Camera/radar sensor limitations

The camera and radar sensor used by several
of the driver support functions has certain
limitations, which also affect the functions
using the camera and radar sensor. The driver
should be aware of the following limitations:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DRIVER SUPPORT

378

Common camera and radar limitations

Obstructed camera

The area marked in the illustration must be cleaned

regularly and kept free of decals, objects, solar film,

etc.

The camera is located on the upper interior
section of the windshield along with the radar
sensor.

Do not place, affix or mount anything on the
inside or outside of the windshield, or in front
of or around the camera and radar sensor –
this could disrupt camera and radar-based
functions. It could cause functions to be
reduced, deactivated completely or to produce
an incorrect function response.

High temperatures

If the temperature in the passenger compart-
ment is very high, the camera/radar sensor

will switch off temporarily for
approx. 15 minutes after the engine is started
to protect its electronic components. When
the temperature has cooled sufficiently, the
camera/radar sensor will automatically restart.

Damaged windshield

Failure to take action could result in
reduced performance for the driver support
systems that use the camera and radar
unit. It could cause functions to be
reduced, deactivated completely or to pro-
duce an incorrect function response.

To avoid the risk of malfunction of the driver
support systems that use the radar sensor, the
following also apply:

•

If there are cracks, scratches or stone
chips on the windshield in front of any of
the camera and radar sensor "windows"
and this covers an area of
about 0.5 × 3.0 mm (0.02 × 0.12 in.) or
more, contact a workshop to have the
windshield replaced

126

•

Volvo advises

against

repairing cracks,

scratches or stone chips in the area in
front of the camera and radar sensor – the

entire windshield should instead be
replaced.

•

Before replacing the windshield, contact a
workshop

126

to verify that the right wind-

shield has been ordered and installed.

•

The same type of windshield wipers or
wipers approved by Volvo should be used
for replacement.

•

If the windshield is replaced, the camera
and radar sensor must be recalibrated by a
workshop

126

to help ensure proper func-

tioning of all of the vehicle's camera and
radar-based systems.

Additional radar limitations

Vehicle speed

The radar sensor's ability to detect a vehicle
ahead is significantly reduced if the speed of
the vehicle ahead differs greatly from your
vehicle's speed.

126

An authorized Volvo workshop is recommended.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

379

Limited field of vision

The radar sensor has a limited field of vision. In
some situations, it may detect a vehicle later
than expected or not at all.

The radar sensor's field of vision

The radar sensor's detection of vehicles
very close to your vehicle may be delayed
in certain situations, e.g. if a vehicle pulls

in between your vehicle and the vehicle
directly ahead.
Small vehicles, such as motorcycles, or
vehicles that are not driving in the center
of the lane may remain undetected.
In curves, the radar may detect the a dif-
ferent vehicle than intended or lose sight
of a target vehicle.

Low trailers

Low trailer in the radar shadow

Low trailers may also be difficult or even
impossible for the radar to detect. The driver
should be extra alert when driving behind vehi-
cles towing low trailers when Adaptive Cruise
Control

or Pilot Assist

is activated.

Additional camera limitations

Reduced visibility

Cameras have the same limitations as the
human eye. In other words, their “vision" is
impaired by adverse weather conditions such
as heavy snowfall/rain, dense fog, swirling

dust/snow, etc. These conditions may reduce
the function of systems that depend on the
camera or cause these systems to temporarily
stop functioning.

Strong sunlight, reflections from the road sur-
face, ice or snow covering the road, a dirty
road surface, or unclear lane marker lines may
drastically reduce the camera’s ability to
detect the side of a lane, a pedestrian, a
cyclist, a large animal or another vehicle.

Additional Park Assist Camera

limitations

Blind sectors

There are "blind" sectors between the cameras' fields

of vision.

With the 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 camera
views meet.

WARNING

Even if it seems as though only a fairly

small section of the screen image is

obstructed, this may mean that a relatively

large sector is hidden and obstacles there

may not be detected until they are very

near the vehicle.

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.

A bike carrier and other accessories moun-
ted on the rear of the vehicle can obscure
the camera's view.

Recommended camera and radar

sensor maintenance

In order for the camera and radar units to
function properly, they must be kept free of
dirt, ice, snow, etc. and should be washed
regularly with water and car washing deter-
gent.

Dirt, ice and snow covering the sensors
could cause false warnings, reduced func-
tion, or no function.

ELECTRIC MOTOR AND CHARGING

386

General information about electric

vehicles

Recharge vehicles are driven just like any
other vehicle, but certain functions differ from
a vehicle powered exclusively by gasoline.
The electric motor powers the vehicle primar-
ily at low speeds; the gasoline engine is used
at higher speeds or during more active driv-
ing.

The instrument panel displays Recharge-spe-
cific information - charging information,
selected drive mode, distance to discharged
battery and hybrid battery charge level.

Different drive modes can be selected while
driving, e.g. electric power only or, if more
power is needed, a combination of electric and
gasoline power. The vehicle calculates a com-
bination of driveability, driving experience,
environmental impact and fuel economy for
the selected drive mode.

