Limitations for camera and radar

unit

The camera and radar unit has certain limita-
tions – which in turn also limit those func-
tions that use the unit. A driver should be
aware about the following examples of limita-
tions.

||

DRIVER SUPPORT

420

Common limitations for camera and
radar

Blocked unit

The marked area must be cleaned regularly and kept

free from stickers, objects, shade film, etc.

The camera unit is placed inside the upper
section of the windscreen together with the
car's radar unit.

Do not place, stick or mount anything on the
inside or outside of the windscreen, in front of
or around the camera and radar unit – this
may interfere with camera and radar-based
functions. This may result functions being
reduced, being switched off completely or giv-
ing incorrect function responses.

High temperature

At very high temperatures the camera and
radar unit can temporarily be switched off for

about 15 minutes after the engine is started so
as to protect the unit's electronics. The cam-
era and radar unit restarts automatically when
the temperature has fallen sufficiently.

Damaged windscreen

NOTE

If not rectified it can lead to reduced per-
formance for the driver support systems
that use the camera and radar unit. This
may result functions being reduced, being
switched off completely or giving incorrect
function responses.

The following is also applicable so as not to
risk incorrect function for the driver supports
that use the radar unit:

•

If a scratch, crack or stone chip appears
on the windscreen in front of any of the
"windows" for the camera and radar unit
and covers an area of
approx. 0.5 × 3.0 mm (0.02 × 0.12 in.) or
more, a workshop

139

 must be contacted

so that the windscreen can be replaced.

•

Volvo recommends 

not

 repairing cracks,

scratches or stone chips in the area in
front of the camera and radar unit – the
entire windscreen should be replaced
instead.

•

Before replacing a windscreen, contact a
workshop

139

 to verify that the correct

windscreen has been ordered and will be
fitted.

•

The same type of windscreen wipers or
windscreen wipers approved by Volvo
must be fitted when the windscreen is
replaced.

•

When replacing the windscreen, the cam-
era and radar unit must be recalibrated by
a workshop

139

 to ensure the functionality

of all the camera and radar-based systems
in the car.

Further limitations for radar

Vehicle speed

The radar unit's ability to detect a vehicle
ahead is greatly reduced if the speed of the
vehicle ahead is very different to the speed of
your own car.

139

An authorised Volvo workshop is recommended.

DRIVER SUPPORT

* Option/accessory.

421

Limited field of vision

The radar unit has a limited field of vision. In
some situations another vehicle is not
detected, or the detection is made later than
expected.

The radar unit's field of vision

Sometimes the radar unit is late at detect-
ing vehicles at close distances - e.g. a

vehicle that drives in between your car and
the vehicle ahead.
Small vehicles, such as motorcycles, or
vehicles not driving in the centre of the
lane can remain undetected.
In bends, the radar unit may detect a dif-
ferent vehicle than intended or lose a
detected vehicle from view.

Low trailers

Low trailer in radar shadow

Low trailers can also be difficult for the radar
unit to detect, or are not detected at all - the
driver should therefore be particularly careful
when driving behind low trailers when the
adaptive cruise control

*

 or Pilot Assist

*

 is acti-

vated.

Further limitations for camera

Impaired vision

The cameras have limitations similar to the
human eye, i.e. may "see" worse in for exam-
ple intense snowfall or rain, dense fog, heavy

dust storms and snow flurries. Under such
conditions, the functions of camera-depend-
ent systems could be significantly reduced or
temporarily disengaged.

Strong oncoming light, reflections in the car-
riageway, snow or ice on the road surface,
dirty road surfaces or unclear lane markings
can also significantly reduce camera function
when it is used to scan the carriageway to
detect pedestrians, cyclists, large animals and
other vehicles.

DRIVER SUPPORT

* Option/accessory.

422

Further limitations for Park assist
camera

*

Blind sectors

There are "blind" sectors between the cameras' fields

of vision.

In the park assist camera's 360° view

*

 obsta-

cles/objects may "vanish" in the gaps
between the individual cameras.

WARNING

Pay attention to the possibility that, even if

it only looks like a relatively small part of

the image is obscured, a relatively large

sector could be hidden from view. An

obstacle could thereby go undetected until

the car is very close to it.

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 reduced image quality.

NOTE

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

Recommended maintenance for

camera and radar unit

In order that the camera and radar units shall
function correctly, they must be kept clear of
dirt, ice and snow, and be cleaned regularly
with water and car shampoo.

NOTE

Dirt, ice and snow covering the sensors
may cause incorrect warning signals,
reduced or no function.

Location of the parking sensors

DRIVER SUPPORT

423

Location of rear radar units. Keep the surface indi-

cated clean – on both the left and right-hand sides of

the car.

•

To ensure best possible functionality, the
surfaces in front of the sensors must be
kept clean.

•

Do not affix any objects, tape or labels in
the area of the sensors.

•

Clean camera lenses regularly with luke-
warm water and car shampoo - be careful
not to scratch the lenses.

IMPORTANT

Maintenance of driver support components
must only be performed at a workshop –
an authorised Volvo workshop is recom-
mended.

Symbols and messages for camera

and radar unit

Here are examples of some of the display
messages and symbols regarding the camera
and radar units that can be shown in the
driver display.

Detector blocked

If the driver display shows this sym-
bol and the message 

Windscreen

sensor

 

Sensor blocked, see

Owner's manual

, this means that

the camera and radar unit cannot detect other
vehicles, cyclists, pedestrians and large ani-
mals in front of the car, and that the car's
camera-based and radar-based functions may
be disrupted.

The following table presents examples of pos-
sible causes for a message being shown,
along with the appropriate action:

Cause

Action

The windscreen surface in front of the camera and radar unit is
dirty or covered with ice or snow.

Clean dirt, ice and snow from the windscreen surface in front of the camera
and radar unit.

Thick fog and heavy rain or snow block the radar signals or the
camera view.

No action. Sometimes the unit does not work during heavy rain or snowfall.

Water or snow from the road surface swirls up and blocks the
radar signals or camera view.

No action. Sometimes the unit does not work on a very wet or snow-covered
road surface.

Dirt has appeared between the inside of the windscreen and the
camera and radar unit.

Visit a workshop to have the windscreen inside the unit's cover cleaned - an
authorised Volvo workshop is recommended.

Strong oncoming light

No action. The camera unit is reset automatically in more favourable light con-
ditions.

DRIVER SUPPORT

425

Defective camera

If a camera sector is black
and contains this symbol
then it means that the cam-
era is out of order.

The car's left-hand camera is out of order.

A black camera sector is also shown in the fol-
lowing instances, but then 

without

 the sym-

bol for defective camera:

•

open door

•

open boot lid

•

folded-in door mirror.

Rear parking camera

WARNING

Pay additional attention

while reversing when this

symbol is shown if a

trailer, bicycle rack or sim-

ilar is mounted and electri-

cally connected to the car.
The symbol indicates that

the parking assistance sensors rearward

are 

switched off

 and will not warn of any

obstacles.
