Distance Warning - Volvo S60 Owner's Manual

General
Distance Warning (Distance Alert) is a function
that informs the driver about the time interval
to vehicles in front.
Distance Warning is active at speeds above
30 km/h and only reacts to vehicles driving in
front of the car, in the same direction. No dis-
tance information is provided for oncoming,
slow or stationary vehicles.

interval.

to the vehicle ahead is shorter than the pre-
set value - the speed of the driver's vehicle
is not affected.
