General information on parking
assistance
Parking assistance front and rear.
Parking assistance is used as an aid to parking.
A signal indicates the distance to a detected
obstacle.
WARNING
Parking assistance does not relinquish the
driver's own responsibility during parking.
The sensors have blind spots where obsta-
cles cannot be detected. Be aware of chil-
dren or animals near the car.
Variants
Parking assistance is available in two variants:
•
Rear only.
•
Both front and rear.
Function
The frequency of the signal increases the
shorter the distance to an obstacle, in front of
or behind the car. If the volume of another
audio source from the audio system is high,
then this is automatically lowered.
The tone becomes constant at a distance of
about 30 cm. If there are obstacles within this
distance both behind and in front of the car, the
signal alternates between left and right-hand
speakers.
Rear parking assistance only
The system is automatically engaged when the
car is started.
Rear parking assistance is activated when
reverse gear is engaged and the message
Park
Assist active, Exit to deactivate
is shown on
the audio system display.
If the system is switched off, the display shows
Park Assist deactivated Enter to activate
as soon as reverse gear is engaged. To change
the settings, see page 84.
The distance covered behind the car is
about 1.5 metres. The signal comes from the
rear loudspeakers.
Limitations
The system must be deactivated when revers-
ing with a trailer, or bike carrier on the towbar
or similar. Otherwise the trailer or bike carrier
would trigger the sensors.
NOTE
Rear parking assistance is deactivated
automatically when towing a trailer if a Volvo
genuine trailer cable is used.
Parking assistance both front and rear
Button for Off/On (button location depends on
