Positioning the car in the parking space

Principle for positioning during parallel parking.

Principle for positioning during perpendicular park-

ing.

1. Move the gear selector to the gear posi-

tion as instructed by the system, wait until
the steering wheel has been turned and
drive forward slowly.

2. Be prepared to stop the car when instruc-

ted by the graphic and message on the
centre display.

3. Select reverse gear and drive slowly back-

wards.

4. Be prepared to brake the car when

instructed by the graphic and message on
the centre display.

The function is deactivated automatically and
the graphics and message show that parking
is complete. It may be necessary for the driver
to correct the car’s position. Only the driver
can determine whether the car is properly
parked.

IMPORTANT

The warning distance is shorter when the
sensors are used by Park Assist Pilot
(PAP

119

) compared with when Park Assist

System uses the sensors.

Auto-brake during parking sequence

If the parking sensors detect a vehicle or
pedestrian within the intended route in front of

or behind the car during a parking manoeuvre,
the car is auto-braked to stationary.

The driver display then shows a pop-up mes-
sage where the driver can choose to cancel
the parking manoeuvre by tapping on

Cancel

,

or tap

Resume

to continue the parking

sequence.

Proceed as follows after selecting

Resume

:

–

Check that there is free space around the
car and follow the instructions in the cen-
tre display, such as:

To continue

–

Gently accelerate away

from object

Leaving parallel parking with Park

Assist Pilot

*

The

Park Out

function can help the driver to

leave a parking space when the car is parallel
parked.

NOTE

When leaving a parking space, the

Park

Out

function must only be used for a paral-

lel-parked car - it does not work for a per-
pendicular-parked car.

The

Park Out

function is acti-

vated in the centre display's
function view or in the cam-
era view.

•

GREEN button indication – the function is
activated.

•

GREY button indication – the function is
deactivated.

1. Tap on the

Park Out

button in the func-

tion view or in the camera view.

2. Use the direction indicator to select the

direction in which the car should leave the
parking space.

3. Be prepared to stop the car when instruc-

ted by the graphic and message on the
centre display - follow the instructions in
the same way as for the parking proce-
dure.

Note the steering wheel can "spring" back
when the function is completed - the driver
may then need to turn the steering wheel back
to the maximum steering angle in order to
leave the parking space.

If the function considers that the driver can
leave the parking space without any extra
manoeuvring then the function will be stop-
ped, even if the driver may consider that the
car is still in the parking space.

The Park Assist Pilot (PAP

120

) function cannot

detect everything in all situations and may
therefore have limited functionality.

WARNING

•

The parking sensors have blind spots
where obstacles cannot be detected.

•

Pay particular attention if there are
people and animals near the car.

•

Bear in mind that the front of the car
may swing out towards oncoming traf-
fic during the parking manoeuvre.

IMPORTANT

Objects situated higher than the sensor
detection area are not included when cal-
culating the parking manoeuvre, which
could cause the function to swing into the
parking space too early – such parking
spaces should be avoided for this reason.

A driver should be aware about the following
examples of Park Assist Pilot limitations:

Parking is discontinued

A parking sequence will be discontinued:

•

if the driver moves the steering wheel

•

if the car is driven too quickly - above
7 km/h (4 mph)

•

if the driver presses

Cancel

in the centre

display

•

when the anti-lock brakes or the Elec-
tronic stability control are engaged - e.g.
when a wheel loses grip on a slippery road

•

as the steering servo for speed-dependent
steering wheel resistance is working at
reduced power – e.g. when cooling due to
overheating

•

when the parking sensors detect a vehicle
or pedestrian within the intended route in
front of or behind the car during a parking
manoeuvre, the car is auto-braked to sta-
tionary.

Where applicable, a message in the centre
display states the reason for a parking
sequence being discontinued.

IMPORTANT

Under certain circumstances, the function
is unable to find parking spaces - one rea-
son for this may be the fact that there is
interference with the sensors from external
sound sources which emit the same ultra-
sound frequencies as those with which the
system works.

Examples of such sources include horns,
wet tyres on asphalt, pneumatic brakes
and exhaust noises from motorcycles etc.

NOTE

Dirt, ice and snow covering the sensors
will reduce their function and may prevent
measurement.

Driver responsibility

The driver should bear in mind that the func-
tion is an aid – not an infallible, fully-automatic
function. The driver must therefore be pre-
pared to interrupt a parking step.

There are also a few details to bear in mind
while parking, e.g.:

•

The driver is always responsible for deter-
mining whether the space selected by the
function is suitable for parking.

•

Do not use the function if snow chains or
a spare wheel are fitted.

•

Do not use the function if cargo items are
protruding from the car.

•

Heavy rain or snow may cause the system
to measure the parking space incorrectly.

•

During the search and check-measure-
ment of the parking space, the function
may miss objects positioned deep in the
parking space.

•

Parking spaces on narrow streets are not
always feasible, since the space required
for manoeuvring may not be sufficient.

•

Use approved tyres

121

with the correct tyre

pressure - this affects the ability of the
function to park the car.

•

The function bases itself on the locations
of vehicles already parked nearby – if they
are inappropriately parked, your own car's
tyres and wheel rims may be damaged by
contact with the kerb.

•

Perpendicular parking spaces may be
missed or offered unnecessarily if one

121

”Approved tyres” refers to tyres of the same type and make as those fitted new on delivery from the factory.

parked car is protruding more than other
parked cars.

•

The function is designed for parking on
straight streets – not sharp curves or
bends. For this reason, make sure the car
is parallel to the potential parking spaces
when the function measures the space.

