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 val-
ues and influences all operations. The environ-
mental 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 recy-
cling. 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 manufactur-
ing units must be ISO 14001 certified, and this
supports a systematic approach to the opera-
tion's environmental issues, which leads to con-
tinuous 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 con-
sumption, carbon dioxide emissions and other air
pollutants. Volvo cars have competitive fuel con-
sumption in each of their respective classes.
Lower fuel consumption generally results in lower
emission of the greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide.
YOUR VOLVO

Contributing to a better environment
An energy-efficient and fuel-efficient car not only
contributes to a reduced impact on the environ-
ment, 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 main-
tenance 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* before starting in cold
conditions - it improves starting capacity and
reduces wear in cold weather. The engine
reaches normal operating temperature more
quickly, which decreases consumption and
reduces emissions.
Also remember to always dispose of environmen-
tally hazardous waste, such as batteries and oil, in
an environmentally safe manner. Consult a work-
shop in the event of uncertainty about how this
type of waste should be discarded - an author-
ised Volvo workshop is recommended.
Efficient emission control
Your Volvo is manufactured following the concept
"Clean inside and out" – a concept that encom-
passes a clean interior environment as well as
highly efficient emission control. In many cases
the exhaust emissions are well below the applica-
ble standards.
Clean air in the passenger
compartment
An air filter helps prevent dust and pollen enter-
ing 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 com-
partment 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 Pack-
age (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 steer-
ing 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 knowl-
edge 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 retailer for refer-
ral to a certified/approved recycling facility.

ity, navigation* and the user interface between
driver and car. It is Sensus that makes communi-
cation possible between you, the car and the out-
side world.

Many of the main functions of the car are con-
trolled from the centre display, a touch screen
which reacts to touch. The number of physical
buttons and controls in the car is therefore mini-
mal. The screen can even be operated while
wearing gloves.
From here, for example, you can control the cli-
mate control system, the entertainment system
and seat position*. The information that is shown
in the centre display can be acted on by the
driver or someone else in the car when the
opportunity arises.
Voice recognition system
The voice recognition system
can be used without the driver
needing to take his/her hands
off the steering wheel. The sys-
tem can understand natural
speech. Use voice recognition
to, for example, play back a
song, call someone, increase the temperature or
read out a text message.

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 regis-
ter 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, inju-
ries 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 geo-
graphic location of the accident or near-miss sit-
uation. 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 regis-
tered 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 vehi-
cle's operation and functionality, or upon activa-
tion 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 vehi-
cle. The registered information is also needed to
enable Volvo to satisfy legal requirements laid out
in laws and by government authorities. Informa-
tion registered in the vehicle is stored in its com-
puter until the vehicle is serviced or repaired.
In addition to the above, the registered informa-
tion can be used in aggregate form for research
and product development with the aim of contin-
uously improving the safety and quality of Volvo
cars.

Important information on
accessories and auxiliary
equipment
The incorrect connection and installation of
accessories and extra equipment can negatively
affect the car's electronic system.
We strongly recommend that Volvo owners only
install Volvo approved original accessories, and
that installation of accessories is only carried out
by trained and qualified Volvo service technicians.
Certain accessories only function when associ-
ated software is installed in the car's computer
system.
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.
Options or accessories described in this manual
are marked with an asterisk. In the event of
uncertainty over what is standard or an option/
accessory, contact a Volvo retailer.
WARNING
The driver always bears the ultimate responsi-
bility that the car is used safely and that laws
and regulations in force are followed.
It is also important that the car has mainte-
nance and service according to Volvo's rec-
ommendations, the owner's information and
the service and warranty booklet.
If the on-board information differs from the
printed owner's manual then the printed infor-
mation always has precedence.

Driver distraction
The driver is responsible for doing everything
possible to ensure the safety of themselves, their
passengers and other road users. Part of this
responsibility is avoiding distractions such as
carrying out an activity that is not related to oper-
ating the car in a driving environment.
Your new Volvo is, or can be, equipped with con-
tent-rich entertainment and communications sys-
tems. This could be mobile phones with hands-
free, navigation systems and audio systems with
lots of functions. You may also have other porta-
ble electronic devices for your own convenience.
Used correctly, in a safe way they can enrich the
driving experience. If they are used in the wrong
way they could distract you.
We wish to give the following warnings regarding
such systems, to indicate Volvo's concern for
your safety. Never use a device or function in the
car in such a way that it will distract you from the
task of driving safely. Distractions can lead to
serious accidents. Apart from these general
warnings, we offer the following advice regarding
the new functions that may be in the car:
WARNING
Never use a hand-held mobile phone
while driving. In some areas it is forbidden
for the driver to use a mobile phone while
the car is moving.
If the car is equipped with a navigation
system you must only set and change the
itinerary when the car is parked.
Never program the audio system while
the car is moving. Program the radio's
presets when the car is parked and then
use the programmed presets for faster
and simpler use of the radio.
Never use laptops or hand-held comput-
ers while the car is moving.

Safety
The vehicle is equipped with several safety sys-
tems that work together to protect the vehicle's
driver and passengers in the event of an acci-
dent.
The car is equipped with a number of sensors
that react in the event of an accident and activate
different safety systems, such as different types
of airbags and seatbelt tensioners. Depending on
the specific accident situation, such as collisions
at different angles, roll-over or driving off the
road, the systems react in different ways to pro-
vide the best protection.
There are also mechanical safety systems such
as Whiplash Protection System. The car is also
constructed so that a large part of the force of a
collision is distributed to beams, pillars, floor, roof
and other parts of the body.
The car's safety mode may be activated after a
collision if an important function in the car has
been damaged.
Warning symbol in driver display
The warning symbol is illuminated in
the driver display when the car's elec-
trical system is set in ignition position
II. The symbol is extinguished after
approx. 6 seconds if the car's safety system is
fault-free.
WARNING
If the warning symbol remains illuminated or
is switched on during driving and the mes-
sage
SRS airbag Service urgent Drive to
workshop is shown in the driver display, it
means that part of one of the safety systems
does not have full functionality. Volvo recom-
mends that an authorised Volvo workshop
should be contacted as soon as possible.
WARNING
Never modify or repair the car's various safety
systems yourself. Defective work in one of the
systems can cause malfunction and result in
serious personal injury. Volvo recommends
that an authorised Volvo workshop should be
contacted.
If the specific warning symbol is broken
then the general warning symbol is illu-
minated instead and the driver display
shows the same message.

The diagonal section should wrap over the shoul-
der 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.

Whiplash Protection System
Whiplash Protection System (WHIPS) reduces
the risk of whiplash injuries. The system consists
of energy absorbing backrests and seat cushion,
as well as a specially designed head restraint in
the front seats.
WHIPS is deployed in the event of a rear-end
collision, where the angle and speed of the colli-
sion and the nature of the colliding vehicle all
have an influence.
When WHIPS is deployed, the front seat back-
rests are lowered backward and the seat cush-
ions move downward to change the seating posi-
tion of the driver and front seat passenger. Its
movement helps to absorb some of the forces
that can arise and cause whiplash.
WARNING
WHIPS is a supplement to the seatbelts.
Always use a seatbelt.
WARNING
Never modify or repair the seat or WHIPS
yourself. Volvo recommends that an author-
ised Volvo workshop should be contacted.
If the front seats have been subjected to a
major load, such as in conjunction with a colli-
sion, the seats must be replaced. Some of the
seats' protective properties may have been
lost even if they do not appear damaged.
Do not leave any objects on the floor behind or under
the front seats or in the rear seat that may prevent
WHIPS from functioning.
||
SAFETY
* Option/accessory.
44
WARNING
Do not squeeze rigid objects between the
rear seat cushion and the front seat's back-
rest.
If a backrest in the rear seat is lowered then
any load must be secured to prevent it from
sliding up to the front seat backrest in the
event of a collision.
WARNING
If a backrest in the rear seat is lowered or a
rear-facing child seat is used in the rear seat,
the corresponding front seat must be moved
forward so that it does not make contact with
the lowered backrest or child seat.
Seating position
For optimum protection from WHIPS the driver
and passenger must have the correct seating
position and make sure that the system's func-
tion is not obstructed.
Set the correct seating position in the front seat
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.
WHIPS and child seats
The protection provided by the car to children
seated in a child seat or on a booster cushion is
not diminished by WHIPS.

Seatbelts
Heavy braking can have serious consequences
if the seatbelts are not used.
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.
WARNING
Remember not to clip or hook the seatbelt to
hooks or other interior fittings, as this pre-
vents the belt from tightening properly.
WARNING
The seatbelts and airbags interact. If a seat-
belt is not used or is used incorrectly, this may
diminish the protection provided by the airbag
in the event of a collision.

vents the belt from tightening properly.
WARNING
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 colli-
sion. There is a risk of serous injury.
Taking off seatbelts
1. Press the red button on the seatbelt buckle
and then let the belt retract.
2. If the seatbelt does not retract fully, feed it in

Seatbelt tensioner
The car is fitted with standard seatbelt tension-
ers and electric* seatbelt tensioners that can
tension the seatbelts in critical situations and
collisions.
Standard seatbelt tensioner
The seatbelts in the front seat and at the outer
seats in the rear are equipped with a standard
belt pretensioner.
The seatbelt tensioner tensions the seatbelt in
the event of a collision with sufficient force in
order to more effectively restrain the occupant.
Electric seatbelt tensioner*
The driver and front passenger seatbelts are
equipped with an electric seatbelt tensioner.
The seatbelt tensioners work together and can
be activated together with the driver support sys-
tems City Safety and Rear Collision Warning. In
critical situations, such as panic braking, driving
off the road (e.g. the car rolls into a ditch, lifts off
the ground or hits something in the terrain), skid-
ding, or risk of collision, the seatbelt can be ten-
sioned by the seatbelt tensioner's electric motor.
The electric seatbelt tensioner helps to adjust the
occupant to a better position, reducing the risk of
striking the car's interior and improving the effect
of safety systems, such as the car's airbags.
When the critical situation has come to an end,

Airbags
The car is equipped with airbags and inflatable
curtains for driver and passengers.
NOTE
The detectors react differently depending on
the nature of the collision and whether or not
the seatbelts are fastened. Applies to all belt
positions.
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 accord-
ingly so that none, one or more airbags are
deployed.
WARNING
The airbag system's control module is located
in the centre console. If the centre console is
drenched with water or other liquid, discon-
nect the cables to the starter battery. Do not
attempt to start the car since the airbags may
deploy. Recovering the car. Volvo recom-
mends that it is transported to an authorised
Volvo workshop.
Deployed airbags
If any of the airbags have deployed, the following
is recommended:
Recovering the car. Volvo recommends that it
is transported to an authorised Volvo work-
shop. Do not drive with deployed airbags.
Volvo recommends engaging an authorised
Volvo workshop to handle the replacement of
components in the car's safety systems.
Always contact a doctor.
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 inten-
sive exposure. In case of irritation, wash with
cold water. The rapid deployment sequence
and airbag fabric may cause friction and skin

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.

Side airbags
The side airbags on the driver's and passenger
seats act to protect the chest and hips in the
event of a collision.
The side airbags are fitted in the outer backrest
frames of the front seats and help to protect the
driver and passengers in the front seat.
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.
SAFETY
55
WARNING
Volvo recommends that an authorised Volvo
workshop should be contacted for repair.
Defective work in the side airbag system
could cause malfunction and result in serious
personal injury.
WARNING
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.
WARNING
Side airbags are a supplement the seatbelts.
Always use a seatbelt.
Side airbags and child seats
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.

