you can display information about your vehicle's
features and functions. The printed owner's
manual supplements the on-board information
and contains important texts, the latest updates
and instructions that can be useful in situations
when it is not practical to read the information on
the screen.

information could mean that some of the information displayed may not comply with national
or local statutes and regulations.
NOTE
•
Do not export your Volvo to another
country before investigating that country's applicable safety and exhaust emission requirements. In some cases it may
be difficult or impossible to comply with
these requirements. Modifications to the
emission control system(s) may render
your Volvo not certifiable for legal operation in the U.S., Canada and other countries.

on the latest product information available at the time of publication. Please note
that some vehicles may be equipped differently, depending on market-specific

Crash event data
This vehicle is equipped with an event data
recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR is
to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an air bag deployment or hitting
a road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how a vehicle's systems performed.
The EDR is designed to record data related to
vehicle dynamics and safety systems for a short
period of time, typically 30 seconds or less. The
EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such
data as:
•
How various systems in your vehicle were
operating;
•
Whether or not the driver and passenger
safety belts were buckled/fastened;
•
How far (if at all) the driver was depressing
the accelerator and/or brake pedal; and,
•
How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in which crashes and
injuries occur.
EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a
non-trivial crash situation occurs; no data are
recorded by the EDR under normal driving conditions and the EDR never registers who is driving
the vehicle or the location of a crash or a near
crash-like situation. However, other parties, such
as law enforcement, could combine the EDR data
with the type of personally identifying data rou-

INTRODUCTION

tinely acquired during a crash investigation. To
read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment
is required, and access to the vehicle or the EDR
is needed.
Furthermore, your vehicle is equipped with a
number of computers whose task is to continuously control and monitor the vehicle’s operation.
They can also register some of this information
during normal driving conditions, most importantly
if they detect a fault relating to the vehicle’s operation and functionality or upon activation of the
vehicle’s active safety systems (e.g. City Safety
and the auto-brake function). Some of the registered information is required by technicians when
carrying out service and maintenance to enable
them to diagnose and rectify any faults that have
occurred in the vehicle and to enable Volvo to fulfill legal and other regulatory requirements. Information thus registered in the vehicle is registered
in the vehicle’s computers until the vehicle is
serviced or repaired. In addition to the above, the
registered information may – on an aggregated
basis – be used for research and product development purposes in order to continuously
improve the safety and quality of Volvo vehicles.

Volvo Structural Parts Statement
Volvo has always been and continues to be a
leader in automotive safety.
Volvo engineers and manufactures vehicles
designed to help protect vehicle occupants in the
event of a collision.
Volvos are designed to absorb the impact of a
collision. This energy absorption system including,
but not limited to, structural components such as
bumper reinforcement bars, bumper energy
absorbers, frames, rails, fender aprons, A-pillars,
B-pillars and body panels must work together to
maintain cabin integrity and protect the vehicle
occupants.
The supplemental restraint system including but
not limited to air bags, side curtain air bags, and
deployment sensors work together with the
above components to provide proper timing for
air bag deployment.
Due to the above, Volvo Car USA, LLC does not
support the use of aftermarket, alternative or anything other than original Volvo parts for collision
repair.
In addition Volvo does not support the use or reuse of structural components from an existing
vehicle that has been previously damaged.
Although these parts may appear equivalent, it is
difficult to tell if the parts have been previously
replaced with non-OE parts or if the part has
been damaged as a result of a prior collision. The

Volvo and the environment
Volvo is committed to the well being of its customers. As a natural part of this commitment, we
care about the environment in which we all live.
Concern for the environment means an everyday
involvement in reducing our environmental
impact.
Volvo's environmental activities are based on a
holistic view, which means we consider the overall environmental impact of a product throughout
its complete life cycle. In this context, design, production, product use, and recycling are all important considerations. In production, Volvo has
partly or completely phased out several chemicals
including CFCs, lead chromates, asbestos, and
cadmium; and reduced the number of chemicals
used in our plants 50% since 1991.
Volvo was the first in the world to introduce into
production a three-way catalytic converter with a
Lambda sond, now called the heated oxygen sensor, in 1976. The current version of this highly
efficient system reduces emissions of harmful
substances (CO, HC, NOx) from the exhaust pipe
by approximately 95 – 99% and the search to
eliminate the remaining emissions continues.
Volvo is the only automobile manufacturer to
offer CFC-free retrofit kits for the air conditioning
system of all models as far back as the 1975
model 240. Advanced electronic engine controls
and cleaner fuels are bringing us closer to our
goal. In addition to continuous environmental
refinement of conventional gasoline-powered
internal combustion engines, Volvo is actively
looking at advanced technology alternative-fuel
vehicles.
When you drive a Volvo, you become our partner
in the work to lessen the car's impact on the
environment. To reduce your vehicle's environmental impact, you can:
•
Maintain proper air pressure in your tires.
Tests have shown decreased fuel economy
with improperly inflated tires.
•
Follow the recommended maintenance
schedule in your Warranty and Service
Records Information booklet.
•
Drive at a constant speed whenever possible.
•
See a trained and qualified Volvo service
technician as soon as possible for inspection
if the check engine (malfunction indicator)
light illuminates, or stays on after the vehicle
has started.
•
Properly dispose of any vehicle-related waste
such as used motor oil, used batteries, brake
pads, etc.
•
When cleaning your vehicle, please use genuine Volvo car care products. All Volvo car
care products are formulated to be environmentally friendly.

