Volvo XC90: Driver support / Rear Collision Warning limitations
(Option/accessory.)
(Warning of collision from the rear.)
In some situations, it may be difficult for Rear Collision Warning (RCW) to
warn the driver of a collision risk.
This may be the case if:
- the vehicle approaching from the rear is detected at a late stage
- the vehicle approaching from the rear changes lanes at a late stage
- a trailer, bicycle holder or similar is connected to the vehicle's electrical
system - the function will then be automatically deactivated.
NOTE
In certain markets RCW does not warn with the direction indicators
due to local traffic regulations – in such cases, that part of the function is deactivated.
NOTE
The function uses the vehicle's camera and radar sensor, which has certain
general limitations.
