Note Traffic detection examples Examples of different traffic scenarios can help you understand some of the limitations of your car's detection systems. Real-world scenarios are often more complex than the illustrative examples in this manual.
Page 235 Shape, size and number of objects Detection can be less reliable depending on the shape, size and number of objects in a detection zone. Identifying the distance to the closest vehicle ahead can become less accurate depending on these factors, especially if they are compounded. Small objects are harder to identify.
Page 236: Locations Of Cameras, Sensors And Radars
Important Road condition and irregularities Both common and uncommon road features can impact the effectiveness of the car's detection systems. Sharp bends and bumps in the road can temporarily obscure important parts of the car's surroundings, such as other vehicles or road markings. Non-standard or unusual road infrastructure might not be correctly identified by the car.
Page 237 Warning Clean regularly Camera, sensor and radar locations on the car must be cleaned on a regular basis and kept free from labels, objects, dirt and other potential obstructions. Otherwise, car functions may respond incorrectly or become less responsive or deactivated.
Page 238: Camera Detection And Limitations
Finding the parking sensors There are multiple parking sensors along the lower edge of your car. You can see their exact locations by looking for their button-like cover plates along the bumper panel. Important Cleaning in front of radars If you find dirt, snow or ice, or if the car indicates that a radar is blocked, you should address it as soon as possible. Always clean and clear a large area around the radars to make their full field of view available.
Page 239: Other Limitations
don’t stand out against the background. Fog, heavy rain, snow or dust storms can severely limit visibility for the cameras. Beware of dust, water or snow on the ground that may be disturbed and kicked up into the air by your car, other traffic or the wind.
Page 240 Radars use radio waves to collect information about the car's surroundings. They can identify the distance to objects and certain aspects of their movement. It's important not to block the radars. There are several radars aimed in different directions to collect information about the car's surroundings. This information is primarily used by driver support features in the car.
Page 241: Parking Sensor Detection And Limitations
Volvo recommends an authorised Volvo workshop for all servicing and repairs. 10.2.4.
