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.

Volvo Car Corporation
Option
All types of option/accessory are marked with
an asterisk*.
In addition to standard equipment, this 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 features and functions for example.
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 high-
lighted 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

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.

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. Volvo
therefore recommends 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
10
* 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
Page 13
Introduction
Volvo and the environment
* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
11
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 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 286 and
376.
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
The Forest Stewardship Council symbol
shows that the paper pulp in this publication
comes from FSC
certified forests or other
controlled sources.

General information
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 belt out slowly and secure it by pressing its locking tab into the seatbelt buckle. A
loud "click" indicates that the belt has locked.
Correctly fitted seatbelt.
Incorrectly fitted seatbelt. The belt must rest on
the shoulder.
Seatbelt height adjustment. Press the button and
move the belt vertically. Position the belt as high
as possible without it chafing against your throat.
The locking tab at the centre rear seat only fits
into the intended seatbelt buckle.
Releasing the seatbelt
Press the red button on the seatbelt buckle and
then let the belt retract. If the seatbelt does not
retract fully, feed it 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.
Page 17
01 Safety
Seatbelts
01
15
Make sure that you:
•
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 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 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.
Seatbelts and pregnancy
G020998
The seatbelt should always be worn during
pregnancy. But it is crucial that it be worn in the
correct way. 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
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). 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 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
appears in the information display 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's OK button.
•
Provides a warning if one of the rear seatbelts is unfastened during travel. This
warning takes the form of a message on
the information display 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 information display, see page 69, shows
which seatbelts are in use. This information is
always available.
Seatbelt tensioner
The seatbelts on the driver’s side, the passenger side and at the outer rear seats are fitted
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 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.

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 airbag system, the belt
tensioner system, SIPS, the IC system or
some other fault in the system. Volvo recommends that you contact an authorised
Volvo workshop immediately.
As well as the warning symbol, a message may
appear on the information display in appropriate cases. If the warning symbol malfunctions,

01 Safety
Airbags

18
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 sensors react differently depending on
the course of the collision and whether or
not the seatbelts on the driver and passenger side are used.
It is therefore possible that only one (or
none) of the airbags may inflate in a collision. The airbag system senses the force of
the collision on the car and adapts accordingly so that one or more airbags are
deployed.
Individual airbags are also adapted to the
collision force to which the vehicle is subjected.
Airbags on the driver's side
The car has two airbags to supplement the
protection afforded by the seatbelt on the driver's side. One of the airbags is folded up in the
centre of the steering wheel (see the illustration
on page 17); the steering wheel is labelled
AIRBAG.
Knee airbag on the driver's side in a left-handdrive car.
The second airbag (at knee level) is fitted in the
lower part of the instrument panel on the driver's side; this panel is labelled AIRBAG.
WARNING

is not used or is used incorrectly, this may
diminish the protection provided by the airbags in the event of a collision.

The car has an airbag to supplement the protection afforded by the seatbelt on the passenger side. It is folded up into a compartment
above the glovebox. Its cover panel 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.
To minimise the risk of injury if the airbag
deploys, passengers must sit as upright as
possible with their feet on the floor and
backs against the backrest. Seatbelts must
be secured.
WARNING
Do not put objects in front of or above the
dashboard where the passenger airbag is
located.
WARNING
Never place a child in a child seat or on a
booster cushion in the front seat if the airbag
is activated.
Never allow anybody to stand or sit in front
of the front passenger seat.
No one shorter than 140 cm should ever sit
in the front passenger seat if the airbag is
activated.
Failure to follow the advice given above can
endanger life.

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.
The SIPS bag system consists of two main
components, side airbag and sensors. 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 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.
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
1
passenger air-
bag.
Location
Driver's seat, left-hand drive.
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.

Inflatable Curtain (IC)
01
24
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 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.

Protection against whiplash injury –
WHIPS
The whiplash protection system (WHIPS) consists of energy absorbing backrests and specially designed head restraints in 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.
Do not obstruct the WHIPS system
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.
Page 28
01 Safety
WHIPS
01
26
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 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 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 airbags and belt tensioner system 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.

