Reading the Owner's Manual

Introduction

A good way of getting to know your new car is to read the owner's manual, ideally before your first journey. This will give you the opportunity to familiarise yourself with new functions, to see how best to handle the car in different sit- uations, and to make the best use of all the car's features. Please pay attention to the safety instructions contained in the manual.

The specifications, design features and illus- trations in this owner's manual are not binding. We reserve the right to make modifications without prior notice. Volvo Car Corporation

Option

All types of option/accessory are marked with an asterisk*.

In addition to standard equipment, this manual also describes options (factory fitted equip- ment) and certain accessories (retrofitted extra equipment).

The equipment described in the owner's man- ual is not available in all cars - they have dif- ferent equipment depending on adaptations for the needs of different markets and national or local laws and regulations.

In the event of uncertainty over what is stand- ard or an option/accessory, contact a Volvo dealer.

Special texts

WARNING

Warning texts advise of a risk of personal injury.

IMPORTANT

Important texts advise of a risk of material damage.

NOTE

NOTE texts give advice or tips that facilitate the use of features and functions for exam- ple.

Footnote

There is footnote information in the owner's manual that is located at the bottom of the page. This information is an addition to the text that it refers to via a number. If the footnote refers to text in a table then letters are used instead of numbers for referral.

Message texts

There are displays in the car that show text messages. These text messages are high-

lighted in the owner's manual by means of the text being slightly larger and printed in grey. Examples of this are in menu texts and mes- sage texts on the information display (e.g. AUDIO SETTINGS).

Recording data

Your vehicle contains a number of computers whose function is to continuously check and monitor the vehicle's operation and function- ality. Some of the computers can record infor- mation during normal driving if they detect an error. In addition, information is recorded in the event of a crash or incident. Parts of the recor- ded information are required so that techni- cians can diagnose and rectify faults in the vehicle during servicing and maintenance and so that Volvo can fulfil legal requirements and other regulations. In addition to this, the infor- mation is used for research purposes by Volvo in order to continually develop quality and safety, as the information can contribute to a better understanding of the factors that cause accidents and injuries. The information includes details of the status and functionality of various systems and modules in the vehicle with regard to engine, throttle, steering and brake systems, amongst other things. This information may include details regarding the

way the driver drives the vehicle, such as vehi- cle speed, brake and accelerator pedal use, steering wheel movement and whether or not the driver and passengers have used their seatbelts. For the reasons given this informa- tion may be stored in the vehicle's computers for a certain length of time, but also as a result of a collision or incident. This information may be stored by Volvo as long as it can help to further develop and further enhance safety and quality and as long as there are legal require- ments and other regulations that Volvo needs to consider.

Volvo will not contribute to the above-descri- bed information being disclosed to third parties without the vehicle owner's consent. However, due to national legislation and regulations Volvo may be required to disclose such infor- mation to authorities such as police authorities, or others who may assert a legal right to have access to it.

To be able to read and interpret the information recorded by the computers in the vehicle requires special technical equipment that Volvo, and workshops that have entered into agreements with Volvo, have access to. Volvo is responsible that the information, which is transferred to Volvo during servicing and main- tenance, is stored and handled in a secure manner and that the handling complies with

applicable legal requirements. For further infor- mation - contact a Volvo dealer.

Accessories and extra equipment

The incorrect connection and installation of accessories can negatively affect the car's electrical system. Certain accessories only function when their associated software is installed in the car's computer system. We therefore recommend that you always contact an authorised Volvo workshop before installing accessories which are connected to or affect the electrical system.

Change of ownership for cars with Volvo On Call *

Volvo On Call is a supplemental service that consists of safety, security and comfort serv- ices. If the car has Volvo On Call and there is a change of owner, it is very important that these services are discontinued so that the former owner cannot access the services in the car. Contact the call centre by pressing the ON

CALL button in the car or contact an author- ised Volvo workshop. See also "Changing the security code" in the owner's manual for Volvo On Call.

Introduction

Volvo and the environment

12 * Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.

Volvo Cars' environmental philosophy

G 00 00 00

Environmental care is one of Volvo Car Corpo- ration's core values which influence all opera- tions. We also believe that our customers share our consideration for the environment.

Your Volvo complies with strict international environmental standards and is also manufac- tured in one of the cleanest and most resource- efficient plants in the world. Volvo Car Corpo- ration has global ISO certification, which includes the environmental standard ISO 14001 covering all factories and several of our other units. We also set requirements for our partners so that they work systematically with environmental issues.

Fuel consumption

Volvo cars have competitive fuel consumption in each of their respective classes. Lower fuel consumption generally results in lower emis- sion of the greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide.

It is possible for the driver to influence fuel con- sumption. For more information read under the heading, Reducing environmental impact.

Efficient emission control

Your Volvo is manufactured following the con- cept "Clean inside and out" a concept that encompasses a clean interior environment as well as highly efficient emission control. In

many cases the exhaust emissions are well below the applicable standards.

Clean air in the passenger compartment

A passenger compartment filter prevents dust and pollen from entering the passenger com- partment via the air intake.

A sophisticated air quality system, IAQS* (Inte- rior Air Quality System) ensures that the incom- ing air is cleaner than the air in the traffic out- side.

The system consists of an electronic sensor and a carbon filter. The incoming air is moni- tored continuously and if there is an increase in

Introduction

Volvo and the environment

* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction. 13

the level of certain unhealthy gases such as carbon monoxide then the air intake is closed. Such a situation may arise in heavy traffic, queues and tunnels for example.

The entry of nitrous oxides, ground-level ozone and hydrocarbons is prevented by the carbon filter.

Interior

The interior of a Volvo is designed to be plea- sant and comfortable, even for people with contact allergies and for asthma sufferers. Extreme attention has been given to choosing environmentally-compatible materials.

Volvo workshops and the environment

Regular maintenance creates the conditions for a long service life and low fuel consumption for your car. In this way you contribute to a cleaner environment. When Volvo's workshops are entrusted with the service and mainte- nance of your car it becomes part of our sys- tem. We make clear demands regarding the way in which our workshops are designed in order to prevent spills and discharges into the environment. Our workshop staff have the knowledge and the tools required to guarantee good environmental care.

Reducing environmental impact

You can easily help reduce environmental impact - here are a few tips:

Avoid letting the engine idle - switch off the engine when stationary for longer periods. Pay attention to local regulations.

Drive economically - think ahead.

Perform service and maintenance in accordance with the owner's manual's instructions - follow the Service and War- ranty Booklet's recommended intervals.

If the car is equipped with an engine block heater*, use it before starting from cold - it improves starting capacity and reduces wear in cold weather and the engine rea- ches normal operating temperature more quickly, which lowers consumption and reduces emissions.

High speed increases consumption con- siderably due to increased wind resistance - a doubling of speed increases wind resis- tance 4 times.

Always dispose of environmentally hazar- dous waste, such as batteries and oils, in an environmentally safe manner. Consult a workshop in the event of uncertainty about how this type of waste should be discarded - an authorised Volvo workshop is recom- mended.

Following this advice can save money, the planet's resources are saved, and the car's durability is extended. For more information and further advice, see the pages 140 and 278.

Recycling

As a part of Volvo's environmental work, it is important that the car is recycled in an envi- ronmentally sound manner. Almost all of the car can be recycled. The last owner of the car is therefore requested to contact a dealer for referral to a certified/approved recycling facility.

General information

G 02 01 04

Tensioning the hip strap. The belt must be posi- tioned low down.

Heavy braking can have serious consequences if the seatbelts are not used. Ensure that all passengers use their seatbelts. It is important that the seatbelt lies against the body so it can provide maximum protection. Do not lean the backrest too far back. The seatbelt is designed to protect in a normal seating position.

Putting on a seatbelt

Pull the seatbelt out slowly and secure it by pressing the buckle into the lock. A loud "click" indicates that the seatbelt has locked.

Releasing the seatbelt

Press the red lock button and then let the seatbelt retract. If the seatbelt does not retract fully, feed the seatbelt in by hand so that it does not hang loose.

The seatbelt locks and cannot be with-

drawn:

if it is pulled out too quickly

during braking and acceleration

if the car leans heavily.

Keep in mind the following

do not use clips or anything else that can prevent the seatbelt from fitting properly

ensure that the seatbelt is not twisted or caught on anything

the hip strap must be positioned low down (not over the abdomen)

tension the hip strap over the lap by pulling the diagonal shoulder belt as illustrated.

WARNING

The seatbelts and airbags interact. If a seat- belt is not used or is used incorrectly, this may diminish the protection provided by the airbag in the event of a collision.

WARNING

Each seatbelt is designed for only one per- son.

WARNING

Never modify or repair the seatbelt yourself. Volvo recommends that you contact an authorised Volvo workshop. If the seatbelt has been subjected to a major load, such as in conjunction with a collision, the entire seatbelt must be replaced. Some of the seatbelt's protective properties may have been lost even if the seatbelt does not appear damaged. The seatbelt must also be replaced if it shows signs of wear or dam- age. The new seatbelt must be type- approved and designed for installation at the same location as the replaced seatbelt.

WARNING

The rear seat is designed for a maximum of two passengers.

01 Safety

Seatbelts 01

Seatbelts and pregnancy

G 02 01 05

The seatbelt should always be worn during pregnancy. But it is crucial that it be worn in the correct way. The diagonal section of the seat- belt should wrap over the shoulder then be routed between the breasts and to the side of the abdomen.

The lap section of the seatbelt should lay flat over the thighs and as low as possible under the abdomen. It must never be allowed to ride upward. Remove the slack from the seatbelt and ensure that it fits as close to the body as possible. In addition, check that there are no twists in the seatbelt.

As a pregnancy progresses, pregnant drivers should adjust their seats and steering wheel

such that they can easily maintain control of the vehicle as they drive (which means that they must be able to easily operate the foot pedals and steering wheel). They should strive to posi- tion the seat with as large a distance as possi- ble between their abdomen and the steering wheel.

Seatbelt reminder

G 02 96 52

Unbelted occupants will be reminded to fasten their seatbelts by means of an audio and visual reminder. The audio reminder is speed dependent, and in some cases time depend- ent. The visual reminder is located in the roof console and the combined instrument panel.

Child seats are not covered by the seatbelt reminder system.

Rear seat

The seatbelt reminder in the rear seat has two subfunctions:

Provides information on which seatbelts are being used in the rear seat. A message is shown in the information display when the seatbelts are used. The message is cleared automatically after driving for approximately 30 seconds or after press- ing the indicator stalk's READ button.

Provides a warning if one of the rear seat- belts is unfastened during a journey. This warning takes the form of a message on the information display along with the audio/visual signal. The warning ceases when the seatbelt is re-fastened or when acknowledged manually by pressing the READ button.

The message on the information display show- ing which seatbelts are in use is always avail- able. Press the READ button to see stored messages.

Certain markets

An audio signal and indicator lamp remind the driver if not wearing a seatbelt to use one. At low speed, the audio reminder will sound for the first 6 seconds.

01 Safety

Seatbelts 01

18

Seatbelt tensioner

All the seatbelts are equipped with seatbelt tensioners. A mechanism in the seatbelt ten- sioner tightens the seatbelt in the event of a sufficiently violent collision. The seatbelt then provides more effective restraint for occu- pants.

WARNING

Never insert the tongue of the passenger's seatbelt into the buckle on the driver's side. Always insert the tongue of the seatbelt into the buckle on the correct side. Do not make any damages on seatbelts nor insert any foreign objects into a buckle. The seatbelts and buckles would then possibly not func- tion as intended in the event of a collision. There is a risk of serous injury.

Seatbelt guide

G 02 01 06

The seatbelt guide is fitted on both the driver's seat and passenger seat.

The seatbelt guide is an aid for providing better access to the seatbelt. When getting into and out of the rear seat, remove the seatbelt from the seatbelt guide and position it furthest back on the seatbelt bar. Refit the seatbelt into the seatbelt guide afterwards.

01 Safety

Airbag system 01

19

Warning symbol on the combined instrument panel

The warning symbol in the combined instru- ment panel illuminates when the remote con- trol key is turned to key position I, II or III. The symbol goes out after approx. 6 seconds pro- vided the airbag system is fault-free.

As well as the warning symbol, a message may appear on the dis- play in appropriate cases. If the warning symbol malfunctions, the warning triangle illuminates and the message SRS AIRBAG

SERVICE REQUIRED or SRS

AIRBAG SERVICE URGENT

appears in the display. Volvo rec- ommends that you contact an authorised Volvo workshop immediately.

WARNING

If the warning symbol for the airbag system remains illuminated or illuminates while driv- ing, it means that the airbag system does not have full functionality. The symbol indi- cates a fault in the seatbelt tensioner sys- tem, SIPS, SRS or the IC system. Volvo rec- ommends that you contact an authorised Volvo workshop immediately.

01 Safety

Airbags 01

20

Airbag system

G 02 01 11

SRS system, left-hand drive

The system consists of airbags and sensors. A sufficiently violent collision trips the sensors and the airbag(s) are inflated with hot gas. To cushion the impact, the airbag deflates when compressed. When this occurs, smoke escapes into the car. This is completely nor- mal. The entire process, including inflation and deflation of the airbag, takes place within tenths of a second.

WARNING

Volvo recommends that you contact an authorised Volvo workshop for repair. Defective work in the airbag system could cause malfunction and result in serious per- sonal injury.

G 02 01 10

SRS system, right-hand drive

NOTE

The sensors react differently depending on the course of the collision and whether or not the seatbelts on the driver's side and passenger side are used.

It is therefore possible that only one (or none) of the airbags may inflate in a colli- sion. The airbag system senses the force of the collision on the car and adapts accord- ingly so that one or more airbags is deployed.

The capacities of the airbags are also adap- ted to the collision force to which they are subjected.

Location of the passenger airbag in left-hand drive and right-hand drive cars.

WARNING

Do not put objects in front of or above the instrument panel where the passenger air- bag is located.

Airbag on the driver's side

The car has an airbag to supplement the pro- tection afforded by the seatbelt on the driver's side. It is folded up into the centre of the steer- ing wheel. The steering wheel is marked SRS

AIRBAG.

WARNING

The seatbelts and airbags interact. If a seat- belt is not used or is used incorrectly, this may diminish the protection provided by the airbag in the event of a collision.

Passenger airbag

The car has an airbag to supplement the pro- tection afforded by the seatbelt on the passen- ger side. It is folded up into a compartment above the glovebox. The cover panel is marked SRS AIRBAG.