Important warnings
Please keep the following warnings in mind
when operating/servicing your vehicle.
Driver distraction
A driver has a responsibility to do everything possible to ensure his or her own safety and the
safety of passengers in the vehicle and others
sharing the roadway. Avoiding distractions is part
of that responsibility.
Driver distraction results from driver activities that
are not directly related to controlling the vehicle
in the driving environment. Your new Volvo is, or
can be, equipped with many feature-rich entertainment and communication systems. These
include hands-free cellular telephones, navigation
systems, and multipurpose audio systems. You
may also own other portable electronic devices
for your own convenience. When used properly
and safely, they enrich the driving experience.
Improperly used, any of these could cause a distraction.
For all of these systems, we want to provide the
following warning that reflects the strong Volvo
concern for your safety. Never use these devices
or any feature of your vehicle in a way that distracts you from the task of driving safely. Distraction can lead to a serious accident. In addition to
this general warning, we offer the following guidance regarding specific newer features that may
be found in your vehicle:
WARNING
•
Never use a hand-held cellular telephone
while driving. Some jurisdictions prohibit
cellular telephone use by a driver while
the vehicle is moving.
•
If your vehicle is equipped with a navigation system, set and make changes to
your travel itinerary only with the vehicle
parked.
•
Never program your audio system while
the vehicle is moving. Program radio presets with the vehicle parked, and use your
programmed presets to make radio use
quicker and simpler.
•
Never use portable computers or personal digital assistants while the vehicle
is moving.
Accessory installation
•
We strongly recommend that Volvo owners
install only genuine, Volvo-approved accessories, and that accessory installations be
performed only by a trained and qualified
Volvo service technician.
•
Genuine Volvo accessories are tested to
ensure compatibility with the performance,
safety, and emission systems in your vehicle.
Additionally, a trained and qualified Volvo
service technician knows where accessories
may and may not be safely installed in your
Volvo. In all cases, please consult a trained
and qualified Volvo service technician before
installing any accessory in or on your vehicle.
•
Accessories that have not been approved by
Volvo may or may not be specifically tested
for compatibility with your vehicle. Additionally, an inexperienced installer may not be
familiar with some of your car's systems.
•
Any of your car's performance and safety
systems could be adversely affected if you
install accessories that Volvo has not tested,
or if you allow accessories to be installed by
someone unfamiliar with your vehicle.
•
Damage caused by unapproved or improperly
installed accessories may not be covered by
your new vehicle warranty. See your Warranty
and Service Records Information booklet for
more warranty information. Volvo assumes no
responsibility for death, injury, or expenses
that may result from the installation of nongenuine accessories.

degree of competence in specific areas. Besides
passing exams, each technician must also have
worked in the field for two or more years before a
certificate is issued. These professional technicians are best able to analyze vehicle problems
and perform the necessary maintenance procedures to keep your Volvo at peak operating condition.

Occupant safety
Safety is Volvo's cornerstone.
Volvo's concern for safety
Our concern for safety dates back to 1927 when
the first Volvo rolled off the production line.
Three-point seat belts (a Volvo invention), safety
cages, and energy-absorbing impact zones were
designed into Volvo vehicles long before it was
fashionable or required by government regulation.
We will not compromise our commitment to
safety. We continue to seek out new safety features and to refine those already in our vehicles.
You can help. We would appreciate hearing your
suggestions about improving automobile safety.
We also want to know if you ever have a safety
concern with your vehicle. Call us in the U.S. at:
1-800-458-1552 or in Canada at:
1-800-663-8255.
Occupant safety reminders
How safely you drive doesn't depend on how old
you are but rather on:
•
How well you see.
•
Your ability to concentrate.
•
How quickly you make decisions under
stress to avoid an accident.
The following suggestions are intended to help
you cope with the ever changing traffic environment.
•
Never drink and drive.
•
If you are taking any medication, consult your
physician about its potential effects on your
driving abilities.
•
Take a driver-retraining course.
•
Have your eyes checked regularly.
•
Keep your windshield and headlights clean.
•
Replace wiper blades when they start to
leave streaks.
•
Take into account the traffic, road, and
weather conditions, particularly with regard to
stopping distance.
•
Never send text messages while driving.
•
Refrain from using or minimize the use of a
cell phone while driving.

SAFETY

Seat belts – general
Seat belts should always be worn by all occupants of your vehicle. Children should be properly restrained, using an infant, car, or booster
seat determined by age, weight and height.
Volvo also believes no child should sit in the
front seat of a vehicle.
Adjusting the seat belt
Most states and provinces make it mandatory for
occupants of a vehicle to use seat belts.
Seat belt pretensioners
All seat belts are equipped with pretensioners
that reduce slack in the belts. These pretensioners are triggered in situations where the front or
side impact airbags deploy, and in certain impacts
from the rear. The front seat belts also include a
tension reducing device which, in the event of a
collision, limits the peak forces exerted by the
seat belt on the occupant.
Seat belt maintenance
Check periodically that the seat belts are in good
condition. Use water and a mild detergent for
cleaning. Check seat belt mechanism function as
follows: attach the seat belt and pull rapidly on
the strap.
WARNING
Never use a seat belt for more than one
occupant. Never wear the shoulder portion of
the belt under the arm, behind the back or
otherwise out of position. Such use could
cause injury in the event of an accident. As
seat belts lose much of their strength when
exposed to violent stretching, they should be
replaced after any collision, even if they
appear to be undamaged.
WARNING
•
Never repair the belt yourself; have this
work done by a trained and qualified
Volvo service technician only.
•
Any device used to induce slack into the
shoulder belt portion of the three-point
belt system will have a detrimental effect
on the amount of protection available to
you in the event of a collision.
•
The seat back should not be tilted too far
back. The shoulder belt must be taut in
order to function properly.
•
Do not use child safety seats or child
booster cushions/backrests in the front
passenger's seat. We also recommend
that children who have outgrown these
devices sit in the rear seat with the seat
belt properly fastened.
