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:
City Safety1 can help the driver detect other vehicles, cyclists,
large animals and pedestrians.
Vehicles
City Safety can detect most vehicles that are stationary or are moving in the
same direction as your vehicle. In some cases, it can also detect oncoming vehicles
and crossing traffic...
Limitations
Main channel vs. sub-channels (FM only): The main channel is the
only channel that can receive in hybrid mode (both digital and analog). If a
frequency has subchannels, they are broadcast in digital mode only. The main
FM channel will be displayed as, for example, "WRIF-FM HD1"...