WARNING

To minimise the risk of injury if the airbag deploys, passengers must sit as upright as possible with their feet on the floor and back against the backrest. Seatbelts must be secured.

WARNING

Never place a child in a child seat or on a booster cushion in the front seat if the airbag is activated.1

Never allow anybody to stand or sit in front of the front passenger seat. Children under 140 cm must never sit in the front passenger seat if the airbag is activated.

Failure to follow the advice given above can endanger life.

General information

The airbag for the front passenger seat can be deactivated if the car is equipped with a switch, PACOS (Passenger Airbag Cut Off Switch). For information on how to activate/deactivate, see under the heading Activating/deactivating.

Key switch off/switch

The switch for the passenger airbag (PACOS) is located on the passenger end of the instru- ment panel and is accessible when the pas- senger door is open, (see under the heading below, Activating/deactivating).

Check that the switch is in the required posi- tion. Volvo recommends that the key blade is used to change position.

For information on the key blade, see page 121.

WARNING

Failure to follow the advice given above can endanger life.

WARNING

If the car is equipped with a front passenger airbag, but does not have a switch (PACOS), then the airbag will always be activated.

WARNING

Never place a child in a child seat or on a booster cushion in the front seat if the airbag is activated and the symbol in the roof console is illuminated. Failure to follow this advice could endanger the life of the child.

WARNING

Do not allow anyone to sit in the front pas- senger seat if the text message in the roof console indicates that the airbag is deacti- vated, and if the warning symbol for the air- bag system is also displayed on the com- bined instrument panel. This indicates that there has been a severe malfunction. Volvo recommends that you visit an authorised Volvo workshop as soon as possible.

Activating/deactivating

Switch location

01 Safety

Side airbags (SIPS bags) 01

24

Side airbag

G 02 01 18

Side airbag locations.

In a side impact collision a large proportion of the collision force is transferred by the SIPS (Side Impact Protection System) to beams, pil- lars, the floor, the roof and other structural parts of the body. The side airbags at the driv- er's and front passenger seats protect the chest area and are an important part of the SIPS. The side airbags are located in the front seat backrests.

WARNING

Volvo recommends that repairs are only carried out by an authorised Volvo workshop. Defective work in the SIPS- bag system could cause malfunction and result in serious personal injury.

Do not place any objects in the area between the outside of the seat and the door panel, since this area is required by the side airbag.

Volvo recommends the use only of car seat covers approved by Volvo. Other seat covers may impede the operation of the side airbags.

Side airbags are a supplement the seat- belts. Always use a seatbelt.

Child seats and side airbags

The protection provided by the car to children seated in a child seat or on a booster cushion is not diminished by the side airbag.

A child seat or booster cushion can be placed on the front passenger seat provided that the car does not have an activated1 passenger air- bag.

Location

Driver's seat, left-hand drive.

1 For information on activated/deactivated airbag (SRS), see page 22.

01 Safety

Side airbags (SIPS bags) 01

25

Front passenger seat, left-hand drive.

The SIPS bag system consists of side airbags and sensors. A sufficiently violent collision trips the sensors and the side airbags are inflated. The airbag inflates between the occupant and the door panel and thereby cushions the initial impact. The airbag deflates when compressed by the collision. The side airbag is normally only deployed on the side of the collision.

01 Safety

Inflatable Curtain (DMIC) 01

26

Properties

G 02 54 24

The inflatable curtain, DMIC (Door Mounted Inflatable Curtain), is a supplement to the SIPS system. It is fitted along the inside of the driv- er's and passenger doors and protects both front seat occupants. The inflatable curtain is activated by sensors in the event of a suffi- ciently violent collision or if the car is at risk of overturning. When deployed, the inflatable cur- tain inflates. The inflatable curtain helps to pre- vent the driver and front seat passenger from striking their heads on the inside of the car dur- ing a collision. The inflatable curtain is deployed irrespective of whether the roof is open or closed.

G 02 54 25

WARNING

Do not screw or install anything onto the car's headlining or side panels. This could compromise the intended protection. Volvo recommends that you only ever use Volvo genuine parts that are approved for place- ment in these areas.

WARNING

The inflatable curtain is a supplement to the seatbelts.

Always use a seatbelt.

WARNING

There is a risk of personal injury if the driver or passenger is leaning against the door panel when the inflatable curtain deploys. This could also compromise the intended protection.

01 Safety

WHIPS 01

27

Protection against whiplash injury WHIPS

The whiplash protection system (WHIPS) con- sists of energy absorbing backrests and spe- cially designed head restraints for the front seats. The system is actuated by a rear-end collision, where the angle and speed of the col- lision, and the nature of the colliding vehicle all have an influence.

WARNING

The WHIPS system is a supplement to the seatbelts. Always use a seatbelt.

Properties of the seat

When the WHIPS system is deployed, the front seat backrests are lowered backward to alter the seating position of the driver and front seat passenger. This reduces the risk of whiplash injury.

WARNING

Never modify or repair the seat or WHIPS system yourself. Volvo recommends that you contact an authorised Volvo workshop.

WHIPS system and child seats/booster

cushions

The protection provided by the car to children seated in a child seat or on a booster cushion is not diminished by the WHIPS system.

Correct seating position

For the best possible protection, the driver and front seat passenger should sit in the centre of the seat with as little space as possible between the head and the head restraint.

01 Safety

WHIPS 01

28

Do not obstruct the WHIPS system

G 02 01 25

Do not leave any objects on the floor behind the driver's seat/passenger seat that may prevent the WHIPS system from functioning.

WARNING

Do not squeeze rigid objects between the rear seat cushion and the front seat back- rest. Make sure you do not to obstruct the function of the WHIPS system.

WARNING

If a seat has been subjected to extreme forces, such as due to a rear-end collision, the WHIPS system must be checked. Volvo recommends that it is checked by an authorised Volvo workshop.

Part of the WHIPS system's protective capacity may have been lost even if the seats appear to be undamaged.

Volvo recommends that you contact an authorised Volvo workshop to have the sys- tem checked even after a minor rear-end collision.

ROPS function

G 02 07 97

Roll bars in raised position.

The ROPS system consists of strong roll bars which are located behind the passengers' head restraints, as well as sensors. In the event of a situation where the car is at risk of over- turning, or in the event of a sufficiently violent collision from behind, the sensors detect this and the roll bars rise up behind the passengers' heads. The roll bars are deployed irrespective of whether the roof is open or closed.

Volvo recommends that you always contact an authorised Volvo workshop if the ROPS system has deployed.

WARNING

Do not carry out any work on the ROPS sys- tem.

Do not place any objects on the ROPS sys- tem or behind the passengers' head restraints.

A The bodywork of the car could be greatly deformed in a collision without airbag deployment. A number of factors such as the rigidity and weight of the object hit, the speed of the car, the angle of the collision etc. affects how the different safety systems of the car are activated.

If the airbags have been deployed, the follow- ing is recommended:

Recovering the car. Volvo recommends that you have it conveyed to an authorised Volvo workshop. Do not drive with deployed airbags.

Volvo recommends that you engage an authorised Volvo workshop to handle the replacement of components in the car's safety systems.

Always contact a doctor.

NOTE

The airbag, SIPS, DMIC, belt tensioner and ROPS systems are deployed only once dur- ing a collision.

WARNING

The airbag system's control module is located in the centre console. If the centre console is drenched with water or other liq- uid, disconnect the battery cables. Do not attempt to start the car since the airbags may deploy. Recovering the car. Volvo rec- ommends that you have it conveyed to an authorised Volvo workshop.

WARNING

Never drive with deployed airbags. They can make steering difficult. Other safety systems may also be damaged. The smoke and dust created when the airbags are deployed can cause skin and eye irritation/ injury after intensive exposure. In case of irritation, wash with cold water. The rapid deployment sequence and airbag fabric may cause friction and skin burns.

01 Safety

Crash mode 01

32

Driving after a collision

G 02 90 42

If the car is involved in a collision, the text CRASH MODE SEE MANUAL may appear on the information display. This means that the car has reduced functionality. Crash mode is a protective state that is enforced when the col- lision may have damaged any of the car's vital functions, such as the fuel lines, sensors for one of the safety systems, or the brake system.

Attempting to start the car

First, check that no fuel is leaking from the car. There must be no smell of fuel either.

If everything seems normal and you have checked for indications of fuel leakage, you may attempt to start the car.

Firstly, remove the remote control key and then reinsert it. The car's electronics will then try to reset themselves to normal mode. Then try to start the car. If CRASH MODE SEE

MANUAL is still shown on the display then the car must not be driven or towed. Even if the car appears to be driveable, hidden damage may make the car impossible to control once mov- ing.

Moving the car

If NORMAL MODE is shown after CRASH

MODE SEE MANUAL has been reset, the car can be moved carefully out of a dangerous position. Do not move the car further than nec- essary.

WARNING

Never attempt to repair your car or reset the electronics yourself if the car has been in crash mode. This could result in personal injury or the car not functioning as normal. Volvo recommends that you always engage an authorised Volvo workshop to check and restore the car to NORMAL MODE after CRASH MODE SEE MANUAL has been displayed.

WARNING

Never, under any circumstances, attempt to restart the car if it smells of fuel when the CRASH MODE SEE MANUAL message is displayed. Leave the car at once.

WARNING

If the car is in crash mode it must not be towed. It must be transported from its loca- tion. Volvo recommends that you have it conveyed to an authorised Volvo workshop.

Children should sit comfortably and safely

Volvo recommends that children travel in rear- facing child seats until as late an age as pos- sible, at least until 3-4 years of age, and then front-facing booster cushions/child seats until up to 10 years of age.

The position of a child in the car and the choice of equipment are dictated by the child's weight and size, for more information, see page 35.

NOTE

Regulations regarding the placement of children in cars vary from country to coun- try. Check what does apply.

Children of all ages and sizes must always sit correctly secured in the car. Never allow a child to sit on the knee of a passenger.

Volvo has child safety equipment (child seats, booster cushions & attachment devices) which is designed for your particular car. Using Vol- vo's child safety equipment provides you with optimum conditions for your child to travel safely in the car. Furthermore, the child safety equipment fits and is easy to use.

NOTE

In the event of questions when fitting child safety products, contact the manufacturer for clearer instructions.

Child seats

G 02 01 28

Child seats and airbags are not compatible.

NOTE

When using child safety products it is important to read the installation instruc- tions included with the product.

Do not attach the straps for the child seat to the horizontal adjustment bar, springs, rails or beams under the seat. Sharp edges can dam- age the straps.

Look in the installation instructions for the child seat for the correct fitting.

Location of child seats

You may place:

a child seat/booster cushion on the front passenger seat, provided the passenger airbag is not activated1.

one or more child seats/booster cushions in the rear seat.

Always fit child seats/booster cushions in the rear seat if the passenger airbag is activated. A child in the front passenger seat could suffer serious injury if the airbag deploys.

General

G 03 00 70

HomeLink is a programmable remote control which can control up to three different devices (e.g. garage door, alarm system, outdoor light- ing and indoor lighting etc.) and in doing so replace their remote controls. HomeLink is supplied built into the left-hand sun visor.

The HomeLink panel consists of three pro- grammable buttons and one indicator lamp.

NOTE

HomeLink is designed not to work if the car is locked from the outside.

Save the original remote controls for future programming (e.g. when switching to another car).

Delete the button programming when the car is to be sold.

Metallic sun visors should not be used in cars fitted with HomeLink . This may have an adverse effect on its function.

Operation

When HomeLink is fully programmed it can be used in place of the separate original remote controls.

Depress the programmed button to activate the garage door, alarm system etc. The indi- cator lamp illuminates for the time that the but- ton is kept depressed.

NOTE

If the ignition is not activated, HomeLink will work for 30 minutes after the driver's door has been opened.

The original remote controls can of course be used in parallel with HomeLink .

WARNING

If HomeLink is used to operate a garage door or gate, ensure that nobody is in the vicinity of the door or gate while it is in motion.

Do not use the HomeLink remote control for any garage door that does not have safety stop and safety reverse. The garage door must react immediately when it detects that something is preventing its movement, and stop directly and reverse. A garage door without these characteristics could cause personal injury. For further information - contact the supplier via the Internet: www.homelink.com.

Programming for the first time

The first step erases the memory in HomeLink and must not be carried out when only one individual button is being reprogram- med.

1. Depress the two outer buttons and do not release until the indicator lamp starts to flash after approx. 20 seconds. The flash- ing indicates that HomeLink is set in "learn mode" and is ready to be pro- grammed.

2. Position the original remote control 5-30 cm from HomeLink . Monitor the indi- cator lamp.

02 Instruments and controls

* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction. 81

The particular distance that is required between the original remote control and HomeLink depends on the programming of the device in question. Perhaps several attempts will be required at different dis- tances. Maintain each position for approx. 15 seconds before trying a new one.

3. Depress the button for the original remote control and the button to be programmed on HomeLink simultaneously. Do not release the buttons until the indicator lamp has changed over from slow to rapid flash- ing. The rapid flashing indicates successful programming.

4. Test the programming by depressing the programmed button on HomeLink and watching the indicator lamp:

Constant glow: The indicator lamp illu- minates with a constant glow when the button is kept depressed, this indicates that the programming is complete. The garage door, gate or similar should now be activated when the programmed HomeLink button is depressed.

Glow not constant: The indicator lamp flashes quickly for approx. 2 seconds and then changes over to a constant glow for approx. 3 seconds. This proc-

ess is repeated for approx. 20 seconds and indicates that the device has a "roll- ing code". The garage door, gate or sim- ilar is not activated when the pro- grammed HomeLink button is depressed. Continue the programming in accordance with the following.

5. Locate the "programming button1" on the receiver for the garage door for example, normally located close to the antenna's bracket on the receiver. If you have diffi- culty in finding the button - consult the supplier's manual, or contact the supplier via the Internet: www.homelink.com.

6. Depress and release the "programming button". The button flashes for approx. 30 seconds and the next step must be carried out within this period.

7. Depress the programmed button on HomeLink , while the "programming but- ton" is still flashing, keep it depressed for approx. 3 seconds and then release. Repeat the press/hold/release sequence up to 3 times to conclude the program- ming.

Programming individual buttons

To reprogram an individual button, proceed in accordance with the following:

1. Depress the required button on HomeLink and do not release until step 3 has been completed.

2. When the indicator lamp on HomeLink starts to flash, after approx. 20 seconds, position the original remote control 5-30 cm from HomeLink . Monitor the indi- cator lamp.

