When reverse gear is selected, two unbroken
lines are shown graphically which illustrate where
the car's rear wheels will roll with the current
steering wheel angle - this facilitates parallel
parking, reversing into tight spaces and for hitch-
ing a trailer. The car's approximate external
dimensions are illustrated by means of dashed
lines. The park assist lines can be deactivated -
see section Settings (p. 261).

If the car is also equipped with Parking assis-
tance sensors (p. 254)

* then their information is

shown graphically as coloured areas in order to
illustrate distances to detected obstacles, see
heading "Cars with reversing sensors" later in the
text.

The camera is active approx. 5 seconds after
reverse gear has been disengaged or until the
car's speed exceeds 10 km/h (6 mph) forward or
35 km/h (22 mph) backward.

Light conditions

The camera image is adjusted automatically
according to prevailing light conditions. Because
of this, the image may vary slightly in brightness
and quality. Poor light conditions can result in a
slightly reduced image quality.

NOTE

Keep the camera lens clear of dirt, snow and
ice to ensure optimum function. This is partic-
ularly important in poor light.

Park assist lines

Examples of how the park assist lines can be displayed

for the driver.

The lines on the screen are projected as if they
were at ground level behind the car and are
directly related to steering wheel movement,
which shows the driver the path the car will then
take - also when the car is turning.

NOTE

When reversing with a trailer which is not
connected electrically to the car, the lines
on the display show the route the car will
take - not the trailer.

The screen shows no lines when a trailer
is connected electrically to the car's elec-
trical system.

The parking camera is deactivated auto-
matically when towing a trailer if a Volvo
genuine trailer cable is used.

IMPORTANT

Remember, that with the rear camera view
selected, the monitor only displays the area
behind the car. Be aware of the sides and
front of the car when manoeuvring in reverse.

Boundary lines

The system's different lines.

Boundary line, free reversing zone

"Wheel tracks"

The dashed line (1) frames in a zone up to
about 1.5 m back from the bumper. It is also the
limit of the car's most protruding parts, such as
door mirrors and corners - also when the car is
turning.

The wide "wheel tracks" (2) between the side
lines indicate where the wheels will roll and can
extend about 3.2 m back from the bumper if no
obstacle is in the way.

Cars with reversing sensors

*

Coloured fields (one per sensor) show distance.

If the car is also equipped with Parking assis-
tance (p. 254) the distance is shown with col-
oured fields for each sensor that registers an
obstacle.

The colour of the areas changes with decreasing
distance to the obstacle - from light yellow to yel-
low, via orange to red.

The camera can be used to advantage when
hitching a trailer. A park assist line for the tow-
bar's intended "trajectory" toward the trailer can
be shown on the screen - exactly as for the
"wheel tracks".

A choice can be made between showing the
"wheel tracks" or the towbar's trajectory - both
options cannot be shown simultaneously.

1. Press OK/MENU when a camera view is

shown.

2. Turn to reach the 

Tow bar trajectory guide

line

 option with TUNE.

3. Highlight the option by pressing OK/MENU

once and go back out with EXIT.

NOTE

A bike carrier or other accessory mounted on
the rear of the car could obscure the cam-
era's view.

To bear in mind

Pay attention to the possibility that, even if it only
looks like a relatively small part of the image is
obscured, it could be a relatively large sector that
is hidden from view. Obstacles could thereby go
undetected until they are very close to the car.

Keep the camera lens free from dirt, ice and
snow.

Clean the camera lens regularly with luke-
warm water and car shampoo - take care not
to scratch the lens.

Park Assist Pilot (PAP)*

The Park Assist Pilot (PAP – Park Assist Pilot)
helps the driver to park by first checking whether
a space is sufficiently large and then turning the
steering wheel and steering the car into the
space.

The combined instrument panel uses symbols,
graphics and text for when the different steps are
to be carried out.

The On/Off button is on located the centre console.

NOTE

When a towbar is configured with the car's
electrical system, the protrusion of the towbar
is included when the function measures the
parking space.

WARNING

The PAP function is supplementary driver
support intended to facilitate driving and
make it safer – it cannot handle all situa-
tions in all traffic, weather and road condi-
tions.

Be particularly aware of people and ani-
mals near the car.

