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 sit­uations, 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 illus­trations in this owner's manual are not binding. We reserve the right to make modifications without prior notice.

Recording data
Your vehicle contains a number of computers whose function is to continuously check and monitor the vehicle's operation and function­ality. Some of the computers can record infor­mation during normal driving if they detect an error. In addition, information is recorded in the event of a collision or incident. Parts of the recorded information are required so that tech­nicians 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 infor­mation 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 vehi­cle 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 informa­tion 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 require­ments and other regulations that Volvo needs to consider.
Volvo will not contribute to the above-descri­bed 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 infor­mation 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 main­tenance, is stored and handled in a secure manner and that the handling complies with applicable legal requirements. For further infor­mation - 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 serv­ices. 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 author­ised 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
G000000
Environmental care is one of Volvo Car Corpo­ration's core values which influence all opera­tions. 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 resource­efficient plants in the world. Volvo Car Corpo­ration 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 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.
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, IAQS* (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
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 plea­sant 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 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 - 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 War­ranty 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 rea­ches normal operating temperature more quickly, which lowers consumption and reduces emissions.
High speed increases consumption con­siderably due to increased wind resistance
- a doubling of speed increases wind resis­tance 4 times.
Always dispose of environmentally hazar­dous 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 recom­mended.
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
295.
Recycling
As a part of Volvo's environmental work, it is important that the car is recycled in an envi­ronmentally 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.
The owner's manual and the environment

certified forests or other
controlled sources.

General information
G020104
Tensioning the hip strap. The belt must be posi­tioned 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 with­drawn:
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 seat­belt 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 per­son.
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 dam­age. The new seatbelt must be type­approved and designed for installation at the same location as the replaced seatbelt.
WARNING
The rear seat is designed for a maximum of two passengers.

Seatbelts and pregnancy
G020105
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 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 posi­tion the seat with as large a distance as possi­ble between their abdomen and the steering wheel.
Seatbelt reminder
G018084
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 depend­ent. 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 press­ing the indicator stalk's READ button.
Provides a warning if one of the rear seat­belts 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 show­ing which seatbelts are in use is always avail­able. 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 ten­sioner tightens the seatbelt in the event of a sufficiently violent collision. The seatbelt then provides more effective restraint for occu­pants.
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 func­tion as intended in the event of a collision. There is a risk of serous injury.
Seatbelt guide
G020106
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.

appears in the display. Volvo rec­ommends that you contact an authorised Volvo workshop immediately.
WARNING
If the warning symbol for the airbag system remains illuminated or illuminates while driv­ing, it means that the airbag system does not have full functionality. The symbol indi­cates a fault in the seatbelt tensioner sys­tem, SIPS, SRS or the IC system. Volvo rec­ommends that you contact an authorised Volvo workshop immediately.

Airbag system
G020111
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 nor­mal. 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 per­sonal injury.
G020110
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 colli­sion. The airbag system senses the force of the collision on the car and adapts accord­ingly so that one or more airbags is deployed.
The capacities of the airbags are also adap­ted to the collision force to which they are subjected.

01 Safety
Side airbags (SIPS bags)

24
Side airbag
G020118
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, 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.
WARNING
Volvo recommends that repairs are only carried out by an authorised Volvo workshop. Defective work in the SIPS­bag 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 seat­belts. 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 activated

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 (IC)
01
26
Properties
The inflatable curtain IC (Inflatable Curtain) is a part of SIPS and the airbags. It is fitted in the headlining along both sides of the roof and protects the car's occupants sitting in the outer seats. A sufficiently violent collision trips the sensors and the inflatable curtain is inflated. The inflatable curtain helps to prevent the driver and passengers from striking their heads on the inside of the car during a collision.
WARNING
Never hang or attach heavy items onto the handles in the roof. The hook is only designed for light clothing (not for solid objects such as umbrellas for example).
Do not screw or install anything onto the car's headlining, door pillars or side panels. This could compromise the intended pro­tection. Volvo recommends that you only ever 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.

WHIPS

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 rear-end 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 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

Do not obstruct the WHIPS system
G020125
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 back­rest. Make sure you do not to obstruct the function of the WHIPS system.
G020126
Do not place objects in the rear seat that may pre­vent the WHIPS system from functioning.
WARNING
If a rear seat backrest is folded down, the corresponding front seat must be moved forward so that it does not touch the folded backrest.
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 sys­tem checked even after a minor rear-end collision.

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 follow­ing 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, IC and belt tensioner sys­tems are deployed only once during 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 liq­uid, disconnect the battery cables. Do not attempt to start the car since the airbags may deploy. Recovering the car. Volvo rec­ommends 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
30
Driving after a collision
G029042
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 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 mov­ing.
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 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. 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 loca­tion. Volvo recommends that you have it conveyed to an authorised Volvo workshop.

