Backwards
NOTE: The illustration is schematic - details may vary depending on car model.
The sensors for reverse are activated if the car rolls backward without a gear engaged or when the gear lever is moved to reverse position.
The measuring range starts approx. 1.5 metres ( 5 ft) behind the car.
When reversing with a hitched trailer, parking assistance backward is deactivated automatically.
Note
When reversing with e.g. a trailer or bike carrier on the towbar - without Volvo genuine trailer wiring - parking assistance may need to be switched off manually in order that the sensors do not react to them.
Along the sides
Parking assistance side sensors are activated automatically when the engine is started. They are active at speeds below 10 km/h (6 mph).
The measuring range starts approx. 30 cm (1 ft) from the sides. The acoustic signal for obstacles on the sides comes from the side loudspeakers.
Forwards
NOTE: The illustration is schematic - details may vary depending on car model.
The front parking assistance sensors are activated automatically when the engine is started. The front sensors are active at speeds below 10 km/h (6 mph).
The measuring range starts approx. 80 cm (2.5 ft) in front of the car.
Note
Parking assistance is deactivated when the parking brake is applied or P mode is selected in a car with an automatic gearbox.
Important
When auxiliary lamps are fitted: Remember that these must not obscure the sensors - the auxiliary lamps may then be perceived as an obstacle.