Airbags (p. 49)
Inflatable curtains
The Inflatable Curtain (IC), helps to prevent the
driver and passengers from striking their heads
on the inside of the car during a collision.
The inflatable curtain is mounted along both
sides of the headlining and helps protect the
driver and outer seat passengers of the car. The
panels are labelled with IC AIRBAG.
A sufficiently violent collision trips the sensors
and the inflatable curtain is inflated.
WARNING
Volvo recommends that an authorised Volvo
workshop should be contacted for repair.
Defective work in the inflatable curtain system
can cause malfunction and result in serious
personal injury.
WARNING
Never hang or attach heavy items onto the
handles in the roof. The hooks are only
designed for light coats and jackets (not for
solid objects such as umbrellas).
Do not screw or install anything onto the car's
headlining, door pillars or side panels. This
could compromise the intended protection.
Volvo recommends only using Volvo genuine
parts that are approved for fitting within these
areas.
WARNING
Leave 10 cm (4 inches) space between the
load and the side windows if the car is loaded
to above the top edge of the door windows.
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.

child safety equipment fits in well and is simple to
use.
The equipment that should be used is selected
taking account of the weight and size of the child.
Volvo recommends that children travel in a rear-
facing child seat until as late an age as possible,
at least until 3-4 years of age, and then in a
front-facing child seat until the child is 140 cm
(4 feet 7 inches) tall.

Child seat positioning
It is important to position the child seat in the
right place in the car. The choice of location
depends, amongst other things, on the type of
child seat and whether the passenger airbag is
activated.
Rear-facing child seat and airbag are not compatible.
Always fit rear-facing child seats in the rear seat
if the passenger airbag is activated. If a child is
sitting on the front passenger seat then he/she
could suffer serious injury if the airbag deploys.
If the passenger airbag is deactivated then rear-
facing child seats can be fitted on the front pas-
senger seat.
NOTE
Regulations regarding the placement of chil-
dren in cars vary from country to country.
Check what does apply.
WARNING
Never allow anybody to stand or sit in front of
the front passenger seat.
Never use a rear-facing child seat on the front
passenger seat if the airbag is activated.
Front-facing passengers (children and adults)
must never sit on the front passenger seat if
the passenger airbag is deactivated.

Driver display
The driver display shows information about the
car and driving.
The driver display contains gauges, indicators and
indicator and warning symbols. The content of
the driver display depends on the car's equip-
ment, settings and which functions are active at
that time.
The driver display is activated as soon as a door
is opened, i.e. in ignition position 0. The driver
display extinguishes after a while if it is not used.
To reactivate it, proceed with one of the following:
Depress the brake pedal.
Activate ignition position I.
Open one of the doors.
WARNING
If the driver display should extinguish, not illu-
minate on activation/start or be fully or parti-
ally illegible, the car must not be used. You
should visit a workshop immediately. Volvo
recommends an authorised Volvo workshop.
WARNING
In the event of a fault in the driver display the
information on e.g. brakes, airbags or other
safety systems may not be shown. In which
case, the driver cannot check the status of
the car's systems or receive current warnings
and information.
The figure is schematic - parts may vary depending on
car model.

Trip computer
The car's trip computer records vales such as
e.g. distance, fuel consumption and average
speed whilst driving.
In order to facilitate fuel-efficient driving, informa-
tion is recorded about both instantaneous and
average fuel consumption. The information from
the trip computer can be shown in the driver dis-
play.
Examples of trip computer information in the driver dis-
play.

The following meters are included in the trip
computer:
Trip meter
Odometer
Instantaneous fuel consumption
Distance to empty tank
Tourist - alternative speedometer
Units for distance, speed, etc. can be changed via
system settings in the centre display.
Trip meter
There are two trip meters, TM and TA.
TM can be reset manually and TA is reset auto-
matically if the car is not used for at least four
hours.
The following information is registered while driv-
ing:
Mileage
Driving time
Average speed
Average fuel consumption
The values apply from the trip meter's latest
reset.
Odometer
The odometer records the car's total mileage.
This value cannot be reset to zero.
Instantaneous fuel consumption
This gauge shows the fuel consumption that the
car has at the moment. The value is updated
approximately every second.

Distance to empty tank
The trip computer calculates the
remaining mileage with the fuel availa-
ble in the tank.
The calculation is based on the average fuel con-
sumption over the last 30 km (20 miles) and the
remaining drivable fuel quantity.
When the gauge shows "----", there is not
enough fuel left to be able to calculate the
remaining mileage. Refuel as soon as possible.
NOTE
There may be a slight deviation if the driving
style has been changed.
An economic driving style generally results in a
longer driving distance.
Tourist - alternative speedometer
The alternative digital speedometer makes it eas-
ier to drive in countries where speed limit signs
are in a different unit than that shown in the car's
instruments.
The digital speed is then shown in the opposite
unit to that shown in the analogue speedometer.
If the analogue speedometer is graduated in
mph, the digital speedometer shows the corres-
ponding speed in km/h and vice versa.

when it has stopped.
Tyre pressure system
The symbol illuminates when tyre
pressure is too low. If there is a
fault in the tyre pressure system,
the symbol will flash for approx. 1
minute and then illuminate with a
constant glow. This may be
because the system cannot detect
or warn of low tyre pressure as
intended.
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 work-
shop for checking. Volvo recom-
mends that an authorised Volvo
workshop is contacted.

Introduction
The FreeType Project is distributed in several
archive packages; some of them may contain, in
addition to the FreeType font engine, various
tools and contributions which rely on, or relate to,
the FreeType Project. This license applies to all
files found in such packages, and which do not
fall under their own explicit license. The license
affects thus the FreeType font engine, the test
programs, documentation and makefiles, at the
very least. This license was inspired by the BSD,
Artistic, and IJG (Independent JPEG Group)
licenses, which all encourage inclusion and use
of free software in commercial and freeware
products alike. As a consequence, its main points
are that: o We don't promise that this software
works. However, we will be interested in any kind
of bug reports. (`as is' distribution) o You can use
this software for whatever you want, in parts or
full form, without having to pay us. (`royalty-free'
usage) o You may not pretend that you wrote this
software. If you use it, or only parts of it, in a
program, you must acknowledge somewhere in
your documentation that you have used the
FreeType code. (`credits') We specifically permit
and encourage the inclusion of this software, with
or without modifications, in commercial products.
We disclaim all warranties covering The FreeType
Project and assume no liability related to The
FreeType Project. Finally, many people asked us
for a preferred form for a credit/disclaimer to use
in compliance with this license. We thus
encourage you to use the following text:

Driver profiles
Many of the settings made in the car can be
adapted according to the driver's personal pref-
erences and can be saved in one or more driver
profiles.
The personal settings are automatically saved in
the active driver profile. Each key can be linked to
a driver profile. When the linked key is used, the
car is adapted to the settings of that specific
driver profile.
What settings are saved in the driver
profiles?
Many of the settings defined in the car will be
saved automatically in the active driver profile
unless the profile is protected. In the car, the set-
tings defined are either personal or global. Only
personal settings are saved in driver profiles.
Settings that can be saved in a driver profile
include, amongst other things, screens, mirrors,
front seats, navigation*, audio and media system,
language and voice control.
Some settings, referred to as global settings, can
be changed but are not saved to a specific driver
profile. Changes to global settings affect all pro-
files.
Global settings
The global settings and parameters are not
changed when changing between driver profiles.
They remain the same regardless of which driver
profile is active.
Keyboard layout settings are an example of
global settings. If driver profile X is used to add
additional languages to the keyboard, these
remain available for use even if driver profile Y is
used. The keyboard layout settings are not saved
to a specific driver profile - the settings are
global.
Personal preferences
If driver profile X was used to e.g. set centre dis-
play brightness, driver profile Y is not affected by
this setting. It has been saved to driver profile X -
the brightness setting is a personal setting.

Message in centre display
The centre display can show messages to
inform or assist the driver in the event of different
events.
Example of a message in the centre display's top view.
The centre display shows messages that are of
lower priority for the driver.
Most messages are shown above the centre dis-
play's status bar. After a while, or when any
required action related to the message has been
taken, the message disappears from the status
bar. If a message needs to be saved, it is posi-
tioned in the top view in the centre display.
Message composition may vary and they can be
shown together with graphics, symbols or a but-
ton for activating/deactivating a function linked
to the message.
Pop-up messages
In some cases, a message is shown in the form
of a pop-up window. Pop-up messages have
higher priority than messages shown in the sta-
tus bar and require acknowledgement/action
before they disappear.

Voice recognition
19
The driver can use voice recognition to control
certain functions in the media player, Bluetooth-
connected phone, climate system and Volvo's
navigation system*.
Voice commands offer additional convenience
and assist the driver to not be distracted so that
he or she can concentrate on driving, the road
and the traffic situation.
WARNING
The driver always holds overall responsibility
for driving the vehicle in a safe manner and
complying with all applicable rules of the road.
Voice control system microphone
Voice control is done in dialogue form with the
user saying commands and receiving verbal
responses from the system. The voice recognition
system uses the same microphone as Bluetooth-
connected devices, and the voice recognition
system's responses are given via the car's speak-
ers. In some cases, a text message is also shown
in the driver display. Functions are controlled
from the right-hand steering wheel keypad. Set-
tings are made via the centre display.
System updating
The voice recognition system is continuously
improved. Download updates for optimal perform-
ance from support.volvocars.com.

mand.
To change the system audio volume, turn the
rotary volume knob when the voice speaks. It is
possible to use other buttons during voice con-
trol. However, other sounds will be silenced dur-
ing dialogue with the system, which means that it
is not possible to execute any functions linked
with audio using the buttons.
Example of voice recognition control

[number category]" - dials the selected contact
from the phone book. If the contact has several
phone numbers (e.g. home, mobile, work), the
right category must be referred to.
So press
and say "Call Robin Smith
Mobile".
Commands/phrases
The following commands can generally be used,
regardless of the situation:
"
Repeat" - repeats the last voice instruction
in the ongoing dialogue.
"
Cancel" - discontinue the dialogue.
"
Help" - starts a help dialogue. The system
replies with the commands available in the
current situation, a prompt or an example.
Commands for specific functions such as phone
and radio are described in specific sections.
Digits
The number commands are stated differently
depending on the function to be controlled:
Phone numbers and postcodes must be
spoken individually, number by number, e.g.
zero three one two two four four three
(03122443).
House numbers can be spoken individually
or in groups, e.g. two two or twenty-two (22).
For English and Dutch, several groups can
be said in sequence, e.g. twenty-two twenty-
two (22 22). For English, double or triple can
be used, e.g. double zero (00). Numbers can
be given within the range 0-2300.
Frequencies can be spoken as ninety eight
point eight (98.8), a hundred and four point
two or hundred four point two (104.2).

