General
Parking assistance is used as an aid to park-
ing. A signal indicates the distance to a de-
tected object.
Function
1
The system is activated automatically when
the car is started. The lamp in the switch in
the switch panel illuminates. The text
Park
Assist ON
is shown in the centre console
display if reverse gear is engaged or if the
front sensors detect an object.
The front parking assistance is active at
speeds of below 15 km/h, even during re-
versing. The system is deactivated at a high-
er speed. However, the lamp in the button re-
mains on in order to indicate that the system
is active for the next time the driver shall
park. When the speed is below 10 km/h the
system is reactivated.
The frequency of the signal increases as you
come closer to an object in front of or behind
the car. If the volume of another audio source
from the audio system is high, then this is au-
tomatically lowered.
The tone becomes constant at a distance of
about 30 cm. If there are objects within this
distance both behind and in front of the car,
the signal alternates between front and rear
speakers.
Rear parking assistance
The distance covered to the rear of the car is
about 1.5 metres. Rear parking assistance is
activated when reverse gear is engaged. The
signal comes from the rear loudspeakers.
The system must be deactivated when re-
versing with a trailer, or bike carrier on the
towbar or similar. Otherwise they would trig-
ger the sensors.
Rear parking assistance is deactivated auto-
matically when towing a trailer if Volvo genu-
ine trailer wiring is used.
Front parking assistance
The distance covered to the front of the car is
about 0.8 metres. The signal comes from the
front loudspeakers.
Front parking assistance cannot be com-
bined with auxiliary lamps because the sen-
sors are affected by the auxiliary lamps.
Fault indicator
If the information symbol illuminates with
constant glow and
Park Assist syst Service
required
is shown on the information display
then parking assistance is disengaged.
WARNING
Parking assistance does not relinquish the
driver’s own responsibility during parking.
The sensors have blind spots where objects
cannot be detected. Be aware of children
and animals near the car.

Depending on the market, the Parking assist-
ance system may be either standard, an op-
tion or an accessory.