The particular distance that is required between the original remote control and HomeLink depends on the programming of the device in question. Perhaps several attempts will be required at different dis- tances. Maintain each position for approx. 15 seconds before trying a new one.

3. Depress the button on the original remote control. The indicator lamp will start to flash. When the flashing has changed over from a slow to a rapid flashing - release both buttons. The rapid flashing indicates successful programming.

4. Test the programming by depressing the programmed button on HomeLink and watching the indicator lamp:

86

Air conditioning

The climate control system cools or heats as well as dehumidifies the air in the passenger compartment. The car is equipped with either manual (AC) or electronic climate control (ECC, Electronic Climate Control).

NOTE

The air conditioning system can be switched off, but to ensure the best possible air in the passenger compartment and pre- vent the windows from misting, it should always be on.

Misting windows

Remove misting on the insides of the windows by first using the defroster function.

To reduce the risk of misting, clean the win- dows with a normal window cleaning agent.

Ice and snow

Remove ice and snow from the climate control air intake (the grille between the bonnet and the windscreen).

Fault tracing and repair

Volvo recommends that you only entrust fault tracing and repair of the climate control system to an authorised Volvo workshop.

Refrigerant

The air conditioning system contains R134a refrigerant. This refrigerant contains no chlo- rine, which means that it is harmless to the ozone layer. The system must only be charged with R134a refrigerant, see also page 276. Volvo recommends that an authorised Volvo workshop carries out this work.

Passenger compartment filter

All air entering the car's passenger compart- ment is only cleaned with one filter. This must be replaced at regular intervals. Follow the Volvo Service Programme for the recom- mended replacement intervals. If the car is used in a severely contaminated environment, it may be necessary to replace the filter more often.

NOTE

There are different types of passenger com- partment filter. Make sure that the correct filter is fitted.

Display

There is a display above the climate control panel. This displays climate control settings.

Personal preferences

You can set preferences for two climate control functions:

Fan speed in AUTO mode (applies only to cars with ECC).

Recirculation timer for passenger com- partment air.

For information about these settings, see page 77.

Lateral airflow

Vertical airflow

Aim the outer vents towards the side windows to remove misting from the front side windows.

During cold weather - Close the centre vents for optimum comfort and best demisting.

ECC

Actual temperature

The temperature you select corresponds to the physical experience with reference to factors such as air speed, humidity and solar radiation in and around the car.

The system includes a sun sensor which detects the side from which the sun is shining into the passenger compartment. This means that the temperature can differ between the right and left-hand air vents despite the con- trols being set for the same temperature on both sides.

Sensor location

The sun sensor is on the top side of the dashboard.

The temperature sensor for the passenger compartment is behind the climate control panel.

The outside temperature sensor is located on the door mirror.

The humidity sensor is located in the inte- rior rearview mirror.

NOTE

Do not cover or block the sensors with clothing or other objects.

Side windows and sunroof

To ensure that the air conditioning works sat- isfactorily, close all side windows and the roof.

Acceleration

The air conditioning system switches off tem- porarily at full throttle. You may briefly feel a temporary rise in temperature.

Condensation

In warm weather, condensation from the air conditioning may drip under the car. This is normal.

Functions

1. AUTO

The AUTO function automat- ically regulates climate con- trol and maintains the selected temperature. The AUTO function controls heat- ing, air conditioning, fan speed, recirculation, and air

distribution.

When the roof is open more air and heat/cold is directed down in the passenger compart- ment, and the output of the climate control is limited if it is not possible to compensate for the outside temperature

If you select one or more manual functions, the other functions continue to be controlled auto- matically. All manual settings are switched off when AUTO is switched on. The display shows AUTO CLIMATE.

2. Fan

Turn the knob to increase or decrease fan speed. If AUTO

is selected then fan speed is regulated automatically. The previously set fan speed is disengaged.

03 Climate control

Electronic climate control, ECC*

03

* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction. 89

NOTE

If the knob is turned anticlockwise and the fan indicator in the display goes out, the fan and the air conditioning are switched off. The display shows the fan symbol and OFF.

3. Recirculation

The function is selected to shut out bad air, exhaust gases etc. from the passen- ger compartment. The air in the passenger compartment is recirculated, i.e. no outside air is taken into the car when

this function is activated. If the air in the car recirculates for too long, there is a risk of mist- ing on the insides of the windows.

Timer

The timer function reduces the risk of icing, misting and bad air (if recirculation is selected). To activate/deactivate the function see page 77.

NOTE

When Defroster (4) is selected, recirculation is always deactivated.

3. Air quality system*

Same button as recirculation.

The air quality system con- sists of a multi-filter and a sensor. The filter separates gases and particles to reduce the levels of odours and pol-

lution in the passenger compartment. When the sensor detects polluted outside air, the air intakes are closed and the air in the passenger compartment is recirculated. A green light (A) illuminates in the button when the air quality sensor is active.

Activating the air quality sensor:

Press AUTO (1) to activate the air quality sensor (normal setting).

Or:

Switch between three functions by press- ing repeatedly the recirculation button.

Air quality sensor engaged the light (A) illuminates.

No recirculation engaged, provided it is not required for cooling in hot weather light not illuminated.

Recirculation engaged the light (M) illu- minates.

Keep the following in mind:

As a rule, the air quality sensor should always be engaged.

Recirculation is limited in cold weather to avoid misting.

The defroster functions for the front, side and rear windows can be used to demist the windows.

4. Defroster

Used to quickly remove mist- ing and ice from the wind- screen and side windows. Air flows to the windows at high fan speed. The light in the defroster button illuminates when the function is active.

The following also takes place when the defroster function is activated in order to pro- vide maximum dehumidification in the passen- ger compartment:

the air conditioning (AC) is automatically switched on (can be switched off with the AC button (6)

recirculation is automatically disengaged.

When the defroster is switched off the climate control returns to the previous settings.

To activate front seat heating:

Higher heat:

Press the button once both lights illumi- nate.

Lower heat:

Press the button once one light illumi- nates.

Heat off:

Press the button three times light not illu- minated.

9. Rear window and door mirror

defrosters

Heating is used to quickly remove misting and ice from the rear window and door mir- rors. Press the button once to start simultaneous rear win- dow and rearview mirror defrosting. The function is

active if one lamp is illuminated in the button.

The function is switched off manually or auto- matically. Switch off manually with one press

on the button. Automatic switching off discon- nects the rear window and door mirrors after 12 20 minutes depending on outside tem- perature.

During cold weather the defrosting* also con- tinues after 20 minutes in order to keep the rear window and door mirrors free of ice and mist. The intensity of the defrosting can be adapted to the outside temperature. This function must be switched off manually.

10. Temperature selector

The temperatures on the driver and passenger sides can be set independently.

Press the button once to acti- vate one side only. Press again to activate the other

side. Press the button a third time to activate both sides.

The active side is indicated by the button's light and in the display above the climate control panel.

When the car is started, the most recent setting is resumed.

Remote control key

The car is supplied with 2 remote control keys.

The remote control keys contain detachable metal key blades for mechanical locking/ unlocking of the driver's door and glovebox.

The key blades' unique code is available at authorised Volvo workshops, which are rec- ommended for ordering new key blades.

A maximum of 6 remote control keys/key blades can be programmed and used for one single car.

Turn signal indication during locking/ unlocking

When the car is unlocked using the remote control key or Keyless drive system, two short flashes of the direction indicators serve to indi- cate that unlocking was correctly performed.

For locking, the indication takes place with one long flash and only if all locks have been locked, after the doors and the boot lid have been closed.

Personal preferences in the menu system can be used to the deactivate indication via the direction indicators. There will then be no visual indication as to whether the lock status is cor- rect, see page 78.

Loss of a remote control key

If you lose a remote control key, take the car and the other remote control keys to a Volvo workshop - an authorised Volvo workshop is recommended. The code of the missing remote control key must be erased from the system as a theft prevention measure.

Immobiliser

The remote control keys are fitted with coded chips. The code must be accepted by the reader (receiver) in the ignition switch. The engine can only be started if the correct remote control key with the correct code is used.

General information on privacy locking

The privacy locking function is intended for when the car is left for service, with a hotel parking valet or similar. The glovebox is then locked and the boot lid lock is disconnected from the central locking - the cargo area cannot be opened with either the central locking but- tons on the doors or the remote control key.

This means that the remote control key without key blade can only be used to activate/deacti- vate the alarm, to open the doors and to drive the car.

The remote control key without key blade can then be handed over to the service or hotel staff - the loose key blade is retained by the car owner.

Keyless lock and ignition system

G 01 94 18

The keyless drive system allows the car to be unlocked, driven and locked without the need for a key. You simply need to have the remote control key with you in a pocket or a bag.

The system makes it easier and more conven- ient to open the car, for example with shopping bags in one hand and a child in the other. It saves you having to take out or look for the remote control key.

The two remote control keys incorporate the keyless drive function. You can order addi- tional remote controls. The keyless drive sys- tem can handle up to six remote controls.

Remote control key max. 1.5 m from the

car

In order to open a door or the boot lid, a remote control key must be no more than approx. 1.5 m from the car door handle or boot lid.

This means that the person who wishes to open a door must have the remote control key with him or her. It is not possible to open a door if the remote control key is on the other side of the car.

The grey area in the illustration indicates the range covered by the system's antennas.

If someone leaves the car and takes a keyless drive remote control key with them, a warning message appears on the information display and a reminder signal sounds. The warning message disappears when the remote control key is brought back to the car or when the igni- tion dial is turned to position 0. The warning is only issued if the ignition dial is in position I or II after someone has opened and closed a door.

The warning message and reminder signal dis- appear when the remote control key is brought back to the car after one of the following actions:

a door has been opened and closed

the ignition dial has been turned to position 0

the READ button has been pressed.

Never leave any remote control key in the

car

If a remote control key with keyless drive func- tion is left in the car, it is made passive when the car is locked. This prevents unauthorised entry.

If someone breaks into the car and finds the remote control key, it can be activated and used again. It is therefore important to handle all remote control keys with equal care.

Interference to remote control key

function

Electromagnetic fields and screening can inter- fere with the keyless drive system.

NOTE

Do not place/store the remote control key near a mobile phone or metal object - no closer than 10-15 cm.

If interference is experienced nonetheless, use the remote control key and key blade in the normal way, see page 120.

When the remote control key is within the range covered by the system's antennas, the doors and the boot lid are locked as follows:

Push in the lock button on one of the door handles.

All doors must be closed before the lock button is pushed in. Otherwise they will not lock.

When the car is locked, the lock buttons on the inside of the doors retract.

An LED on the inside of the door in question illuminates, see page 131.

NOTE

On cars with the keyless drive system and automatic transmission the gear selector must be moved to the P position and the ignition dial turned to the 0 position. Other- wise the car cannot be locked or alarmed.

Automatic locking

When the speed of the car exceeds 7 km/h the doors and boot lid are locked automatically.

When the function is activated and the doors have been locked they can be opened in two ways:

Pull one of the door handles twice

Press the upper section of the central lock- ing button and pull the door handle.

The function can be activated/deactivated by means of personal preferences, see page 78.

Deadlocks*

Deadlocks means that the lock buttons and door handles are mechanically disengaged, which prevents opening from the inside.

The deadlocks are activated with the remote control key and are set after a 10-25 second delay after the doors have been locked.

The car can only be unlocked from a deadlock state with the remote control key. The driver's door can also be unlocked with the detachable key blade.

WARNING

Do not allow anyone to remain in the car without first deactivating the deadlocks in order to avoid the risk of anyone being locked in.

Temporary deactivation

If someone is going to stay in the car but the doors must be locked from the outside, then the deadlocks function can be temporarily switched off.

Alarm system

When the alarm is armed, it continually moni- tors all alarm inputs.

The alarm is triggered if:

a door, the bonnet or boot lid is opened

a non-approved key is used in the ignition or if an attempt is made to force the lock

a movement is detected in the passenger compartment (if fitted with a movement detector)

the car is raised or towed away (if fitted with a tilt detector)

the battery's cable is disconnected

anyone tries to disconnect the siren.

NOTE

When the roof is closed, the alarm functions in the same way as when it is open, i.e. movement detected in the passenger com- partment triggers an alarm.

NOTE

One of the detectors for the alarm is located under the cup holder in the centre console. This detector is sensitive for metals.

Avoid storing coins, keys or similar metal objects in the centre console's cup holder as such objects could accidentally trigger the alarm.

Alarm indicator

G 02 02 27

A red LED on the top of the instrument panel indicates the alarm system's status:

LED not lit the alarm is not armed.

The LED flashes once every other second Alarm is armed.

The LED flashes rapidly after disarming the alarm and until key position II is activated the alarm has been triggered.

If there is a fault in the alarm system, a message appears on the display. At which point you should contact a workshop - an authorised Volvo workshop is recommended.

NOTE

Do not attempt to repair or modify alarm system components. All such attempts could affect the terms of insurance.

Arming the alarm

Press the remote control key lock button. A long flash from the car's direction indi- cators confirms that the alarm is armed and that the doors are locked.

IMPORTANT

The alarm is fully armed when the car's direction indicators have made one long flash and the LED on the instrument panel flashes once every other second.

Disarming the alarm

Press the remote control key unlock but- ton. Two short flashes from the car's direc- tion indicators confirm that the alarm is disarmed and that the doors are unlocked.

Automatic re-arming of the alarm

This function prevents the car being left with the alarm disarmed unintentionally.

If the car is unlocked with the remote control key (and the alarm is disarmed) but none of the doors or the boot lid is opened within 2 minutes, then the alarm is automatically re- armed. The car is relocked at the same time.

Deactivating a triggered alarm

Press the unlock button on the remote control key or insert the key in the ignition switch.

Confirmation is given by two short flashes from the direction indicators.

If the remote control key's batteries are dis- charged then the alarm can be deactivated by unlocking the driver's door manually, inserting the remote control key in the ignition switch and turning it to key position II.

Remote control key not working

G 01 94 20

If the alarm cannot be deactivated with the remote control key, e.g. if the key's battery is discharged - the car can be unlocked, dis- armed and the engine started as follows:

1. Open the driver's door with the detachable key blade. The alarm is triggered and the siren sounds.

2. On cars with the keyless drive system: First remove the knob by pressing in the catch (1) and pulling out (2).

3. Insert the remote control key in the ignition switch (3). The alarm is deactivated. The alarm light flashes rapidly until the remote control key is turned to key position II.

