Low Speed Control (LSC)
Low Speed Control (LSC) helps make off-road
driving easier on slippery surfaces when towing
a trailer on grass, etc. This feature is part of the
Off Road drive mode.
When driving at low speeds, LSC prioritizes low
gears and all wheel drive to help avoid wheel spin
and to improve the vehicle's tractive force. The
accelerator pedal and engine react differently to
make low-speed driving easier.
It is activated along with Hill Descent Control
(HDC), which increases engine braking to help
keep vehicle speed low and smooth, even driving
down steep hills.
Activating LSC
This function can be activated in different ways,
depending on how the vehicle is equipped.
Using the drive mode control*
Select the Off Road drive mode to activate the
function.
Select any other drive mode to turn it off.
From the center display's Function view
Models without the drive mode
control have a button for
Hill
Descent Control in the center
display's Function view.
•
Tap the button to activate. A light in the but-
ton illuminates when the function is acti-
vated.
NOTE
The function is deactivated when driving at
higher speeds and must be reactivated at
lower speeds if so desired.

All Wheel Drive (AWD)
9
Your Volvo can be equipped with All Wheel
Drive, which means that power is distributed
automatically between the front and rear wheels.
Under normal driving conditions, most of the
engine's power is directed to the front wheels.
However, if there is any tendency for the front
wheels to spin, an electronically controlled cou-
pling distributes power to the wheels that have
the best traction.
AWD reacts differently, depending on the drive
mode* selected.