Active main beam
Active main beam is a function which uses a
camera sensor at the top edge of the wind-
screen to detect the headlamp beams from
oncoming traffic or the rear lights of vehicles in
front, and then switches from main beam to
dipped beam.
The symbol represents active main beam.
The function can start while driving in the dark
when the car's speed is approx. 20 km/h (approx.
12 mph) or higher. The function can also take
streetlights into account. When the camera sen-
sor no longer detects any oncoming car or car in
front, main beam is switched on again after about
a second.
Activate active main beam
Active main beam is activated and deactivated by
turning the rotating ring on the right-hand stalk
switch to position
. The rotating ring then
returns to position
. When active main
beam is activated, the symbol
illuminates
with a white glow in the driver display. When main
beam is activated, the symbol shines blue.
If active main beam is deactivated while main
beam is on, the lighting is immediately reset to
dipped beam.
Limitations for active main beam
The camera sensor on which the function is
based has limitations.
If this symbol is shown in the driver dis-
play, together with the message
Active
High Beam Temporarily
unavailable, then switching between
main and dipped beam must be performed man-
ually. The
symbol extinguishes when these
message are shown.
The same applies if this symbol is

Moisture sensor - in the casing by the inte-
rior rearview mirror.
Outside temperature sensor - in the right-

Interior Air Quality System* (p. 186)
Perceived temperature
The climate control system regulates the climate
in the passenger compartment based on the
perceived temperature, not on actual tempera-
ture.
The temperature you select in the passenger
compartment corresponds to the physically per-
ceived temperature as affected by factors such
as the ambient temperature, air speed, humidity,
solar radiation, etc. in and around the car at the
time.
The system includes a sun sensor which detects
on which side the sun is shining into the passen-
ger compartment. This means that the tempera-
ture can differ between the right and left-hand
side's air vents despite the controls being set for
the same temperature on both sides.

Air quality
The materials selected for the passenger com-
partment and the air cleaning system ensure that
the air quality in the passenger compartment is
high.
Materials in the passenger
compartment
The interior of the passenger compartment is
designed to be pleasant and comfortable, even
for people with contact allergies and for asthma
sufferers.
Tested materials have been developed in order to
minimise the quantity of dust in the passenger
compartment and to contribute to making the
passenger compartment easier to keep clean.
The carpets in both the passenger compartment
and the cargo area are removable and easy to
remove and clean.
Use cleaning agents and car care products rec-
ommended by Volvo to clean the interior.
Air cleaning system
In addition to the passenger compartment filter,
Clean Zone Interior Package* and the Interior Air
Quality System* also help to maintain high air
quality in the passenger compartment.

Clean Zone Interior Package (CZIP) comprises
a series of modifications that keep the passen-
ger compartment even clearer from allergy and
asthma-inducing substances.
The following is included:
An enhanced fan function that means that
the fan starts when the car is unlocked with
the remote control key. The fan fills the pas-
senger compartment with fresh air. The func-
tion starts when required and is disengaged
automatically after a time or when one of the
passenger compartment doors is opened.
The amount of time the fan runs is reduced
gradually due to reduced need up until the
car is 4 years old.

Interior Air Quality System*
Interior Air Quality System (IAQS) is a fully auto-
matic air quality system that separates gases
and particles to reduce the levels of odours and
contaminants in the passenger compartment.
IAQS is a part of the Clean Zone Interior
Package (CZIP) and cleans the air in the passen-
ger compartment from contaminants such as par-
ticles, hydrocarbons, nitrous oxides and ground-
level ozone.
If the air quality sensor senses that the outside
air is contaminated, the air intake is closed and
air recirculation is activated.
NOTE
The air quality sensor must always be enabled
to ensure the best air in the passenger com-
partment.
In a cold climate recirculation is limited so as
to prevent misting.
In the event of misting, the defrost functions
for windscreen, side windows and rear win-
dow should be used.

Follow the Volvo Service Programme for the rec-
ommended replacement intervals. If the car is
used in a severely contaminated environment, it
may be necessary to replace the filter more often.

partment climate when the car is parked, e.g.
preconditioning.
Functions belonging to the parking cli-
mate control are controlled from the
Parking climate in climate view in the
centre display. Open climate view by
pressing the symbol in the middle of the climate
row.

Preconditioning*
Preconditioning is a climate function which, if
possible, attempts to reach comfort temperature
in the passenger compartment before departure.
Preconditioning can use direct start or be set via
the timer.
The function utilises several systems in different
cases:
In a cold climate, the parking heater* warms
up the passenger compartment to a comfort-
able temperature.
When it is warm, the ventilation cools the
passenger compartment by blowing in air
from outside the car.
NOTE
During preconditioning of the passenger
compartment, the car works to reach comfort
temperature and not the temperature set in
the climate control system.

Climate comfort when parking*
The climate in the car's passenger compartment
can be maintained while the car is parked, e.g. if
the engine needs to be switched off but the
driver or passenger(s) wants to remain in the car
and maintain the level of climate comfort.
Starting climate comfort retention is only possible
via direct start.
The function utilises several systems in different
cases:
Residual heat from the engine, in a cold cli-
mate, heats the passenger compartment to
comfort temperature.
When it is warm, the ventilation cools the
passenger compartment by blowing in air
from outside the car.
NOTE
Climate comfort retention is switched off
when the car is locked from the outside to
avoid using residual heat unnecessarily. Use
of the function is intended to maintain climate
comfort when driver or passengers remain
inside the car.

Heater*
The heater has two subfunctions that help to
heat the passenger compartment or engine in
different situations.
The heater has two subfunctions:
Parking heater - heats the passenger com-
partment, if necessary, when the parking cli-
mate control's preconditioning is activated.
Additional heater - heats the passenger
compartment and engine, if necessary, dur-
ing driving.
The heater is fuel-driven and is fitted inside the
engine compartment.
NOTE
When the heater is running, smoke may be
emitted from under the front part of the car
and a low hum may be heard. A ticking sound
from the fuel pump may also be heard from
the rear section of the car. This is perfectly
normal.
Battery and charging
The heater is powered by the car's starter battery.
If the charge level of the starter battery is too low,
then the heater is switched off automatically and
the driver display shows a message.
NOTE
Make sure that there is enough charge in the
battery if the heater needs to be used.
Fuel and refuelling
Warning label on fuel filler flap.
The heater uses fuel from the car's normal fuel
tank.
If the car is parked on a steep incline, this may
limit the supply of fuel to the heater.
If the level in the fuel tank is too low then the
heater is switched off automatically and the driver
display shows a message.
NOTE
Make sure there is enough fuel in the car's
fuel tank if the heater needs to be used.
WARNING
Fuel which spills out could be ignited. Switch
off the fuel-driven heater before starting to
refuel.
Check in the driver display that the
heater is switched off. This symbol
is lit when it is working as a parking
heater.

Parking heater*
The parking heater heats the passenger com-
partment as necessary before driving if the car's
preconditioning is activated.
The parking heater is one of two subfunctions of
the car's heater. The heater is fitted inside the
engine compartment.
When this symbol illuminates in the
driver display, the parking heater may
be active.
NOTE
When the heater is running, smoke may be
emitted from under the front part of the car
and a low hum may be heard. A ticking sound
from the fuel pump may also be heard from
the rear section of the car. This is perfectly
normal.
The parking heater starts automatically if the
parking climate's preconditioning* is activated
and the passenger compartment needs to be
heated up.
It switches off automatically when a set timer
time or the heater's maximum run time expires, or
if the car is restarted.
The heater's maximum running time is
30 minutes.
NOTE
Make sure there is enough fuel in the car's
fuel tank if the parking heater needs to be
used.
Make sure that there is enough charge in the
starter battery if the parking heater needs to
be used.
IMPORTANT
Repeated use of the parking heater combined
with short journeys may discharge the battery
and impair starting.
If the heater is used on a regular basis, then
the car should be driven for the same amount
of time that the heater is used in order to
ensure that the car's battery is recharged with
the same amount of energy as consumed by
the parking heater.
WARNING
Do not use preconditioning if the car is equip-
ped with a heater*:
In unventilated spaces indoors. Exhaust
gases are emitted if the heater starts.
In locations with combustible or flamma-
ble material nearby. Fuel, gas, long grass,
sawdust, etc. may ignite.
When there is a risk that the heater’s
exhaust line may be blocked. For exam-
ple, deep snow under the front part of the
car can obstruct the heater’s ventilation.
Remember that the preconditioning can be
started by a timer that has been set for a long
time in advance.
WARNING
If there is a smell of fuel, unusual amounts of
smoke, black smoke, or unusual sounds com-
ing from the parking heater, switch off the
heater and, if possible, pull out its fuse. Volvo
recommends that an authorised Volvo work-
shop should be contacted for repair.

Opening and closing the tailgate
with foot movement*
A function which allows the tailgate to open and
close by moving a foot under the rear bumper
makes life easier when your hands are full.
If the car is equipped with keyless locking and
unlocking* then you can unlock the tailgate with
a foot movement.
The function with both opening and closing of
the tailgate is also available when the car is
equipped with power operated tailgate*.
NOTE
The foot-operated tailgate function is availa-
ble in two versions:
Opening and closing with foot movement
Only unlocking with foot movement (lift
up the tailgate manually to open it)
Note that the function for opening and clos-
ing with foot movement requires power oper-

The sensor is located on left of centre in the bumper.
One of the car's remote control keys must be
within range behind the car, approx. 1 metre
(3 feet), for opening and closing to be possible.
This also applies to an already unlocked car in
order to avoid accidental opening e.g. in a car
wash.
Opening and closing with foot
movement
Kicking motion within the detector's activation area.
Make one slow, forward kicking motion
under the left part of the rear bumper. Then
take a step back. The bumper must not be
touched.
> A short acoustic signal sounds when
opening or closing is activated - the tail-
gate is opened/closed.
If several kicking motions take place without an
approved remote control key being located
behind the car, opening will not be possible until
after a certain delay.
Do not leave your foot positioned under the car
during the kicking motion. This could cause acti-
vation to fail.
Cancelling opening or closing with foot
movement
Make one slow forward kicking motion when
opening or closing is in progress in order to
stop the movement of the tailgate.
The remote control key does not have to be in
the vicinity of the car to cancel opening or closing
of the tailgate.
If the tailgate is stopped close to closed position,
the next activation will open the tailgate.
NOTE
There is a risk of reduced function, or no
function, if the rear bumper is loaded with
large amounts of ice, snow, dirt or similar. For
this reason, make sure you keep it clean.
NOTE
Pay attention to the possibility that the sys-
tem may be activated in a car wash or similar
if the remote key is within range.

Alarm*
The alarm provides audible and visual warnings
if anyone enters the car without a valid remote
control key or manipulates the starter battery or
alarm siren.
When armed, the alarm is triggered if:
a door, the bonnet or the tailgate is opened
15
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 starter battery's cable is disconnected
the siren is disconnected.
Alarm signals
When the alarm has been triggered, the following
happens:
A siren sounds for 30 seconds or until the
alarm is switched off.
Hazard warning flashers flash for 5 minutes
or until the alarm is switched off.
If the cause of alarm activation is not rectified,
the alarm cycle is repeated up to 10 times

Alarm indicator
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.
After the alarm has been disarmed, the LED
flashes rapidly for a maximum of 30 seconds
or until ignition position I has been activated
- the alarm has been triggered.
Movement and tilt sensors*
Movement and tilt sensors react to movements
inside the car, if the window is broken or if any-
one tries to steal the wheels or tow the vehicle
away.
The movement sensor triggers an alarm in the
event of movement in the passenger compart-
ment - air currents are also registered. For this
reason the alarm is triggered if the car is left with
a window or the panoramic roof* open or if the
passenger compartment heater is used.
To avoid this:
Close the window and panoramic roof when
leaving the car.
If the passenger compartment or parking
heater is to be used – direct the airflow from
the air vents so that they do not point
upwards in the passenger compartment.
Alternatively, use a reduced alarm level to tempo-
rarily deactivate the movement and tilt sensors.
Also switch off the movement and tilt sensors
when the car is being transported on a ferry or
train as these movements may affect the car and
trigger the alarm.
In the event of an alarm system fault
If there is a fault in the alarm system,
the driver display shows the symbol

Driving support systems
The car is equipped with different driver support
systems which can assist the driver in different
situations, either actively or passively.
For example, the systems can help the driver to:
maintain a set speed
maintain a certain time interval to the vehicle
ahead
prevent a collision by giving a warning to the
driver and braking the car
help the driver to park.
Some of the systems are fitted as standard while
others are options – which alternative applies is
market dependent.

