Park assist syst* - backward
Parking assistance is used as an aid to park-
ing. An acoustic signal as well as symbols on
the centre console's display 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
obstacles behind comes from one of the rear
loudspeakers.
Rear parking assistance is activated when
reverse gear is engaged.
When reversing with e.g. a trailer on the tow-
bar, rear parking assistance is switched off
automatically - otherwise the sensors would
react to the trailer.
NOTE
When reversing with e.g. a trailer or bike
carrier on the towbar - without Volvo genu-
ine trailer wiring - parking assistance may
need to be switched off manually in order
that the sensors do not react to them.

Park assist syst* - forward
Parking assistance is used as an aid to park-
ing. An acoustic signal as well as symbols on
the centre console's display screen indicate
the distance to the detected obstacle.
The parking assistance system is automati-
cally activated when the engine is started -
the switch's On/Off lamp is illuminated. If
parking assistance is switched off with the
button, the lamp goes out.
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.
Front park assist is active up to
approx. 10 km/h. The lamp in the button is
illuminated in order to indicate that the sys-
tem is activated. When the speed is below
10 km/h the system is reactivated.
