Lane Departure Warning (LDW)*

The purpose of Lane Departure Warning (Lane
Departure Warning) is to help the driver to
reduce the risk of the vehicle accidentally leaving
its own lane in certain situations on motorways
and similar major routes.

Principle for LDW

(The figure is schematic - not model specific.)

A camera reads the side lines of the road/lane.

If the car crosses one of the side lines the driver
is alerted with an acoustic signal.

NOTE

The driver is only warned once each time the
wheels cross a line. So there is no acoustic
alarm when there is a line between the car's
wheels.

WARNING

Lane assistance is merely a driver aid and

does not engage in all driving situations or

traffic, weather or road conditions.
The driver always bears ultimate responsibility

for ensuring that the vehicle is driven safely

and that applicable laws and road traffic regu-

lations are followed.

Park Assist*

Parking assistance is used as an aid to parking.
An acoustic signal as well as symbols on the
centre console's screen indicate the distance to
the detected obstacle.

Parking assistance sound level can be adjusted
during the ongoing acoustic signal using the cen-
tre console's VOL knob. The sound level can also
be adjusted in the audio settings menu, which is
accessed by pressing SOUND or in the car's
menu system (p. 115) MY CAR

Parking assistance is available in two variants:

•

Rear only

•

Both front and rear.

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 Park Assist function is supplemen-
tary driver support intended to facilitate
driving and make it safer – it cannot han-
dle all situations in all traffic, weather and
road conditions.

•

The parking sensors have blind spots
where obstacles cannot be detected.

•

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

•

The Park Assist system 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 man-
ner, at the appropriate speed, with an
appropriate distance to other vehicles,
and in accordance with current traffic
rules and regulations.

Display screen view - showing an obstacle left front and

right rear.

The centre console's display screen shows an
overview of the relationship between the car and
detected obstacle.

Marked sectors show which of the four sensor(s)
detected an obstacle. The closer to the car sym-
bol a selected sector box is, the shorter the dis-
tance between the car and a detected obstacle.

The frequency of the signal increases the shorter
the distance to an obstacle, in front of or behind
the car. Other sound from the audio system is
muted automatically.

When the distance is within 30 cm the tone is
constant and the active sensor's field nearest the
car is filled in. If the detected obstacle is within
the distance for the constant tone both behind
and in front of the car, then the tone sounds
alternately from the loudspeakers.

IMPORTANT

Objects e.g. chains, thin glossy poles or low
barriers may be in the "signal shadow" and
are then temporarily not detected by the sen-
sors - the pulsating tone may then unexpect-
edly stop instead of changing over to the
expected constant tone.

The sensors cannot detect high objects, such
as projecting loading docks.

•

In such situations, pay extra attention and
manoeuvre/reposition the car particularly
slowly or stop the current parking
manoeuvre - there may be a high risk of
damage to vehicles or other objects since
information from the sensors is not
always reliable in such situations.

Parking assistance is used as an aid to parking.
An acoustic signal as well as symbols on the
centre console's screen indicate the distance to
the detected obstacle.

The distance covered to the rear of the car is
about 1.5 metres. The acoustic signal for obsta-
cles behind comes from one of the rear loud-
speakers.

Rear parking assistance is activated when
reverse gear is engaged.

When reversing with e.g. a trailer on the towbar,
rear parking assistance is switched off automati-
cally - otherwise the sensors would react to the
trailer.

DRIVER SUPPORT

* Option/accessory.

258

NOTE

When reversing with e.g. a trailer or bike car-
rier on the towbar - without Volvo genuine
trailer wiring - parking assistance may need to
be switched off manually in order that the
sensors do not react to them.

detected obstacles.

The distance covered in front of the car is about
0.8 metres. The acoustic signal for obstacles in
front comes from one of the front loudspeakers.

The front parking assistance system is active up
to 10 km/h (6 mph).

If the Parking Assistance System is deactivated
because the car is moving too quickly - 11 km/h

(7 mph) or above - the function is reactivated
when the speed falls below 10 km/h (6 mph).

NOTE

Parking assistance is deactivated when the
parking brake is applied or P mode is
selected in a car with an automatic gearbox.

IMPORTANT

When auxiliary lamps are fitted: Remember
that these must not obscure the sensors - the
auxiliary lamps may then be perceived as an
obstacle.

Park assist camera*

Parking camera is an auxiliary system, which is
activated when the reverse gear is selected.

The camera image is shown on the centre con-
sole's screen.

