Changing the language in the car's screen

Changing the language in the car's display may mean that some information does not correspond to national or local laws and regulations. Don't change to a language that's difficult to under­stand, it may then be difficult to find your way back in the structure on the screen.
IMPORTANT
The driver is always responsible that the vehi­cle is driven safely in traffic and that applica­ble laws and regulations are followed. It is also important that the car is maintained and handled in accordance with Volvo's recom­mendations in the owner's information.
If there should be a difference between the information in the screen and the printed information then it is always the printed infor­mation that applies.

Reading the 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.
Reading the owner's manual is a good way to become familiar with new functions, get advice on how best to handle the car in different situa­tions and learn how to make the best use of all the car's features. Please pay attention to the safety instructions contained in the owner's man­ual.

Recording data

As part of Volvo's safety and quality assurance, certain information about the vehicle's operation, functionality and incidents are recorded in the car.
This vehicle is equipped with an "Event Data Recorder" (EDR). Its primary purpose is to regis­ter and record data related to traffic accidents or collision-like situations, such as times when the airbag deploys or the vehicle strikes an obstacle in the road. The data is recorded in order to increase understanding of how vehicle systems work in these types of situations. The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety systems for a short time, usually 30 seconds or less.
The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record data related to the following in the event of traffic accidents or collision-like situations:
How the various systems in the car worked
Whether the driver and passenger seatbelts were fastened/tensioned
The driver's use of the accelerator or brake pedal
The travel speed of the vehicle
This information can help us better understand the circumstances in which traffic accidents, inju­ries and damage occur. The EDR only records data when a non-trivial collision situation occurs. The EDR does not record any data during normal
driving conditions. Similarly, the system never registers who is driving the vehicle or the geo­graphic location of the accident or near-miss sit­uation. However, other parties, such as the police, could use the recorded data in combination with the type of personally identifiable information routinely collected after a traffic accident. Special equipment and access to either the vehicle or the EDR is required to be able to interpret the regis­tered data.
In addition to the EDR, the car is equipped with a number of computers designed to continually check and monitor the function of the car. They can record data during normal driving conditions, but in particular register faults affecting the vehi­cle's operation and functionality, or upon activa­tion of the vehicle's active driver support function (e.g. City Safety and the auto brake function).
Some of the recorded data is required to enable service and maintenance technicians to diagnose and remedy any faults that occurred in the vehi­cle. The registered information is also needed to enable Volvo to satisfy legal requirements laid out in laws and by government authorities. Informa­tion registered in the vehicle is stored in its com­puter until the vehicle is serviced or repaired.
In addition to the above, the registered informa­tion can be used in aggregate form for research and product development with the aim of contin­uously improving the safety and quality of Volvo cars.

Environmental philosophy

Volvo Car Corporation is constantly working on the development of safer and more efficient
products and solutions in order to reduce the negative impact on the environment.
Environmental care is one of Volvo Cars’ core val­ues and influences all operations. The environ­mental work is based on the whole life cycle of the car and takes into account the environmental impact it has, from design to scrapping and recy­cling. Volvo Cars' basic principle is that every new product developed must have less impact on the environment than the product it replaces.
Volvo's environmental management work has resulted in the development of the more efficient and less polluting Drive-E drivelines. The personal environment is also important to Volvo - the air
inside a Volvo is, for example, cleaner than the air outside thanks to the climate control system.
Your Volvo complies with stringent international environmental standards. All Volvo's manufactur­ing units must be ISO 14001 certified, and this supports a systematic approach to the opera­tion's environmental issues, which leads to con­tinuous improvement with reduced environmental impact. Holding the ISO certificate also means that environmental laws and regulations in force are complied with. Volvo also requires that its partners must also meet these requirements.

Fuel consumption

Since a large part of a car's total environmental impact stems from its use, the emphasis of Volvo Cars' environmental work is on reducing fuel con­sumption, carbon dioxide emissions and other air pollutants. 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.

Contributing to a better environment
An energy-efficient and fuel-efficient car not only contributes to a reduced impact on the environ­ment, but also means reduced costs for the owner of the car. As the driver, it is easy to reduce fuel consumption and thereby save money and contribute to a better environment ­here is some advice:
Plan for an effective average speed. Speeds above approx. 80 km/h (50 mph) and below 50 km/h (30 mph) lead to increased energy consumption.
Follow the Service and Warranty Booklet's recommended intervals for service and main­tenance of the car.
Avoid letting the engine idle - switch off the engine when stationary for longer periods. Pay attention to local regulations.
Plan the journey - a lot of unnecessary stops and uneven speed contribute to increased fuel consumption.
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.
Also remember to always dispose of environmen­tally hazardous waste, such as batteries and oil, in an environmentally safe manner. Consult a work-
shop 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 Eco guide (p. 66), Economical driv­ing (p. 307) and Fuel consumption (p. 425).