HYBRID INFORMATION

416

General information about Twin

Engine

Twin Engine runs like a regular car, but cer-
tain functions differ from a car that only runs
on petrol or diesel. The electric motor drives
the car mostly at low speeds, the petrol
engine at higher speeds, as well as during
more active driving.

The driver display shows some information
that is unique to the Twin Engine - charging
information, selected drive mode, distance to
empty battery as well as the hybrid battery's
charge level.

It is possible to set the car in different drive
modes while driving, e.g. electric operation
only or, when power is required, both electric
motor and petrol engine. The car calculates a
combination of drivability, driving experience,
environmental impact and fuel economy
according to the drive mode selected.

In order that the car should have optimal func-
tion it is important that the hybrid battery with
associated electrical drive systems, as well as
the petrol engine and its drive systems, have
the correct operating temperature. Battery
capacity may be reduced considerably if the
battery is too cold or too hot. Preconditioning
prepares the car's drive systems and the pas-
senger compartment before departure so that
both wear and energy needs during the jour-
ney are reduced. The range for the hybrid bat-
tery increases.

The hybrid battery which drives the electric
motor is charged via a charging cable but can
also be charged by gentle braking and engine
braking in gear position

B

. The hybrid battery

can also be charged by the car's engine.

Important to know

Car without power

Bear in mind that important functions such as
the brakes and power steering are inoperable
when the car is without power.

WARNING

In a de-energised car with the electric

motor and fuel-driven engine switched off

it is not possible to brake the car.

Towing not permitted

Towing the Twin Engine is not permitted since
this damages the electric motor.

Exterior engine noise

WARNING

Remember that the car does not emit any

engine noise when it is only powered by

the electric motor and may therefore be

difficult to notice by children, pedestrians,

cyclists and animals. This is especially true

at low speeds, such as in car parks.

High-voltage current

WARNING

Several components in the car work with

high-voltage current that could be danger-

ous in the event of incorrect intervention.

These components, and all orange-col-

oured cables, must only be handled by

qualified personnel.

Do not touch anything that is not clearly
described in the owner's manual.

Charging the hybrid battery

In addition to the fuel tank, as in a conven-
tional car, the car is equipped with a
rechargeable battery - a so-called hybrid bat-
tery of the lithium-ion type.

The hybrid battery is charged using a charging
cable which is located in a storage compart-
ment in the cargo area.

NOTE

Volvo recommends a charging cable in
accordance with IEC 62196 and IEC
61851 which supports temperature moni-
toring.

The time it takes for the hybrid battery to be
charged is dependent on the charging current
that is used.

NOTE

The capacity of the hybrid battery decrea-
ses slightly with age and use, which may
result in increased use of the petrol engine
and thereby slightly increased fuel con-
sumption.

WARNING

Replacing the hybrid battery must only be

performed by a workshop - an authorised

Volvo workshop is recommended.

Charging cable handle and charging input socket.

Charging status is indicated in three ways:

•

Indicators on the charging cable's control
unit.

•

Indicator lamp in the car's charging input
socket.

•

Illustration and text in the driver display.

The starter battery is charged when the hybrid
battery is charging and terminated when the
hybrid battery is fully charged.

If the hybrid battery's temperature is below
-10

º

C (14

º

F) or above 40

º

C (104

º

F) then it

may mean that some of the car's functions are
changed or unavailable because the capacity
of the hybrid batteries is reduced outside this
temperature range.

Electric operation is not possible if the tem-
perature of the battery is too low or too high. If
drive mode PURE is then selected, the com-
bustion engine starts.

Charging with fixed control unit in
accordance with mode 3

1

In certain markets the control unit is installed
within a charging station connected to the
mains power circuit. In which case, the charg-
ing cable has no control unit of its own.
Instead, it has a special connector that is used
to connect the charging cable to the charging
station. Follow the instructions at the charging
station.

HYBRID INFORMATION

418

Charging with the petrol engine

The car generates current to the battery and the bat-

tery is charged, e.g. when the brake pedal is pressed

gently or during engine braking down a hill.

The car can also generate power for the hybrid
battery and the battery is charged.

•

The hybrid battery is recharged during
gentle braking with the brake pedal. The
car's kinetic energy is then converted to
electrical energy, which is used to charge
the hybrid battery.

•

In gear position

B

, the car uses electric

motor braking when the accelerator pedal
is released, while the hybrid battery is
recharged at the same time.

•

The hybrid battery can also be charged by
the car's engine.

Charging current

Charging current is used for charging the
hybrid battery as well as preconditioning of
the car. Charging takes place with a charging
cable connected to the car's charging input
socket and a 230 V socket

2

(alternating cur-

rent).

When the charging cable is activated, the
driver display shows a message and a lamp in
the car's charging input socket illuminates.
The charging current is mainly used for battery
charging, but is also used for preconditioning
the car. When the car's hybrid battery is
charged, the starter battery is also charged.

IMPORTANT

Never unplug the charging cable from the
230 V socket (alternating current) while
charging is in progress - there is then a risk
of damaging the 230 V socket. Always
stop charging first before unplugging the
charging cable from the car's charging
input socket and then from the 230 V
socket.

2

The voltage in the socket may vary depending on market.

HYBRID INFORMATION

}}

419

NOTE

•

If the weather is very hot or very cold,
some of the charging current is used to
heat/cool the hybrid battery and the
passenger compartment, which results
in a longer charging time.

•

The charging time is extended if pre-
conditioning has been selected. The
time required depends mainly on the
outside temperature.

Fuse

Normally several 230 V consumers are
included in a fuse circuit, so additional con-
sumers (e.g. lighting, vacuum cleaner, electric
drill, etc.) can be on the same fuse.