Children should sit comfortably and safely
Volvo recommends that children travel in rear­facing child seats until as late an age as pos­sible, 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 32.
NOTE
Regulations regarding the placement of children in cars vary from country to coun­try. 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 Vol­vo'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.

Daytime running lights - DRL*
To save fuel, daytime running lights (Daytime Running Light) can be selected during the day instead of the more energy-intensive dipped beam. The daytime running lights mounted in the spoiler use bright, low-energy diode tech­nology.
Lighting panel for halogen headlamps with DRL.
Lighting panel for active Xenon headlamps with DRL.
With the headlamp control in position A, the daytime running lights are activated automati­cally during the day. This is regulated by a light sensor which switches from daytime running lights to dipped beam off the main headlamps at dusk or when the daylight becomes too weak.
For the meaning of the headlamp control's dif­ferent positions, depending on type of head­lamp, see the preceding tables on pages 57 and 58.
NOTE
To achieve minimal energy consumption, the rear lights are also switched off when switching automatically from dipped beam to DRLs.
WARNING
This system help to save energy - it cannot determine in all situations when daylight is too weak or sufficiently strong, e.g. in mist and rain.
The driver is always responsible for ensuring that the car is driven with its lights in a cor­rect state and in accordance with applicable traffic regulations.

General
G030070
HomeLink1 is a programmable remote control which can remotely control up to three different devices (e.g. garage door opener, alarm sys­tem, outdoor lighting and indoor lighting etc.) and in doing so replace their remote controls. For more information on HomeLink
, visit: www.homelink.com or ring 00 8000 466 354 65 (or premium rate phone number, +49 6838 907 277).
WARNING
If HomeLink is used to operate a garage door or gate, make sure that there is no-one in the vicinity of the door or gate while it is moving.
The car should remain outside the garage while a garage door opener is being programmed.
Do not use HomeLink for any garage door that does not have safety stop and safety reverse.
Save the original remote controls for future programming (e.g. when changing to another car or for use in another vehicle). It is also rec­ommended that the programming for the but­tons is deleted when the car is sold. See the section "Resetting the HomeLink® buttons" on page 84.
Programming HomeLink
NOTE
In certain vehicles the ignition must be switched on or in "accessory position" before HomeLink
can be programmed or used. If possible, fit new batteries in the remote control that shall be replaced by HomeLink
for faster programming and improved transmission of the radio signal. The HomeLink
buttons should be reset before programming. When this has been done HomeLink
is set in "learn mode" and
ready for programming.
1. Aim the original remote control towards the HomeLink
button to be programmed and hold it 5-14 cm from the button. Do not obstruct the indicator lamp on HomeLink
.
2. Depress the button on 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 flash­ing. Both the buttons must be released when the indicator lamp flashes quickly.

3.
Depress the HomeLink
button being
programmed, hold it depressed for 5 seconds and then release it. Repeat if
necessary until the garage door is acti­vated. If the door is not activated, press the programmed HomeLink
button and hold
it depressed and check the indicator lamp. >
Constant glow: The indicator lamp illu­minates 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. In which case, continue with the programming steps 4-6 in order to com­plete the programming of a device with rolling code (usually a garage door opener).
4.
Locate the "programming button
2
" on the receiver for the garage door for example, normally located close to the antenna's bracket on the receiver.
5. Depress and release the receiver's "pro­gramming button". The button flashes for approx. 30 seconds and the next step must be carried out within this period.
6. While the receiver's "programming button" is still flashing, press the button on HomeLink
being programmed and hold it depressed for approx. 2 seconds and then release it. Repeat the press/hold/release sequence up to 3 times to conclude the programming.
Operation
When HomeLink is fully programmed it can be used in place of the separate original remote controls.
Press the programmed button and hold it depressed until the garage door, alarm system, etc. is activated (may take several seconds). Naturally the original remote controls can still be used in parallel with HomeLink
if required.
NOTE
If the ignition is switched off, HomeLink will work for 30 minutes after the driver's door has been opened.
If programming problems persist, contact HomeLink
on: www.homelink.com or ring 00 8000 466 354 65 (or premium rate phone number +49 6838 907 277).

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 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).
Passenger compartment filter
All air entering the car's passenger compart­ment is only cleaned with one filter. This must be replaced at regular intervals. 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 different types of passenger com­partment 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 com­partment air.
For information about these settings, see page 80.

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 con­trols being set for the same temperature on both sides.
Sensor location
The sun sensor is on the top side of the instrument panel.
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 and sunroof
To ensure that the air conditioning works sat­isfactorily, close all side windows and the sun­roof (if fitted).
Acceleration
The air conditioning system switches off tem­porarily 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.