PAP is not a substitute for the driver's
attention and judgement. The driver is
always responsible for ensuring the car is
driven in a safe manner, at the appropri-
ate speed, with an appropriate distance to
other vehicles, and in accordance with
current traffic rules and regulations.

 or ESC

36

 must not

intervene when the PAP function is activated
- these can be activated in the event of e.g.
steep and slippery surfaces, see the sections
on Foot brake and Stability system ESC
(p. 182) for more information.

A trailer must not be connected to the car.

Speed must be lower than 50 km/h
(30 mph).

Principle for PAP.

The PAP function parks the car using the follow-
ing steps:

1. The function searches for a parking space

and measures it - during measurement,
speed must not exceed 30 km/h (20 mph).

2. The car is steered into the space during

reversing.

3. The car is positioned in the space by means

of driving forward/backward.

NOTE

The PAP function measures the space and
steers the car - the driver's task is to:

keep a close watch around the car

follow the instructions in the combined
instrument panel

change gear (reverse/forward)

control and maintain a safe speed

brake and stop.

NOTE

The distance between the car and parking
spaces should be 0.5-1.5 metres (1.6-5.0 ft)
while PAP is searching for a parking space.

The PAP function searches for a parking space
and checks whether it is big enough. Proceed as
follows:

1. Activate PAP by pressing
this button and do not drive
faster than 30 km/h (20 mph).

2. Keep an eye on the combined instrument

panel and be prepared to stop the car when
the graphics and text so request.

3. Stop the car when the graphics and text so

request.

NOTE

PAP searches the area for parking, displays
instructions and guides the car in on its pas-
senger side. But if required the car can also
be parked on the driver's side of the street:

Activate the direction indicator to the
driver's side - then the system searches
for a parking space on that side of the
car instead.

2 - Reversing in

During the Reversing step, PAP will steer the car
into the parking space. Proceed as follows:

1. Check that the area behind the car is clear,

then engage reverse gear.

2. Reverse slowly and carefully without touching

the steering wheel - and no faster than
7 km/h (4 mph).

3. Keep an eye on the combined instrument

panel and be prepared to stop the car when
the graphics and text so request.

NOTE

Keep your hands away from the steering
wheel when the PAP function is acti-
vated.

Make sure that the steering wheel is not
hindered in any way and can rotate freely.

To achieve optimum results - wait until
the steering wheel is fully turned before
starting to drive backward/forward.

3 - Positioning

When the car has reversed into the parking
space, it must be straightened up and positioned.

1. Engage first gear or D position, wait until the

steering wheel has been turned, then drive
slowly forwards.

2. Stop the car when the graphics and text

message so request.

3. Engage reverse gear and drive backwards

slowly until the graphics and text message
tell you to stop.

The function is deactivated automatically and the
graphics and message show that parking is com-
plete. It may be necessary for the driver to correct
the positioning. Only the driver can determine
whether the car is properly parked.

IMPORTANT

The warning distance is shorter when the
sensors are used by PAP compared with
when Park Assist uses the sensors.

The PAP sequence is stopped:

if the car is driven too quickly - above 7 km/h
(4 mph)

if the driver touches the steering wheel

if the ABS

 function is engaged -

e.g. if a wheel loses grip on a slippery road
surface.

A text message indicates where the PAP
sequence was stopped.

NOTE

Dirt, ice and snow covering the sensors will
reduce their function and may prevent meas-
urement.

IMPORTANT

Under certain circumstances, PAP is unable
to find parking spaces - one reason for this
may be the fact that there is interference with
the sensors from external sound sources
which emit the same ultrasound frequencies
as those with which the system works.

Examples of such sources include horns, wet
tyres on asphalt, pneumatic brakes and
exhaust noises from motorcycles etc.

To bear in mind

The driver should bear in mind that the Park
Assist Pilot is an aid – not an infallible, fully-auto-
matic function. The driver must therefore be pre-
pared to intervene. There are also a few details to
bear in mind while parking, e.g.:

PAP starts out from the current location of
the parked vehicles - if they are inappropri-
ately parked then the car's tyres and wheel
rims may be damaged against kerbs.

PAP is designed for parking on straight
streets, not sharp curves or bends. For this
reason, make sure the car is parallel to the
parking space when PAP measures the
space.