In order to function optimally, the hybrid bat-
tery (and its electrical drive systems) and the
gasoline engine (and its drive systems) must
be at the correct operating temperature. Bat-
tery capacity can be considerably reduced if
the battery is too cold or too hot. Precondi-
tioning prepares the vehicle's drive systems
and passenger compartment before driving to
help reduce both wear and energy consump-
tion. It also helps increase the hybrid battery's
range.

The hybrid battery which powers the electric
motor is recharged using the charging cable. It
can also be recharged during light braking and
through engine braking in gear position

. The

combustion engine can also help recharge the
hybrid battery.

Important

No electrical current

Keep in mind that if there is no electrical cur-
rent to the vehicle, i.e. the ignition is switched
off or the start battery is discharged, certain
functions such as power brakes, power steer-
ing, etc. will be limited.

WARNING

The power brakes only work when the

electric motor or combustion engine is run-

ning.

Towing not permitted

Never tow the vehicle behind another vehicle,
as this could damage the electric motor.

Exterior engine noise

Because there is no sound from the engine
when only the electric motor is running, the
vehicle is equipped with artificial exterior
background noise. This sound is intended to
help warn children, pedestrians, cyclists, ani-
mals, etc. outside the vehicle of the vehicle's
approach.

High-voltage electrical current

WARNING

A number of electrical components in the

vehicle use high-voltage current and can be

extremely dangerous if handled incorrectly.

These components and any orange wiring

in the vehicle may only be handled by

trained and qualified Volvo service techni-

cians.

Charging the hybrid battery

In addition to the conventional fuel tank, your
vehicle is also equipped with a rechargeable
lithium-ion hybrid battery.

WARNING

California Proposition 65

Operating, servicing and maintaining a pas-

senger vehicle can expose you to chemi-

cals including engine exhaust, carbon mon-

oxide, phthalates, and lead, which are

known to the State of California to cause

cancer and birth defects or other reproduc-

tive harm. To minimize exposure, avoid

breathing exhaust, do not idle the engine

except as necessary, service your vehicle in

a well ventilated area and wear gloves or

wash your hands frequently when servicing

your vehicle. For more information go to

The hybrid battery can be recharged using the
charging cable stored in a storage space in the
trunk.

WARNING

The hybrid electrical system in your vehicle

uses high voltage electrical current. Any

damage to this system or to the hybrid bat-

tery may result in the danger of overheat-

ing, fire, or serious injury. If the vehicle is

involved in a collision or subjected to flood-

ing, fire, etc., have it inspected by a trained

and qualified Volvo service technician. Prior

to this inspection, the vehicle should be

parked outdoors at a safe distance from

any building or potentially flammable mate-

rials.

The hybrid battery's charging time depends on
the charging current used.

Charging current (p. 388)

The capacity of the hybrid battery dimin-
ishes somewhat with age and use, which
could result in increased use of the gaso-
line engine and consequently, slightly
higher fuel consumption.

WARNING

If the hybrid battery needs to be replaced,

this may only be done by a Volvo retailer or

authorized Volvo workshop.

The electric motor cannot be used if the bat-
tery's temperature is too low or too high. If the
PURE drive mode is selected, the gasoline
engine will start.

Charging with fixed control module in
accordance with mode 3

In certain markets, the control module is
installed within a charging station connected
to an electrical outlet. In this case, the charg-
ing cable does not have its own control mod-
ule. You must therefore use the charging sta-
tion's charging cable and follow the instruc-
tions on the charging station.

Energy recovery during braking

Indicator in the instrument panel during energy

recovery.

Energy is regenerated to the battery when the
brake pedal is depressed lightly or during

Charging current

Charging current is used to charge the hybrid
battery and precondition the vehicle. Charg-
ing is performed by connecting a charging
cable between the vehicle's charging socket
and a 120/240 V electrical socket (alternat-
ing current).

When the charging cable is activated, a mes-
sage will be displayed in the instrument panel
and an indicator light in the vehicle's charging
socket will illuminate. Charging current is pri-
marily used for battery charging, but is also
used for preconditioning. The vehicle's start
battery is charged along with the hybrid bat-
tery.

Never detach the charging cable from the
120/240 V outlet (AC, alternating current)
while charging is in progress – the
120/240 V outlet could be damaged in
such circumstances. Always interrupt
charging first and then disconnect the
charging cable – first from the vehicle's
charging socket and then from the
120/240 V outlet.

Charging status in the charging cable's
control module (p. 397)

•

In extremely cold or hot weather, part
of the charging current is used to heat/
cool the hybrid battery and the passen-
ger compartment, resulting in a longer
charging time.

•

The charging time is longer if precondi-
tioning has been selected. The time
required depends primarily on the
ambient temperature.

Charging time

Charging time may vary. The following charg-
ing times apply when charging is not affected
by current being drawn from the climate sys-
tem or any other function. If charging seems
to be taking more time than shown in the
table, this should be investigated.
