Driver support -> Cruise control for Your Volvo XC40 SUV 2020

•

In order to start the cruise control from the

standby mode, the car's current speed must

be 30 km/h (20 mph) or higher.

1. Press ◀ (1) or ▶ (3) to scroll to the symbol

for cruise control

(4).

Using engine braking instead of the

foot brake

> The symbol is grey – cruise control is in

standby mode.

With Cruise Control, speed is regulated with

less frequent application of the foot brake. On

a downhill gradient it may sometimes be

desirable to start moving a little faster and

limit the acceleration by engine braking. In this

case the driver can temporarily disable foot

brake application by Cruise Control.

Adaptive cruise control*⁵⁴

Standby mode for cruise control

Automatic standby mode

Activation of automatic standby mode can be

due to one of the following:

Cruise control (CC⁵³) can be deactivated and

set in standby mode. This can take place due

to driver intervention or automatically.

Standby mode means that the function is

selected in the driver display but not activated.

In this case, cruise control does not regulate

speed.

The adaptive cruise control (ACC⁵⁵) can help

the driver to maintain a constant speed, com-

bined with a preset time interval to the vehi-

cle ahead.

The wheels are losing traction.

The engine speed is too low/high.

Brake temperature is too high.

Speed falls below 30 km/h (20 mph).

•

The driver must then control the speed him-

self/herself.

Standby mode on driver intervention

Cruise control is deactivated and set to

standby mode if any of the following occur:

•

The camera and radar unit measures the distance to

the vehicle ahead.

The driver must then control the speed him-

self/herself.

An adaptive cruise control can provide a more

relaxing driving experience on long journeys on

motorways and long straight main roads in

smooth traffic flows.

A temporary increase in speed with the accel-

erator pedal, e.g. during overtaking, does not

affect the setting - the car returns to the last

stored speed when the accelerator pedal is

released.

The driver selects the desired speed and a

time interval to the vehicle ahead. If the cam-

era and radar unit detects a slower vehicle in

front of the car, the speed is adapted automat-

ically via the preset time interval to the vehicle.

Controls for adaptive cruise control *

The adaptive cruise control aims to:

•

(p. 305)

regulate the speed smoothly. In situations

that demand sudden braking the driver

must brake himself/herself. This applies in

cases of large speed differences or if the

vehicle in front brakes suddenly. Due to

the limitations of the radar unit, braking

may come unexpectedly or not at all.

follow the vehicle ahead in the same lane

at a time interval set by the driver. If the

radar unit cannot see any vehicle in front

then the car will instead maintain the

speed set and stored by the driver. This

also takes place if the speed of the vehicle

ahead increases and exceeds the stored

speed.

Driver support functions are not a sub-

judgement. The driver is always

responsible for ensuring the car is

driven in a safe manner, at the appro-

priate speed, with an appropriate dis-

tance to other vehicles, and in accord-

ance with current traffic rules and reg-

ulations.

Time interval

Selecting and activating adaptive

cruise control*⁶¹

The time interval is only

adjusted to the vehicle ahead

by the Adaptive cruise control

when the distance symbol

shows two vehicles. At the

same time a speed range is

marked.

Adaptive cruise control (ACC⁶²) must first be

selected and then activated to enable it to

control speed and distance.

When driving

In the following illustrative example, the road

sign information* (RSI⁶⁰) function informs the

driver that the maximum permitted speed is

130 km/h (80 mph).

The previous illustration shows that the adap-

tive cruise control is set to maintain 110 km/h

(68 mph) and at the same time is following a

vehicle ahead which is keeping the same

speed.

To start the function requires the following:

Steep roads and/or heavy load

Bear in mind that the adaptive cruise control is

primarily intended for use when driving on

level road surfaces. The function may have dif-

ficulty in keeping the correct distance from the

vehicle ahead when driving on steep downhill

slopes - in which case, be extra attentive and

ready to brake.

The driver opens the door.

•

The driver takes off the seatbelt.

The engine speed is too low/high.

One or more wheels lose traction.

The brake temperature is high.

The parking brake is applied.

The camera and radar unit is covered by

e.g. snow or heavy rainfall (camera lens/

radio waves are blocked).

Do not use adaptive cruise control if the car

has a heavy load or a trailer is connected to

the car.

The speed is below 5 km/h (3 mph) and

ACC is uncertain whether the vehicle

ahead is a stationary vehicle or an object,

such as a speed bump.

•

Drive mode unavailable

Drive mode Off Road cannot be selected

when the adaptive cruise control is activated.

The speed is below 5 km/h (3 mph) and

the vehicle ahead turns off so that ACC no

longer has a vehicle to follow.

•

Speed is reduced to below 30 km/h

(20 mph) - only applies to cars with man-

ual gearbox.