Alarm signals

When the alarm is triggered, the following hap- pens:

A siren sounds for 25 seconds or until the alarm is deactivated. The siren has its own battery and works independently of the car battery.

The direction indicators flash for 5 minutes or until the alarm is switched off.

Reduced alarm level

To avoid accidental triggering of the alarm - e.g. if a dog is left in a locked car or during transport on a car train or car ferry - the move- ment and tilt detectors should be temporarily deactivated.

The procedure is the same as with the tempo- rary disengaging of deadlocks - see page 132

STARTING AND DRIVING

06 Starting and driving

General

06

140

Economical driving

Driving economically means driving smoothly while thinking ahead and adjusting your driving style and speed to the prevailing conditions.

Drive in the highest gear possible, adapted to the current traffic situation and road - lower engine speeds result in lower fuel consumption.

Avoid driving with open windows.

Avoid sudden unnecessary acceleration and heavy braking.

Remove unnecessary items from the car - the greater the load the higher the fuel con- sumption.

Use engine braking to slow down, when it can take place without risk to other road users.

A roof load and ski box increase air resis- tance, leading to higher fuel consumption - remove the load carriers when not in use.

Do not run the engine to operating tem- perature at idling speed, but rather drive with a light load as soon as possible - a cold engine consumes more fuel than a warm one.

For more information and further advice, see the pages 13 and 278.

WARNING

Never switch off the engine while moving, such as downhill, this deactivates important systems such as the power steering and brake servo.

Driving in water

The car can be driven through water at a maxi- mum depth of 25 cm at a maximum speed of 10 km/h. Extra caution should be exercised when passing through flowing water.

IMPORTANT

Engine damage can occur if water enters the air filter.

In greater depths, water can enter the trans- mission. This reduces the lubricating ability of the oils and shortens the service life of the systems.

When driving in water, maintain a low speed and do not stop the car. When the water has been passed, depress the brake pedal lightly and check that full brake function is achieved. Water and mud for example can make the brake linings wet resulting in delayed brake function.

Clean the electric contacts of the electric engine block heater and trailer coupling after driving in water and mud.

IMPORTANT

Do not let the car stand with water over the sills for any long period of time. This could cause electrical malfunctions.

In the event of stalling in water, do not try to restart. Tow the car from the water.

Engine, gearbox and cooling system

Under special conditions, for example hard driving in hilly terrain and hot climate, there is a risk that the engine and drive system may overheat - in particular with a heavy load.

For supplementary information about over- heating when driving with a trailer - see page 170.

Remove any auxiliary lamps from in front of the grille when driving in hot climates.

In the event of a risk of overheating a built- in protection function in the gearbox is acti- vated which, amongst other things, illumi- nates the instrument panel's yellow infor- mation lamp and there is a text message displayed there regarding appropriate action - follow the recommendation given.

06 Starting and driving

General

06

141

If the temperature gauge for the engine's cooling system goes into the red zone - stop and let the engine idle for a few minutes.

If the car overheats, the air conditioning may be switched off temporarily.

Do not turn the engine off immediately you stop after a hard drive.

NOTE

It is normal for the engine's cooling fan to operate for a while after the engine has been switched off.

Diesel engine

When driving under heavy load in a hot climate, the engine cooling fan can be replaced with one of a greater capacity than the standard model1. Check with your nearest Volvo dealer regarding the options for your car.

Open boot lid

WARNING

Do not drive with the boot lid open. Toxic exhaust fumes can be drawn into the car through the cargo area.

Do not overload the battery

The electrical functions in the car load the bat- tery to varying degrees. Avoid having the remote control key in key position II when the engine is switched off. Instead use the I mode - which uses less power.

Note that the 12 volt outlet in the cargo area supplies power even when the remote control key has been removed from the ignition switch.

Also, be aware of different accessories that load the electrical system. Do not use functions which use a lot of power when the engine is switched off. Examples of such functions are:

ventilation fan

windscreen wiper

audio system (high volume)

headlamps.

If the battery voltage is low the information dis- play shows the text LOW BATTERY POWER

SAVE MODE. The energy-saving function then shuts down certain functions or reduces certain functions such as the ventilation fan and/or audio system.

In which case, charge the battery by star- ting the engine and then running it for at least 15 minutes - battery charging is more effective during driving than running the engine at idling speed while stationary.

Slippery driving conditions

Practise driving on slippery surfaces under controlled conditions to learn how the car reacts.

1 For certain engines.

Opening the fuel filler flap

Don not forget to switch off the fuel-driven heater before refuelling!

Open the fuel filler flap with the button on the lighting panel, see page 58. The engine must be switched off before the flap can be opened. The fuel flap is located on the rear right wing.

Closing

Push in the flap until you hear a click.

Opening from the cargo area

G 02 09 51

Manual opening of the fuel filler flap is easier when the roof is closed, and is used when it is not possible to open it from the passenger compartment.

1. Remove the cover over the lamp housing on the right-hand side of the cargo area.

2. Pull the wire hanging on the hook.

3. When the fuel filler flap has opened, refit the wire and cover.

IMPORTANT

Pull the wire gently - minimal force is required to disengage the hatch lock.

Fuel cap

1. Turn the fuel cap until an obvious resis- tance is felt.

2. Turn past the resistance until it comes to a stop.

3. Take out the cap.

4. Hang up the cap on the inside of the fuel filler flap.

NOTE

Put the petrol cap back on after refuelling. Turn until one or more clear clicks are heard.

Filling up with fuel

Do not overfill the tank but fill until the pump nozzle cuts out.

NOTE

Excess fuel in the tank can overflow in hot weather.

Fuel of a lower quality than that specified should not be used as engine power and fuel consumption could be negatively affected, for more information see the following section Fuel.

General information on fuel

WARNING

Always avoid inhaling fuel vapour and get- ting fuel splashes in the eyes.

In the event of fuel in the eyes, remove any contact lenses and rinse the eyes in plenty of water for at least 15 minutes and seek medical attention.

Never swallow fuel. Fuels such as petrol, bioethanol and mixtures of them and diesel are highly toxic and could cause permanent injury or be fatal if swallowed. Seek medical attention immediately if fuel has been swal- lowed.

WARNING

Fuel which spills on to the ground can be ignited by the exhaust fumes.

Switch off the fuel-driven heater before star- ting to refuel.

Never carry an activated mobile phone when refuelling. The ring signal could cause spark build-up and ignite petrol fumes, leading to fire and injury.

IMPORTANT

Mixing different types of fuel or the use of fuel not recommended invalidates Volvo's guarantees, and any associated service agreement. This applies to all engines. NOTE: It does not apply to cars with engines that are adapted to run on ethanol fuel (E85).

For information on fuel consumption, CO2

emissions and tank volume - see page 278.

Catalytic converter

The purpose of the catalytic converter is to purify exhaust gases. It is located in the flow of exhaust gases close to the engine so that it quickly reaches operating temperature. The catalytic converter consists of a monolith (ceramic or metal) with channels. The channel walls are lined with a thin layer of platinum/rho- dium/palladium. These metals act as catalysts, i.e. they participate in and accelerate a chem- ical reaction without being used up them- selves.

Lambda-sondTM oxygen sensor

The Lambda-sond is part of a control system intended to reduce emissions and improve fuel economy.

An oxygen sensor monitors the oxygen content of the exhaust gases leaving the engine. This value is fed into an electronic system that con-

tinuously controls the injectors. The ratio of fuel to air directed to the engine is continuously adjusted. These adjustments create optimal conditions for efficient combustion of harmful emissions (hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide and nitrous oxides) using the three-way cata- lytic converter.

Petrol

Petrol must meet the EN 228 standard. Most engines can be run with octane ratings of 91, 95 and 98 RON.

91 RON must not be used for 4-cylinder engines and should only be used in excep- tional cases with other engines.

95 RON can be used for normal driving.

98 RON is recommended for optimum per- formance and minimum fuel consumption.

When driving in temperatures above +38 C, fuel with the highest possible octane rating is recommended for optimum performance and fuel economy.

IMPORTANT

Always refuel with unleaded petrol so as not to damage the catalytic converter.

Do not use additives not recommended by Volvo.

06 Starting and driving

Refuelling

144

Diesel

Diesel must meet the EN 590 or JIS K2204 standards.

IMPORTANT

Only ever use fuel that fulfils the European diesel standard.

IMPORTANT

Diesel type fuels which must not be used: special additives, Marine Diesel Fuel, fuel oil, RME1 (Rape Methyl Ester) and vegetable oil. These fuels do not fulfil the requirements in accordance with Volvo recommendations and generate increased wear and engine damage that is not covered by the Volvo warranty.

Diesel engines are sensitive to contaminants, such as excessively high volumes of sulphur particles for example. Only use diesel fuel from well-known producers. Never use diesel of dubious quality.

At low temperatures (-40 C to -6 C), a paraffin precipitate may form in the diesel fuel, which may lead to ignition problems. Special diesel fuel designed for low temperatures around freezing point is available from the major oil

companies. This fuel is less viscous at low tem- peratures and reduces the risk of paraffin pre- cipitate.

IMPORTANT

Use special winter grade fuel during cold months.

The risk of condensation in the fuel tank is reduced if the tank is kept well filled. When refuelling, check that the area around the fuel filler pipe is clean. Avoid spilling fuel onto the paintwork. Wash off any spillage with deter- gent and water.

IMPORTANT

The sulphur content must be a maximum of 50 ppm.

Empty tank

The design of the fuel system in a diesel engine means that if the vehicle runs out of fuel, the tank may need to be vented in the workshop in order to restart the engine after fuelling.

Once the engine has stopped due to fuel star- vation, the fuel system needs a few moments to carry out a check. Do this before starting the

engine, once the fuel tank has been filled with diesel:

1. Insert the remote control key in the ignition switch and turn to key position II (see page 150).

2. Wait approx. 1 minute. 3. To start the engine: Depress the brake and/

or clutch pedal, and turn the remote control key to start position III.

Draining condensation from the fuel filter

The fuel filter separates condensation from the fuel. Condensation can disrupt engine opera- tion.

The fuel filter must be drained at the intervals specified in the Service and Warranty Booklet or if you suspect that the car has been filled with contaminated fuel.

IMPORTANT

Certain special additives remove the water separation in the fuel filter.

Diesel particle filter (DPF)

Diesel cars may be equipped with a particle fil- ter, which results in more efficient emission control. The particles in the exhaust gases are collected in the filter during normal driving. So-

1 Diesel fuel may contain a certain amount of RME, but further amounts must not be added.

06 Starting and driving

Refuelling

06

* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction. 145

called "regeneration" is started in order to burn away the particles and empty the filter. This requires the engine to have reached normal operating temperature.

Regeneration of the filter takes place automat- ically and normally takes 10-20 minutes. It may take a little longer at a low average speed. Fuel consumption may increase slightly during regeneration.

The rear window heating may be activated automatically to increase the load on the engine during regeneration without warning.

Regeneration in cold weather

If the car is frequently driven short distances in cold weather then the engine does not reach normal operating temperature. This means that regeneration of the diesel particle filter does not take place and the filter is not emptied.

When the filter has become approximately 80% full of particles, the yellow information symbol on the instrument panel illuminates, and the message SOOT FILTER

FULL SEE OWNER MANUAL is shown on the instrument panel display.

Start regeneration of the filter by driving the car until the engine reaches normal operating tem- perature, preferably on a main road or motor- way. The car should then be driven for approx- imately 20 minutes more.

NOTE

A smaller reduction of engine power may be noticed temporarily during regeneration.

When regeneration is complete the message is cleared automatically.

IMPORTANT

If the filter fills up it may be incapable of functioning. Then it can be difficult to start the engine and there is a risk that the filter will have to be replaced.

Use the parking heater* in cold weather so that the engine reaches normal operating tempera- ture more quickly.

06 Starting and driving

Alcolock*

06

146 * Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.

General information on the Alcolock

The function of the Alcolock1 is to prevent the car from being driven by individuals under the influence of alcohol. Before the engine can be started the driver must take a breath test that verifies that he/she is not under the influence of alcohol. Alcolock calibration takes place in accordance with each market's limit value in force for driving legally.

WARNING

The Alcolock is an aid and does not exempt the driver from responsibility. It is always the responsibility of the driver to be sober and to drive the car safely.

NOTE

After a completed period of driving, the engine can be restarted within 30 minutes without a new breath test.

To bear in mind

Before the breath test

In order to obtain correct function and as accu- rate a measurement result as possible:

Avoid eating or drinking approx. 5 minutes before the breath test.

Avoid excess windscreen washing - the alcohol in the washer fluid may result in an incorrect measurement result.

Change of driver

In order to ensure that a new breath test is car- ried out in the event of a change of driver - depress the switch (2) and the send button (3) simultaneously for approx. 3 seconds. At which point the car returns to start inhibition mode and a new approved breath test is required before starting the engine.

Calibration and service

The Alcolock must be checked and calibrated at a workshop2 every 12 months.

30 days before recalibration is necessary the display shows ALCOGUARD CALIBR.

REQUIRED. If calibration is not carried out within these 30 days then normal engine star- ting will be blocked - only starting with the

WARNING

Never remove the remote control key from the ignition switch while driving or when the car is being towed. The steering lock could otherwise be activated, making it impossi- ble to steer the car.

The remote control key must be in key posi- tion II when the car is being towed.

NOTE

The idling speed can be noticeably higher than normal for certain engine types during cold starting. This is in order that the emis- sions system can reach normal operating temperature as quickly as possible, which minimises exhaust emissions and protects the environment.

Starting the engine

IMPORTANT

If the engine fails to start after 3 attempts - wait for 3 minutes before making a further attempt. Starting capacity increases if the battery is allowed to recover.

Petrol

Turn the remote control key to key position III. If the engine does not start within 510 seconds, release the key and try again.

The 6-speed box is available in two versions - reverse gear position differs between them. Look at the actual gearshift pattern imprinted on the gear lever.

Depress the clutch pedal fully during each gear change.

Take your foot off the clutch pedal between gear changes.

WARNING

Get into the habit of always applying the parking brake when parking on a slope - an engaged gear is not sufficient to hold the car in all situations.

Reverse gear inhibitor

The reverse gear inhibitor hinders the possibil- ity of mistakenly attempting to engage reverse gear during normal forward travel.

Start from neutral position N and only engage reverse gear R when the car is sta- tionary.

NOTE

With the upper variant of the shifting pattern for 6-speed gearbox (see previous illustra- tion) - first press down the gear lever in the N position in order to engage reverse gear.

