Introduction

Owner’s Manual

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 situations, and to make the best use of all the car’s features. Please pay attention to the safety instructions contained in the manual:

WARNING

"Warning!" texts indicate where there is a risk of personal injury in the event of the instructions not being followed.

NOTE

Volvo cars are adapted for the varying requirements of different markets, as well as for national or local legal requirements and regulations. If you are uncertain over what is standard, an option or an accessory then contact your Volvo dealer.

The specifications, design features and illustrations in this owner’s manual are not binding. We reserve the right to make modifications without prior notice.

Introduction

Volvo Car Corporation and the environment

Volvo Cars’ environmental philosophy

Environmental care, safety and quality are the three core values which influence all operations of the Volvo Car Corporation. We also believe that our customers share our consideration for the environment.

Your Volvo complies with strict international environmental standards and is also manufactured in one of the cleanest and most resource-efficient plants in the world.

Volvo Car Corporation has global ISO certification, which includes the environmental standard (ISO 14001) covering factories, central functions, as well as several of our

other units. We also set requirements for our partners so that they work systematically with environmental issues.

EPI (Environmental Product Information) is supplied for all Volvo models. Here you can see how the environment is affected during the entire lifecycle of the car.

Read more at www.volvocars.com/EPI.

Fuel consumption

Volvo cars have competitive fuel consumption in each of their respective classes. Lower fuel consumption generally results in

lower emission of the greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide.

It is possible for the driver to influence fuel consumption. For more information read under the heading Reducing environmental impact on page 8.

Introduction

Volvo Car Corporation and the environment

Efficient emission control

Your Volvo is manufactured following the concept 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 compartment via the air intake.

A sophisticated air quality system, IAQS1 (Interior Air Quality System) ensures that the incoming air is cleaner than the air in the traffic outside.

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

1 Option

Textile standard

The interior of a Volvo is designed to be pleasant and comfortable, even for people with contact allergies and for asthma sufferers. All of our upholstery and interior textiles are tested with respect to certain unhealthy substances and allergens as well as emissions. This means that all textiles fulfil the requirements in the Öko-Tex 100 standard2, a major advance towards a healthier passenger compartment environment.

Öko-Tex certification covers seatbelts, carpets and fabrics for example. The leather in the upholstery undergoes chromium-free tanning with natural plant substances and fulfils the certification requirements.

Volvo workshops and the environment

Regular maintenance creates the conditions for a long service life and low fuel consumption for your car, and in this way you contribute to a cleaner environment. When Volvo’s workshops are entrusted with the service and maintenance of your car it becomes part of our system. 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, for example, by driving economically, by purchasing eco-labelled car care products and by servicing and maintaining the car in accordance with the instructions in the owner’s manual.

The following hints will help you to do your bit for the environment (for further advice on how you can reduce environmental impact and drive economically, see page 116).

•Decrease fuel consumption by choosing ECO tyre pressure, see page 158.

•Remove unnecessary items from the car - the greater the load the higher the fuel consumption.

•Is your car equipped with an engine block heater? If so, use it for a few hours before starting from cold to reduce fuel consumption and exhaust emissions.

•Drive gently and avoid braking too hard.

•Drive in the highest gear

possible. Low engine speeds result in lower fuel consumption.

• Use engine braking to slow down.

•Avoid idling. Take consideration of local regulations. Switch off the engine in longer stationary traffic.

8

Introduction

Volvo Car Corporation and the environment

• Always dispose of environmentally hazardous waste, such as batteries and oils, in an environmentally responsible manner. If uncertain, consult an authorised Volvo workshop for advice.

•Service your car regularly.

•High speed increases consumption considerably due to increased wind resistance. A doubling of speed increases wind resistance four times.

These hints will help you to reduce your fuel consumption without increasing your travel time or lessening the enjoyment of driving.

Apart from being kind to your car, you’ll be saving money - and the Earth’s resources.

