Owner information

Your car is equipped with a display screen* where you can find information on how your car works. This owner's manual is a supple­ment to the information and contains impor­tant text, the latest updates, as well as instructions that can be useful when you, for practical reasons, cannot read the on-screen information.
Changing the display language may mean that some information does not correspond to national or local laws and regulations.
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 on the screen and in the prin­ted manual 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. 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.

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

Options/accessories

All types of option/accessory are marked with an asterisk*.
In addition to standard equipment, the owner's manual also describes options (fac­tory fitted equipment) and certain accessories (retrofitted extra equipment).
The equipment described in the owner's manual is not available in all cars - they have different 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 stand­ard or an option/accessory, contact a Volvo dealer.

Special texts

WARNING
Warning texts appear if there is a risk of injury.
IMPORTANT
"Important" texts appear if there is a risk of damage.
NOTE
NOTE texts give advice or tips that facili­tate the use of e.g. features and functions.

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 high­lighted 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 message texts on the information display (e.g.
Audio settings).

Decals

The car contains different types of decal which are designed to convey important information in a simple and clear manner. The decals in the car have the following descend­ing degree of importance for the warning/ information.

Warning for personal injury

G031590
Black ISO symbols on yellow warning field, white text/image on black message field. Used to indicate the presence of danger which, if the warning is ignored, may result in serious personal injury or fatality.

Risk of property damage

G031592
White ISO symbols and white text/image on black or blue warning field and message field. Used to indicate the presence of danger which, if the warning is ignored, may result in damage to property.

Information

G031593
White ISO symbols and white text/image on black message field.
NOTE
It is not intended that the decals illustrated in the owner's manual should be exact replicas of those in the car. They are included to show their approximate appearance and location in the car. The information that applies to your particular car is available on the respective decals for your car.

Procedure lists

Procedures where action must be taken in a certain sequence are numbered in the owner's manual.
When there is a series of illustrations for step-by-step instructions each step is numbered in the same way as the corres­ponding illustration.
There are numbered lists with letters adjacent to the series of illustrations where the order of the instructions is not significant.
Arrows appear numbered and unnum­bered and are used to illustrate a move­ment.
Arrows with letters are used to clarify a movement when the reciprocal order is of no relevance.
If there is no series of illustrations for step-by­step instructions then the different steps are numbered with normal numbers.

Position lists

Red circles containing a number are used in overview images where different com­ponents are pointed out. The number recurs in the position list featured in con­nection with the illustration that describes the item.

Bulleted lists

A bulleted list is used when there is a list of points in the owner's manual.
Example:
Coolant
Engine oil

Recording data

Certain information about the vehicle's opera­tion and functionality, and any incidents, are recorded in the car.
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 and extra equipment can nega­tively affect the car's electronic system.
Certain accessories only function when asso­ciated software is installed in the car's com­puter system. Volvo therefore recommends that you always contact an authorised Volvo workshop before installing accessories or extra equipment which are connected to or affect the electrical system.
Heat-reflecting windscreen*
Areas where IR film is not applied.
Dimensions
A 40 mm
B 80 mm
The windscreen is equipped with a heat­reflecting film (IR) that reduces the solar heat radiation into the passenger compartment.
The positioning of electronic equipment, such as a transponder, behind a glass surface with heat-reflecting film may affect its function and performance.
For the optimal function of electronic equip­ment, it should be positioned on the part of the windscreen with no heat-reflecting film (see the highlighted area in the above illustra­tion).
Change of ownership for cars with Volvo On Call*
If the car is equipped with Volvo On Call, VOC it is important to change the owner of the service.
VOC is a supplemental service that consists of safety, security and comfort services. In the event of change of ownership it is impor­tant to change the owner of the service.

Closing the VOC service

Contact a Volvo dealer in the event of change of ownership in order to close the VOC serv­ice.
In the event of change of ownership it is important to reset personal settings in the car to the original factory settings2, see Change of ownership.

Starting the VOC service

It is very important that the VOC service changes owner so that the previous owner's ability to use services in the car is stopped. Contact a Volvo dealer in the event of a change of ownership.

Volvo Cars' environmental philosophy

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.
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 resource-efficient 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.

01 Introduction

* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
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 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. Volvo makes 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 intervals recom­mended in the Service and Warranty Booklet.
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 Eco guide (p. 60), Economical driving (p. 300) and Fuel con­sumption (p. 398).

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.

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.
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 (p. 24) their seatbelt by means of an audio and visual reminder (p. 26).

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.
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 up towards the shoulder.
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 type­approved and intended for installation in the same position as the replaced seatbelt.

Seatbelt - pregnancy

Seatbelt (p. 23) 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. 69) and steer­ing wheel (p. 73) 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. 24) 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. 56).
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. 23) 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 auto-
matically after driving for approximately 30 seconds or after pressing the indicator stalk (p. 96) OK button.
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 audible reminder will sound for the first 6 seconds.

Seatbelt tensioner

All the seatbelts (p. 23) 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.

The warning symbol in the combined instru­ment panel illuminates when the remote con­trol key is in key position II (p. 67). The sym­bol is extinguished after approx. 6 seconds provided the airbag system is fault-free.
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, the IC system or some other fault in the system. Volvo rec­ommends that you contact an authorised Volvo workshop immediately.
If the warning symbol malfunctions, the warn­ing triangle illuminates and

Airbag system

In the event of a frontal collision the airbag system helps to protect the driver and pas­senger from injuries to head, face and chest.
G018665
Airbag system, left-hand drive car.
G018666
Airbag system, 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. 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, occurs 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.
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.

Driver airbag

To supplement the protection afforded by the seatbelt (p. 23) the car is equipped on the driver's side with an airbag (p. 28).
This airbag is fitted into the centre of the steering wheel. The steering wheel is marked
AIRBAG.
WARNING
The seatbelts and airbags interact. If the belt is not used or is used incorrectly, this may diminish the protection provided by the airbag in the event of a collision.