P Parking position

Select position P when you wish to start the engine or park the car.

IMPORTANT

The car must be stationary when position P is selected.

NOTE

The brake pedal must be depressed in order to be able to disengage the gear lever from the P position.

The gearbox is mechanically blocked when the P position is engaged. Always apply the parking brake when parking the car.

WARNING

Get into the habit of always applying the parking brake when parking on a slope - the automatic transmission's P position is not sufficient to hold the car in all situations.

R Reverse

The car must be stationary when position R is selected.

N Neutral

No gear is engaged and the engine can be started. Apply the parking brake when the car is stationary with the gear selector in posi- tion N.

NOTE

The brake pedal must be depressed in order to be able to disengage the gear lever from the N position if the car has been stationary for more than 3 seconds.

D Drive

D is the normal driving position. The car auto- matically shifts up and down depending on the level of acceleration and speed. The car must be stationary when the gear selector is moved to position D from position R.

Geartronic manual gear positions (+/-)

The driver can also change gear manually using the Geartronic automatic gearbox. The car engine-brakes when the accelerator pedal is released.

Manual gearshift mode is obtained by moving the lever to the side from position D to the end position at +/. The information display shifts the indication from D to one of the figures 1 6, which is equivalent to the gear that is engaged just then, see page 49.

Move the lever forwards towards + (plus) to change up a gear and release it, the lever returns to its rest position between + and .

or

Pull the lever back towards (minus) to change down a gear and release it.

The manual gearshift mode (+/) can be selected at any time while driving.

Geartronic automatically shifts down if the driver allows the speed to decrease lower than

06 Starting and driving

Automatic gearbox

a level suitable for the selected gear, in order to avoid jerking and stalling.

To return to automatic driving mode:

Move the lever to the side to the end posi- tion at D.

Kick-down

When the accelerator pedal is pressed all the way to the floor (beyond the position normally regarded as full acceleration) a lower gear is immediately engaged. This is known as kick- down.

If the accelerator is released from the kick- down position, the gearbox automatically changes up.

Kick-down is used when maximum accelera- tion is needed, such as for overtaking.

Safety function

To prevent overrevving the engine, the gearbox control program has a protective downshift inhibitor which prevents the kick-down func- tion.

Geartronic does not permit downshifting/kick- down which would result in an engine speed high enough to damage the engine. Nothing happens if the driver still tries to shift down in this way at high engine speed the original gear remains engaged.

When kick-down is activated the car can change one or more gears at a time depending on engine speed. The car changes up when the engine reaches its maximum speed in order to prevent damage to the engine.

Mechanical gear selector inhibitor

G 02 02 37

The gear selector can be moved forward and back freely between N and D. Other positions are locked with a latch that is released with the inhibitor button on the gear selector.

With the inhibitor button depressed the lever can be moved forwards or backwards between P, R, N and D.

Automatic gear selector inhibitor

Cars with an automatic gearbox have special safety systems:

Keylock

To remove the remote control key, the gear selector must be in the P position. The key is locked in all other positions.

Parking position (P)

Stationary car with engine running:

Hold your foot on the brake pedal when moving the gear selector to another posi- tion.

Electric gear inhibitor Shiftlock Parking

position (P position)

To be able to move the gear selector from the P position to other gear positions, the remote control key must be in position II and the brake pedal must be depressed.

Shiftlock Neutral (N position)

If the gear selector is in the N position and the car has been stationary for at least three sec- onds (irrespective of whether the engine is run- ning) then the gear selector is locked in the N position.

To be able to move the gear selector from the N position to another gear position, the brake pedal must be depressed and the remote con- trol key must be in position II.

Disengaging the gear selector inhibitor

G 01 82 63

In certain cases, it may be necessary to move the car when it is not driveable, for example if the battery is flat. Proceed as follows to move the car:

1. There is a small cover behind P-R-N-D on the gear selector panel. Open it at the rear edge.

2. Fully insert the key blade from the remote control key.

3. Hold the key blade down and at the same time move the gear lever out of the P posi- tion.

Cold start

When starting in low temperatures, the gear changes can sometimes feel hard. This is due to the gearbox oil's viscosity at low tempera- tures. To reduce engine emissions, the gear- box shifts up later than normal when the engine is started at low temperatures.

NOTE

Depending on the engine temperature when the engine is started, the idle speed after a cold start may be higher than normal for certain engine types.

06 Starting and driving

Brake system

06

157

Brake servo

If the car is rolling or is being towed with the engine turned off, the brake pedal must be depressed about 5 times harder than when the engine is running. If the brake pedal is depressed when the engine is started, you will feel the pedal drop. This is normal and due to the brake servo becoming active. This may be more noticeable if the car has Emergency Brake Assistance (EBA).

WARNING

The brake servo only works when the engine is running.

NOTE

If braking with the engine switched off, press the brake pedal sharply once, not repeatedly.

Brake circuits

This symbol illuminates if a brake circuit is not working.

If a fault should occur in one of the circuits, it is still possible to brake

the car. The brake pedal will travel further and may feel softer than normal. Harder pressure on the pedal is needed to produce the normal braking effect.

Dampness can affect braking

characteristics

Brake components become wet when the car is driven in heavy rain, through pools of water or when the car is washed. This may alter brake pad friction characteristics so that there is a delay before braking effect is noticed.

Press the brake pedal lightly from time to time if driving for long stretches in rain or slushy snow, as well as after setting off in very damp or cold weather. This warms up the brake pads and dries off any water. This precaution is also recommended before parking the car for a long period in such weather conditions.

If the brakes are used heavily

When driving in the Alps or other roads with similar characteristics, the car's brakes are heavily loaded even if the brake pedal is not being depressed especially hard.

Because speed is often low, the brakes are not cooled as effectively as when driving on flat roads at higher speed.

So as not to overload the brakes, shift down when driving downhill instead of using the foot brake. Use the same gear driving downhill as you would use driving uphill. This uses engine braking more efficiently so the foot brake is only required for brief periods.

Bear in mind that driving with a trailer puts an additional load on the car's brakes.

Anti-lock braking system - ABS

The anti-lock braking system (ABS) prevents the wheels from locking up during braking.

This means the ability to steer is maintained and it is easier to swerve to avoid a hazard for example.

After the engine has been started, the ABS will perform a brief self-test at a speed of about 20 km/h. This can be felt and heard as pulses in the brake pedal.

To get the most out of the ABS:

1. Depress the brake pedal with full force. Pulses will be felt.

2. Steer the car in the direction of travel. Do not release the pressure on the pedal.

Practice braking with the ABS system in a traf- fic-free area and in different weather condi- tions.

06 Starting and driving

Brake system

06

158

Emergency Brake Assistance EBA

For sudden braking, EBA (Emergency Brake Assist) provides full-strength braking instanta- neously. The EBA function senses when heavy braking is underway by registering how quickly the brake pedal is depressed.

Continue braking without easing off on the brake pedal. The function disengages when the pressure on the brake pedal eases.

This function is always active. It cannot be dis- engaged.

WARNING

If the BRAKE and ABS warning symbols illu- minate at the same time, there may be a fault in the brake system. If the level in the brake fluid reservoir is normal at this stage, drive carefully to the nearest workshop and have the brake system checked - an author- ised Volvo workshop is recommended.

If the brake fluid is under the MIN level in the brake fluid reservoir, do not drive further before topping up the brake fluid.

The reason for the loss of brake fluid must be investigated.

NOTE

When EBA is activated the brake pedal low- ers slightly more than usual, depress (hold) the brake pedal as long as necessary. If the brake pedal is released then all braking ceases.

Emergency brake lights and automatic

hazard warning flashers

Emergency brake lights are activated to alert vehicles behind about sudden braking. The function means that the brake light flashes instead of - as in normal braking - shining with a constant glow.

Emergency brake lights are activated at speeds above 50 km/h if the ABS system is working and/or in the event of sudden braking. After the car's speed has been slowed below 10 km/h the brake light returns from flashing to the normal constant glow - while at the same time the hazard warning flashers are activated, and they flash until the driver changes engine speed with the accelerator pedal or they are deactivated with their button, see page 69.

* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction. 159

General

The stability and traction control system, DSTC (Dynamic Stability and Traction Control) helps the driver to avoid skidding and improves the car's traction.

A pulsing sound may be noticed during braking or acceleration when the system is in action. The car may accelerate slower than expected when the accelerator pedal is depressed.

Active Yaw Control

The function limits the driving and brake force of the wheels individually in order to stabilise the car.

Spin Control

The function prevents the driving wheels from spinning against the road surface during accel- eration.

Traction control system

The function is active at low speed and trans- fers power from the driving wheel that is spin- ning to the one that is not.

Reduced operation

Controls and information display.

Thumbwheel1

RESET button1

The stability system is activated automatically each time the car is started.

System operation during skidding and accel- eration can be partially deactivated. Operation during skidding is then delayed and so allows more skidding which provides greater freedom for dynamic driving. Traction in deep snow or sand is improved at the same time as acceler- ation is no longer limited.

Operation

1. Turn the thumbwheel until the DSTC menu appears.

DSTC ON means that the system function is unchanged.

DSTC SPIN CONTROL OFF means that system operation is reduced.

2. Press and hold the RESET button until the DSTC menu is changed.

The system remains reduced until the driver reactivates it or until the engine is switched off - after the engine is started the next time DSTC is back in its normal mode again.

WARNING

Suppressing system function may alter the driving characteristics of the car.

NOTE

DSTC ON is shown for several seconds on the display each time the engine is started.

Park Assist*

06

* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction. 161

General information on parking assistance

Parking assistance front and rear.

Parking assistance is used as an aid to parking. A signal indicates the distance to a detected obstacle.

WARNING

Parking assistance does not relinquish the driver's own responsibility during parking. The sensors have blind spots where obsta- cles cannot be detected. Be aware of chil- dren or animals near the car.

Variants

Parking assistance is available in two variants:

Rear only.

Both front and rear.

Function

The frequency of the signal increases the shorter the distance to an obstacle, in front of or behind the car. If the volume of another audio source from the audio system is high, then this is automatically lowered.

The tone becomes constant at a distance of about 30 cm. If there are obstacles within this distance both behind and in front of the car, the signal alternates between left and right-hand speakers.

Rear parking assistance only

The system is automatically engaged when the car is started.

Rear parking assistance is activated when reverse gear is engaged and the message Park

Assist active EXIT to deactivate is shown on the audio system's display.

If the system is switched off, the display shows Park Assist deactivated ENTER to

activate as soon as reverse gear is engaged. To change the settings, see page 78.

The distance covered behind the car is about 1.5 metres. The signal comes from the rear loudspeakers.

Limitations

The system must be deactivated when revers- ing with a trailer, or bike carrier on the towbar or similar. Otherwise the trailer or bike carrier would trigger the sensors.

NOTE

Rear parking assistance is deactivated automatically when towing a trailer if a Volvo genuine trailer cable is used.

Parking assistance both front and rear

illuminated. If parking assistance is switched off with the button, the lamp goes out.

Front

Front parking assistance is active at speeds below 15 km/h. The system is deactivated at higher speeds. When the speed is below 10 km/h the system is reactivated.

The distance covered to the front of the car is about 0.8 metres. The signal for obstacles in front comes from the front loudspeakers.

Limitations

Front parking assistance cannot be combined with extra lights because the sensors are affec- ted by the extra lights.

Rear

Rear parking assistance is activated when reverse gear is engaged.

The distance covered to the rear of the car is about 1.5 metres. The signal for obstacles behind comes from the rear loudspeakers.

Limitations

See the previous section Rear parking assis- tance only.

Fault indicator

If the information symbol illumi- nates with constant glow and the display shows PARK ASSIST

SERVICE REQUIRED then park- ing assistance is disengaged. For

attention, contact a workshop - an authorised Volvo workshop is recommended.

IMPORTANT

In certain conditions the parking assistance system may produce incorrect warning sig- nals that are caused by external sound sources that emit the same ultrasonic fre- quencies that the system works with.

Examples of such sources include horns, wet tyres on asphalt, pneumatic brakes and exhaust noises from motorcycles etc.

Cleaning the sensors

Parking assistance sensors.

The sensors must be cleaned regularly to ensure that they work properly. Clean them with water and car shampoo.

NOTE

Dirt, ice and snow covering the sensors may cause incorrect warning signals.

Rearview mirror with BLIS system.

BLIS camera

Indicator lamp

BLIS symbol

WARNING

The system is a supplement to, not a replacement for, a safe driving style and use of the rearview mirrors. It can never replace the driver's attention and responsibility. The responsibility for changing lanes safely always rests with the driver.

BLIS is an information system that under cer- tain conditions can help to draw the driver's attention to vehicles moving in the same direc- tion in the so-called "blind spot".

The system is designed to work most effec- tively when driving in dense traffic on multi-lane highways.

BLIS is based on camera technology. The cam- eras (1) are located under the door mirrors.

When a camera has detected a vehicle inside the blind spot zone the indicator lamp (2) illu- minates with a constant glow.

NOTE

The lamp illuminates on the side of the car where the system has detected the vehicle. If the car is overtaken on both sides at the same time then both lamps illuminate.

BLIS advises the driver with a message if a fault arises in the system. If for example the sys- tem's cameras are obscured then the BLIS indicator lamp flashes and a message is shown in the information display. In such cases, check and clean the lenses. If necessary, the system can be switched off temporarily by pressing the BLIS button see page 164.

Blind spots

A = approx. 3.0 m, B = approx. 9.5 m.

When BLIS operates

The system operates when the car is driven at a speed above 10 km/h.

Overtaking

The system is designed to react if you overtake another vehicle at a speed of up to 10 km/h faster than the other vehicle.

The system is designed to react if you are over- taken by a vehicle travelling up to 70 km/h faster than your vehicle.

06 Starting and driving

BLIS* Blind Spot Information System

06

164 * Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.

WARNING

BLIS does not work in sharp bends.

BLIS does not work when the car is revers- ing.

A wide trailer coupled to the car can conceal other vehicles in adjacent lanes. It can pre- vent the vehicle in the screened area from being detected by BLIS.

Daylight and darkness

In daylight the system reacts to the shape of the surrounding vehicles. The system is designed to detect motor vehicles such as cars, trucks, buses and motorcycles.

In darkness the system reacts to the head- lamps of surrounding vehicles. Vehicles with headlamps that are switched off are not detected by the system. This means for exam- ple that the system does not react to a trailer without headlamps which is towed behind a car or truck.

WARNING

The system does not react to cyclists or moped riders.