Speed-dependent steering force
Speed related power steering causes the steer-
ing wheel force to increase with the speed of the
car in order to give the driver enhanced sensitiv-
ity.
On motorways the steering feels firmer. When
parking and at low speed steering is light and
requires only a slight effort.
NOTE
In rare situations the power steer-
ing may become too hot and then
needs to be temporarily cooled –
during this time the power steering
operates with reduced power and turning the
steering wheel may then be perceived to be
slightly heavier.
In parallel with the temporarily reduced steer-
ing assistance, the driver display shows the
message

Stability system
The stability system (RSC

) minimises the risk
of overturning, for example during a sudden eva-
sive manoeuvre or if the car skids.
The system registers if and how much the car's
lateral inclination changes. This information is
used to calculate the risk of the car overturning. If
the car is at risk, its electronic stability control
system engages, the engine torque is reduced
and one or more wheels are braked until the car
has regained its stability.
WARNING
Under normal driving conditions, the system
improves the car's road safety, but this must
not be taken as a reason to increase speed.
Always follow the normal precautions for safe
driving.

Limitations for speed limiter
On steep downhill gradients the speed limiter’s
(SL
16
) braking effect may be inadequate and
hence the stored maximum speed may be excee-
ded. In this case, the driver is alerted by the mes-
sage
Speed limit exceeded in the driver dis-
play.
NOTE
A text message that the maximum speed is
exceeded will be activated if the speed has
been exceeded by at least 3 km/h
(approx. 2 mph).

Automatic speed limiter
The Automatic Speed Limiter (ASL
17
) function
helps the driver to adapt the car's maximum
speed to the speed shown on the road signs.
The Speed Limiter function (SL
18
) can be
changed to Automatic Speed Limiter (ASL).
The automatic speed limiter uses speed informa-
tion from the Road Sign Information* (RSI
19
)
function to automatically adapt the car's maxi-
mum speed.
WARNING
Even if the driver clearly sees the speed-
related road sign, the speed information
from the Road Sign Information* (RSI)
function to ASL may be incorrect – in
such cases the driver must intervene
him/herself and accelerate or brake to a
suitable speed.
WARNING
The function is supplementary driver sup-
port intended to facilitate driving and
make it safer – it cannot handle all situa-
tions in all traffic, weather and road condi-
tions.
The driver is advised to read all sections
in the Owner's Manual that relate to this
function to learn about factors such as its
limitations and what the driver should be
aware of before using the system.
Driver support functions are not a substi-
tute for the driver's attention and judge-
ment. The driver is always responsible for

Using engine braking instead of the
foot brake
With Cruise Control, speed is regulated with less
frequent application of the foot brake. On a
downhill gradient it may sometimes be desirable
to start moving a little faster and limit the acceler-
ation by engine braking. In this case the driver
can temporarily disable foot brake application by
Cruise Control.
To do so, proceed as follows:
Depress the accelerator pedal about halfway
down and release.
> Cruise Control will disengage its auto-
matic foot braking and then uses engine
braking only.

Adaptive cruise control*
33
The adaptive cruise control (ACC
34
) helps the
driver to maintain an even speed combined with
a pre-selected time interval to the vehicle ahead.
An adaptive cruise control can provide a more
relaxing driving experience on long journeys on
motorways and long straight main roads in
smooth traffic flows.
The camera and radar unit measures the distance to the
vehicle ahead.
The driver selects the desired speed and a time
interval to the vehicle ahead. If the camera and
radar unit detects a slower vehicle in front of the
car, the speed is adapted automatically via the
preset time interval to the vehicle. When the road
is clear again the car returns to the selected
speed.
WARNING
The function is supplementary driver sup-
port intended to facilitate driving and
make it safer – it cannot handle all situa-
tions in all traffic, weather and road condi-
tions.
The driver is advised to read all sections
in the Owner's Manual that relate to this
function to learn about factors such as its
limitations and what the driver should be
aware of before using the system.
Driver support functions are not a substi-
tute for the driver's attention and judge-
ment. The driver is always responsible for
ensuring the car is driven in a safe man-
ner, at the appropriate speed, with an
appropriate distance to other vehicles,
and in accordance with current traffic
rules and regulations.
Adaptive Cruise Control regulates the speed with
acceleration and braking. It is normal for the
brakes to emit a low sound when they are being
used to adjust the speed.
The adaptive cruise control aims to control the
speed in a smooth way. In situations that demand
sudden braking the driver must brake himself/
herself. This applies in cases of large speed dif-
ferences or if the vehicle in front brakes sud-
denly. Due to the limitations of the radar unit,
braking may come unexpectedly or not at all.
The adaptive cruise control aims to follow the
vehicle ahead in the same lane at a time interval
set by the driver. If the radar unit cannot see any
vehicle in front then the car will instead maintain
the speed set and stored by the driver. This also
takes place if the speed of the vehicle ahead
increases and exceeds the stored speed.

This function can be either standard or optional, depending on market.

The function does not brake for humans
or animals, and not for small vehicles
such as bicycles and motorcycles. Nor for
low trailers, oncoming, slow or stationary
vehicles and objects.
Do not use the function in demanding sit-
uations, such as in city traffic, at junctions,
on slippery surfaces, with a lot of water or
slush on the road, in heavy rain/snow, in
poor visibility, on winding roads or on slip
roads.

The camera and radar unit measures the distance to the
vehicle ahead and detects side markings.
Camera and radar unit
Distance readers
Readers, side markings
The driver selects the desired speed and a time
interval to the vehicle ahead. Pilot Assist scans
the distance to the vehicle ahead and the lane's
side markings on the road surface using the
camera and radar unit. The preset time interval is
maintained with automatic speed adjustment
whilst the steering assistance helps to position
the car in the lane.
Pilot Assist steering assistance takes into
account the speed of the preceding car and the
lane markings. The driver can at any time ignore
the Pilot Assist steering recommendation and
steer in another direction, e.g. to change lane or
avoid an obstruction on the road.
If Pilot Assist cannot interpret the lane unambig-
uously, e.g. if the camera and radar unit does not
see the lane's side markings, Pilot Assist tempo-
rarily deactivates steering assistance, but
resumes it if the lane can be interpreted again -
although the speed and distance control func-
tions remain active.
WARNING
Pilot Assist steering assistance is automati-
cally deactivated and is resumed without prior
warning.
The current status of steering
assistance is indicated by the
colour of the steering wheel's
symbol:
• GREEN steering wheel indi-
cates active steering assis-
tance
• GREY steering wheel (as in illustration) indi-
cates deactivated steering assistance.
WARNING
Pilot Assist must only be used if there are
clear lane lines painted on each side of the
lane. All other use involves increased risk of
contact with surrounding obstacles that can-
not be detected by the function.

DRIVER SUPPORT
288
WARNING
The function is supplementary driver sup-
port intended to facilitate driving and
make it safer – it cannot handle all situa-
tions in all traffic, weather and road condi-
tions.
The driver is advised to read all sections
in the Owner's Manual that relate to this
function to learn about factors such as its
limitations and what the driver should be
aware of before using the system.
Driver support functions are not a substi-
tute for the driver's attention and judge-
ment. The driver is always responsible for
ensuring the car is driven in a safe man-
ner, at the appropriate speed, with an
appropriate distance to other vehicles,
and in accordance with current traffic
rules and regulations.
Pilot Assist regulates the speed with acceleration
and braking. It is normal for the brakes to emit a
low sound when they are being used to adjust
the speed.
Pilot Assist attempts to regulate the speed
smoothly. In situations that demand sudden brak-
ing the driver must brake himself/herself. This
applies in cases of large speed differences or if
the car in front brakes suddenly. Due to the limi-
tations of the camera and radar unit, braking may
come unexpectedly or not at all.
Pilot Assist aims to follow the vehicle ahead in
the same lane at a time interval set by the driver.
If the radar unit cannot see any vehicle in front
then the car will instead maintain the speed set
and stored by the driver. This also takes place if
the speed of the vehicle ahead increases and
exceeds the stored speed.
WARNING
This is not a collision avoidance system.
The driver is always responsible and must
intervene if the system does not detect a
vehicle ahead.
The function does not brake for humans
or animals, and not for small vehicles
such as bicycles and motorcycles. Nor for
low trailers, oncoming, slow or stationary
vehicles and objects.
Do not use the function in demanding sit-
uations, such as in city traffic, at junctions,
on slippery surfaces, with a lot of water or
slush on the road, in heavy rain/snow, in
poor visibility, on winding roads or on slip
roads.
IMPORTANT
Maintenance of driver support components
may only be performed at a workshop
44
.
Round bends and when the road splits
Pilot Assist interacts with the driver, who should
therefore not wait for the steering assistance
from Pilot Assist but should always be prepared
to increase his/her own steering input, especially
in bends.
When the car approaches an exit or if the
lane splits, the driver should steer towards
the desired lane in order to specify the
desired direction to Pilot Assist.
Pilot Assist strives to keep the car in
the middle of the lane
When Pilot Assist helps to steer, it strives to posi-
tion the car in between the lane markings and
therefore it is recommended to let the car find
the optimal placement to achieve as smooth a
driving experience as possible. The driver checks
that the car is positioned safely in the lane, and
always has the ability to adjust the position by
making his/her own steering corrections.
If Pilot Assist does not position the car in an
appropriate way in the lane, it is recom-
mended to turn Pilot Assist off or switch to
Adaptive cruise control.
44
An authorised Volvo workshop is recommended.

Activating and starting Pilot Assist
Pilot Assist must first be activated and then
started to be able to control speed and distance
and to give steering assistance.
NOTE: The illustration is schematic - details may vary
depending on car model.
In order to start the Pilot Assist it is required that:
The driver's seatbelt must be buckled and
the driver's door must be closed.
There must be a vehicle (the "target vehicle")
within reasonable distance in front of the car,
or the current speed must be at least
15 km/h (9 mph).
For cars with manual gearbox. Speed must
be at the lowest 30 km/h (20 mph).
With the adaptive cruise control in standby
mode:
1.
Press the steering wheel button (6).
>
The
symbol changes to Pilot Assist
in standby mode (8).
2.
Press the steering wheel button

With the Adaptive cruise control started:
Press the steering wheel button (6).
> Pilot Assist is started.
Pilot Assist steering assistance
is only active when the steering
wheel symbol (2) has changed
from GREY to GREEN.
Pilot Assist only regulates the
time interval to the vehicle
ahead when the distance symbol shows a vehicle
(1) above the steering wheel symbol.
At the same time a speed
range is marked.
The higher speed is the
stored/selected speed and the
lower speed is that of the vehi-
cle ahead (target vehicle).

Hands on the steering wheel
In order for Pilot Assist to function, the driver’s
hands must be on the steering wheel.
If Pilot Assist detects that the
driver is not holding the steer-
ing wheel, the driver is promp-
ted after a pause to actively
steer the car, via a symbol and
a text message.
If the driver's hands still cannot be detected on
the steering wheel after a few seconds, the
prompt to actively steer the car is repeated, sup-
plemented by an acoustic warning signal.
If Pilot Assist cannot detect the driver's hands on
the steering wheel after a further few seconds,
the warning signal becomes intensive and the
steering function is deactivated. Pilot Assist must
then be restarted using the steering wheel button
.
NOTE
Note that Pilot Assist only works when the
driver has hands on the steering wheel.

