Alarm

*

The alarm provides audible and visual warn-
ings if anyone enters the car without a valid
remote control key or manipulates the starter
battery or alarm siren.

Alarm indicator

A red LED on the instrument panel indicates
the alarm system's status:

•

LED not lit – alarm not armed.

•

The LED flashes once every other second
– alarm is armed.

•

After the alarm has been disarmed, the
LED flashes rapidly for a maximum of
30 seconds or until ignition position

I

has

been activated - the alarm has been trig-
gered.

,

and takes place with a delay of approx.
10 seconds after the doors have locked. If a
door is opened within the delay time then the
sequence is interrupted and the alarm is deac-
tivated.

The car can only be unlocked with a remote
control key, keyless unlocking

Driving support systems

The car is equipped with different driver sup-
port systems which can assist the driver in
different situations, either actively or pas-
sively.

For example, the systems can help the driver
to:

•

maintain a set speed

•

maintain a certain time interval to the vehi-
cle ahead

•

prevent a collision by giving a warning to
the driver and braking the car

•

help the driver to park.

Some of the systems are fitted as standard
while others are options – which alternative
applies is market dependent.

Speed-dependent steering force

Speed related power steering causes the
steering wheel force to increase with the
speed of the car so as to be able to give the
driver enhanced sensitivity. On motorways
the steering is firmer. When parking and at
low speed steering is light and requires less
effort.

Reduced power

In rare situations, the power steering may
need to work at reduced power, and turning
the steering wheel may then seem slightly
heavier. This may occur when the power steer-
ing becomes too hot and then needs tempo-
rary cooling. It may also occur if the power
supply is disrupted.

In the event of reduced
power, the message

Power

Assistance

temporarily reduced

is

shown, as well as this symbol
in the driver display.

While the power steering is working at
reduced power, the driver support functions
and steering assistance systems are not avail-
able.

Electronic stability control

Electronic Stability Control (ESC

1

) helps the

driver to avoid skidding and improves the
car's traction.

The driver display shows this
symbol when the system is
engaged.

Braking from the system may
be heard as a pulsing sound,
and the car may accelerate

more slowly than expected when applying the
throttle.

The system consists of the following subfunc-
tions:

•

Stability function

2

•

Spin control and traction control system

•

Engine Drag Control

•

Trailer stability assist

WARNING

•

The function is supplementary driver
support intended to facilitate driving
and make it safer – it cannot handle all
situations in all traffic, weather and
road conditions.

•

•

Driver support functions are not a sub-
stitute for the driver's attention and
judgement. The driver is always
responsible for ensuring the car is
driven in a safe manner, at the appro-
priate speed, with an appropriate dis-
tance to other vehicles, and in accord-
ance with current traffic rules and reg-
ulations.

Stability function

Spin control and traction control
system

The function is active at low speed and brakes
the drive wheels that spin so that additional
traction shall be transferred to the drive
wheels that are not spinning.

The function can also prevent the driving
wheels from spinning against the road surface
during acceleration.

Engine Drag Control

Engine Drag Control (EDC

3

) can prevent invol-

untary wheel locking, e.g. after shifting down
or engine braking when driving in low gear on
slippery road surfaces.

Involuntary wheel locking while driving can,
amongst other things, impair the driver's abil-
ity to steer the car.

Trailer stability assist

Connected Safety

10

Connected Safety communicates information
between your own car and other vehicles via
the Internet

11

. The function is intended to

make a driver aware that there may be a
potentially dangerous traffic situation further
ahead on the same road.

The function can inform the driver whether
another vehicle further ahead on the same
road has activated its hazard warning flashers
or detected slippery driving conditions. Infor-
mation about slippery driving conditions is
also given if your own car detects slippery sur-
faces.

Connected Safety can help the driver with the
following:

•

Alarm on hazard warning flashers

•

Alarm on slippery driving conditions

Connected Safety communication between
vehicles only works for vehicles equipped with
the function and which have it activated.

