04 Driver support
BLIS*
However, when the driver is slowly reversing
the car, the angle is changed in relation to the
vehicle/object that is blocking, at which the
blind sector rapidly decreases.
Examples of further limitations:
•
Dirt, ice and snow covering sensors may
reduce functionality and make it impossi-
ble to provide warnings. BLIS and CTA
are unable to detect hazards in such a
situation.

•
Do not affix any objects, tape or labels
within the area for the sensors
•
BLIS and CTA are deactivated when a
trailer is connected to the car's electrical
system.

Location of BLIS and CTA sensors.
The BLIS and CTA sensors are located inside
the rear wing/bumper on each side of the car.
•
To ensure optimal functionality the areas
in front of the sensors must be kept
clean.
IMPORTANT
Repair of the BLIS and CTA functions'
components must only be performed by a
workshop - an authorised Volvo workshop
is recommended.

tions fail or are interrupted, the combined
instrument panel may show a symbol, sup-
plemented by an explanatory message. Fol-
