Function  - Front/rear park assist - Starting and driving - Volvo XC90 Owners Manual - Volvo XC90

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.
