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 65 mm
B 150 mm
C 125 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.
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.
Page 23
01 Introduction

* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
21
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 Economical driving (p.
300) and Fuel consumption and CO2 emis­sions (p. 454).
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 their (p. 25) seatbelt by means of an audio and visual reminder (p. 27).
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 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 type-approved and designed for installation at the same location as the replaced seatbelt.

Seatbelt - pregnancy
Seatbelt (p. 24) 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. 73) and steer­ing wheel (p. 77) 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 (p. 25) their seatbelt 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 in the combined instrument panel (p. 60).
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. 24) 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 acknowledged
automatically after approximately 30 seconds driving or after pressing the indicator stalk (p. 101) OK button. If any­one is unbelted then the message can only be acknowledged manually by pressing the indicator stalk 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 combined instrument panel's information display shows which seatbelts are in use. This information is always available.
Seatbelt tensioner
Seatbelts (p. 24) 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.

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-hand­drive car.
G018666
Airbag system viewed from above, right-hand­drive 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.
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 seatbelt is fastened. Applies to all seatbelt positions apart from centre seat rear.
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.
The SIPS bag system consists of two main components, side airbag and sensors. The side airbags are located in the front seat 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.

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.

Inflatable Curtain (IC)
The inflatable curtain helps to prevent the driver and passengers from striking their heads on the inside of the car during a colli­sion.
The inflatable curtain IC (Inflatable Curtain) is a part of the SIPS system (p. 33). 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.

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.
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.

36
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 - seating position
In order to obtain optimum protection from the WHIPS system (p. 35) 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. 73) 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.

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.
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 rear­end 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 (p. 29) 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.
General information on safety mode
Safety mode is a protective state that is enforced when the collision may have dam­aged any of the car's vital functions, such as the fuel lines, sensors for one of the safety systems, or the brake system.

If the car is involved in a collision, the text
Safety mode See manual may appear in the
combined instrument panel (p. 60) informa­tion display. This means that the car has reduced functionality.
WARNING
Never attempt to repair your car or reset the electronics yourself if the car has been in safety mode. This could result in per­sonal injury or the car not functioning as normal. Volvo recommends that you engage an authorised Volvo workshop to check and restore the car to normal status after
Safety mode See manual has been

If the car is set in safety mode (p. 38) 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

Pedestrian airbag*
In certain frontal collisions, the pedestrian air­bag (Pedestrian Airbag) contributes to miti­gating the collision of the pedestrian with the car.
The pedestrian airbag (Pedestrian Airbag) is fitted under the bonnet near the windscreen. In the event of certain frontal collisions 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. The sensors are designed to detect a collision
with an object that has similar properties to those of the human leg.
Page 43
02 Safety
02
* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
41
NOTE
There may be objects in the traffic environ­ment that prompt a signal to the sensors that is similar to a collision with a pedes­trian. It is possible that the system will be activated in the event of a collision with such an object.
If the airbag is activated (Pedestrian Airbag)
the rear part of the bonnet is raised and locked in this position
the hazard warning flashers are activated
the brake system is prepared for the upcoming emergency braking.
WARNING
Do not fit any accessories or change any­thing in the front if the car is equipped with airbag (Pedestrian Airbag). 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.
WARNING
Volvo recommends contacting an author­ised Volvo workshop in the event of dam­age to the bumper in order to ensure that the system is intact.

Eco guide & Power guide*
Eco guide and Power guide are two com­bined instrument panel (p. 60) 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. 124).
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. 61).
Instantaneous value
Average value
Instantaneous value
The instantaneous value is displayed here ­the higher the result on the scale, the better.
The instantaneous value is calculated on the basis of speed, engine speed, engine power utilised plus use of the foot brake.
Optimum speed (50-80 km/h) and low revs are encouraged. The pointers fall under 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 of late. 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. 61).
Available engine power
Engine power utilised
Available engine power
The smaller, upper pointer shows the availa­ble engine power11. The higher the result on the scale, the more power is available in the current gear.
Engine power utilised
The larger, lower pointer shows the engine power utilised11. The higher the result on the scale, the more power is being taken from the engine.
A large gap between the two pointers indi­cates a large power reserve.
11
Power is dependent on engine speed.

ABL fault
The symbol illuminates if a fault has arisen in the ABL function (Active Bending Lights).
Emissions system
If the symbol illuminates after the engine has been started 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 switched on.
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.

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.

Knob for headlamp control in AUTO position.
With the knob for headlamp control in position the daytime running lights (Daytime Running Lights - DRL) are activated automati­cally when the car is driven during daytime. A light sensor on the top of the instrument panel changes from daytime running lights to dipped beam at twilight or when daylight becomes too weak. Changing to dipped beam also takes place if the windscreen wip­ers or rear fog lamps are activated.
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.

Tunnel detection*
Tunnel detection changes the lighting from daytime running lights to dipped beam when the car is driven into a tunnel. Approx. 20 sec­onds after the car has left the tunnel, the light­ing returns to daytime running lights.
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 prevents frequent changes to the car lighting.
Note that the headlamp control's knob must remain in
position for tunnel detection
to work.

Active high beam*
The Active High Beam function detects the headlamp beams of 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 high beam - AHB
Active high 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 of 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.
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.
Activating/deactivating
AHB can be activated when the headlamp control's knob is in position
(provided that the function has not been deactivated in the menu system MY CAR, see MY CAR ­menu options (p. 106)).
Stalk switch and knob for headlamp control in AUTO position.
The function can start while driving in the dark when the car's speed is 20 km/h or higher.
Activate/deactivate AHB by moving the left­hand stalk switch towards the steering wheel to the end position and then releasing. Deac­tivation when main beam is on means that the lights are reset directly to dipped beam.

When AHB is activated the
symbol illu­minates in the instrument's information dis­play.
When main beam has been switched on the
symbol also illuminates in the com-
bined instrument panel.

When AHB is activated the
symbol turns white in the instrument's information display.
When main beam is activated, the symbol shines blue.
Manual operation
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 Switch manually is
shown in the combined instrument panel's information display then you have to switch manually between main and dipped beam. However, the knob for headlamp control can
still remain in position
. The same
applies if the message

are shown. The
symbol goes out when
these messages are shown. AHB may be temporarily unavailable e.g. in
situations 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 the optimum beam pattern 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.
