Points to keep in mind
PAP is a parking aid only and the driver should
always be prepared to take control and cancel a
parking sequence. This can be due to one or
more of the following factors:
•
PAP's function is based on the way that the
vehicles are parked behind and in front of
your parking space. If they are, for example,
parked too close to the curb, there is a risk
that your vehicle's tires or wheel rims could
be damaged by the curb during the parking
procedure.
•
PAP is intended to provide parking assis-
tance on straight streets, not sections of
street with curved or irregular curbs. Be sure
that your vehicle is parallel to the curb when
PAP measures the parking space.
•
PAP may not be able to provide parking
assistance on narrow streets due to lack of
space to maneuver the vehicle. In situations
like this, it may help to drive between 1.5-5 ft
(0.5-1.5 m) from the side of the road where
the parking space is located.
•
Use only approved tires with the correct infla-
tion pressure because this affects PAP's
capacity to provide parking assistance.
Changing to a different approved tire size
may affect PAP's parameters. Consult a
trained and qualified Volvo service technician.
•
Heavy rain or snow may inhibit PAP's
capacity to correctly measure a parking
space.
•
Do not use PAP when using snow chains
and/or a temporary spare tire.
•
Do not use PAP if there are any objects pro-
truding from the vehicle.
WARNING
•
The front end of your vehicle may turn out
toward oncoming traffic during the park-
ing procedure.
•
Objects located above the parking sen-
sors' field of vision are not included when
PAP measures a parking space. For this
reason, PAP may turn into the parking
space too soon. Avoid parking spaces of
this type.
•
The driver is always responsible for deter-
mining if PAP has selected a suitable
parking space.
Maintenance
Location of the PAP sensors
PAP uses the same sensors as the Park Assist
system. To function correctly, these sensors must
be cleaned regularly with water and a suitable car
washing detergent.