Standby mode on driver intervention
Pilot Assist is temporarily deactivated and set in
standby mode if:
the foot brake is used.
the gear selector is moved to N position.
the direction indicators are used for longer
than 1 minute.
the driver maintains a speed higher than the
stored speed for longer than 1 minute.
the clutch pedal is depressed for
approx. 1 minute - applies to cars with man-
ual gearbox.
A temporary increase in speed with the accelera-
tor pedal, e.g. during overtaking, does not affect
the setting - the car returns to the last stored
speed when the accelerator pedal is released.
When the direction indicators are used, Pilot
Assist steering assistance is temporarily disen-
gaged. When this is no longer the case, steering
assistance is automatically reactivated if the
lane's side markings can still be detected.
Automatic standby mode
Pilot Assist is dependent on other systems, e.g.
stability control/anti-skid ESC
45
. If any of these
other systems stops working, Pilot Assist is
switched off automatically.
WARNING
With automatic standby mode, the driver is
warned via an acoustic signal and a message
on the driver display.
The driver must then regulate the car's
speed, apply the brakes as needed and
maintain a safe distance to other vehicles.
Automatic standby mode may occur if, for exam-
ple:
the driver opens the door.
brake temperature is high.
the driver's hands are not on the steering
wheel.
the parking brake is applied.
engine speed is too low/high.
the driver takes off the seatbelt.
one or more wheels lose traction.
the camera and radar unit is covered by e.g.
snow or heavy rainfall (camera lens/radio
waves are blocked).
the speed is below 5 km/h (3 mph) and Pilot
Assist is uncertain whether the vehicle ahead
is a stationary vehicle or an object, such as a
speed bump.
the speed is below 5 km/h (3 mph) and the
vehicle ahead turns off so that Pilot Assist no
longer has a vehicle to follow.
speed is reduced to below 30 km/h
(20 mph) - only applies to cars with manual
gearbox.
Reactivating Pilot Assist from the
standby mode
NOTE: The illustration is schematic - details may vary

Limitations of Pilot Assist
The Pilot Assist function may have limitations in
certain situations.
The Pilot Assist function is an aid which can help
the driver in many situations. But the driver is at
all times responsible for maintaining a safe dis-
tance to surrounding objects and a correct posi-
tion in the lane.
WARNING
In certain situations, Pilot Assist steering
assistance may have difficulty helping the
driver in the right way or it may be automati-
cally deactivated - in which case, the use of
Pilot Assist is not recommended. Examples of
such situations may be that:
the lane markings are worn, missing or
cross each other.
lane division is unclear, for example, when
the lanes divide or merge or at exits or in
the event of multiple sets of markings.
edges or other lines than lane markings
are present on or near the road, e.g.
kerbs, joints or repairs to the road sur-
face, edges of barriers, roadside edges or
strong shadows.
the lane is narrow or winding.
the lane contains ridges or holes.
weather conditions are poor, e.g. rain,
snow or fog or slush or impaired view with
poor light conditions, back-lighting, wet
road surface etc.
The driver should also note that Pilot Assist
has the following limitations:
High kerbs, roadside barriers, temporary
obstacles (traffic cones, safety barriers,
etc.) are not detected. Alternatively, they
may be detected incorrectly as lane mark-
ings, with a subsequent risk of contact

294
between the car and such obstacles. The
driver must ensure him/herself that the
car is at a suitable distance from such
obstacles.
The camera and radar sensor does not
have the capacity to detect all oncoming
objects and obstacles in traffic environ-
ments, e.g. potholes, stationary obstacles
or objects which completely or partially
block the route.
Pilot Assist does not "see" pedestrians,
animals, etc.
The recommended steering input is force
limited, which means that it cannot always
help the driver to steer and keep the car
within the lane.
In cars equipped with Sensus Navigation*,
the function has the option of using infor-
mation from map data, which may result
in varied performance.
Pilot Assist is switched off if the power
steering for speed related steering force
is working with reduced power – e.g. dur-
ing cooling due to overheating.
The driver always has the possibility of correcting
or adjusting a steering intervention imposed by
Pilot Assist and can turn the steering wheel to
the desired position.
Steep roads and/or heavy load
Bear in mind that Pilot Assist is primarily
intended for use when driving on level road surfa-
ces. The function may have difficulty in keeping
the correct distance from the vehicle ahead when
driving on steep downhill slopes - in which case,
be extra attentive and ready to brake.
Do not use Pilot Assist if the car has a heavy
load or a trailer is connected to the car.
NOTE
Pilot Assist cannot be activated if a trailer,
bicycle rack or similar is connected to the
car's electrical system.
Miscellaneous
Off Road drive mode cannot be selected
when Pilot Assist is activated.
NOTE
This function uses the car's camera and radar
units, which have certain general limitations.

more heavily than the driver support is capable of
and the driver does not brake, the warning lamp
and acoustic warning are activated to alert the
driver that immediate intervention is required.
WARNING
The driver support systems only warn of vehi-

Change of target with driver support
The driver supports of Adaptive Cruise Control
(ACC)*
49
and Pilot Assist, in combination with
automatic transmission, have a change of target
function at certain speeds.
Change of target
If the target vehicle in front suddenly turns then there
may be stationary traffic in front.
When the driver supports are following another
vehicle at speeds below 30 km/h (20 mph) and
changes target vehicle – from a moving vehicle to
a stationary vehicle – the driver supports will slow
down for the stationary vehicle.
WARNING
When the driver supports are following
another vehicle at speeds in excess of
approx. 30 km/h (20 mph) and the target is
changed from a moving vehicle to a stationary
vehicle, the driver supports will ignore the
stationary vehicle and instead accelerate to
the stored speed.
The driver must then intervene him/
herself and brake.
Automatic standby mode with change of
target
The driver supports are disengaged and set in
standby mode:
when the speed is below 5 km/h (3 mph)
and the driver supports are uncertain
whether the target object is a stationary vehi-
cle or another object, such as a speed bump.
when the speed is below 5 km/h (3 mph)
and the vehicle ahead turns off so that the
driver supports no longer have a vehicle to
follow.

order to allow the car to follow the vehicle in front
smoothly and comfortably. At low speed, when
the distances are short, the adaptive cruise con-
trol increases the time interval slightly.
NOTE
The higher the speed the longer the cal-
culated distance in metres for a given
time interval.
Only use the time intervals permitted by
local traffic regulations.
If the driver supports do not seem to
respond with a speed increase when acti-
vated, it may be because the time window
to the vehicle ahead is shorter than the
set time window.
WARNING
Only use a time window that suits the
current traffic conditions.
The driver should be aware that short
time windows limit the amount of time
available to react and take action in an

For shorter stops in connection with inching in
slow traffic or at traffic lights, driving is automati-
cally resumed if the stops do not exceed
approx. 3 seconds - if it takes longer before the
vehicle in front starts moving again then the
driver support function is set in standby mode
with automatic braking.
The function is reactivated in one of the fol-
lowing ways:
Press the steering wheel button
.
Depress the accelerator pedal.
> The function resumes following the vehi-
cle ahead if it starts moving forward within
approx. 6 seconds.
NOTE
The driver supports can hold the car station-
ary for a maximum of 10 minutes – then the
parking brake is applied and the function is

Before the driver supports can be reactivated,
the parking brake must be released.
Cessation of automatic braking
In some situations, automatic braking ceases on
coming to a standstill and the function is set in
standby mode. This means that the brakes are
released and the car may start to roll - the driver
must therefore intervene and brake the car him-
self/herself to keep it stationary.

Overtaking Assistance
Overtaking Assistance can help the driver when
overtaking other vehicles. This function can be
used with Pilot Assist or adaptive cruise control*
(ACC
53
).
How overtaking assistance works
When Pilot Assist or ACC is following another
vehicle and the driver indicates the intention to
overtake by activating the direction indicator
54
,
the systems help by accelerating the vehicle
towards the vehicle in front before the driver’s
vehicle reaches the overtaking lane.
The function then delays reducing speed in order
to avoid premature braking when the driver’s car
is approaching a slower vehicle.
The function remains active until the driver’s vehi-
cle has cleared the overtaken vehicle.
WARNING
Be aware that this function can be activated
in more situations than during overtaking, e.g.
when a direction indicator is used to indicate
a change of lane or exit to another road – the
car will then accelerate briefly.

Use Overtaking Assistance
There are a number of criteria if Overtaking
Assistance is to be used.
The following conditions must exist for Overtak-
ing Assistance to be activated:
there must be a vehicle in front (the “target
vehicle”)
your car's current speed is at least 70 km/h
(43 mph)
the stored speed must be high enough for
overtaking to take place safely.
To start the Overtaking Assistance:
Activate the direction indicator.
Use the left-hand direction indicator in a left-
hand drive car right in a right-hand drive car.
> Overtaking Assistance is started.
WARNING
When using the Overtaking Assistance Sys-
tem, the driver should be aware that there
may be undesired acceleration if the condi-
tions suddenly change.
Some situations should therefore be avoided,
such as if:
the car is approaching an exit for turn-of
that is in the same direction as overtaking
would normally occur
the vehicle ahead slows down before the
driver's car has crossed over into the
overtaking lane.
the traffic in the overtaking lane slows
down.
a right-hand drive car is driven in a county

Limitations for camera and radar
unit
The camera and radar unit has certain limitations
– which in turn also limit those functions that use
the unit. A driver should be aware about the fol-
lowing examples of limitations.
Camera and radar
Blocked unit
The marked area must be cleaned regularly and kept
free from stickers, objects, shade film, etc.
The camera unit is placed inside the upper sec-
tion of the windscreen together with the car's
radar unit.
Do not place, stick or mount anything on the
inside or outside of the windscreen, in front of or
around the camera and radar unit – this may
interfere with camera and radar-based functions.
This may result functions being reduced, being
switched off completely or giving incorrect func-
tion responses.
If the driver display shows this symbol
and the message "
Windscreen
sensor Sensor blocked, see
Owner's manual", this means that the
camera and radar unit cannot detect other vehi-
cles, cyclists, pedestrians and large animals in
front of the car, and that the car's camera-based
and radar-based functions may be disrupted,
reduced, completely deactivated or give an incor-
rect function response.
The following table presents examples of possi-
ble causes for a message being shown, along
with the appropriate action:
Cause Action
The windscreen surface in front of the camera and radar unit is dirty or
covered with ice or snow.
Clean dirt, ice and snow from the windscreen surface in front of the camera and
radar unit.
Thick fog and heavy rain or snow block the radar signals or the camera
view.
No action. Sometimes the unit does not work during heavy rain or snowfall.
DRIVER SUPPORT
}}
311
Cause Action
Water or snow from the road surface swirls up and blocks the radar
signals or camera view.
No action. Sometimes the unit does not work on a very wet or snow-covered road
surface.
Dirt has appeared between the inside of the windscreen and the cam-
era and radar unit.
Visit a workshop to have the windscreen inside the unit's cover cleaned - an
authorised Volvo workshop is recommended.
Strong oncoming light No action. The camera unit is reset automatically in more favourable light condi-
tions.
High temperature
At very high temperatures the camera and radar
unit can temporarily be switched off for
about 15 minutes after the engine is started so
as to protect the unit's electronics. The camera
and radar unit restarts automatically when the
temperature has fallen sufficiently.
Damaged windscreen
NOTE
If not rectified it can lead to reduced perform-
ance for the driver support systems that use
the camera and radar unit. This may result
functions being reduced, being switched off
completely or giving incorrect function
responses.
The following is also applicable so as not to risk
incorrect or reduced function or function failure
for the driver supports that use the radar unit:
If a scratch, crack or stone chip appears on
the windscreen in front of any of the "win-
dows" for the camera and radar unit and cov-
ers an area of approx. 0.5 × 3.0 mm
(0.02 × 0.12 in.) or more, a workshop
58
must
be contacted so that the windscreen can be
replaced.
Volvo recommends not repairing cracks,
scratches or stone chips in the area in front
of the camera and radar unit – the entire
windscreen should be replaced instead.
Before replacing a windscreen, contact a
workshop
58
to verify that the correct wind-
screen has been ordered and will be fitted.
The same type of windscreen wipers or wind-
screen wipers approved by Volvo must be fit-
ted when the windscreen is replaced.
When replacing the windscreen, the camera
and radar unit must be recalibrated by a
workshop
58
to ensure that all the camera
and radar-based systems in the car function.
Radar
Vehicle speed
The radar unit's ability to detect a vehicle ahead
is greatly reduced if the speed of the vehicle
ahead is very different to the speed of your own
car.
58
An authorised Volvo workshop is recommended.