The BLIS cameras have limitations similar to those of the human eye, i.e. they do not see as well in e.g. heavy snowfall, strong oncoming light or thick fog.

Activate/deactivate

Start assistance

Use a donor battery if the battery is discharged and the engine does not start. Do not tow the car to bump start the engine, see page 169.

IMPORTANT

Bump starting the car can damage the cat- alytic converter.

Towing

Find out the statutory maximum speed limit for towing before towing begins.

1. Turn the remote control key to position II and unlock the steering lock so that the car can be steered, see page 151.

2. The key must remain in the ignition switch while the car is being towed.

3. Keep the towline taut when the towing vehicle reduces speed by holding your foot gently pressed on the brake pedal - thereby avoiding unnecessary jerking.

4. Be prepared to brake to stop.

WARNING

The steering lock must be unlocked before towing - the lock stays in the position it was in when the voltage was disconnected.

The remote control key must be in key position II - in position I all airbags are deactivated.

Never remove the key from the ignition switch when the car is being towed.

NOTE

If the car is de-energised then the steering lock must be unlocked using a donor bat- tery before towing can be started.

WARNING

The brake servo and power steering do not work when the engine is switched off. The brake pedal must be pressed about five times harder than normal, and the steering will be considerably heavier than normal.

Manual gearbox

Prior to towing:

Move gear lever into neutral and release the parking brake.

Automatic gearbox Geartronic

Prior to towing:

Towing eye

The towing eye is screwed into a threaded socket behind a cover on the right-hand side of the bumper, front or rear.

Fitting the towing eye

Take out the towing eye (1) that is stored in the puncture repair kit's packaging* behind the ski hatch or together with the spare wheel.

The cover for the towing eye's attachment point is available in two variants which must be opened in different ways:

Open the variant with a recess using a coin or similar inserted in the recess, turning it outwards. Then turn out the cover completely and remove it.

The second variant has a marking along one side or in a corner: Press the mark- ing with a finger and fold out the oppo- site side/corner at the same time using a coin or similar - the cover turns around its axis and can then be removed.

Screw the towing eye right in up to its flange. Turn in the towing eye firmly e.g. using the wheel wrench.

After use, unscrew the towing eye and return it to its place.

Finish by refitting the cover onto the bumper.

IMPORTANT

The towing eye is only designed for towing on roads - not for pulling the car unstuck or out of a ditch. Call a recovery service for recovery assistance.

Starting with a donor battery

If the battery is flat then the car can be started with current from another battery.

When jump starting the car, the following steps are recommended to avoid short circuits or other damage:

1. Turn the remote control key to key position 0.

2. Check that the donor battery has a voltage of 12 V.

3. If the donor battery is installed in another car - switch off the donor car's engine and make sure that the two cars do not touch each other.

4. Connect one of the red jump lead's clamps to the donor battery's positive terminal (1).

IMPORTANT

Connect the start cable carefully to avoid short circuits with other components in the engine compartment.

5. Connect the red jump lead's other clamp onto the car's positive terminal (2).

6. Connect one of the black jump lead's clamps to the donor battery's negative ter- minal (3).

7. Fit the other clamp to a grounding point, such as by the left-hand spring strut (4).

8. Check that the jump lead clamps are affixed securely so that there are no sparks during the starting procedure.

9. Start the engine of the "donor car" and allow it to run a few minutes at a speed slightly higher than idle approx. 1500 rpm.

10. Start the engine in the car with the dis- charged battery.

IMPORTANT

Do not touch the crocodile clips during the start procedure. There is a risk of sparks forming.

11. Remove the jump leads in reverse order - first the black and then the red. > Make sure that none of the black jump

lead's clamps comes into contact with the battery's positive terminal or the clamp connected to the red jump lead.

WARNING

The battery can generate oxyhydrogen gas, which is highly explosive. A spark can be formed if a jump lead is con- nected incorrectly, and this can be enough for the battery to explode.

The battery contains sulphuric acid, which can cause serious burns.

If sulphuric acid comes into contact with eyes, skin or clothing, flush with large quantities of water. If acid splashes into the eyes - seek medical attention immediately.

For more information on the car's battery - see page 217.

06 Starting and driving

Driving with a trailer

06

170

General

Payload depends on the car's kerb weight. The total of the weight of the passengers and all accessories, e.g. towbar, reduces the car's payload by a corresponding weight. For more detailed information on weights, see page 271.

If the towing bracket is fitted by an authorised Volvo workshop, then the car is delivered with the necessary equipment for driving with a trailer.

The car's towing bracket must be of an approved type.

If the towbar is retrofitted, check with a Volvo dealer that the car is fully equipped for driving with a trailer.

Distribute the load on the trailer so that the weight on the towing bracket follows the specified maximum towball load.

Increase the tyre pressure to the recom- mended pressure for a full load. For tyre pressure decal location, see page 186.

Clean the towing bracket regularly and grease the towball1.

The engine is loaded more heavily than usual when driving with a trailer.

Do not tow a heavy trailer when the car is brand new. Please wait until it has been driven at least 1000 km.

The brakes are loaded much more than usual on long and steep downhill slopes. Downshift to a lower gear and adjust your speed.

Avoid driving with a trailer on inclines of more than 12%.

For safety reasons, the maximum permit- ted speed for the car when coupled with a trailer should not be exceeded. Follow the regulations in force for the permitted speeds and weights.

Maintain a low speed when driving with a trailer up long, steep ascents.

Trailer weights

For information on Volvo's permitted trailer weights, see page 271.

NOTE

The stated maximum permitted trailer weights are those permitted by Volvo. National vehicle regulations can further limit trailer weights and speeds. Towbars can be certified for higher towing weights than the car can actually tow.

WARNING

Follow the stated recommendations for trailer weights. Otherwise, the car and trailer may be difficult to control in the event of sudden movement and braking.

Manual gearbox

Overheating

When driving with a trailer in hilly terrain in a hot climate there may be a risk of overheating.

Do not run the engine at higher revolutions than 4500 rpm (diesel engines: 3500 rpm) - otherwise the oil temperature may become too high.

Diesel engine 5-cyl

If an engine starts to run too hot, the instru- ment panel will display a text message which recommends switching to a lower gear - follow the recommendation given.

In the event of a risk of overheating the optimal speed for the engine is 2300-3000 rpm for optimum circulation of the coolant.

1 Do not lubricate the towball if using a stabiliser hitch.

178

General

Payload depends on the car's kerb weight. The total of the weight of the passengers and all accessories reduces the car's payload by a corresponding weight. For more detailed infor- mation on weights, see page 271.

WARNING

The car's driving characteristics change depending on how heavily it is loaded and how the load is distributed.

Loading the cargo area

Stop the engine and apply the parking brake when loading or unloading long objects. The gear lever or gear selector can be knocked out of position by long loads, which could set the car in motion.

Place the load firmly against the backrest in front.

Put wide loads in the centre.

Heavy objects should be placed as low as possible.

Cover sharp edges with something soft to avoid damaging the upholstery.

Secure all loads to the load retaining eye- lets with straps or web lashings.

WARNING

A loose object weighing 20 kg can, in a frontal collision at a speed of 50 km/h, carry the impact of an item weighing 1000 kg.

WARNING

Never load cargo above the backrest.

The protection provided by the inflatable curtain may be compromised or eliminated by high loads.

Always secure the load. During heavy brak- ing the load may otherwise shift, causing injury to the car's occupants.

WHEELS AND TYRES

07 Wheels and tyres

General

07

182

Driving characteristics and tyres

The tyres greatly affect the car's driving cha- racteristics. The type of tyre, dimensions, tyre pressure and speed rating are important for how the car performs.

When changing tyres, ensure that tyres of the same type and dimensions, and preferably also the same make, are fitted to all four wheels. Follow the recommended tyre pressures specified on the tyre pressure label, see page 186.

Designation of dimensions

The dimensions are stated on all car tyres. Example: 205/55R16 91 W.

205 Tyre width (mm)

55 Ratio between tyre wall height and tyre width (%)

R Radial ply

16 Rim diameter in inches (")

91 Tyre load index (in this case 615 kg)

W Speed rating for maximum permitted speed (in this case 270 km/h).

Speed ratings

The car is approved as a whole, which means that dimensions and speed ratings must not differ from those specified on the vehicle reg- istration document. The only exception to these conditions is winter tyres (both those with metal studs and those without). If such a tyre is chosen, the car must not be driven faster than the speed rating of the tyre (for example, class Q can be driven at a maximum of 160 km/h).

Remember that traffic regulations determine how fast a car can be driven, not the speed class of the tyres.

Note! Maximum permitted speeds indicated.

Q 160 km/h (used only on winter tyres)

T 190 km/h

H 210 km/h

V 240 km/h

W 270 km/h

Y 300 km/h

New tyres

Tyres are perishable. After a few years they begin to harden at the same time as the friction capacity/characteristics gradually deteriorate. For this reason, aim to get as fresh tyres as possible when you replace them. This is espe- cially important with regard to winter tyres. The last four digits in the sequence mean the week and year of manufacture. This is the tyre's DOT marking (Department of Transportation), and this is stated with four digits, for example 1510. The tyre in the illustration was manufac- tured in week 15 of 2010.

Tyre age

All tyres older than six years should be checked by an expert even if they seem undamaged.

07 Wheels and tyres

General

07

183

The reason for this is that tyres age and decom- pose, even if they are hardly ever or never used. The function can therefore be affected due to the tyre's constituent materials being broken down. In such a case the tyre should then not be used. This also applies to spare tyres, winter tyres and tyres saved for future use. Examples of external signs which indicate that the tyre is unsuitable for use are cracks or discoloration.

The age of the tyre can be determined by the DOT marking, see previous illustration.

More even wear and maintenance

The correct tyre pressure results in more even wear, see page 186. Driving style, tyre pres- sure, climate and road condition affect how quickly your tyres age and wear. To avoid dif- ferences in tread depth and to prevent wear patterns arising, the front and rear wheels can be switched with each other. A suitable dis- tance for the first change is approx. 5000 km and then at 10 000 km intervals. Volvo recom- mends that you contact an authorised Volvo workshop for checking if you are uncertain about tread depth. If significant differences in wear (>1 mm difference in tread depth) between tyres have already occurred, the least worn tyres must always be placed on the rear. Understeer is normally easier to correct than oversteer, and leads to the car continuing for-

wards in a straight line rather than having the rear end skidding to one side, resulting in pos- sible complete loss of control over the car. This is why it is important for the rear wheels never to lose grip before the front wheels.

Wheels should be stored lying down or hanging up, and not standing up.

Tyres with tread wear indicators

G 02 03 23

Tread wear indicators.

Tread wear indicators are narrow treadless bands across the width of the tread. On the side of the tyre are the letters TWI (Tread Wear Indicator). When the tyre's tread depth is down to 1.6 mm, the tread depth will be level in height with the tread wear indicators. Change to new tyres as soon as possible. Remember that

tyres with little tread depth provide very poor grip in rain and snow.

Winter tyres

Volvo recommends winter tyres with specific winter tyre dimensions. Tyre dimensions are dependent on engine variant. When driving on winter tyres, they must be fitted to all four wheels.

NOTE

Volvo recommends that you consult a Volvo dealer about which wheel rim and tyre types are most suitable.

Studded tyres

Studded winter tyres should be run in gently for 500-1000 km, so that the studs settle properly into the tyres. This gives the tyre, and espe- cially the studs, a longer service life.

NOTE

The legal provisions for the use of studded tyres vary from country to country.

Tread depth

Road conditions with ice, slush and low tem- peratures place considerably higher demands on tyres than summer conditions. It is therefore

07 Wheels and tyres

General

07

184

recommended not to drive on winter tyres that have a tread depth of less than 4 mm.

Snow chains

Snow chains may only be used on the front wheels. This also applies to all-wheel-drive cars.

Never drive faster than 50 km/h with snow chains. Avoid driving on bare ground as this wears out both the snow chains and tyres.

WARNING

Use Volvo genuine snow chains or equiva- lent chains designed for the car model, and tyre and rim dimensions. In the event of uncertainty Volvo recommends that you consult an authorised Volvo workshop. The wrong snow chains may cause serious damage to your car and lead to an accident.

Rims and wheel nuts

Only use wheel rims that are tested and approved by Volvo and which are included in the Volvo genuine accessories range.

Standard wheel nuts.

Bulge acorn wheel nuts.

There are two types of wheel nut, depending on whether the wheel rims are made of steel or aluminium.

1. Tighten the wheel nuts of model (1) to 110 Nm. Tighten the wheel nuts of model (2) to 130 Nm.

2. Check the torque with a torque wrench.

IMPORTANT

The wheel nuts (1) should be tightened to 110 Nm and (2) to 130 Nm respectively. Overtightening can damage the nuts and the bolts.

Steel rims standard wheel nuts (1)

Steel rims are normally mounted with the standard wheel nuts, but the bulge acorn vari- ety may also be used.

WARNING

Never use standard nuts for aluminium rims. The wheel could come loose.

Aluminium rims bulge acorn wheel nuts

(2)

Only use the bulge acorn variety of nuts with aluminium rims.

NOTE

These nuts may also be used with steel rims.

Locking wheel nuts

Locking wheel nuts can be used on both alu- minium and steel rims. If steel rims with locking wheel nuts are used in combination with wheel covers, the locking wheel nut should be moun-

07 Wheels and tyres

General

07

* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction. 185

ted on the bolt nearest the air valve. Otherwise the wheel cover cannot be fitted to the rim.

NOTE

Tighten the lockable wheel nuts to 110 Nm.

Spare wheel Temporary Spare*

The spare wheel (Temporary spare) is only intended for use temporarily and must be replaced by an ordinary wheel as soon as pos- sible. The car's handling may be altered by the use of the spare wheel. The spare wheel is smaller than the normal wheel. The car's ground clearance is affected accordingly. Pay attention to high kerbs and do not machine wash the car. If the spare wheel is fitted on the front axle, you cannot use snow chains at the same time. On all-wheel drive cars the drive on the rear axle can be disconnected. The spare wheel must not be repaired. The correct tyre pressure for the spare wheel is stated in the tyre pressure table, see page 280.

IMPORTANT

Never drive faster than 80 km/h with a spare wheel on the car.

IMPORTANT

The car must never be driven fitted with more than one "Temporary Spare" wheel.

Summer and winter wheels

G 02 03 25

The arrow shows the tyre's direction of rotation.

