Recording data

As part of Volvo's safety and quality assurance, certain information about the vehicle's operation, functionality and incidents are recorded in the car.
This vehicle is equipped with an "Event Data Recorder" (EDR). Its primary purpose is to regis­ter and record data related to traffic accidents or collision-like situations, such as times when the airbag deploys or the vehicle strikes an obstacle in the road. The data is recorded in order to increase understanding of how vehicle systems work in these types of situations. The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety systems for a short time, usually 30 seconds or less.
The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record data related to the following in the event of traffic accidents or collision-like situations:
How the various systems in the car worked
Whether the driver and passenger seatbelts were fastened/tensioned
The driver's use of the accelerator or brake pedal
The travel speed of the vehicle
This information can help us better understand the circumstances in which traffic accidents, inju­ries and damage occur. The EDR only records data when a non-trivial collision situation occurs. The EDR does not record any data during normal
driving conditions. Similarly, the system never registers who is driving the vehicle or the geo­graphic location of the accident or near-miss sit­uation. However, other parties, such as the police, could use the recorded data in combination with the type of personally identifiable information routinely collected after a traffic accident. Special equipment and access to either the vehicle or the EDR is required to be able to interpret the regis­tered data.
In addition to the EDR, the car is equipped with a number of computers designed to continually check and monitor the function of the car. They can record data during normal driving conditions, but in particular register faults affecting the vehi­cle's operation and functionality, or upon activa­tion of the vehicle's driver support function (e.g. City Safety and the auto brake function).
Some of the recorded data is required to enable service and maintenance technicians to diagnose and remedy any faults that occurred in the vehi­cle. The registered information is also needed to enable Volvo to satisfy legal requirements laid out in laws and by government authorities. Informa­tion registered in the vehicle is stored in its com­puter until the vehicle is serviced or repaired.
In addition to the above, the registered informa­tion can be used in aggregate form for research and product development with the aim of contin­uously improving the safety and quality of Volvo cars.
Volvo will not contribute to the above-described information being disclosed to third parties with­out the vehicle owner's consent. To comply with national legislation and regulations, Volvo may be forced to disclose information of this nature to the police or other authorities who may assert a legal right to access such. Special technical equipment which Volvo and workshops that have entered into agreements with Volvo have access to is required to be able to read and interpret the recorded data. Volvo is responsible that the infor­mation, which is transferred to Volvo during serv­icing and maintenance, is securely stored and managed and that its management complies with relevant legal requirements. For further informa­tion - contact a Volvo dealer.

Important information on accessories, extra equipment and diagnostic socket

Incorrect connection and installation of accesso­ries, extra equipment or software/diagnostic tools may have a negative effect on the car's electronic system.
Certain accessories only function when associ­ated software is installed in the car's computer system. Volvo therefore recommends always making contact with an authorised Volvo work­shop before the installation of accessories or extra equipment that are connected to or affect the electrical system.

Connection of equipment to the car's diagnostic socket

WARNING
Volvo Cars accepts no responsibility for the consequences of cases where non-authorised equipment is connected to the car's data link connector (On-Board-Diagnostics (OBD-II)).
The diagnostic socket is located under the instrument panel and on the same side as the steering wheel.

Drive-E - cleaner driving pleasure

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

Fuel consumption

Since a large part of a car's total environmental impact stems from its use, the emphasis of Volvo Cars' environmental work is on reducing fuel con­sumption, carbon dioxide emissions and other air pollutants. Volvo cars have competitive fuel con­sumption in each of their respective classes. Lower fuel consumption generally results in lower emission of the greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide.

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

Efficient emission control

Your Volvo is manufactured following the concept "Clean inside and out" – a concept that encom­passes a clean interior environment as well as highly efficient emission control. In many cases the exhaust emissions are well below the applica­ble standards.

Clean air in the passenger compartment

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

Interior

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

Volvo workshops and the environment

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

Recycling

Since Volvo works from a life cycle perspective, it is also important that the car is recycled in an environmentally sound manner. Almost all of the car can be recycled. The last owner of the car is therefore requested to contact a dealer for refer­ral to a certified/approved recycling facility.

IntelliSafe-driver support

IntelliSafe is the Volvo Cars concept concerning car safety. It comprises a number of systems that contribute to making a car journey safe, to the prevention of injuries and to the protection of passengers from other road users.

Support

There are systems incorporated in IntelliSafe that help the driver to drive the car in a safe manner. The driver support functions incorporated in the car include e.g. the adaptive cruise control (Adaptive Cruise Control)* that ensures that a constant distance is held between the car and the vehicle in front.
Pilot Assist* helps the driver to keep the car between the lane's edge markings, combined with maintaining a preset time interval to the vehicle ahead.
Park Assist Pilot* helps the driver park the car by sensing the area around it.
Other examples of systems that help the driver are the Active main beam, Cross Traffic Alert (CTA)* and Blind Spot Information (BLIS)* sys­tems.

Prevention

An example of a function that helps to prevent accidents is City Safety. The function warns the driver of risks of collision with another vehicle, pedestrians, cyclists or larger animals. If the driver
does not react to the warning and the risk of col­lision is imminent then City Safety can automati­cally brake the car.
Lane Keeping Aid (LKA)* is another example of a function that helps to prevent accidents by warn­ing the driver and giving corrective steering inter­ventions if the car is about to cross a lane side line.
Also available is the run-off mitigation function (Run off mitigation), whose purpose is to reduce the risk of the car unintentionally leaving the road, and it actively steers the car back onto the road.

Protection

To protect the driver and passengers, the car is equipped with seatbelt tensioners which can ten­sion the seatbelts in critical situations and in col­lisions. It also has airbags and inflatable curtains, as well as Whiplash Protection System (WHIPS) which protects against whiplash injuries.
