sensor, the system may apply the brakes in your
vehicle suddenly or not at all.
Pilot Assist is designed to follow a vehicle ahead
in the same traffic lane at a preset time interval
set by the driver. If the radar sensor does not
detect a vehicle ahead, the vehicle will instead
maintain the speed set by the driver. This will also
be the case if a vehicle ahead accelerates and
exceeds the set speed.
•
Pilot Assist can follow another vehicle from a
standstill up to a speed of approx. 125 mph
(200 km/h)
•
Pilot Assist can provide steering assistance
from very low speeds up to approx. 87 mph
(140 km/h).
Never exceed posted speed limits.
WARNING
•
Pilot Assist is not a collision avoidance
system. The driver must react if the sys-
tem does not detect another vehicle.
•
Pilot Assist does not react to people, ani-
mals, stationary objects, small vehicles
(such as bicycles and motorcycles), low
trailers and slow moving, parked or
approaching vehicles.
•
Do not use Pilot Assist in demanding
driving conditions such as city driving or
other heavy traffic situations, in areas with
intersections, in slippery conditions, when
there is a great deal of water or slush on
the road, during heavy rain or snow, in
poor visibility, on winding roads, on high-
way on- or off-ramps or if the vehicle is
towing a trailer, boat, etc.
NOTE
•
Pilot Assist maintenance should only be
carried out by a trained and qualified
Volvo service technician.
•
Pilot Assist regulates your vehicle's
speed using the accelerator pedal and
the brakes. Please be aware that there
may be a faint sound from the brakes
when the system is using them.
Pilot Assist in curves and when a road
divides
Pilot Assist interacts with the driver, who should
never wait for steering assistance from this func-
tion. The driver should always be prepared to
steer the vehicle, particularly in curves.
As the vehicle approaches a highway exit or if a
lane divides, the driver should always steer the
vehicle toward the desired lane in order to indi-
cated the direction for Pilot Assist.
Pilot Assist attempts to keep the
vehicle in the center of a traffic lane
When Pilot Assist provides steering assistance, it
attempts to keep the vehicle in the center of the
traffic lane, which is why it is advisable to let the
vehicle find the optimal position in the lane. The
driver should ensure that the vehicle is properly in
the traffic lane and should steer the vehicle if
adjustments are necessary.
If Pilot Assist does not guide the vehicle into the
traffic lane properly, try deactivating the function
or switching to Adaptive Cruise Control.