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.
The Interior Air Quality System (IAQS)* ensures that the incoming air is cleaner than the air in the traffic outside.
The system cleans the air in the passenger com­partment from contaminants such as particles, hydrocarbons, nitrous oxides and ground-level ozone. If the outside air is contaminated then the air intake is closed and the air is recirculated. Such a situation may arise in heavy traffic, queues and tunnels for example.
IAQS is a part of the Clean Zone Interior Pack­age (CZIP)*, which also includes a function that allows the fan to start when the car is unlocked with the remote control key.

Interior

The material used in the interior of a Volvo is carefully selected and has been tested in order to be pleasant and comfortable. Some of the details are hand-made, such as the seams of the steer­ing wheel that are sewn by hand. The interior is monitored in order not to emit strong odours or substances that cause discomfort in the event of e.g. high heat and bright light.

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 also contribute to a cleaner environment. When Volvo's workshops are entrusted with the service and maintenance of your car it becomes part of Volvo's system. Volvo makes clear demands regarding the way in which workshop premises shall be designed in order to prevent spills and discharges into the environment. The workshop staff have the knowl­edge and the tools required to guarantee good environmental care.

Recycling

Since Volvo works from a life cycle perspective, it is also 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

General information on seatbelts

Heavy braking can have serious consequences if the seatbelts are not used. Ensure that all pas­sengers are using their seatbelts during the jour­ney.
Tension the hip strap over the lap by pulling the diagonal shoulder belt up towards the shoulder. The hip strap must be positioned low down (not over the abdomen).
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.
Unbelted occupants will be reminded to fasten their (p. 29) seatbelt by means of an audio and visual reminder (p. 31).

Remember

Do not use clips or anything else that can prevent the seatbelt from fitting properly.
The seatbelt must not be twisted or caught on anything.
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 seatbelts yourself. Volvo recommends that you contact an authorised Volvo workshop.
If a seatbelt has been subjected to a major load, such as in conjunction with a collision, the entire seatbelt must be replaced. Some of the protective characteristics of the seatbelt may have been lost, even if it appears to be undamaged. In addition, replace the seatbelt if the belt is worn or damaged. The new seat­belt must be type-approved and intended for installation in the same position as the replaced seatbelt.

Seatbelt - pregnancy

Seatbelt (p. 28) must always be worn during pregnancy. But it is crucial that it be worn in the correct way.
G020998
The diagonal section should wrap over the shoul­der then be routed between the breasts and to the side of the abdomen.
The lap section 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 the pregnancy progresses, pregnant drivers must adjust the seat (p. 79) and steering wheel (p. 83) 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). The aim should be to
position the seat with as large a distance as pos­sible between abdomen and steering wheel.

Seatbelt reminder

Unbelted occupants will be reminded to fasten their (p. 29) seatbelt by means of an audio and visual reminder.
G017726
The audio reminder is speed dependent, and in some cases time dependent. The visual reminder is located in the roof console and in the com­bined instrument panel (p. 62).
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 (p. 28) are being used in the rear seat. A message appears in the combined instru­ment panel when the seatbelts are in use, or if one of the rear doors has been opened.
The message is cleared automatically after driving for approximately 30 seconds or after pressing the indicator stalk OK button (p. 106).
Provides a warning if one of the rear seat­belts is unfastened during travel. This warn­ing takes the form of a message in the com­bined instrument panel along with the audio/ visual signal. The warning stops when the seatbelt is re-fastened, or it can also be acknowledged manually by pressing the OK button.
The message in the combined instrument panel showing which seatbelts are in use is always shown. Press the OK button to see stored mes­sages.

Certain markets

An acoustic signal and indicator lamp remind the driver and front seat passenger to use a seatbelt if either of them is not wearing one. At low speed, the audio reminder will sound for the first 6 sec­onds.

Seatbelt tensioner

All the seatbelts (p. 28) are equipped with belt 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 the 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.

Airbag system

In the event of a frontal collision the airbag sys­tem helps to protect the head, face and chest of the driver and passenger.
G018665
Airbag system viewed from above, left-hand-drive car.
G018666
Airbag system viewed from above, right-hand-drive car.
The system consists of airbags and sensors. A sufficiently violent collision trips the sensors and the airbag(s) are inflated and become hot. The airbag cushions the initial collision impact for the occupant. The airbag deflates when compressed by the collision. When this occurs, smoke escapes into the car. This is completely normal. The entire process, including inflation and defla­tion of the airbag, occurs within tenths of a sec­ond.
If the airbags have 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.
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.
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.
NOTE
The detectors react differently depending on the nature of the collision and whether or not the seatbelts are fastened. Applies to all belt positions.
It is therefore possible that only one (or none) of the airbags may inflate in a collision. The detectors sense the force of the collision on the vehicle and the action is adapted accord­ingly so that one or more airbags are deployed.

