2023 Volvo S60 Cruise control functions

Cruise control functions

There are several driver support systems that can assist you while driving in order to maintain a suitable speed depending on the situation. Here is a summary to make them more easily distinguishable from each other. It is recommended that you read all sections in the Owner’s Manual that relate to a function in order to learn about factors such as its limitations and what the driver should be aware of before using the system.

Symbol in the driver display
Brief description	The driver controls the speed with the accelerator pedal but is prevented by the speed limiter from mistakenly exceeding a preselected/preset maximum speed.	The automatic speed limiter uses speed information from the Road Sign Information function(Option/accessory) to automatically adapt the maximum speed of the car.	The cruise control helps the driver to maintain an even speed, which can result in a more relaxed driving experience on, for example, motorways and long straight main roads in smooth traffic flows.	Pilot Assist without steering assistance can help the driver to maintain a constant speed, combined with a preselected time interval to the vehicle ahead.	Pilot Assist with steering assistance can help the driver to drive the car between the lane’s lane markings using steering assistance as well as to maintain an even speed, combined with a preselected time interval to the vehicle ahead.