312
Limited field of vision
The radar unit has a limited field of vision. In
some situations another vehicle is not detected,
or the detection is made later than expected.
The radar unit's field of vision.
Sometimes the radar unit is late at detecting
vehicles at close distances - e.g. a vehicle
that drives in between your car and the vehi-
cle ahead.
Small vehicles, such as motorcycles, or vehi-
cles not driving in the centre of the lane can
remain undetected.
In bends, the radar unit may detect the
wrong vehicle or lose a detected vehicle from
view.
Low trailers
Low trailer in radar shadow.
Low trailers can also be difficult for the radar unit
to detect, or are not detected at all - the driver
should therefore be particularly careful when driv-
ing behind low trailers when the adaptive cruise
control or Pilot Assist is activated.
Camera
Impaired vision
The cameras have limitations similar to the
human eye, i.e. may "see" worse in for example
intense snowfall or rain, dense fog, heavy dust
storms and snow flurries. Under such conditions,
the functions of camera-dependent systems
could be significantly reduced or temporarily dis-
engaged.
Strong oncoming light, reflections in the carriage-
way, snow or ice on the road surface, dirty road
surfaces or unclear lane markings can also sig-
nificantly reduce camera function when it is used
to scan the carriageway to detect pedestrians,
cyclists, large animals and other vehicles.
DRIVER SUPPORT

313
Park assist camera*
Blind sectors
There are "blind" sectors between the cameras' fields of
vision.
In the park assist camera's 360° view* obstacles/
objects may "vanish" in the gaps between the
individual cameras.
WARNING
Pay attention to the possibility that, even if it
only looks like a relatively small part of the
image is obscured, a relatively large sector
could be hidden from view. An obstacle could
thereby go undetected until the car is very
close to it.
Defective camera
If a camera sector is black and
contains this symbol then it
means that the camera is out
of order.
The following illustration shows
an example.
The car's left-hand camera is out of order.
A black camera sector is also shown in the fol-
lowing instances, but then without the symbol for
defective camera:
open door
open tailgate
folded-in door mirror.
Light conditions
The camera image is adjusted automatically
according to prevailing light conditions. Because
of this, the image may vary slightly in brightness
and quality. Poor light conditions can result in
reduced image quality.
Rear parking camera
WARNING
Pay additional attention
while reversing when this
symbol is shown if a trailer,
bicycle rack or similar is
mounted and electrically
connected to the car.
The symbol indicates that
the parking assistance sensors rearward are
switched off and will not warn of any obsta-
cles.
NOTE
A bike carrier or other accessory mounted on
the rear of the car could obscure the cam-
era's view.

can alert the driver using a visual,
acoustic and brake pulse warning to help
him/her detect pedestrians, cyclists, larger ani-
mals and vehicles that suddenly appear - the car
then attempts to brake automatically unless the
driver acts within a reasonable time him/herself.
Location of the radar unit.
City Safety can prevent a collision or reduce colli-
sion speed.
City Safety is an aid to assist a driver who is at
risk of colliding with a pedestrian, large animal,
cyclist or a vehicle.
The City Safety function can help the driver to
avoid a collision when driving in queues, e.g.
when changes in the traffic ahead, combined with
a lapse in attention, could lead to an incident.
The function helps the driver by automatically
braking the car in the event of an imminent risk
of collision if the driver does not react in time by
braking and/or swerving.
City Safety activates a short, sharp braking proce-
dure, normally stopping the car just behind the
vehicle in front.
City Safety is activated in situations where the
driver should have started braking earlier, which
is why it cannot help the driver in every situation.
City Safety is designed to be activated as late as
possible in order to avoid unnecessary interven-
tion.
The driver or passengers are not normally aware
of City Safety - it only intervenes in a situation
where a collision is immediately imminent.
WARNING
The City Safety auto-brake function can
prevent a collision or reduce collision
speed, but to ensure full brake perform-
ance the driver should always depress the
brake pedal – even when the car auto-
brakes.
The warning is only activated if there is a
high risk of collision – you must therefore
never wait for a collision warning.
The warning and brake intervention for
pedestrians and cyclists are deactivated
at vehicle speeds exceeding 80 km/h
(50 mph).
City Safety does not activates any auto-
brake functions in the event of heavy
acceleration.
60
The function is not available in all markets.

DRIVER SUPPORT
316
WARNING
The function is supplementary driver sup-
port intended to facilitate driving and
make it safer – it cannot handle all situa-
tions in all traffic, weather and road condi-
tions.
The driver is advised to read all sections
in the Owner's Manual that relate to this
function to learn about factors such as its
limitations and what the driver should be
aware of before using the system.
Driver support functions are not a substi-
tute for the driver's attention and judge-
ment. The driver is always responsible for
ensuring the car is driven in a safe man-
ner, at the appropriate speed, with an
appropriate distance to other vehicles,
and in accordance with current traffic
rules and regulations.

Parameters and subfunctions for
City Safety
City Safety can avoid a collision with a vehicle, a
cyclist, a pedestrian or a larger animal in front by
reducing the car's speed with the auto-brake
function.
If the speed difference is greater than the follow-
ing specified speeds, the City Safety auto-brake
function cannot prevent a collision but mitigates
the consequences of it.
Vehicles
For a vehicle in front, City Safety can reduce the
speed by up to 60 km/h (37 mph).
cyclists
For a cyclist, City Safety can reduce the speed by
up to 50 km/h (30 mph).
Pedestrians
For a pedestrian, City Safety can reduce speed by
up to 45 km/h (28 mph).
Large animals
In the event of a risk of a collision with a large
animal, City Safety can reduce the car's speed by
up to 15 km/h (9 mph).
The brake function for large animals is primarily
intended to reduce the force of the impact at
higher speeds and is most effective at speeds
above 70 km/h (43 mph) but less effective at
lower speed.

Subfunctions for City Safety
Function overview.
Acoustic warning signal in the event of a risk
of collision
Warning signal in the event of a risk of colli-
sion
Distance measurement with the camera and
radar unit
City Safety carries out three steps in the follow-
ing order:
1. Collision warning
2. Brake support
3. Auto Brake
The following text explains what happens during
the three steps:
1 - Collision warning
The driver is first warned of a potentially immi-
nent collision.
City Safety can detect pedestrians, cyclists or
vehicles that are stationary or moving in the same
direction as the car and are ahead. City Safety
can also detect pedestrians, cyclists or large ani-
mals that are crossing the road in front of the car.
In the event of a risk of collision with a pedes-
trian, larger animal, cyclist or vehicle/vehicles the
driver's attention is alerted by means of a visual,
acoustic and brake pulse warning. There is no
brake pulse warning at lower speeds, sudden
driver braking or acceleration. The brake pulse
frequency varies according to the car's speed.
2 - Brake support
If the risk of collision has increased further after
the collision warning then the brake support is
activated.
Brake support reinforces the driver’s braking
action if the system considers that the braking is
not sufficient to avoid a collision.
3 - Auto Brake
The automatic brake function is activated last.
If in this situation the driver has not yet started to
take evasive action and the risk of collision is
imminent then the automatic braking function is
deployed - this takes place irrespective of
whether or not the driver brakes. Braking then
takes place with full brake force in order to
reduce collision speed, or with limited brake force
if it is sufficient to avoid a collision.
The seatbelt tensioner can be activated in con-
nection with the engagement of the automatic
brake function.
In some situations, the action of Auto-brake may
begin with light braking and then progress to full
brake action.
When City Safety has prevented a collision with a
stationary object, the car remains stationary in
anticipation of positive action by the driver. If the
car has been braked to avoid collision with a
slower vehicle in front, its speed is reduced to
match that of the vehicle in front.
NOTE
On cars with manual gearbox, the engine
stops when the Auto-brake function has stop-
ped the car, unless the driver has managed to
depress the clutch pedal beforehand.
The driver can always interrupt a braking inter-
vention by firmly depressing the accelerator
pedal.
NOTE
When City Safety brakes, the brake lights
come on.
||
DRIVER SUPPORT
318
When City Safety is activated and brakes the
vehicle, the driver display shows a text message
to the effect that the function is/has been active.
WARNING
City Safety must not be used by the driver to
change his/her driving style - the driver must
not rely on City Safety alone and allow it to do
the braking.
Related information
City Safety (p. 315)
Seatbelt tensioner (p. 46)
Setting the warning distance for City
Safety
City Safety is always activated but the driver can
select the warning distance for the function.
NOTE
The City Safety function cannot be deacti-
vated. It is activated automatically when the
engine/electric operation is started and
remains switched on until the engine/electric
operation is switched off.
The warning distance determines the sensitivity
of the system and regulates the distance at
which a visual, acoustic and brake pulse warning
should be deployed.
To select warning distance:
1. Select
Settings My Car IntelliSafe in
the centre display's top view.
2.
Under
City Safety Warning, select Late,
Normal or Early to set the desired warning
distance.
If the
Early setting produces too many warnings,
which could be perceived as irritating in certain
situations, the Normal or Late warning distance
can be selected.
When warnings are perceived as being too fre-
quent or disturbing, the warning distance can be
reduced, which reduces the total number of
warnings and instead leads to City Safety giving a
warning at a later stage.
The
Late warning distance should therefore only
be used in exceptional cases, as in dynamic driv-
ing.
WARNING
No automatic system can guarantee
100% correct function in all situations.
Therefore, never test City Safety by driv-
ing at people, animals or vehicles - this
may cause severe damage and injury and
risk lives.
City Safety warns the driver when there is
a risk of a collision, but it cannot shorten
the driver’s reaction time.
Even if the warning distance has been set
to
Early warnings could be perceived as
being late in certain situations, e.g. when
there are large differences in speed or if
vehicles ahead suddenly brake heavily.
With the warning distance set at
Early,
the warnings will come more in advance.
This may mean that the warnings come
more frequently than at the warning dis-
tance Normal, but it is recommended
since it can make City Safety more effec-
tive.
DRIVER SUPPORT
}}
319
NOTE
The warning with direction indicators for Rear
Collision Warning is deactivated if the warn-
ing distance for collision warning in the City
Safety function is set at the lowest level
"
Late".
The seat belt pre-tensioning and braking
functions are, however, still active.