Pedestrian airbag (Pedestrian Airbag)
01
29
Properties
The airbag (Pedestrian Airbag) is fitted under
the bonnet near the windscreen. In the event of
a frontal collision with a pedestrian, the sensors
in the front bumper react and the airbag inflates
if required based on the force of the impact.
The sensors are active at a speed of approx.
20-50 km/h and an ambient temperature
between -20 and +70°C.
If the airbag is activated (Pedestrian Airbag):
•
the rear part of the bonnet is raised and
locked in this position
•
the brake system is prepared for the
upcoming emergency braking.
WARNING
Do not fit any accessories or change anything in the front. Incorrect intervention at
the front may cause incorrect function in the
system and lead to serious injury and damage to the car.
Volvo recommends that genuine wiper arms
are used and that you only use genuine
parts for them.
Handling after activation
If any of the other airbags in the passenger
compartment were activated, the car remains
in safety mode, see page 28.
If only the pedestrian airbag was activated:
1. Move the car to a safe location as close as
possible.
2. Fold the airbag following the instructions
under the next heading "Folding the airbag
(Pedestrian Airbag)".
3. Seek the nearest 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.
NOTE
In the event of questions when fitting child
safety products, contact the manufacturer
for clearer instructions.

Keyless lock and ignition system*
General
Below is a description of remote control keys
with Keyless drive and Keyless start functions.
For cars with a Keyless start function, the car
can be started without the remote control key
being inserted in the ignition lock. For cars with
a Keyless drive function, the car can be locked
and unlocked without pressing a button on the
remote control key, and also be started without
the key being inserted in the ignition lock. The
system makes it easier and more convenient to
open the car, e.g. when your hands are full.
Both of the car's remote control keys have
Keyless function. It is possible to order more
remote control keys, see page 42.
The car's electrical system can be set to 3 different levels (key positions) - 0, I and II - with
the remote control key, see page 79.
Remote control key range
1
In order to open a door or the tailgate without
pressing a button on the remote control key, a
remote control key must be approx. 1.5 m from
the car door handle or tailgate. This means that
the person who wishes to lock or unlock a door
must have the remote control key with him or
her. It is not possible to lock or unlock a door
if the remote control key is on the opposite side
of the car.
The red rings in the preceding illustration indicate the range covered by the system's antennas.
If all remote control keys are removed from the
car when the engine is running or key position
I or II is active (see page 79) and a door has
been opened and then closed, the information
display shows a warning message while
sounding an audible reminder at the same
time.
When the remote control key has been
returned to the car, the warning message goes
off and the audible reminder ceases once
either/or:
•
a door has been opened and closed
•
the remote control key has been inserted
in the ignition lock
•
The OK button on the direction indicator
stalk.
Safe operation of the remote control key
with keyless function
If a remote control key with keyless function is
left in the car, it is deactivated temporarily
when the car is locked. This prevents unauthorised entry.
However, if someone breaks into the car and
finds the remote control key, it is reactivated. It
is therefore important to handle all remote control keys with great care.
IMPORTANT
When the door has been unlocked using the
key blade and is opened, the alarm is triggered.
Interference to remote control key
function
Electromagnetic fields and screening can interfere with the Keyless function.
1
Does not apply to cars with keyless start
Page 53
02 Locks and alarm
Keyless*
02
* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
51
NOTE
Do not place/store the remote control key
with keyless function near a mobile phone
or metal object - no closer than 10-15 cm.
If interference is experienced nonetheless, use
the remote control key and the key blade like a
traditional remote control key, see page 44.
Locking
2
Cars with the Keyless-drive system have a touchsensitive area on the outer handle of the doors and
a rubberised button next to the tailgate's rubberised pressure plate.
Lock the doors and the tailgate by grasping
one of the door handles or pressing the smaller
of the tailgate's two rubberised buttons - the
lock indicator in the windscreen confirms that
locking has been completed by starting to
flash, see page 43.
All doors and the tailgate must be closed
before the car can be locked - otherwise the
car is not locked.
NOTE
In cars with automatic gearbox selectors,
the gear selector must be set to the P posi-
tion; otherwise the car can be neither locked
nor alarmed.
Unlocking
2
Unlocking with Keyless-drive takes place when
a hand grasps a door handle or the tailgate's
rubberised pressure plate is actuated - open
the door or tailgate as normal.
NOTE
The door handles normally register a hand
that takes hold of the handle, but with thick
gloves on or after a very quick hand movement a second attempt may be required, or
with the glove taken off.
Unlocking with the key blade
Hole for key blade - to loosen the cover.
If central locking cannot be activated with the
remote control key - e.g. if the batteries are
discharged - then the left-hand front door can
be opened using the remote control key's
removable key blade (see page 46).
To access the lock cylinder, the door handle's
plastic cover must be removed - this is also
done with the key blade:
1. Press the key blade approx. 1 cm straight
up into the hole on the underside of the
door handle/cover - do not prize.
> The plastic cover loosens automatically
by means of the torque when the blade

