Volvo XC90: Driver support / Drive modes when using time interval to vehicle
The driver can choose different drive modes to determine how driver support
should maintain a time interval to the vehicle ahead.
Settings are made using the DRIVE MODE controls.
Select one of the following:
- Eco - Driver support will focus on providing good fuel economy, which
will increase the time interval to the vehicle ahead.
- Comfort - Driver support will focus on following the set time interval
to the vehicle ahead as smoothly as possible.
- Dynamic* - Driver support will focus on following the set time interval
to the vehicle ahead more exactly, which could mean faster acceleration and
heavier braking.
The time interval to the vehicle ahead can be set for the functions Adaptive
Cruise Control*, Pilot Assist* and Distance Alert*.
Different time intervals to the
vehicle ahead can be selected and are shown in the instrument panel as 1–5 horizontal
bars...
The driver support functions Adaptive Cruise Control* and Pilot Assist* have
a special brake function in slow traffic and while stationary. In certain situations,
the parking brake will be applied to keep the vehicle at a standstill...