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 seatbelt 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 all slack from the seatbelt and ensure that it fits close to the body. 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

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

01 Safety

Airbags (SRS)	01

SRS system

G020111

SRS system, left-hand drive

G020110

SRS system, right-hand drive

G020113

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 normal. The entire process, including inflation and deflation of the airbag, takes place within tenths of a second.

WARNING

Repairs must only be performed by an authorised Volvo workshop. Any interference in the airbag system could cause malfunction and result in serious injury.

NOTE

The sensors react differently depending on the course of the collision and whether the seatbelts on the driver and passenger side are used. It is therefore possible that only one (or none) of the airbags may inflate in a collision. The SRS system senses the force of the collision on the car and adapts accordingly so that only the required airbag is deployed.

The airbags have a function whereby their capacities are adapted to the collision force to which the car is subjected.

01 Side airbags (SIPS bags)

Side airbags – SIPS bags

G020118

Side airbag locations

A large proportion of the collision force is transferred by the SIPS (Side Impact Protection System) to beams, pillars, the floor, the roof and other structural parts of the body. The side airbags at the driver’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.

20

WARNING

Repairs must only be performed by an authorised Volvo workshop.

Any interference in the SIPS bag system could cause malfunction and result in serious personal injury.

WARNING

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

WARNING

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

WARNING

Side airbags are a supplement the seatbelts. Always wear your seatbelt.

Child seats and side airbags

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

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

Driver’s seat, left-hand drive	Front passenger seat, left-hand drive	Location of airbag decal in door opening on front
		passenger side

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.

21

	01 Safety
01	Inflatable Curtain (IC)
	Properties
	G020971

The inflatable curtain, DMIC (Door Mounted Inflatable Curtain), is a supplement to the SIPS system. It is fitted inside along the driver’s and passenger side and protects both front seat occupants. The inflatable curtain is activated by sensors in the event of a sufficiently violent collision or if the car is at risk of overturning. When deployed, the inflatable curtain inflates. The inflatable curtain helps to prevent the driver and front seat passenger from striking their heads on the inside of the car during a collision. The inflatable curtain is deployed irrespective of whether the roof is open or closed.

WARNING

Do not screw or fit anything to the headlining, door pillars or side panels. This could compromise the intended protection. Only use Volvo genuine parts that are approved for placement in these areas.

WARNING

Do not load the car higher than 50 mm under the top edge of the side windows. Otherwise, the intended protection of the inflatable curtain, which is concealed in the headlining, may be compromised.

WARNING

The inflatable curtain is a supplement to the seatbelts.

Always use a seatbelt.

22

01 Safety

WHIPS 01

Protection against whiplash injury – WHIPS

G020347

The whiplash protection system (WHIPS) consists of energy absorbing backrests and specially designed head restraints for the front seats. The system is actuated by a rearend collision, where the angle and speed of the collision, and the nature of the colliding vehicle all have an influence.

WARNING

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

Properties of the seat

When the WHIPS system is deployed, the front seat backrests fall backward to alter the position of the driver and front seat passenger. This diminishes the risk of whiplash injury.

WARNING

Never modify or repair the seat or WHIPS system yourself. Contact an authorised Volvo workshop.

WHIPS system and child seats/booster cushions

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

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.

G020797

WARNING

Do not carry out any work on the ROPS system.

Do not place any objects on the ROPS system or behind the passengers’ head restraints.

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 overturning, 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.

Always contact an authorised Volvo workshop if the ROPS system has deployed.

1The 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 following is recommended:

•Have the car transported to an authorised Volvo workshop. Do not drive with deployed airbags.

•Let an authorised Volvo workshop replace components in the car’s safety system.

•Always contact a doctor.

NOTE

The SRS, SIPS, DMIC, belt tensioner and ROPS systems are deployed only once during a collision.

WARNING

The airbag system control module is located in the centre console. If the centre console is drenched with water or other liquid, disconnect the battery cables. Do not attempt to start the car since the airbags may deploy. Have the car transported 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 after intensive exposure. In case of irritation, wash with cold water. The rapid deployment sequence and airbag fabric may cause friction and skin burns.

Crash mode	01

Driving after a collision

G020127

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 collision may have damaged 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 should be no smell of fuel.