is pushed straight up and into the opening.
2. Then insert the key blade in the lock cylinder and unlock the door.
3. Refit the plastic cover after unlocking.
NOTE
When the front left door is unlocked using
the key blade and is opened, the alarm is
triggered. It is switched off by inserting the
remote control key in the ignition switch, see
page 61.
Key memory3 - driver’s seat, door
mirrors and steering force
Memory function in remote control key
with keyless function
If several people each with a remote control
key approach the car, then the settings for seat
and mirrors are implemented for the person
who opens the driver's door.
After the driver's door has been opened by
person A with remote control key A, but person
B with remote control key B is to drive, the settings can be changed as follows:
•
Standing by the driver's door, or sitting
behind the steering wheel, person B
presses their remote control key's unlock
button, see page 44.
•
Select one of three possible memories for
seat adjustment with seat button 1-3, see
page 82.
•
Adjust seat and mirrors manually, see
page 82 and 104.
•
Adjust steering force in the MY CAR menu
system; see see page 205.
Lock settings
The Keyless-drive function can be adapted by
indicating in the menu system MY CAR which
doors are to be unlocked, under Car settings
Lock settings Keyless entry - there
select between
All doors unlock, Any door,

From the outside
The remote control key can lock/unlock all
doors, the tailgate and the fuel filler flap. Different sequences for unlocking can be
selected, see "Unlocking with the remote control key" page 44.
In order that the lock sequence can be activated, the driver's door must be closed - if any
of the other doors or the tailgate is open, then
it/they is/are locked and the alarm is activated
only when it/they are closed. With the Keyless* system all the doors and tailgate must be
closed.
NOTE
Be aware of the risk of locking the remote
control key in the car.
If it is not possible to lock/unlock with the
remote control key, the battery may be discharged - lock or unlock the left-hand front
door with the detachable key blade, see
page 46.
NOTE
Remember that the alarm is triggered when
the door is opened after being unlocked
with the key blade - the alarm is switched
off when the remote control key is inserted
into the ignition switch.
WARNING
Be aware of the risk of being locked in the
car when it is locked from the outside using
the remote control key - it is then not possible to open any of the doors from the
inside with the door controls. For more information, see page 58, Deadlocks.
Automatic relocking
If none of the doors or the tailgate is opened
within 2 minutes of unlocking, all are locked
again automatically. This function reduces the
risk that the car is left unlocked unintentionally.
(For cars with alarm, see page 61.)
Manual locking
In certain situations the car must be lockable
manually, e.g. in the event of power failure.
The left-hand front door can be locked with its
lock cylinder and the remote control key's
detachable key blade, see page 51.
Other doors have no lock cylinders and instead
have a lock switch on the end of each door
which must be depressed using the key blade
- they are then mechanically locked/blocked to
prevent them being opened from outside. The
doors can still be opened from the inside.

General
Activated alarm is triggered if:
•
a door, the bonnet or the tailgate is opened
•
a movement is detected in the passenger
compartment (if fitted with a movement
detector*)
•
the car is raised or towed away (if fitted
with a tilt detector*)
•
the battery's cable is disconnected
•
the siren is disconnected.
If there is a fault in the alarm system, the information display shows a message. In which
case, contact a workshop - an authorised
Volvo workshop is recommended.
NOTE
The movement sensors trigger an alarm in
the event of movement in the passenger
compartment - air currents are also registered. For this reason the alarm is triggered
if the car is left with a window open or if the
passenger compartment heater is used.
To avoid this: Close the window when leaving the car. If the car's integrated passenger
compartment heater (or a portable electric
heater) shall be used - direct the airflow from
the air vents so that they are not pointing
upwards in the passenger compartment.
NOTE
Do not attempt to repair or alter components in the alarm system yourself. Any such
attempts may affect the terms of the insurance.
Alarm indicator
Same LED as lock indicator, see page 43.
A red LED on the instrument panel indicates
the alarm system's status:
•
LED not lit – Alarm not armed
•
The LED flashes once every other second
– Alarm is armed
•
The LED flashes rapidly after disarming the
alarm (and until the remote control key is
inserted in the ignition switch and key position I is selected) – Alarm has been triggered.
Arming the alarm
– Press the remote control key lock button.
Deactivate the alarm
– Press the remote control key unlock but-
ton.
Deactivating a triggered alarm
– Press the remote control key unlock button