Detection of obstacles with City
Safety
City Safety can help the driver to detect vehicles,
cyclists, large animals and pedestrians.
Vehicles
City Safety detect most vehicles that are station-
ary or moving in the same direction as the driver's
own car. This function can also detect oncoming
vehicles and cross traffic in certain cases.
In order that City Safety shall be able to detect a
vehicle in the dark, the vehicle's front and rear
lights must be working and clearly illuminated.
Cyclists
Optimal examples of what City Safety interprets as a
cyclist — with clear body outline and bicycle outline.
Optimal performance requires that the system
function that detects a cyclist must receive the
clearest possible information about the body and
bicycle outline, requiring the ability to identify the
bicycle, head, arms, shoulders, legs, upper and
lower body plus a normal human pattern of move-
ment.
If large parts of the cyclist's body or bicycle are
not visible to the function's camera then the sys-
tem cannot detect a cyclist.
For the function to be able to detect a cyclist,
he/she must be an adult and riding a bicycle
designed for adults.
WARNING
City Safety is supplementary driver support,
but it cannot detect all cyclists in all situations
and, for example, cannot see:
partially obscured cyclists.
cyclists if the background contrast of the
cyclist is poor – warning and brake inter-
ventions may then be late or not occur at
all.
cyclists wearing clothing that obscures
the body outline.
bicycles loaded with large objects.
The driver is always responsible that the vehi-
cle is driven correctly and with a safety dis-
tance adapted to the speed.

DRIVER SUPPORT
320
Pedestrians
Optimal examples of what the system regards as pedes-
trians with clear body outlines.
For optimal performance, the system function
that detects pedestrians must receive the clear-
est possible information about the body outline,
requiring the ability to identify the head, arms,
shoulders, legs, upper and lower body plus a nor-
mal human pattern of movement.
In order that it shall be possible to detect a
pedestrian there must be a contrast with the
background and this will be affected by such
things as clothes, the background and the
weather. With poor contrast the pedestrian may
either be detected late or not at all, which may
mean that warnings and braking are late or omit-
ted.
City Safety can also detect pedestrians in the
dark if they are illuminated by the car's head-
lamps.
WARNING
City Safety is supplementary driver support,
but it cannot detect all pedestrians in all sit-
uations and, for example, cannot see:
partially obscured pedestrians, people in
clothing that hides their body contour or
pedestrians shorter than 80 cm (32 in.).
pedestrians if the background contrast of
the pedestrians is poor - warning and
brake interventions may then be late or
not occur at all.
pedestrians who are carrying larger
objects.
The driver is always responsible that the vehi-
cle is driven correctly and with a safety dis-
tance adapted to the speed.
Large animals
Optimum examples of what City Safety interprets as
large animals - standing still or walking slowly and with
clear body outline.
If a large animal appears in front of your car,
Large Animal Detection, which is part of City
Safety, can warn you of the animal in certain sit-
uations and provide braking assistance.
Optimal performance requires that the system
function that detects a large animal (e.g. elk and
horse) must receive the clearest possible infor-
mation about the body outline, requiring the abil-
ity to identify the animal directly from the side in
combination with what is a normal pattern of
movement for the animal.
If parts of the animal's body are not visible to the
function's camera then the system cannot detect
the animal.

an intersection.
Sector in which City Safety can detect oncoming
crossing vehicles.
For City Safety to detect an oncoming vehicle on
a collision course, the oncoming vehicle must first
enter the sector in which City Safety can analyse
the situation.
The following further criteria must also be fulfil-
led:
your car must be travelling at no less than
4 km/h (3 mph)
your car must turn to the left in markets with
right-hand traffic (or to the right in left-hand
traffic)
the oncoming vehicle must have its head-
lamps switched on.
WARNING
Driver supports only warn of obstacles which
their radar unit has detected – hence a warn-
ing may not be given, or it may be given with a
certain delay.
Never wait for a warning or intervention.
Apply the brakes when the situation
requires.

Limitations for City Safety in cross
traffic
In some cases City Safety may have difficulty
helping the driver deal with collision risks due to
oncoming cross traffic.
Examples are:
stability control ESC intervenes in the event
of slippery driving conditions
if the oncoming vehicle is detected too late
if the oncoming vehicle is obscured by some-
thing
if the oncoming vehicle has headlamps
switched off
if the oncoming vehicle drives in an unpre-
dictable manner, for example, abruptly
changes lanes at a late stage.
NOTE
This function uses the car's camera and radar
units, which have certain general limitations.

City Safety when evasive
manoeuvres are prevented
City Safety has the facility to assist the driver by
automatically braking the car earlier when it is
not possible to avoid a collision by only steering
away.
City Safety assists the driver by continuously
attempting to anticipate whether there are
"escape routes" to the side in case a slow or sta-
tionary vehicle ahead is discovered at a late
stage.
Your car (1) "sees" no options for evading the vehicle
ahead (2) and can therefore auto-brake earlier.
Your car
Slow/stationary vehicle
City Safety does not intervene with the auto-
brake function as long as the driver him/herself
has the opportunity to avoid a collision via a
steering manoeuvre.
However, if City Safety anticipates that an evasive
manoeuvre is not possible due to traffic in an
adjacent lane, the function can assist the driver
by automatically starting to brake at an earlier
stage.

City Safety brakes for oncoming
vehicles
City Safety can assist the driver to use emer-
gency braking for an oncoming vehicle in your
car's lane.
If an oncoming vehicle enters your car's lane and
a collision is unavoidable, City Safety can reduce
the car's speed with a view to reducing the vio-
lence of the impact.
Your car
Oncoming vehicles
For this function to work, the following criteria
must be met:
your car must be travelling at more than
4 km/h (3 mph)
the road section must be straight
your car's lane must have clear lane mark-
ings
your car must be positioned straight in its
own lane
the oncoming vehicle must be within your
car's lane markings
the oncoming vehicle must have its head-
lamps switched on
this function can only handle "front to front"
collisions
this function can only detect vehicles with
four wheels.
NOTE

Limitations of City Safety
The City Safety
61
function may have limitations in
certain situations.
Surroundings
Low objects
Low-hanging objects, e.g. a flag/pennant for pro-
jecting load, or accessories such as auxiliary
lamps and bull bars that are higher than the bon-
net limit the function.
Skidding
On slippery road surfaces the braking distance is
extended, which may reduce the capacity of City
Safety to avoid a collision. In such situations, the
anti-lock brakes and the stability control ESC
62
will give the best possible braking force with
maintained stability.
Oncoming light
The visual warning signal in the windscreen may
be difficult to notice in the event of strong sun-
light, reflections, when sunglasses are being
worn or if the driver is not looking straight ahead.
Heat
In the event of high passenger compartment
temperature caused by e.g. strong sunlight, the
visual warning signal in the windscreen may be
temporarily disengaged.
The camera and radar unit's field of view
The camera's field of vision is limited, which is
why pedestrians, large animals, cyclists and vehi-
cles in some situations cannot be detected, or
they are detected later than anticipated.
Dirty vehicles may be detected later than others
and if it is dark, motorcycles may be detected late
or not at all.
If a text message in the driver display indicates
that the camera and radar unit is obstructed, City
Safety may be unable to detect pedestrians, large
animals, cyclists, vehicles or road lines ahead of
the car. This means that the functionality of City
Safety may be reduced.
However, an error message is not shown in all
situations where the windscreen sensors are
obstructed. The driver must therefore take care to
keep the area of windscreen in front of the cam-
era and radar unit clear.
IMPORTANT
Maintenance of driver support components
may only be performed at a workshop
63
.
Driver intervention
Reversing
When your own car is reversing, City Safety is
temporarily deactivated.
Low speed
City Safety is not activated at very low speeds -
below 4 km/h (3 mph) - and the system there-
fore does not intervene in situations where your
car is approaching a vehicle ahead very slowly,
e.g. when parking.
Active driver
Driver commands are always prioritised, which is
why City Safety does not intervene or postpone
warning/intervention in situations where the
driver is steering and accelerating in a decisive
manner, even if a collision is unavoidable.
Active and aware driving behaviour can therefore
delay a collision warning and intervention in order
to minimise unnecessary warnings.

Miscellaneous
WARNING
Warnings and brake interventions could
be implemented late or not at all if a traf-
fic situation or external influences mean
that the camera and radar unit cannot
detect pedestrians, cyclists, large animals
or vehicles correctly.
For vehicles to be detected at night, their
headlamps and rear lamp cluster must be
switched on and shining clearly.
The camera and radar unit has a limited
range for pedestrians and cyclists. The
system can provide effective warnings
and brake interventions as long as the
relative speed is below 50 km/h
(30 mph). For stationary or slow-moving
vehicles, warnings and brake interven-
tions are effective at vehicle speeds up to
70 km/h (43 mph). Speed reduction for
large animals is less than 15 km/h
(9 mph) and can be achieved at vehicle
speeds above 70 km/h (43 mph). The
warning and brake intervention for large
animals is less effective at lower speeds.
Warnings for stationary or slow-moving
vehicles and large animals could be dis-
engaged due to darkness or poor visibil-
ity.
Warnings and brake interventions for
pedestrians and cyclists are deactivated
at vehicle speeds exceeding 80 km/h
(50 mph).
Do not place, stick or mount anything on
the outside or inside of the windscreen in
front of or around the camera and radar
unit — this can interfere with camera-
dependent functions.
Objects, snow, ice or dirt in the area of
the camera sensor may reduce its func-
tionality, fully deactivate it or give incor-
rect function response.
NOTE
This function uses the car's camera and radar

Rear Collision Warning
64
The Rear Collision Warning
65
(RCW) function
can help the driver to avoid being hit by a vehicle
approaching from behind.
This function is activated automatically each time
the engine is started.
Drivers in vehicles behind can be warned about
an imminent collision by the function flashing
intensively with the direction indicators.
If, at a speed below 30 km/h (20 mph), the func-
tion detects that the car is in danger of being hit
from behind, the seatbelt tensioners may tension
the front seatbelts and activate the Whiplash
Protection System safety system.
Immediately before a collision from behind, this
function may also activate the foot brake in order
to reduce the forward acceleration of the car dur-
ing the collision. However, the foot brake is only
activated if the car is stationary. The foot brake
releases immediately if the accelerator pedal is
depressed.

Cross Traffic Alert
73
*
Cross Traffic Alert (CTA) is a driver support that
supplements BLIS
74
and is designed to help the
driver detect traffic crossing behind the car
when it is reversing.
The auto-brake subfunction can stop the car in
the event of a risk of collision with an unob-
served vehicle.
Principle of CTA
CTA supplements BLIS by detecting the
approach of crossing traffic during reversing,
such as when reversing out of a parking space.
CTA is primarily designed to detect vehicles. In
favourable conditions it may also be able to
detect smaller objects, such as cyclists and
pedestrians.
CTA is only active if the car rolls backwards or if
reverse gear has been selected.
If CTA senses that something is approaching
from the side, this is also indicated with:
an acoustic signal - the sound is heard in the
left-hand or right-hand speaker according to
the direction from which the object
approaches.
an illuminated icon in the
Park Assist
System graphic on the screen.
an icon on the Park assist camera top view.

graphic on the screen.
If the driver does not observe the warning
from CTA and a collision is unavoidable, the
auto-brake function takes effect to stop the
car, after which the driver display shows an
explanatory text message on why the car was
braked.
WARNING
The auto-brake subfunction can only detect
and brake for other vehicles that are moving –
not for stationary obstacles, a cyclist or a
pedestrian, for example.