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 parking camera function is supple-
mentary driver support intended to facili-
tate driving and make it safer – it cannot
handle all situations in all traffic, weather
and road conditions.

•

The parking cameras have blind spots
where obstacles cannot be detected.

•

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

•

Objects/obstacles on the display screen
may be closer to the car than they appear
to be on the screen.

•

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

Function and operation

Camera location next to the opening handle.

The camera shows what is behind the car and if
something appears from the sides.

The camera shows a wide area behind the car
and part of the bumper and any towbar.

Objects on the screen may appear to tilt slightly -
this is normal.

NOTE

Objects on the display screen may be closer
to the car than they appear to be on the
screen.

If another view is active then the parking camera
system takes over automatically and its camera
image is displayed on the screen.

261

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. 263).

If the car is also equipped with Parking assis-
tance sensors (p. 256)

* 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.

DRIVER SUPPORT

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. 256) 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.

Park assist camera - limitations

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.

STARTING AND DRIVING

* Option/accessory.

266

Starting the engine

The engine is started and switched off using the
remote control key and the

START/STOP

ENGINE button.

Ignition switch with remote control key extracted/

inserted. and START/STOP ENGINE button.

IMPORTANT

Do not press in the remote control key incor-
rectly turned - hold the end with the detacha-
ble key blade, see Detachable key blade -
detaching/attaching (p. 169).

1. Insert the remote control key in the ignition

switch and press it in to its end position.

2. Depress the brake pedal fully

3. Press the START/STOP ENGINE button

and then release it.

When the engine is started the starter motor
works until the engine is started or until its over-
heating protection triggers.

When starting the engine in normal conditions
the car's electric drive motor is prioritised - the
diesel engine remains switched off. This means
that after pressing the START/STOP ENGINE
button the electric motor has "started" and the
car is ready to drive. A started motor is indicated
by the combined instrument panel's indicator
lamps extinguishing and its preset theme illumi-
nating (see Digital combined instrument panel -
overview (p. 69)).

However, there are situations where the diesel
engine is started instead, e.g. in the event of the
temperature being too low or if the hybrid battery
needs charging.

IMPORTANT

If the engine fails to start after 3 attempts -
wait for 3 minutes before making a further
attempt. Starting capacity increases if the bat-
tery is allowed to recover.

WARNING

Never remove the remote control key from the

ignition switch after starting the engine or

when the car is being towed.

WARNING

Always remove the remote control key from

the ignition switch when leaving the car, and

make sure that the key position is 0 - in par-

ticular if there are children in the car. For

information on how this works - see Key posi-

tions (p. 82).

NOTE

The idling speed can be noticeably higher
than normal for certain engine types during
cold starting. This is done in order that the
emissions system can reach normal operating
temperature as quickly as possible, which
minimises exhaust emissions and protects the
environment.

Keyless starting (Keyless drive)

Follow steps 2-3 for keyless (p. 173) starting of
the engine.

If the car is moving then it is enough to press the START/STOP ENGINE button to start the engine.

STARTING AND DRIVING

267

NOTE

A prerequisite for the engine to start is that
one of the car's remote control keys with the
keyless start and lock function is in the pas-
senger compartment or cargo area.

WARNING

Never remove the remote control key from

the car while driving or during towing.

Jump starting with another battery

If the starter battery (p. 380) 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. 83).

IMPORTANT

After key position 0: Wait approx. 2 minutes
before connecting the donor battery, in order
to allow the control system to first set the
necessary parameters.

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.

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.

STARTING AND DRIVING

}}

269

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

charged battery with the remote control key
inserted and a press the START/STOP
ENGINE button, see Starting the engine
(p. 266).

NOTE

When starting the engine in normal condi-
tions the car's electric drive motor is priori-
tised - the diesel engine remains switched off.
This means that after pressing the START/
STOP ENGINE button the electric motor has
"started" and the car is ready to drive. A
started motor is indicated by the combined
instrument panel's indicator lamps extinguish-
ing and its preset theme illuminating.

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.

13. Refit the front cover for the battery in your

car.

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.

Drive systems

This Plug-in Hybrid is a so-called parallel hybrid,
which means that it has two separate drive sys-
tems: an electric motor and a diesel engine.
Depending on the driver-selected drive mode
and available electric energy, the two drive sys-
tems can be used either individually or in paral-
lel.

Two drive systems

An advanced control system combines the prop-
erties of both drive systems in order to provide
optimum driving economy.