doors or the tailgate is opened within 2
minutes, then the alarm is automatically rearmed. The car is relocked at the same time.
Automatic alarm activation
In certain countries, the alarm is activated after
a certain delay if the driver's door was opened
and closed but the car was not re-locked.
Remote control key not working
If the alarm cannot be deactivated with the
remote control key, e.g. if the key's battery is

detachable key blade - see page 51.
> The alarm is triggered, the direction indi-
cators flash and the siren sounds.
2. Insert the remote control key in the ignition
switch.
> The alarm is deactivated.
Alarm signals
When the alarm is triggered, the following happens:
•
A siren sounds for 30 seconds or until the
alarm is switched off. The siren has its own
battery and works independently of the car
battery.
•
The direction indicators flash for 5 minutes
or until the alarm is switched off.
Reduced alarm level
To avoid accidental triggering of the alarm e.g. if a dog is left in a locked car or during
transport on a car train or car ferry - temporarily
deactivate the movement and tilt detectors.
The procedure is the same as with the temporary disengaging of deadlocks, see page 58.

If the symbol illuminates then it may be due to
a fault in the car's emissions system. Drive to
a workshop for checking. Volvo recommends
that you seek assistance from an authorised
Volvo workshop.
ABS fault
If this symbol illuminates then the system is not
working. The car's regular brake system continues to work, but without the ABS function.

Rear fog lamp on
This symbol illuminates when the rear fog lamp
is on. The rear fog lamp is made up of two
bulbs.
Stability system
A flashing symbol indicates that the stability
system is operating. If the symbol illuminates
with constant glow then there is a fault in the
system.
Stability system, Sport mode
Sport mode allows for a more active driving
experience. The system then detects whether
the accelerator pedal, steering wheel movements and cornering are more active than in
normal driving and then allows controlled skidding of the rear section up to a certain level
before it intervenes and stabilises the car.
Engine preheater (diesel)
This symbol illuminates during engine preheating. Preheating mostly takes place due to low
temperature.
Low level in fuel tank
When the symbol illuminates the level in the
fuel tank is low, refuel as soon as possible.
Information, read display text
When one of the car's systems does not
behave as intended, this information symbol
illuminates and a text appears on the information display. The message text is cleared with
the OK button, see page 200, or it disappears
automatically after a time (time depending on
which function is indicated). The information
symbol can also illuminate in conjunction with
other symbols.

Parking brake applied
This symbol illuminates with a constant glow
when the parking brake is applied. The symbol
is illuminated during application. For more
information, see page 131.
Airbags – SRS
If this symbol remains illuminated or illuminates
while driving, it means a fault has been
detected in the seatbelt buckle, SRS, SIPS, or
IC systems. Drive immediately to a workshop
to have the system checked. Volvo recommends that you seek assistance from an
authorised Volvo workshop.
Seatbelt reminder
This symbol illuminates if someone in a front
seat has not put on their seatbelt or if someone
in a rear seat has taken off their seatbelt.
Alternator not charging
This symbol illuminates during driving if a fault
has occurred in the electrical system. Visit a
workshop. Volvo recommends that you seek
assistance from an authorised Volvo workshop.
Fault in brake system
If this symbol illuminates, the brake fluid level
may be too low. Stop the car in a safe place
and check the level in the brake fluid reservoir,
see page 333.
If the brake and ABS symbols illuminate at the
same time, there may be a fault in the brake
force distribution system.
1. Stop the car in a safe place and turn off the
engine.
2. Restart the engine.
•
If both symbols extinguish, continue
driving.
•
If the symbols remain illuminated, check
the level in the brake fluid reservoir, see
page 333. If the brake fluid level is normal but the symbols are still illuminated,
the car can be driven, with great care, to
a workshop to have the brake system
checked. Volvo recommends that you
seek assistance from an authorised
Volvo workshop.
WARNING
If the brake fluid is below the MIN level in
the brake fluid reservoir, do not drive further
before topping up the brake fluid.
The loss of brake fluid must be investigated
by a workshop. Volvo recommends that you
contact an authorised Volvo workshop.
WARNING
If the BRAKE and ABS symbols are lit at the
same time, there is a risk that the rear end
will skid during heavy braking.
Warning
The red warning symbol illuminates when a
fault has been indicated which could affect the
safety and/or driveability of the car. An explanatory text is shown on the information display
at the same time. The symbol remains visible
until the fault has been rectified but the text
message can be cleared with the OK button,
see page 200. The warning symbol can also
illuminate in conjunction with other symbols.

page 79.
The display lighting is automatically subdued
in darkness - the sensitivity is set with the
thumbwheel.
The intensity of the instrument lighting is
adjusted with the thumbwheel.
Headlamp levelling
The load in the car changes the vertical alignment of the headlamp beam, which could dazzle oncoming motorists. Avoid this by adjusting
the height of the beam. Lower the beam if the
car is heavily laden.
1. Leave the engine running, or have the car's
electrical system in key position I.
2. Roll the thumbwheel up/down to raise/
lower beam alignment.
Cars with active Xenon headlamps* have automatic headlamp levelling and are therefore not
equipped with the thumbwheel.

becomes too weak. Switching to dipped beam
also takes place if the windscreen wipers or
rear foglights are activated.

