Common limitations for camera and
radar
Blocked unit
The marked area must be cleaned regularly and kept
free from stickers, objects, shade film, etc.
The camera unit is placed inside the upper
section of the windscreen together with the
car's radar unit.
Do not place, stick or mount anything on the
inside or outside of the windscreen, in front of
or around the camera and radar unit – this
may interfere with camera and radar-based
functions. This may result functions being
reduced, being switched off completely or giv-
ing incorrect function responses.
High temperature
At very high temperatures the camera and
radar unit can temporarily be switched off for

about 15 minutes after the engine is started so
as to protect the unit's electronics. The cam-
era and radar unit restarts automatically when
the temperature has fallen sufficiently.
Damaged windscreen
NOTE
If not rectified it can lead to reduced per-
formance for the driver support systems
that use the camera and radar unit. This
may result functions being reduced, being
switched off completely or giving incorrect
function responses.
The following is also applicable so as not to
risk incorrect function for the driver supports
that use the radar unit:
If a scratch, crack or stone chip appears

on the windscreen in front of any of the
"windows" for the camera and radar unit
and covers an area of
approx. 0.5 × 3.0 mm (0.02 × 0.12 in.) or

more, a workshop must be contacted
so that the windscreen can be replaced.
Volvo recommends not repairing cracks,
•
scratches or stone chips in the area in
front of the camera and radar unit – the
entire windscreen should be replaced
instead.
Before replacing a windscreen, contact a
•
workshop 139 to verify that the correct
windscreen has been ordered and will be
fitted.
The same type of windscreen wipers or
•
windscreen wipers approved by Volvo
must be fitted when the windscreen is
replaced.
When replacing the windscreen, the cam-
•
era and radar unit must be recalibrated by
139
a workshop to ensure the functionality
of all the camera and radar-based systems
in the car.
Further limitations for radar
Vehicle speed
The radar unit's ability to detect a vehicle
ahead is greatly reduced if the speed of the
vehicle ahead is very different to the speed of
your own car.
