Messages pertaining to any possible problems
with City Safety will be displayed in the instru-
ment panel.
Troubleshooting and remedial action
Location of the camera and the radar sensor
If a message is displayed in the instrument panel
saying that the camera/radar sensor is blocked,
City Safety cannot detect vehicles, cyclists or
pedestrians ahead of you, which means that the
system is not functioning properly.
However, this message will not be displayed in all
situations in which the camera/radar sensor is
obstructed. For this reason, the driver must
ensure that the area of the windshield in front of
the camera/radar sensor is always kept clean.
The following table shows some of the situations
that can cause the message to be displayed and
suggested actions.
Cause Action
The area of the wind-
shield in front of the
camera/radar sensor is
dirty or covered by ice or
snow. Clean the wind-
shield or remove
the ice/ snow.
Thick fog or heavy rain/
snow blocks reduces the
camera/radar sensor's
range of visibility. No action. The
driver should be
extra alert in condi-
tions of this type.
There is dirt between
the inside of the wind-
shield and the camera/
radar sensor. Have the area of
the windshield
cleaned by a
trained and quali-
fied Volvo service
technician.
CAUTION
•
Service and maintenance on City Safety
may only be carried out by a trained and
qualified Volvo service technician.
•
If a crack, scratch or stone chip should
occur in the section of the windshield in
front the camera/radar sensor, contact a
trained and qualified Volvo service techni-
cian to repair or replace the windshield.
Failing to do so may result in reduced
City Safety functionality.
To help prevent limited or reduced functional-
ity, please also observe the following:
•
Volvo recommends that cracks, scratches
or stone chips on the windshield in front
of the camera/radar sensor should
not
be repaired; in such cases, the entire
windshield should be replaced.
•
Before the windshield is replaced, con-
tact a Volvo retailer to ensure that the
correct windshield is ordered and instal-
led. If the wrong type of windshield is
used, this may cause City Safety to func-
tion improperly or not at all.
•
Volvo recommends the use of only Genu-
ine Volvo Replacement Windshields.
•
When replacing windshield wipers, use
the same type or ones approved by Volvo.
