General
Climate control
The car is equipped with electronic climate
control. The climate control system cools or
heats as well as dehumidifies the air in the pas-
senger compartment.
NOTE
The air conditioning system (AC) can be
switched off, but to ensure the best possible
climate comfort in the passenger compart-
ment and to prevent the windows from mist-
ing, it should always be on.
Actual temperature
The temperature you select corresponds to the
physical experience with reference to factors
such as air speed, humidity and solar radiation
etc. in and around the car.
The system includes a sun sensor
1
which
detects on which side the sun is shining into
the passenger compartment. This means that
the temperature can differ between the right
and left-hand air vents despite the controls
being set for the same temperature on both
sides.
Sensor location
The sun sensor
1
is located on the top side
of the dashboard.
The temperature sensor for the passenger
compartment is located below the climate
control panel.
The outside temperature sensor is located
on the door mirror.
The humidity sensor* is located by the inte-
rior rearview mirror.
NOTE
Do not cover or block the sensors with
clothing or other objects.
Side windows and sunroof*
To ensure that the air conditioning works opti-
mally, the side windows, and sunroof* if speci-
fied, should be closed.
Misting windows
Remove misting on the insides of the windows
by primarily using the defroster function.
To reduce the risk of misting, keep the win-
dows clean and use window cleaner.
Temporary shut-off of the air
conditioning
When the engine requires full power, e.g. for full
acceleration or driving uphill with a trailer, the
air conditioning can be temporarily switched
off. There may then be a temporary increase in
temperature in the passenger compartment.
Condensation
In warm weather, condensation from the air
conditioning may drip under the car. This is
normal.
Ice and snow
Remove ice and snow from the climate control
system air intake (the grille between the bonnet
and the windscreen).
Fault tracing and repair
Engage a workshop that has authorisation for
the fault tracing and repair of the climate con-
trol system. Volvo recommends that you con-
tact an authorised Volvo workshop.
Refrigerant
The air conditioning system contains a refrig-
erant. This refrigerant contains no chlorine,
which means that it is harmless to the ozone
layer. Engage a workshop that has authorisa-
tion for filling/changing refrigerant to carry out
