Volvo XC90: Driver support / City Safety steering assistance limitations during evasive maneuvers
City Safety steering assistance may have limited functionality in certain
situations and not intervene, e.g.:
- at speeds outside the range of 50-100 km/h (30-62 mph)
- if the driver does not take evasive action
- if speed-dependent power steering wheel resistance is working at reduced
power – e.g. during cooling due to overheating.
NOTE
The function uses the vehicle's camera and radar sensor, which has certain
general limitations.
City Safety steering assistance can help the driver steer away from a vehicle/obstacle
when it is not possible to avoid a collision by braking alone. City Safety steering
assistance is always activated and cannot be switched off...
City Safety1 can assist the driver by automatically braking the
vehicle when it is not possible to avoid a collision by steering alone.
City Safety assists the driver by periodically attempting to predict possible
"escape routes" to the sides of the vehicle in the event a slow-moving or stationary
vehicle were to be detected at a late stage...
Other information:
The vehicle's original tires can be inflated using the compressor in the tire
sealing system.
The compressor must be switched off. Make sure that the switch is in the
0 (Off) position and take out the electrical cable and the hose.
Unscrew the tire's valve cap and screw the hose's valve connector as far
as possible onto the valve...
Safety mode is a feature that is triggered after a collision if there is potential
damage to an important function in the vehicle, such as the fuel lines, sensors
for one of the safety systems, the brake system, etc.
If the vehicle has been involved in a collision, the text Safety mode See Owner's
manual may appear in the instrument panel along with the warning symbol if the panel
is undamaged..