Side airbag (SIPS)

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 the hip and are an important part of the SIPS.
G032949
The SIPS bag system consists of two main com­ponents, side airbag and sensors. The side air­bags are located in the front seat's backrests.
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.
Driver's seat, left-hand drive.
Front passenger seat, left-hand drive.
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 put 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.

SIPS and child seats

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.

The inflatable curtain helps to prevent the driver and passengers from striking their heads on the inside of the car during a collision.
Inflatable curtain IC (Inflatable Curtain) is part of the SIPS system (p. 38) and the airbag system (p. 33). It is fitted along both sides of the headlin­ing and helps protect the driver and passengers in the car's outer seats. A sufficiently violent colli­sion trips the sensors and the inflatable curtain is inflated.
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 windows in the doors. 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.

General information on WHIPS (whiplash protection)

WHIPS (Whiplash Protection System) is a pro­tection against whiplash injuries. The system consists of energy absorbing backrests and specially designed head restraints in the front seats.
||
SAFETY
40
The WHIPS 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.

Seat properties

When the WHIPS system is deployed, the front seat backrests are lowered backward to change 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 and child seats

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.

Related information

WHIPS - seating position (p. 40)
General information on seatbelts (p. 28)

WHIPS - seating position

For optimum protection from the WHIPS system (p. 39) the driver and passenger must have the correct seating position and make sure that the system's function is not obstructed.

Seating position

Set the correct seating position in the front seat (p. 79) before driving starts.
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.

Function

Do not leave any objects on the floor behind the driver's seat/passenger seat that may prevent the WHIPS sys­tem from functioning.
SAFETY
41
WARNING
Do not squeeze rigid objects between the rear seat cushion and the front seat's back­rest. Make sure you do not to obstruct the function of the WHIPS system.
Do not place objects on 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 make contact with 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 seat appears to be undamaged.
Volvo recommends that you contact an authorised Volvo workshop to have the sys­tem checked even after a minor rear-end col­lision.

Roll Over Protection System (ROPS)

Volvo's Roll-Over Protection System (ROPS) has been designed to reduce the risk of the car overturning and to provide the best possible pro­tection in the event of such an accident.
The system consists of two parts, a preventive stabilising system and a protective system.
The stabilising system Roll Stability Control (RSC) minimises the risk of overturning, for example during sudden evasive manoeuvres or if the car skids.
The RSC system uses a sensor which registers changes in the car's lateral inclination angle. This information is used to calculate the risk of the car overturning. If a risk exists then the ESC system (p. 183) engages, engine torque is reduced and one or more wheels are braked until the car has regained its stability.
If a rollover accident still occurs, the protective system intervenes and, depending on the situa­tion, may activate the car's seatbelt tensioner (p. 31) and inflatable curtains (p. 39).
WARNING
Under normal driving conditions, the RSC sys­tem improves the car's road safety, but this must not be seen as an opportunity to increase speed. Always follow the normal pre­cautions for safe driving.

Safety mode - attempting to start the car

If the car is set in safety mode (p. 42) then an attempt to start the car can be made if every­thing seems normal and the absence of fuel leakage has been checked.
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.
Remove the remote control key and open the driver's door. If a message is now shown to the effect that the ignition is on, press the start but­ton. Then close the door and reinsert the remote control key. The car's electronics will now try to reset themselves to normal mode. Then try to start the car.
If the message
Safety mode See manual is
still shown on the display then the car must not be driven or towed but a vehicle recovery service (p. 318) used instead. Even if the car appears to be driveable, hidden damage may make the car impossible to control once moving.
WARNING
Never, under any circumstances, attempt to restart the car if it smells of fuel when the
Safety mode See manual message is dis-
played. Leave the car at once.
WARNING
If the car is in safety mode it must not be towed. It must be transported from its loca­tion. Volvo recommends that it is transported to an authorised Volvo workshop.

