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 should be washed as soon as it becomes dirty. The longer the dirt
remains, the more difficult it will be to keep the vehicle clean. It could also
lead to paint damage. Wash the vehicle in a car wash or garage with an oil separator.
Use a car washing detergent recommended by Volvo...