It is not always possible to find parking
spaces on narrow streets since there is not
enough space for manoeuvring. In such park-
ing situations, it helps the system to drive as
close to the side of the road as possible
where you intend to park.

Bear in mind that the front of the car may
swing out towards oncoming traffic while
being parked.

Objects situated higher than the detection
areas of the sensors are not included when
calculations are made for the parking
manoeuvre. This may cause PAP to swing

into the parking space too early, and hence
such parking spaces should be avoided.

The driver is responsible for determining
whether the space selected by PAP is suita-
ble for parking.

Use approved tyres

39

 with the correct tyre

pressure - this affects PAP's ability to park
the car.

Heavy rain or snow may cause the system to
measure the parking space incorrectly.

Do not use PAP if snow chains or a spare
wheel are fitted.

Do not use PAP if loaded objects are pro-
truding from the car.

IMPORTANT

Changing to another approved wheel rim
and/or tyre dimension may involve a changed
tyre circumference, which means that the
PAP system's parameters may then need to
be updated. Consult a workshop - an author-
ised Volvo workshop is recommended.

Maintenance

The PAP sensors are located in the bumpers

40

 - 6 front

and 4 rear.

For the PAP function to work correctly, its sen-
sors must be cleaned regularly with water and car
shampoo.

Remote start (ERS)*

Remote start (ERS – Engine Remote Start)
means that the car's engine can be started
remotely in order to be able to warm up/cool
down the passenger compartment before depar-
ture. Remote start is activated via key and/or via
Volvo On Call

*.

The climate control system starts on automatic
settings. A remote-started engine is activated for
a maximum of 15 minutes; then it is switched off.
After two activations of remote start, the engine
must be started in the normal way before remote
start can be used again.

Engine remote start is only available in cars with
automatic gearbox and cars that have a
bonnet switch

3

 installed.

NOTE

The service life of the remote control key's
battery is affected by the remote start func-
tion. In the event of frequent use of remote
start, the battery should therefore be changed
once per year, see Remote control key -
replacing the battery (p. 164).

Jump starting with another battery

If the starter battery (p. 370) is discharged then
the car can be started with current from another
battery.

When jump starting the car, the following steps
are recommended to avoid short circuits or other
damage:

1. Set the car's electrical system in key position

0, see Key positions - functions at different
levels (p. 77).

2. Check that the donor battery has a voltage of

12 V.

3. If the donor battery is installed in another car

- switch off the donor car's engine and make
sure that the two cars do not touch each
other.

4. Connect one of the red jump lead's clamps

to the donor battery's positive terminal (1).

IMPORTANT

Connect the start cable carefully to avoid
short circuits with other components in the
engine compartment.

5. Open the clips on the front cover of the bat-

tery in your car and remove the cover, see
Starter battery - replacement (p. 372).

6. Connect the red jump lead's other clamp

onto the car's positive terminal (2).

7. Connect one of the black jump lead's clamps

to the donor battery's negative terminal (3).

8. Connect the other clamp to a grounding

point, e.g. right-hand engine mounting at the
top, the outer screw head (4).

9. Check that the jump lead clamps are affixed

securely so that there are no sparks during
the starting attempt.

10. Start the engine of the "donor car" and allow

it to run a few minutes at a speed slightly
higher than idle approx. 1500 rpm.

11. Start the engine in the car with the dis-

charged battery.

IMPORTANT

Do not touch the connections between cable
and car during the starting attempt. There is a
risk of sparks forming.

12. Remove the jump leads in reverse order -

first the black and then the red.
> Make sure that none of the black jump

lead's clamps comes into contact with the
battery's positive terminal or the clamp
connected to the red jump lead.

WARNING

The battery can generate oxyhydrogen
gas, which is highly explosive. A spark can
be formed if a jump lead is connected
incorrectly, and this can be enough for
the battery to explode.

Do not connect the jump leads to any
fuel system component or any moving
part. Be careful of hot engine parts.

The battery contains sulphuric acid, which
can cause serious burns.

If sulphuric acid comes into contact with
eyes, skin or clothing, flush with large
quantities of water. If acid splashes into
the eyes - seek medical attention imme-
diately.

Never smoke near the battery.
