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 is equipped with airbags and inflatable curtains for the driver
and passengers.
WARNING
If the airbag warning light stays on after the engine has started or if
it illuminates while you are driving, have the vehicle inspected by a trained and
qualified Volvo service technician as soon as possible...
In the ceiling in front of the driver's and front passenger's seats, there
are sun visors that can be lowered and angled to the side as necessary.
The illustration is generic – the design may vary.
The mirror lighting* comes on automatically when the visor is lifted up...
