Roll stability control (RSC)
Volvo's Roll Stability Control (RSC) is a stability
system designed to help minimize the risk of a
rollover in emergency maneuvers or if a skid
should occur.
RSC registers the amount of change in the lat-
eral angle at which the vehicle is leaning. Using
this information, RSC calculates the likelihood of
a rollover. If there is an imminent risk of a rollover,
the stability system is activated, power to the
engine is cut and the brakes are applied to one
or more of the wheels until the vehicle regains
stability.
WARNING
The vehicle’s stability systems, including RSC,
do not replace the driver’s responsibility for
operating the vehicle in a safe manner. Speed
and driving style should always be adapted to
the current road, traffic and weather condi-
tions. Posted speed limits should always be
respected.

WARNING
•
The Speed Limiter cannot cover all driv-

The vehicle must always be driven
according to current traffic/road condi-
tions.
•
The driver must take action if SL does not
maintain the set maximum speed.
•
The driver is always responsible for oper-
ating the vehicle in a safe manner and
observing posted speed limits.
Limitations
On steep downslopes, the Speed limiter's braking
capacity may not be sufficient and the set maxi-
mum speed may be exceeded. If this happens,
Speed limit exceeded will be displayed in the
instrument panel to alert the driver.
This message will appear if the set maximum
speed is exceeded by more than approx. 2 mph
(3 km/h).