When summer and winter wheels are changed, see page 190, the wheels should be marked with which side of the car they were mounted on, for example L for left and R for right. Tyres with a tread pattern which are designed to only turn in one direction have the direction of rota- tion marked with an arrow.

The tyre must always rotate in the same direc- tion throughout its lifespan. Tyres should only

be switched between front and rear positions, never between left and right-hand sides, or vice versa.

If the tyre is mounted incorrectly, the car's braking characteristics and capacity to force rain, snow and slush out of the way are adversely affected.

Tyres with the greatest tread depth should always be fitted to the rear of the car (to decrease the risk of skidding).

Volvo recommends that you contact an author- ised Volvo workshop for checking if you are uncertain about tread depth.

07 Wheels and tyres

Tyre pressure

07

186

Recommended tyre pressure

G 02 09 55

The tyre pressure label on the driver's side door pillar shows which pressures the tyres should have at different load and speed conditions.

Tyre pressure for the car's recommended tyre size

ECO pressure1

Spare tyre pressure (Temporary Spare).

Checking the tyre pressure

Check the tyre pressure regularly.

NOTE

Tyre pressure decreases over time, this is a natural phenomenon. Tyre pressure also varies depending on ambient temperature.

Even after several kilometres of driving, the tyres warm up and the pressure increases. So air must not be released if the pressure is checked when the tyres are warm. While the pressure must be increased if it is too low.

Inadequately inflated tyres increase fuel con- sumption, shorten tyre lifespan and impair the car's roadholding. Driving on tyres with tyre pressure that is too low can also result in the tyres overheating and disintegrating.

For information on the correct tyre pressure, refer to the tyre pressure table. The specified tyre pressures refer to "cold tyres". ("Cold tyres" means the tyres are the same tempera- ture as the ambient temperature.)

Fuel economy, ECO pressure

At speeds under 160 km/h the general tyre pressure for maximum load is recommended in order to obtain optimum fuel economy.

Tyre pressure affects travelling comfort, road noise and steering characteristics.

1 ECO pressure results in improved fuel economy.

192 * Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.

Emergency puncture repair, general information

The emergency puncture repair kit is used to seal a puncture as well as to check and adjust the tyre pressure. It consists of a compressor and a bottle with sealing fluid. The kit works as a temporary repair. The sealing fluid bottle must be replaced before its expiration date and after use.

The sealing fluid effectively seals tyres punc- tured in the tread.

NOTE

The emergency puncture repair kit is only intended for sealing tyres with a puncture in the tread.

The emergency puncture repair kit has limited capacity to seal tyres which have punctures in the wall. Do not seal tyres with the emergency puncture repair kit if they have larger slits, cracks or similar damage.

12V sockets for the compressor are located by the centre console in the front, by the rear seat and in the cargo area*. Choose the electrical socket that is nearest the punctured tyre.

WARNING

You should not drive faster than 80 km/h after the emergency tyre repair kit has been used. Volvo recommends that you visit an authorised Volvo workshop for inspection of the sealed tyre (maximum driving distance is 200 km). The staff there can determine whether or not the tyre can be repaired or if it needs to be replaced.

Wash the car as soon as it becomes dirty. Use car shampoo. Dirt and road salt can lead to corrosion.

IMPORTANT

Avoid rinsing the car with the roof lowered in order to avoid water entering the passen- ger compartment.

Do not park the car in direct sunlight. Washing a car with hot paintwork can cause permanent paintwork damage. Wash the car in a car wash with waste water separator.

Hose down the underbody thoroughly.

Wash using a sponge, car shampoo and plenty of lukewarm water.

If the dirt is difficult to dislodge, wash the car using a cold degreasing agent.

Dry the car using a clean, soft chamois or a water scraper.

WARNING

Always have the engine cleaned by a work- shop. There is a risk of fire if the engine is hot.

IMPORTANT

Dirty headlamps have impaired functional- ity. Clean them regularly, when refuelling for example.

NOTE

Outside lighting such as headlamps, fog lamps and rear lamps may temporarily have condensation on the inside of the lens. This is a natural phenomenon, all outside lighting is designed to withstand this. Condensation is normally vented out of the lamp when it has been switched on for a time.

Cleaning the wiper blades

Asphalt, dust and salt residue on wiper blades, as well as insects, ice etc. on the windscreen, impair the service life of wiper blades.

NOTE

Wash the wiper blades and windscreen reg- ularly with lukewarm soap solution or car shampoo.

Do not use any strong solvents.

Removing bird droppings

Wash away bird droppings from the paintwork as soon as possible. Bird droppings contain chemicals that affect and discolour paintwork

very quickly. This discoloration can only be removed by a specialist.

Chromed wheels

IMPORTANT

Rim cleaning agents can cause stains on chrome-plated wheels. Wash using a sponge, car shampoo and plenty of luke- warm water.

Automatic car washes

An automatic car wash is a simple and quick way of washing the car, but it can never replace a proper handwashing. The brushes of an auto- matic car wash cannot reach everywhere.

IMPORTANT

The roof must be closed for automatic car washes.

The antenna by the boot lid should be unscrewed before automatic car washing.

IMPORTANT

Washing by hand is gentler to the paintwork than an automatic car wash. Paintwork is also more sensitive when it is new. For this reason, handwashing is recommended dur- ing the first few months with a new car.

High-pressure washing

When using high-pressure washing, use sweeping movements and make sure that the nozzle does not come closer than 30 cm to the surface of the car (the distance applies to all exterior parts).

IMPORTANT

Rinse the entire car to remove loose dirt. When using a pressure washer: Make sure that the nozzle of the pressure washer is not closer than 30 cm to the bodywork. Do not spray directly onto the locks.

Testing the brakes

WARNING

Always test the brakes after washing the car, including the parking brake, to ensure that moisture and corrosion do not attack the brake linings and reduce braking per- formance.

Lightly depress the brake pedal now and then when driving long distances in rain or slush. This heats and dries the brake pads. Do the same thing after starting in very damp or cold weather.

Exterior plastic, rubber and trim

components

A special cleaning agent available from Volvo dealers is recommended for the cleaning and care of coloured plastic parts, rubber and trim components (such as glossy trim mouldings). When using such a cleaning agent the instruc- tions must be followed carefully.

IMPORTANT

Avoid waxing and polishing on plastic and rubber.

When using degreasant on plastic and rub- ber, only rub with light pressure if it is nec- essary. Use a soft washing sponge.

Polishing glossy trim mouldings could wear away or damage the glossy surface.

Polishing agent that contains abrasive must not be used.

Electrically operated roof

If the roof is wet when opened then water will run into the passenger compartment. For this reason, wait until the water has run off before opening the roof.

Hatch cover

The hatch cover, see page 103 is sensitive to water and should therefore be dried with a cloth if it becomes wet. Clean with a slightly dampened rag.

Polishing and waxing

Polish and wax the car if the paintwork is dull or to give the paintwork extra protection.

The car does not need to be polished until it is at least one year old. However, the car can be waxed before this time. Do not polish or wax the car in direct sunlight.

Wash and dry the car thoroughly before you begin polishing or waxing. Clean off asphalt and tar stains using tar remover or white spirit. More stubborn stains can be removed using fine rubbing paste designed for car paintwork.

Polish first with a polish and then wax with liq- uid or solid wax. Follow the instructions on the packaging carefully. Many preparations con- tain both polish and wax.

IMPORTANT

Only paint treatment recommended by Volvo should be used. Other treatment such as preserving, sealing, protection, lustre sealing or similar could damage the paint- work. Paintwork damage caused by such treatments is not covered by Volvo war- ranty.

Water-repellent coating*

Never use products such as car wax, degreaser or similar on glass surfa-

ces as this could ruin their water-repellent properties.

Take care when cleaning so as not to damage the glass surface.

To avoid damaging glass surfaces when removing ice only use plastic ice scrapers.

There is natural wear of the water-repellent coating.

NOTE

Treatment with a special finishing agent available from Volvo dealers is recom- mended in order to maintain the water- repellent properties. This should be used first after three years and then each year.

Cleaning the interior

Only use cleaning agents and car care prod- ucts recommended by Volvo. Clean regularly and follow the instructions included with the car care product.

Vacuuming is important prior to using cleaning agents.

Carpets and cargo area

Remove inlaid carpets for separate cleaning of the floor carpet and the inlaid carpets. Use a vacuum cleaner to remove dust and dirt.

Each inlay mat is secured with pins.

Take hold of the inlay mat at each pin and lift the mat straight up.

Fit the inlay mat in place by pressing it in at each pin.

WARNING

Before setting off check that the inlaid mat in the driver area is firmly affixed and secured in the pins in order to avoid getting caught adjacent to and under the pedals.

A special textile cleaner is recommended for stains on the floor mat after vacuuming. Floor mats should be cleaned with agents recom- mended by your Volvo dealer!

Treatment of stains on textile upholstery

and headliner

A special fabric cleaning agent, available from authorised Volvo dealers, is recommended to avoid impairing the fire retardant qualities of the upholstery.

IMPORTANT

Sharp objects and Velcro may damage the fabric upholstery.

Treatment of stains on leather

upholstery and leather on the top of the

instrument panel*

Volvo's leather upholstery is chromium-free and is treated to preserve its original appear- ance.

Leather upholstery ages and acquires a beau- tiful patina over time. The leather is refined and processed so that it retains its natural charac- teristics. It is given a protective coating, but regular cleaning is required in order to maintain both characteristics and appearance. Volvo offers a comprehensive product for the clean- ing and treatment of leather upholstery which, when used in accordance with the instructions, preserves the leather's protective coating. After a period of use the natural appearance of the leather will nevertheless emerge, depend- ing more or less on the surface texture of the leather. This is a natural maturing of the leather and shows that it is a natural product.

To achieve best results Volvo recommends cleaning and the application of protective cream once to four times per year (or more if

necessary). The Volvo Leather Care kit is avail- able from your Volvo dealer.

IMPORTANT

Certain items of coloured clothing (for example, jeans and suede garments) may stain the upholstery.

Never use strong solvents. Such prod- ucts may damage fabric, vinyl and leather upholstery.

Washing instructions for leather

upholstery and leather on the top of the

Vacuuming is important prior to using leather care agents.

1. Pour a small amount of the protective cream on the felted cloth and massage in a thin layer of cream with gentle circular movements on the leather.

2. Allow the leather to dry for 20 minutes before use.

The leather has now been given improved pro- tection against stains and improved UV pro- tection.

IMPORTANT

Sharp objects may damage the leather, (e.g. rings).

Washing instructions for the leather

steering wheel

Remove dirt and dust with a soft pre-mois- tened sponge and neutral soap.

Leather needs to breathe. Never cover the leather steering wheel with protective plas- tic.

Use natural oils. Volvo's leather care agents are recommended for best results.

If the steering wheel has stains:

Group 1 (ink, wine, coffee, milk, sweat and blood)

Use a soft cloth or sponge. Mix a 5% ammonia solution. (For blood stains, use a solution of 2 dl water and 25g salt.)

Group 2 (fats, oils, sauces and chocolate)

1. Same procedure as group I.

2. Polish with an absorbent paper or cloth.

Group 3 (dry dirt, dust)

1. Use a soft brush to remove the dirt.

2. Same procedure as group I.

Treating stains on interior plastic, metal

and wood parts

A special cleaning agent, available from Volvo dealers, is recommended for cleaning interior parts and surfaces. Do not scrape or rub stains. Never use strong stain removers.

Cleaning seatbelts

Use water and a synthetic detergent. A special textile cleaning agent is available from your Volvo dealer. Make sure the seatbelt is dry before allowing it to retract.

Touching up paintwork

08

202

Paintwork

Paint is an important part of the car's rust- proofing and should therefore be checked reg- ularly. To avoid the onset of rust, damaged paintwork should be rectified immediately. The most common types of paintwork damage are stone chips, scratches, and marks on the edges of wings and doors.

Colour code

Data plate.

Code for car colour

It is important that the correct colour is used. For product decal location, see page 268.

Stone chips and scratches

G 02 03 45

Before touching up paintwork, the car must be clean and dry and at a temperature above 15 C.

Materials

Primer in a can

Spray can or touch-up pen1

Masking tape.

Minor stone chips and scratches

If the stone chip has not penetrated to the bare metal and there is an undamaged colour coat, you can paint straight after cleaning the dam- aged area.

If the stone chip has penetrated to the

bare metal

1. Apply a piece of masking tape over the damaged surface. Then remove the tape to remove any loose paint.

2. Stir the primer well and apply using a fine brush or a matchstick. Apply paint using a brush once the primer is dry.

3. For scratches, proceed as above, but mask around the damaged area to protect the undamaged paintwork.

4. After a few days, polish the touched-up areas. Use a soft rag and a small amount of lapping paste.

1 Follow the instructions contained in the touch-up pen's packaging.

08 Car care

Rustproofing

08

203

Inspection and maintenance

Your car has already received a thorough and complete rustproofing at the factory. Parts of the body are made of galvanised sheet metal. The underbody is protected by a wear-resis- tant anti-corrosion compound. A thin, pene- trating rustproofing fluid was sprayed into the members, cavities and closed sections.

Maintain the car's rustproofing.

Keep the car clean. Hose down the under- body. If using a pressure washer, keep the nozzle at least 30 cm from the painted sur- faces.

Regularly check and touch-up the rust- proofing treatment as necessary.

The car's rustproofing does not normally require treatment for approximately 12 years. After this period, it should be treated at three- year intervals. If the car needs further treat- ment, Volvo recommends that you engage an authorised Volvo workshop for assistance.

Volvo service programme

Before the car left the factory, it was thoroughly test driven. It was checked again in accord- ance with Volvo Car Corporation regulations before it was handed over to you.

To keep your Volvo as safe and reliable as pos- sible, follow the Volvo service programme specified in the Service and Warranty Booklet. Volvo also recommends that you engage an authorised Volvo workshop to perform the service and maintenance work. Volvo work- shops have the personnel, special tools and service literature to guarantee the highest qual- ity of service.

IMPORTANT

For the Volvo warranty to apply, check and follow the instructions in the Service and Warranty Booklet.

Special service measures

Certain service measures which affect the car's electrical system can only be performed using electronic equipment specially developed for your car. For this reason, Volvo recommends that you always contact an authorised Volvo workshop before beginning or performing service work that affects the electrical system.

09 Maintenance and service

Self-maintenance 09

207

Before starting work on the car

Battery

Check that the battery cables are correctly connected and tightened.

Never disconnect the battery when the engine is running (e.g. if replacing the battery).