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

Firstly, remove the ignition 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 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 moving.

Moving the car

If NORMAL MODE is shown after CRASH MODE has been reset, the car can be moved carefully out of a dangerous position. Do not move the car further than necessary.

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. Always allow an authorised Volvo workshop to check and restore the car to

NORMAL MODE after CRASH MODE has been displayed.

WARNING

Never, under any circumstances, attempt to restart the car if it smells of fuel when the CRASH MODE 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 to an authorised Volvo workshop.

03 Climate control

General information on climate control

Air conditioning

The car is equipped with electronic climate control (ECC). The climate control system controls the air conditioning (AC) and the cooling, heating and dehumidifying of the air

in the passenger compartment.

03

NOTE

The air conditioning can be switched off, but to ensure the best possible air in the passenger compartment and prevent 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 windows 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

Entrust fault tracing and repair of the climate control system to an authorised Volvo workshop only.

Refrigerant

The air conditioning system contains R134a refrigerant. This refrigerant contains no chlorine, which means that it is harmless to the ozone layer. The system must only be charged with R134a refrigerant. Have an authorised Volvo workshop carry out this work.

Passenger compartment filter

All air which enters the passenger compartment is first cleaned by a filter. This filter must be replaced regularly. Follow the Volvo Service Programme for the recommended 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 several different types of passenger compartment filter. Ensure that the correct filter is installed.

Display

There is a display above the climate control panel that 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 compartment air.

For information about these settings, see page 61.

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.

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 interior rearview mirror.

NOTE

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

Side windows

To ensure that the air conditioning works satisfactorily, close all side windows and the roof.

Acceleration

The air conditioning switches off temporarily at full throttle. You may feel a temporary rise in temperature.

Functions

1. AUTO

Automatically maintains a selected passenger compartment temperature by regulating heat, fan speed, recirculation and air distribution.

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

When one or more manual functions are selected the other functions are controlled automatically. Pressing AUTO (1) switches off all manual settings. The display shows

AUTO CLIMATE.

2. Fan

68

03 Climate control

Electronic climate control, ECC

NOTE

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

3. Recirculation

Recirculation can be used to shut out bad air, exhaust

fumes, 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 misting on the insides of the windows.

Timer

The timer function minimises the risk of icing, misting and bad air if recirculation is selected. See Personal preferences,

page 61, for how to activate/deactivate the function.

NOTE

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

3. Air quality system (option)

(same button as recirculation)

The air quality system consists of a multifilter and a sensor. The filter separates gases and particles to

reduce the levels of odours and pollution 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) in the button illuminates 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 pressing repeatedly the recirculation button.

•Air quality sensor engaged – the LED (A) illuminates.

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

•Recirculation engaged – the LED (M) illuminates.

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

Quickly removes misting and ice from the windscreen

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 provide maximum dehumidification in the passenger compartment:

•the air conditioning (AC) is automatically switched on (can be switched off with the AC button (5)

•recirculation is automatically disengaged.

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

the rear window and door

mirrors. The rear window and door mirrors are defrosted simultaneously if

the button is pressed once. The function is active if one lamp is illuminated in the button.

The function is switched off manually or automatically. Switch off manually with one press on the button. Automatic switching off disconnects the rear window and door mir-

rors after 12-20 minutes depending on outside temperature.

During cold weather the defrosting also continues after 20 minutes in order to keep the rear window and door mirrors free of ice and mist.1 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 activate one side. 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

The car is supplied with two remote controls. They also serve as ignition keys. The remote controls contain detachable metal key blades for mechanical locking/unlocking of the driver’s door, boot lid and glovebox.

The key blades’ unique code is available at authorised Volvo workshops, who can order new key blades.

A maximum of six remote controls/key blades can be programmed and used for one single car.

Turn signal indication during locking/ unlocking

When the car is unlocked using the Keyless Drive system or the remote control, two short flashes of the direction indicators

serve to indicate 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 can be used to deactivate indication via the direction indicators. There will then be no visual indication as to whether the lock status is correct. See page 62.

Loss of a remote control

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