Active Park Assist (Pap)* - Symbols And Messages; Blis (Blind Spot Information System) - Volvo V40 Owner's Manual

IMPORTANT
The PAP system's parameters may need
to be updated when changing to another
approved wheel rim size involving changed
tyre circumference. Consult a workshop -
an authorised Volvo workshop is recom-
mended.
Maintenance
The PAP sensors are located in the bumpers - 6
front and 4 rear.
For the PAP function to work correctly, its
sensors must be cleaned (p. 248) regularly
with water and car shampoo - these are the
same sensors as are used by parking assis-
tance (p. 245).

Active Park Assist (PAP)* - symbols
and messages
The Park Assist Pilot (PAP – Park Assist Pilot)
helps the driver to park by first checking
whether a space is sufficiently large and then
turning the steering wheel and steering the
car into the space. The combined instrument
panel uses symbols, graphics and text when
elements are to be executed.
The combined instrument panel can show dif-
ferent combinations of symbols and text with
varying content - sometimes with a self-
explanatory piece of advice on appropriate
action.
If a message says that the Park Assist Pilot is
disengaged, contact with an authorised Volvo
workshop is recommended.

07 Driver support

BLIS (Blind Spot Information System)

BLIS (Blind Spot Information System) is a
function designed for providing support for
the driver when driving in dense traffic on
roads with several lanes in the same direction.
BLIS is a driver's aid intended to provide a
warning about:
•
vehicles in the car's blind spot
•
quickly approaching vehicles in the left
and right lanes closest to the car.
WARNING
BLIS is a supplementary aid and does not
work in all situations.
BLIS is no substitute for a safe driving
style and the use of rearview and door mir-
rors.
BLIS can never replace the driver's
responsibility and attention - it is always
the driver's responsibility to change lanes
in a safe manner.
