Audible signal
The Park Assist system uses an intermittent
tone that pulses faster as you come close to
an object, and becomes constant when you
are within approximately 1 ft (30 cm) of an
object in front of or behind the vehicle. If
there are objects within this distance both
behind and in front of the vehicle, the tone
alternates between front and rear speakers.
NOTE
The level of the audible signal can be low-
ered/raised with the infotainment volume
control. The level can also be set in the MY
CAR menu system. See My Car – introduc-
tion (p. 76) for a description of the menu
system.
If the volume of another source from the
audio system is high, this will be automati-
cally lowered.
Rear park assist
G017833
The distance monitored behind the vehicle is
approximately 5 ft (1.5 m). The audible signal
comes from the rear speakers.
The system must be deactivated when towing
a trailer, carrying bicycles in a rear-mounted
carrier, etc, which could trigger the rear park
assist system's sensors.
NOTE
•
Rear park assist is deactivated auto-
matically when towing a trailer if Volvo
genuine trailer wiring is used. If a non-
Volvo trailer hitch is being used, it may
be necessary to switch off the system
manually, see Park assist – operation
(p. 234).
•
The system will not detect high
objects, such as a loading dock, etc.
•
Objects such as chains, thin shiny
poles or low objects may temporarily
not be detected by the system. This
may result in the pulsing tone unex-
pectedly stopping instead of changing
to a constant tone as the vehicle
approaches the object. In such cases,
use caution when backing up or stop
the vehicle to help avoid damage.