General information on child safety

Volvo has child safety equipment (child seats, booster cushions & attachment devices) which is designed for fitting in this particular car.
Using Volvo's child safety equipment, the opti­mum conditions are obtained for the child to travel safely in the car. In addition, the child safety equipment fits well and is simple to use.
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 recommends that children travel in rear­facing child seats until as late an age as possible, at least up to 3-4 years of age, and then in front­facing booster cushions/child seats until the child is 140 cm tall.
NOTE
Legal provisions about the type of child seat that must be used for children of different ages and heights vary from country to coun­try. Check what does apply.
NOTE
In the event of questions when fitting child safety products, contact the manufacturer for clearer instructions.

Child safety locks

Child seats - upper mounting points

The car is equipped with upper mounting points for child seats (p. 45). These mounting points are located on the parcel shelf and are con­cealed by plastic covers. Bend aside the plastic covers to access each respective mounting point.
For cars with folding head restraints on the out­side seats the head restraints should be folded to facilitate installation.
The upper mounting points are primarily intended for use with front-facing child seats. Volvo recom­mends that small children should sit in rear-fac­ing child seats for as long as possible.
For detailed information on how the child seat should be tensioned in the upper mounting points, see the seat manufacturer's instructions.
WARNING
The child seat's straps must always be drawn through the hole in the head restraint leg before they are tensioned at the attachment point.

Eco guide & Power guide*

Eco guide and Power guide are two combined instrument panel (p. 62) instruments which help the driver to drive the car with optimum driving economy.
The car also stores statistics of journeys made, which can be viewed in the form of a block dia­gram; see Trip computer - trip statistics* (p. 118).

Eco guide

This instrument provides an indication of how economically the car is being driven.
To view this function, select the theme "Eco"; see Digital combined instrument panel - overview (p. 63).
Instantaneous value
Average value
Instantaneous value
The instantaneous value is shown here - the higher the reading on the scale, the better.
The instantaneous value is calculated based on speed, engine speed, engine power utilised plus use of the foot brake.
Optimum speed (50-80 km/h (30-50 mph)) and low engine speeds are encouraged. The pointers fall during acceleration and braking.
Very low instantaneous values illuminate the red zone on the meter (with a short delay), which means poor driving economy and hence should be avoided.
Average value
The average value slowly follows the instantane­ous value and describes how the car has been driven most recently. The higher the pointers on the scale, the better the economy achieved by the driver.

Power guide

This instrument shows the relationship between how much power (Power) is being taken from the engine and how much power is available.
To view this function, select the theme "Performance"; see Digital combined instrument panel - overview (p. 63).
Available engine power
Engine power utilised
Available engine power
The smaller, upper pointer shows the available engine power9. The higher the reading on the scale, the more power is available in the current gear.
Engine power utilised
The larger, lower pointer shows the engine power utilised9. The higher the reading on the scale, the more power is being taken from the engine.
A large gap between the two pointers indicates a large power reserve.
9
Power is dependent on engine speed.

Tunnel detection*

Tunnel detection changes the lighting from day­time running lights to dipped beam when the car is driven into a tunnel.
The tunnel detection function is available in cars with rain sensor*. The sensor detects the entrance to a tunnel and resets the lighting from daytime running lights to dipped beam. Approx. 20 seconds after the car has left the tunnel, the lighting returns to daytime running lights. If the car is driven into another tunnel within this time period then dipped beam is kept switched on. This avoids repeated changes to the car's light­ing.

Active main beam*

Active main beam function detects the headlamp beams from oncoming traffic or the rear lights of vehicles in front, and switches the lighting from main beam to dipped beam. The lighting returns to main beam when the incoming light has stop­ped.

Active main beam - AHB

Active main beam (Active High Beam - AHB) is a function which uses a camera sensor at the top edge of the windscreen to detect the headlamp beams from oncoming traffic or the rear lights of vehicles in front, and then switches from main beam to dipped beam. The function can also take streetlights into account.
Main beam is reactivated when the camera sen­sor no longer sees any oncoming vehicles or vehicles ahead.
Car with halogen headlamps
The lighting returns to main beam about a sec­ond after the camera sensor no longer detects the headlamp beams from oncoming traffic or the rear lights from vehicles in front.
Car with active Xenon headlamps
If the active main beam has the on/off functional­ity21 then the lighting returns to main beam about a second after the camera sensor no longer
detects the headlamp beams from oncoming traffic or the rear lights from vehicles in front.
If the active main beam has adaptive functional­ity21 then, unlike what happens during conven­tional dimming, the light beam continues to illu­minate with main beam on both sides of oncom­ing traffic or vehicles ahead - only the part of the light beam that points directly to the vehicle is dimmed.
Adaptive functionality: Dipped beam directly toward oncoming vehicles, but continued main beam on both sides of the vehicle.
The lighting returns to full main beam about a second after the camera sensor no longer detects the headlamp beams from oncoming traffic or the rear lights from vehicles in front.