Never use a quick charger to charge the bat- tery. The battery cables must be disconnected when charging the battery.

The battery contains acid that is both corrosive and toxic. It is therefore important to handle the battery in an environmentally correct manner. Let your Volvo dealer assist you.

WARNING

The ignition system has very high voltage and output. The voltage in the ignition sys- tem is highly dangerous. The ignition must therefore always be switched off for work in the engine compartment.

Do not touch the spark plugs or ignition coils when the ignition is on or the engine is hot.

Raising the car

NOTE

Volvo recommends only using the jack that belongs to the car model in question. If a jack is selected other than the one recom- mended by Volvo, follow the instructions for use supplied with the equipment.

If the car is raised with a workshop jack; posi- tion the jack against the front edge on the sub- frame.

Do not damage the splashguard under the engine. Ensure that the jack is positioned so that the car cannot slide off the jack. Always use axle stands or similar.

If you raise the car using a two-pillar workshop lift, ensure that the front and rear lift arms are fixed under the lifting points. See preceding illustration.

Check regularly

Check the following at regular intervals, for example, when refuelling:

Coolant The level must be between the MIN and MAX marks on the expansion tank.

Engine oil The level must be between the MIN and MAX marks.

Power steering fluid The level must be between the MIN and MAX marks.

Washer fluid The reservoir should be well filled. Fill washer fluid with antifreeze at temperatures around freezing point.

Brake and clutch fluid The level must be between the MIN and MAX marks.

WARNING

Remember that the radiator fan (located at the front of the engine compartment, behind the radiator) may start automatically some after the engine has been switched off.

Always have the engine cleaned by a work- shop. There is a risk of fire if the engine is hot.

Checking the engine oil

Volvo recommends Castrol oil products.

IMPORTANT

Always use oil of the prescribed grade. Check the oil level frequently and change the oil regularly. The engine will be damaged if lower grade oil is used or if the car is driven with the oil level too low.

When driving under adverse conditions, see page 274.

IMPORTANT

In order to fulfil the requirements for the engine's service intervals all engines are filled with a specially adapted synthetic engine oil at the factory. The choice of oil has been made very carefully with regard to service life, starting characteristics, fuel consumption and environmental impact.

An approved engine oil must be used in order that the recommended service inter- vals can be applied. Only use a prescribed grade of oil for both filling and oil change, otherwise you will risk affecting service life, starting characteristics, fuel consumption and environmental impact.

Volvo Car Corporation disclaims all war- ranty liability if engine oil of the prescribed grade and viscosity is not used.

Volvo recommends that oil changes are car- ried out at an authorised Volvo workshop.

Volvo uses different systems for warning of low/high oil level or low/high oil pressure. Cer- tain variants have an oil pressure sensor, and then the lamp for oil pressure is used. Other variants have an oil level sensor, and then the driver is informed via the warning symbol in the centre of the instrument unit as well as by dis- play texts. Certain models have both variants. Contact a Volvo dealer for more information.

Change the engine oil and oil filter in accord- ance with the intervals specified in the Service and Warranty Booklet.

Using oil of a higher than specified grade is permitted. If the car is driven in adverse con- ditions, Volvo recommends using an oil of a higher grade, see page 274.

For capacities, see page 275 and onwards.

Checking the oil level in a new car is especially important before the first scheduled oil change.

Volvo recommends checking the oil level every 2 500 km. The most accurate measurements are made on a cold engine before starting. The measurement will be inaccurate if taken imme- diately after the engine is switched off. The dipstick will indicate that the level is too low because the oil has not had time to flow down into the oil sump.

G 02 03 36

The oil level must be within the area marked on the dipstick.

Measurement and filling if required

1. Ensure that the car is level. After switching off the engine it is important to wait 5 minutes to allow the oil time to run back to the sump.

2. Pull up and wipe the dipstick.

3. Re-insert the dipstick.

4. Pull it out and check the level.

5. If the level is close to MIN then 0.5 litres should be added. If the level is significantly

below, then an additional amount is required.

6. If required, check the level again, do it after driving a short distance. Then repeat steps 1 - 4.

WARNING

Never fill above the MAX mark. The level should never be above MAX or below MIN as this could lead to engine damage.

WARNING

Do not spill oil onto the hot exhaust manifold due to the risk of fire.

Washer fluid, topping up

The windscreen and headlamp washers share a common reservoir.

For capacities, see the table Fluids on page 276.

Filler cap on 4-cylinder engines and diesel.

Filler cap on 5-cylinder engines.

Add washer fluid with antifreeze in the winter so that the fluid does not freeze in the pump, reservoir and hoses.

NOTE

Mix concentrated washer fluid with water before filling.

TIP! Clean the wiper blades when topping up washer fluid.

Checking and topping up the coolant

When topping up the coolant, follow the instructions on the packaging. It is important that the mixture of coolant concentrate and water is correct for the prevailing weather con- ditions. Never top up with water only. The risk of freezing increases with both too little and too much coolant concentrate.

09 Maintenance and service

Oils and fluids 09

214

IMPORTANT

A high content of chlorine, chlorides and other salts may cause corrosion in the cooling system.

Always use coolant with anti-corrosion agent as recommended by Volvo.

Ensure that the coolant mixture is 50% water and 50% coolant.

Mix the coolant with approved quality tap water. In the event of any doubt about water quality, used ready-mixed coolant in accordance with Volvo rec- ommendations.

When changing coolant/replacing cool- ing system components, flush the cool- ing system clean with approved quality tap water or flush with ready-mixed coolant.

The engine must only be run with a well- filled cooling system. Otherwise, tem- peratures that are too high may occur resulting in the risk of damage (cracks) in the cylinder head.

For capacities and for standards regarding water quality, see page 276.

Check the coolant regularly

The level must lie between the MIN and MAX

marks on the expansion tank. If the system is not filled sufficiently, high local temperatures could occur, causing a risk of damage (cracks) to the cylinder head. Top up the coolant when the level falls to the MIN mark.

WARNING

Coolant can be very hot. If the coolant requires topping up when the engine is at operating temperature, unscrew the expan- sion tank cap slowly to gently release the overpressure.

NOTE

The engine must only be run with a well- filled cooling system. Otherwise, tempera- tures that are too high may occur resulting in the risk of damage (cracks) in the cylinder head.

Checking and topping up the brake and clutch fluid

Brake and clutch fluid have a common reser- voir4. The fluid level must be between the MIN and MAX marks. Check the level regularly. Change the brake fluid every other year or at every other regular service.

For capacities and recommended fluid grade, see the table Fluids on page 276.

The fluid should be changed annually on cars driven in conditions requiring hard, frequent braking, such as driving in mountains or tropi- cal climates with high humidity.

09 Maintenance and service

Battery 09

217

Operation

The service life and function of the battery is influenced by factors such as the number of starts, discharging, driving style, driving con- ditions and climatic conditions.

Never disconnect the battery when the engine is running.

Check that the cables to the battery are correctly connected and properly tight- ened.

WARNING

The battery can generate oxyhydrogen gas, which is highly explosive. A spark can be formed if a jump lead is con- nected incorrectly, and this can be enough for the battery to explode.

The battery contains sulphuric acid, which can cause serious burns.

If sulphuric acid comes into contact with eyes, skin or clothing, flush with large quantities of water. If acid splashes into the eyes - seek medical attention immediately.

NOTE

The life of the battery is shortened if it becomes discharged repeatedly.

The life of the battery is affected by several factors, including driving conditions and cli- mate. Battery starting capacity decreases gradually with time and therefore needs to be recharged if the car is not used for a longer time or when it is only driven short distances. Extreme cold further limits star- ting capacity.

To maintain the battery in good condition, at least 15 minutes of driving/week is recom- mended or that the battery is connected to a battery charger with automatic trickle charging.

A battery that is kept fully charged has a maximum service life.

Fuses 09

225

General

All electrical functions and components are fused to protect the car's electrical system from damage by short circuiting and overload- ing.

The fuses are in two different locations in the car:

Relay/Fuse box in the engine compart- ment.

Relay/Fuse box in the passenger compart- ment.

Changing

If an electrical component or function does not work, it may be because the component's fuse was temporarily overloaded and blew.

1. Look in the fuse diagram to locate the fuse.

2. Pull out the fuse and check from the side to see whether the curved wire has blown.

3. If this is the case, replace it with a new fuse of the same colour and amperage.

Each fuse box has space for several spare fuses. If the same fuse fails repeatedly then there is a fault in the component. In which case, Volvo recommends that you visit an authorised Volvo workshop for this to be checked.

WARNING

Never use a foreign object, or a fuse with an amperage higher than that specified when replacing a fuse. This could cause signifi- cant damage to the electrical system and possibly lead to fire.

The fuse box has 36 fuse positions. Be sure to replace a blown fuse with a new fuse of the same colour and amperage.

Fuses 19-36 are of the "Mini Fuse" type.

Fuses 7-18 are of the "JCASE" type and should be replaced by a workshop.1

Fuses 1-6 are of the "Midi Fuse" type and must only be replaced by a workshop.1

On the inside of the cover there are tweezers that facilitate the procedure for the removal and fitting of fuses.

The system supports the playback of music files in the MP3, WMA and WAV file formats. However, there are variants of these file for- mats that are not supported by the system. The system also supports most iPod mod- els produced in 2005 or later. iPod Shuffle is not supported.

USB memory

To facilitate the use of USB memory avoid stor- ing any files other than music files in the mem- ory. It takes considerably longer for the system to load storage media that contains items other than playable music files.

NOTE

The system supports removable media which is compatible with USB 2.0 and the FAT32 file system, and can handle a maxi- mum of 500 folders and 64 000 files. The memory must have a capacity of at least 256 Mb.

MP3 player

Many MP3 players have their own file systems that are not supported by the audio system. For use in the system, an MP3 player must be set in USB Removable device/Mass Storage

Device mode.

iPod

An iPod is charged and supplied with power by the USB connection via the player's con- nection cable. However, if the player's battery is completely discharged then it must be charged before the player is connected.

NOTE

When an iPod is used as audio source, the car's infotainment system has a menu structure that is similar to the iPod player's own menu structure.

AUX

Sometimes the AUX external audio source can be heard at a different volume to the internal audio sources, e.g. the CD player. If the audio volume of the external audio source is too high then the sound quality can be impaired. Pre- vent this by adjusting the input volume of the AUX input.

NOTE

The sound quality may be impaired if the player is charged while the audio system is in AUX mode, so avoid charging the player.

Weights

Kerb weight includes the driver, the fuel tank 90% full and all fluids.

The weight of passengers and accessories, and towball load (when a trailer is hitched, see table) influences the payload and is not included in the kerb weight.

Permitted maximum load = Gross vehicle weight - Kerb weight.

NOTE

The documented kerb weight applies to cars in the standard version - i.e. a car with- out extra equipment or accessories. This means that for every accessory added the loading capacity of the car is reduced cor- respondingly by the weight of the acces- sory.

Examples of accessories that reduce load- ing capacity are the Kinetic/Momentum/ Summum equipment levels, as well as other accessories such as Towbar, Audio system, Auxiliary lamps, GPS, Fuel-driven heater, Carpets, Power seats, etc.

Weighing the car is a certain way of ascer- taining the kerb weight of your own partic- ular car.

WARNING

The car's driving characteristics change depending on how heavily it is loaded and how the load is distributed.

For decal location, see page 268.

Adverse driving conditions

Adverse driving conditions can lead to abnor- mally high oil temperature or oil consumption. Below are some examples of adverse driving conditions.

Check the oil level more frequently for long journeys:

towing a caravan or trailer

in mountainous regions

at high speeds

in temperatures colder than -30 C or hot- ter than +40 C

The above also apply to shorter driving dis- tances at low temperatures.

Choose a fully synthetic engine oil for adverse driving conditions. It provides extra protection for the engine.

Volvo recommends Castrol oil products.

IMPORTANT

In order to fulfil the requirements for the engine's service intervals all engines are filled with a specially adapted synthetic engine oil at the factory. The choice of oil has been made very carefully with regard to service life, starting characteristics, fuel consumption and environmental impact.

An approved engine oil must be used in order that the recommended service inter- vals can be applied. Only use a prescribed grade of oil for both filling and oil change, otherwise you will risk affecting service life, starting characteristics, fuel consumption and environmental impact.

Volvo Car Corporation disclaims all war- ranty liability if engine oil of the prescribed grade and viscosity is not used.

Volvo recommends that oil changes are car- ried out at an authorised Volvo workshop.

Fuel consumption and emissions of

carbon dioxide

Fuel consumption and emission values in the table above are based on specific EU cycles1, that apply to cars with kerb weight in the basic version and without extra equipment. The car's weight may increase depending on equipment.

This, as well as how heavily the car is loaded, increases fuel consumption and carbon diox- ide emissions.

There are several reasons for increased fuel consumption compared with the table's val- ues. Examples of this are:

1 Official fuel consumption figures are based on two standardised driving cycles in a laboratory environment ("EU driving cycles") all in accordance with EU Directive 80/1268/EEC (Euro 4), EU Regulation no 692/2008 (Euro 5) and UN ECE Regulation no 101. The regulations cover the driving cycles for city driving and driving on main roads. - City driving - the measurement starts with cold starting the engine. The driving is simulated. - Driving on main roads - the car is accelerated and braked at speeds between 0-120 km/h. The driving is simulated. The value for combined driving, which is reported in the table, is a combination of city driving and driving on main roads, in accordance with legal requirements. CO2 emissions - the exhaust gases are collected in order to calculate the carbon dioxide emissions during the two driving cycles. These are then analysed and give the value for CO2 emissions.

The driver's driving style.

If the customer has specified wheels larger than those fitted as standard on the mod- el's basic version, then resistance increa- ses.

High speed results in increased wind resis- tance.

Fuel quality, road and traffic conditions, weather and the condition of the car.

Even a combination of the above-mentioned examples can result in significantly improved consumption. For further information, please refer to the regulations referred to1.

Large deviations in fuel consumption may arise in a comparison with the EU driving cycles1

which are used in the certification of the car and on which the consumption figures in the table are based.

To bear in mind

Tips that the driver can use in order to reduce consumption:

Drive gently and avoid unnecessary accel- eration as well as braking too hard.

Drive with the correct air pressure in the tyres and check this regularly - select ECO

tyre pressure for best results, see the tyre pressure table on page 280.

Choice of tyres can affect fuel consump- tion - seek advice on suitable tyres from a dealer.

See further information and more advice on pages 13 and 140.

See page 143 for general information on fuel.