Alarm on hazard warning flashers

If your own car's hazard warning flashers are
activated, information about this can be sent
to vehicles approaching your own car's posi-
tion.

When your own car is
approaching a vehicle with
flashing hazard warning
flashers, this symbol is
shown on the driver display.

In vehicles with head-up display, the warning
symbols for Connected Safety are also shown
there.

Alarm on slippery driving conditions

If your own car detects reduced friction
between your tyres and the road, information
on this can be sent to vehicles approaching
your own car's position.

If an ice alert is triggered, this
symbol is displayed on the
Driver display when a vehicle
approaches the slippery road
section, both in your own car
and in other vehicles that
have received the information

via Connected Safety.

In vehicles with head-up display, the warning
symbols for Connected Safety are also shown
there.

Limitations of Connected Safety

Information about vehicles with activated
hazard warning flashers or which have
detected slippery driving conditions is not
always communicated between all vehicles
within the same area.

This can be because for example:

•

Poor or no contact with the Internet.

•

Vehicles on slippery surfaces make
manoeuvres that are too weak for friction
between tyres and road surface to be
detectable, e.g. steering wheel movement,
acceleration or braking.

•

Vehicles that have detected slippery surfa-
ces, or have activated their hazard warn-
ing flashers, do not have the function acti-
vated.

•

Vehicles that have detected slippery surfa-
ces, or have activated their hazard warn-
ing flashers, are not equipped with the
function.

•

There may be no warning due to missing
or defective global positioning/satellite
navigation.

•

)

shows road signs in different ways depend-
ing on the sign and the situation.

Example

18

of detected speed information.

When the function detects a road sign with an
imposed speed limit, the driver display shows
the sign as a symbol combined with a col-
oured indication on the speedometer.

If the car is fitted with Sensus Navigation

*

,

speed-related information is also obtained
from map data, which means that the driver
display can show or change information on
the speed limit without having passed a
speed-related sign.

An additional sign, such as
"no overtaking", may be
shown together with the
speed limit symbol.

If the driver enters a road
marked with a no-entry sign
at the roadside, the symbol
for this sign flashes on and
off on the driver display as a
warning.

If the car is equipped with Sensus Navigation

*

,

information from map data is used to deter-
mine whether the car is being driven in the
wrong direction.

The driver can also get an acoustic warning
when driving towards a road marked with a
no-entry sign if the

Road Sign Audio

Warning

function is activated.

Speed limit or end of motorway

When the function detects an "indirect speed
limit sign" stating the end of the current speed
limit – e.g. at the end of a motorway – a sym-
bol appears with the corresponding road sign
in the driver's display.

* Option/accessory.

297

If the car is equipped with Sensus Navigation

*

,

direct speed limit signs are normally displayed
– indirect speed limit signs are only displayed
if map data has no information on the speed
limit for the road section in question.

Example of indirect speed limit sign:

End of all restrictions.

End of motorway.

The driver display symbol extinguishes after
10-30 seconds and remains so until the next
speed related sign is passed.

Changed speed limit

When passing a direct speed limit sign when a
speed limit changes, a symbol with the corres-
ponding road sign appears in the driver's dis-
play.

Example of direct speed limit
sign.

The driver display symbol extinguishes after
about 5 minutes until the next speed-related
sign is passed.

If the car is fitted with Sensus Navigation

*

,

speed limit signs are shown in the driver dis-
play when map data contains information on
the speed limit for the road section in ques-
tion, even if no direct sign has been passed. If
there is no information in map data, the sign is
extinguished approx. 3 minutes after the last
passing of a speed limit sign.

Additional signs

Examples of additional signs.

Sometimes different speed limits are signed
for the same road - an additional sign then
indicates the circumstances under which the
different speeds apply. The road section may
be particularly susceptible to accidents in rain
and/or fog, for example.

An additional sign relating to rain is displayed
only if the windscreen wipers are in use.

If a trailer is connected to the car's electrical
system and you pass a speed sign with the
additional sign "trailer", the indicated speed
will appear on the driver display.
