel.

In vehicles equipped with a head-up display,
the warning symbols for Connected Safety
will also be displayed there.

Slippery road alerts

If your own car detects reduced friction
between your tires and the road, information
on this can be sent to vehicles approaching
your own car's position.

As the vehicle approaches
the area affected, this symbol
will be displayed in the instru-
ment panel to alert the driver
of slippery road conditions.
Drivers of other vehicles
receiving information via

Connected Safety will receive similar notifica-
tions as they approach the area.

In vehicles equipped with a head-up display,
the warning symbols for Connected Safety
will also be displayed there.

WARNING

The function is supplementary driver
support intended to facilitate driving
and help make it safer – it cannot han-
dle all situations in all traffic, weather
and road conditions.

Driver support functions are not a sub-
stitute for the driver's attention and
judgment. The driver is always respon-
sible for ensuring the vehicle is driven
in a safe manner, at the appropriate
speed, with an appropriate distance to
other vehicles, and in accordance with
current traffic rules and regulations.

Connected Safety

For Connected Safety to be able to share
information about road conditions with other
drivers, the function must be activated. If you
do not wish to share information, the function
can be deactivated.

Activate or deactivate the
function using this button in
the center display's Function

At activation, the driver must accept the spe-
cial terms and conditions shown in the display
before an Internet connection

12

 can be estab-

lished. The driver must, for example, accept
that data is sent from the vehicle using the
driver's cellular phone.

Even when your vehicle is not connected to
the Internet, you will still be notified if the sys-
tem in your own vehicle detects slippery road
conditions. For Connected Safety to function
at full capacity, your vehicle needs to be con-
nected to the Internet.

Information on vehicles with activated hazard
warning flashers or which have detected slip-
pery road conditions is not always communi-
cated between all vehicles in the affected
area.

This may be the case if:

No or insufficient Internet connection.

The maneuvers (steering wheel move-
ments, acceleration or braking) made by
the vehicles on slippery surfaces are too
weak for friction between the tires and
road to be detected.

Vehicles that have detected slippery road
conditions or activated hazard warning
flashers have not activated the function.

Vehicles that have detected slippery road
conditions or activated hazard warning
flashers are not equipped with the func-
tion.

Insufficient GPS/satellite navigation may
prevent warnings.

Slippery road conditions were detected or
hazard warning flashers were activated on
a road that is not registered in the Volvo
Cars database.

WARNING

The function is supplementary driver
support intended to facilitate driving
and help make it safer – it cannot han-
dle all situations in all traffic, weather
and road conditions.

Driver support functions are not a sub-
stitute for the driver's attention and
judgment. The driver is always respon-
sible for ensuring the vehicle is driven
in a safe manner, at the appropriate
speed, with an appropriate distance to
other vehicles, and in accordance with
current traffic rules and regulations.

Using engine braking instead of
applying the brakes

Cruise Control regulates speed by lightly
applying the brakes. On downgrades, it can
sometimes be desirable to roll a bit faster and
let speed be reduced instead by engine brak-
ing alone. The driver can temporarily disen-
gage the Cruise Control braking function.

To disengage CC:

Press the accelerator pedal about halfway
down and then release it.
> Cruise Control will automatically disen-

gage the automatic brake function and
speed will only be reduced using the
engine braking function.

The vehicle is driven faster than the set
speed for more than 1 minute.

The driver must then control the vehicle's
speed.

Temporarily increasing speed using the accel-
erator pedal, e.g. when passing another vehi-
cle, will not affect the setting. The vehicle will
return to the set speed when the accelerator
pedal is released.

Automatic standby mode

The function may automatically go into
standby mode if one of the following occurs:

The wheels lose traction.

The engine speed (rpm) is too low/high.

The temperature in the brake system
becomes too high.

The vehicle's speed goes below 30 km/h
(20 mph).

The driver must then control the vehicle's
speed.

The camera/radar sensor measures the distance to

the vehicle ahead.

Adaptive Cruise Control can help provide a
more relaxed driving experience on long trips
on highways or long, straight roads with even
traffic flows.

The driver sets a speed and a time interval to
the vehicle ahead. If the camera/radar sensor
detects a slower-moving vehicle ahead, your
vehicle's speed will be automatically adapted
according to the set time interval to that vehi-

cle. When there are no longer slower-moving
vehicles ahead, the vehicle will return to the
set speed.

If the Curve Speed Assist (CSA)

*

 function is

activated, it may also affect the vehicle's
speed.

Adaptive Cruise Control is designed to:

smoothly regulate speed. The driver must
apply the brakes in situations requiring
immediate braking. For example, when
there are great differences in speed
between vehicles or if the vehicle ahead
brakes suddenly. Due to limitations in the
radar sensor, braking may occur unexpect-
edly or not at all.

follow a vehicle ahead in the same lane
and maintain a time interval to that vehicle
set by the driver. If the radar sensor does
not detect a vehicle ahead, it will instead
maintain the speed set by the driver. This
will also happen if the speed of the vehicle
ahead exceeds the set speed for your vehi-
cle.

WARNING

The function is supplementary driver
support intended to facilitate driving
and help make it safer – it cannot han-
dle all situations in all traffic, weather
and road conditions.

Driver support functions are not a sub-
stitute for the driver's attention and
judgment. The driver is always respon-
sible for ensuring the vehicle is driven
in a safe manner, at the appropriate
speed, with an appropriate distance to
other vehicles, and in accordance with
current traffic rules and regulations.

CAUTION

Only a workshop may perform mainte-
nance on driver support components – an
authorized Volvo workshop is recom-
mended.
