Function
The system is activated automatically when the vehicle is started. The indicator light in the button in the center console illuminates.
• The front park assist system is active from
the time the engine is started until the vehicle
exceeds a speed of approximately
10 mph (15 km/h). It is also active when the
vehicle is backing up.
• Rear park assist is active when the engine
is running and reverse gear has been
selected.
Rear park assist
The distance monitored behind the vehicle is
approximately 5 ft (1.5 m). The signal comes
from the rear speakers.
The system must be deactivated when towing a trailer, carrying bicycles in a rear-mounted carrier, etc, which could trigger the rear park assist system's sensors.
NOTE
Rear park assist is deactivated automatically
when towing a trailer if Volvo genuine
trailer wiring is used.
Front park assist
The distance monitored in front of the vehicle
is approximately 2.5 ft (0.8 m). The audible signal
comes from the audio system's front
speakers.
• It may not be possible to combine auxiliary headlights and front park assist since these lights could trigger the system's sensors.