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.
Dipped beam
In position, dipped beam is activated
automatically at dusk or when daylight
becomes too weak. Dipped beam is also activated automatically if the windscreen wipers or
rear foglights are activated.
In position
dipped beam is always activated when the engine is running or when key
position II is active.
Main beam
Main beam can be activated when the headlamp control is in position
. Activate/
deactivate main beam by moving the stalk
switch towards the steering wheel to the end
position and release. Alternatively, the main
beam can be deactivated by a light press of the
stalk switch toward the steering wheel.
When main beam has been activated the symbol
illuminates in the combined instru-
ment panel.
Main beam with automatic activation AHB*
Main beam with automatic activation (Active
High Beam - AHB) is a function which uses a
camera sensor at the top edge of the windscreen to detect the headlamp beams of
oncoming traffic or the rear lights of vehicles in
front, and then switches from main beam to
dipped beam. The lights are switched back to
main beam a second or so after the camera
sensor no longer detects any such light.
This function can be activated when the headlamp control is in position
. For activation
to take place, the engine must have been running for at least 20 seconds and the speed of
the car must be 20 km/h or higher.
Light switch in position AUTO.
Activate/deactivate AHB by moving the lefthand stalk switch towards the steering wheel
to the end position and release. Deactivation
when main beam is on means that the lights
switch directly to dipped beam.

* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
In cars with analogue combined instrument
panel:
When AHB has been activated, the symbol
illuminates in the instrument panel dis-
play. When main beam has been activated, the
symbol also illuminates in the instru-
ment panel display.
In cars with digital combined instrument
panel:
When AHB is activated, the
symbol
shines white in the instrument panel display.
When main beam is activated, the symbol
shines blue.
NOTE
Keep the windscreen surface in front of the
camera sensor free from ice, snow, mist and
dirt.
Do not stick or attach anything to the windscreen in front of the camera sensor as this
may reduce effectiveness or cause one or
more of the systems dependent on the camera to stop working.
If the message Active main beam
Temporary unavailable Swicth manually
is
shown in the combined instrument panel's display then you have to switch manually between
main and dipped beam. However, the headlamp control may nevertheless be in position
. The same applies if the message
Windscreen sensors blocked See manual
and the symbol are shown. The
symbol goes out when these mes-
sages are shown.
AHB may be temporarily unavailable e.g. in sit-
uations with dense fog or heavy rain. When
AHB becomes available again, or the windscreen sensors are no longer blocked, the
message goes out and the
symbol illu-
minates.
WARNING
AHB is an aid for using optimum light composition when conditions are favourable.
The driver always bears responsibility for
manually switching between main and
dipped beam when traffic situations or
weather conditions so require.
IMPORTANT
Examples of when manual switching
between main and dipped beam may be
required:
•
In heavy rain or dense fog
•
In freezing rain
•
In snow flurries or slush
•
In moonlight
•
When driving in poorly lit built-up areas
•
When the traffic ahead has weak lighting
•
If there are pedestrians on or beside the
road
•
If there are highly reflective objects such
as signs in the vicinity of the road
•
When the lighting from oncoming traffic
is obscured by e.g. a crash barrier
•
When there is traffic on connecting
roads
•
On the brow of a hill or in a hollow
•
In sharp bends.
For more information on the limitations of the
camera sensor, see page 171.
Tunnel detection*
In cars fitted with a rain sensor*, the rain sensor
detects the change in light conditions when the

car enters a tunnel, for example. The lighting is
then switched within one second from daytime
running lights to the main headlamps' dipped
beam. Approx. 20 seconds after the car has
emerged from the tunnel, the lights return to
daytime running lights. If the car is driven into
another tunnel within this time period, the
return to daytime running lights is cancelled.
This prevents frequent changes to the car lighting. Note! - The headlamp control must be in
position for tunnel detection to work.
Active Xenon headlamps ABL*

increased safety.
The function is activated automatically when
the car is started (provided that it has not been
deactivated in the menu system MY CAR). In