Road Sign Information and sign
display*
The Road Sign Information function (RSI
84
)
shows road signs in different ways depending
on the sign and the situation.
Example
85
of detected speed information.
When the function detects a road sign with an
imposed speed limit, the driver display shows the
sign as a symbol combined with a coloured indi-
cation on the speedometer.
If the car is fitted with Sensus Navigation*,
speed-related information is also obtained from
map data, which means that the driver display
can show or change information on the speed
limit without having passed a speed-related sign.
An additional
85
sign, such as
"no overtaking", may be shown
together with the speed limit
symbol.
If the driver enters a road
marked with a no-entry sign at
the roadside, the symbol for
this sign
85
flashes on and off
on the driver display as a warn-
ing.
If the car is equipped with Sensus Navigation*,
information from map data is used to determine
whether the car is being driven in the wrong
direction.
The driver can also get an acoustic warning when
driving towards a road marked with a no-entry
sign if the
Road Sign Audio Warning function
is activated.
Speed limit or end of motorway
When the function detects an "indirect speed
limit sign" stating the end of the current speed
limit – e.g. at the end of a motorway – a symbol
appears with the corresponding road sign in the
driver's display.
If the car is equipped with Sensus Navigation*,
direct speed limit signs are normally displayed –
indirect speed limit signs are only displayed if
map data has no information on the speed limit
for the road section in question.
Example of indirect speed limit sign
85
:
End of all restrictions.
End of motorway.
The driver display symbol extinguishes after
10-30 seconds and remains so until the next
speed related sign is passed.
Changed speed limit
When passing a direct speed limit sign when a
speed limit changes, a symbol with the corres-
ponding road sign appears in the driver's display.

Example of direct speed limit
sign
85
.
The driver display symbol extinguishes after
about 5 minutes until the next speed-related sign
is passed.
If the car is fitted with Sensus Navigation*, speed
limit signs are shown in the driver display when
map data contains information on the speed limit
for the road section in question, even if no direct
sign has been passed. If there is no information
in map data, the sign goes off after
approx. 3 minutes after the last passing of a
speed limit sign.
Additional signs
Examples of additional signs
85
.
Sometimes different speed limits are signed for
the same road - an additional sign then indicates
the circumstances under which the different
speeds apply. The road section may be particu-
larly susceptible to accidents in rain and/or fog,
for example.
An additional sign relating to rain is displayed
only if the windscreen wipers are in use.
If a trailer is connected to the car's electrical sys-
tem and you pass a speed sign with the addi-
tional sign "trailer", the indicated speed will
appear on the driver display.
Some speed limits only apply
after a certain distance or at a
certain time of day. The driver's
attention is drawn to this fact
by means of a symbol for an
additional sign below the speed
symbol. The additional symbol
in the driver display will show either “DIST” or
“TIME”.
A symbol for additional sign in
the form of an empty frame
under the driver display's speed
symbol
85
means that the func-
tion has detected an additional
sign with supplementary infor-
mation for the current speed
limit.
Sign for "School" and "Children at play"
If a warning sign
85
for "School"
or "Children at play" is included
in the satellite navigator's map
data
86
, the driver display shows
a sign of this type.

If the car is equipped with Sensus Navigation*,
speed information is read from the navigation
unit in the following cases:
On detection of signs that indirectly indicate
a speed limit, such as motorway, dual car-
riageway and city limit signs.
If a previously detected speed sign is
assumed not to apply any longer, but no new
sign has been detected.

Road Sign Information with speed
warning and settings*
The subfunction
Speed Limit Warning for Road
Sign Information (RSI
87
) is optional – the driver
can choose to activate or deactivate this sub-
function.
Speed Limit Warning warns the driver when the
applicable speed limit or a preselected "top
speed" is exceeded – this warning is repeated
once after approx. 30 seconds within the same
speed limit area unless the driver reduces the
speed.
Another warning is available only when the driver
has reduced the speed by at least 5 km/h
(3 mph) and then exceeds the speed limit again,
or when the car reaches a new/different speed
limit area.
The speed warning is given by
the driver display symbol
88
showing the applicable maxi-
mum permitted speed tempo-
rarily flashing when this speed
is exceeded.
A speed warning is always
given if the speed limit is
exceeded in connection with
speed camera information.

Driver Alert Control
The Driver Alert Control (DAC) function is
intended to help make the driver aware that he
or she is starting to drive less consistently, e.g. if
the driver becomes distracted or starts to fall
asleep.
The objective for DAC is to detect slowly deterio-
rating driving ability and it is primarily intended for
major roads. The function is not intended for city
traffic.
The function is activated when speed exceeds
65 km/h (40 mph) and remains active as long as
the speed is over 60 km/h (37 mph).
DAC reads the position of the car in the lane.
A camera detects the edge markings painted on
the carriageway and compares the alignment of
the road with the driver’s steering wheel move-
ments.
The car is being driven erratically in the lane.
If driving behaviour becomes
noticeably inconsistent, the
driver is alerted by this symbol
in the driver display, combined
with an acoustic signal and the
text message
Time to take a
break.
If the car is equipped with Sensus Navigation*
and has the function
Rest Stop Guidance acti-
vated, suggestions for an appropriate place for a
break are also displayed.

DRIVER SUPPORT
345
The warning is repeated after a time if driving
behaviour has not improved.
WARNING
Driver Alert Control should not be used to
extend a period of driving. The driver should
instead plan for breaks at regular intervals
and make sure they are well rested.
WARNING
The function is supplementary driver sup-
port intended to facilitate driving and
make it safer – it cannot handle all situa-
tions in all traffic, weather and road condi-
tions.
The driver is advised to read all sections
in the Owner's Manual that relate to this
function to learn about factors such as its
limitations and what the driver should be
aware of before using the system.
Driver support functions are not a substi-
tute for the driver's attention and judge-
ment. The driver is always responsible for
ensuring the car is driven in a safe man-
ner, at the appropriate speed, with an
appropriate distance to other vehicles,
and in accordance with current traffic
rules and regulations.
WARNING
An alarm from Driver Alert Control should be
taken very seriously, as a sleepy driver is often
not aware of his/her own condition.
If the alarm sounds or you feel fatigued:
Stop the car safely as soon as possible
and rest.
Studies have shown that it is just as danger-
ous to drive while tired as it is to drive under
the influence of alcohol or other stimulants.

Limitations of Driver Alert Control
The Driver Alert Control (DAC) function may
have limitations in certain situations.
In some cases the system may issue a warning
despite driving ability not deteriorating, for exam-
ple:
in strong side winds
on rutted road surfaces.
WARNING
In some cases, driving behaviour is not affec-
ted despite driver fatigue – e.g. when using
the Pilot Assist function – resulting in the
driver not getting a warning from DAC.
It is therefore important to always stop and
take a break at the slightest feeling of fatigue,
whether the DAC function ha given a warning
or not.

Lane assistance
The function of the Lane Keeping Aid (LKA
93
) is
to help the driver to reduce the risk of the car
accidentally leaving its own lane on motorways
and similar major routes.
Lane Keeping Aid steers the car back into its
lane and/or alerts the driver with vibrations in the
steering wheel.
Lane Keeping Aid is active within the speed
range 65–200 km/h (40–125 mph) on roads
with clearly visible side lines.
On narrow roads the function may be unavailable,
in which case it goes into standby mode. The
function becomes available again when the road
is wide enough.
A camera reads the side lines of the road/lane.

the car accidentally leaving the road by actively
steering the car back onto the road.
The function is active within the speed range
65-140 km/h (40-87 mph) on roads with clearly
visible lane markings/lines.
A camera scans the edges of the road and the
painted side markings. If the car is about to leave
the side of the road, the car is steered back onto
the road and if the steering intervention is not
enough to avoid run-off, the brakes are also acti-
vated.
However, the function does not intervene with
either steering assistance or brake intervention if
the direction indicators are used. And if the func-
tion detects that the driver is actively driving the
car, activation of the function will be delayed.

highlighted sector box at the front/back, the
shorter the distance between the car and
detected obstacle.
The side sectors change colour as the distance
between the car and an object is reduced.
The shorter the distance to the obstacle, the
faster the signal sounds. Other sound from the
audio system is muted automatically.
The acoustic signal for obstacles ahead and to
the sides is active when the car is moving but
stops after the car has been stationary for
approx. 2 seconds. The acoustic signal for obsta-
cles behind is also active when the car is station-
ary.
At a distance within approx. 30 cm (1 ft) from an
obstacle behind or in front of the car, the tone is
constant and the active sensor's field closest to
the car symbol is filled.
At a distance within approx. 25 cm (0.8 ft) from
an obstacle To the sides, the tone pulses inten-
sively and the active sector field changes colour
from ORANGE to RED.
The volume of the parking assistance signal can
be adjusted while the signal is sounding by
means of the [>II] knob on the centre console.
Adjustment can also be performed in the top
view's
Settings menu option.
NOTE
Except in the sector nearest to the car
symbol, audible warnings are only given
for objects directly in the path of the car.
WARNING
The parking sensors have blind spots
where obstacles cannot be detected.
Pay particular attention if there are peo-
ple and animals near the car.
Bear in mind that the front of the car may
swing out towards oncoming traffic dur-
ing the parking manoeuvre.
WARNING
The function is supplementary driver sup-
port intended to facilitate driving and
make it safer – it cannot handle all situa-
tions in all traffic, weather and road condi-
tions.
The driver is advised to read all sections
in the Owner's Manual that relate to this
function to learn about factors such as its
limitations and what the driver should be
aware of before using the system.
Driver support functions are not a substi-
tute for the driver's attention and judge-
ment. The driver is always responsible for
ensuring the car is driven in a safe man-
ner, at the appropriate speed, with an
appropriate distance to other vehicles,
and in accordance with current traffic
rules and regulations.

Park Assist Pilot front, rear and
along the sides*
Park Assist Pilot has different behaviour depend-
ing on which part of the car is approaching an
obstacle.
Forwards
The warning signal has a constant tone at less than
approx. 30 cm (1 ft) from an obstacle.
The Parking Assistance System's front detectors
are activated automatically when the engine is
started. They are active at speeds below 10 km/h
(6 mph).
The measuring range is approx. 80 cm (2.5 ft) in
front of the car.
NOTE
Parking assistance is deactivated when the
parking brake is used or P mode is selected
in a car with an automatic gearbox.
IMPORTANT
When auxiliary lamps are fitted: Remember
that these must not obscure the sensors - the
auxiliary lamps may then be perceived as an
obstacle.
Backwards
The warning signal has a constant tone at less than
approx. 30 cm (1 ft) from an obstacle.
The sensors for reverse are activated if the car
rolls backward without a gear engaged or when
the gear lever is moved to reverse position.
DRIVER SUPPORT
* Option/accessory.
361
The measuring range is approx. 1.5 metres (5 ft)
behind the car.
When reversing with a trailer connected to the
car's electrical system, parking assistance back-
ward is deactivated automatically.
NOTE
When reversing with e.g. a trailer or bike car-
rier on the towbar - without Volvo genuine
trailer wiring - parking assistance may need to
be switched off manually in order that the
sensors do not react to them.
Along the sides
The warning signal pulses intensively at less than
approx. 25 cm (0.8 ft) from an obstacle.
Parking assistance side sensors are activated
automatically when the engine is started. They
are active at speeds below 10 km/h (6 mph).
The measuring range is approx. 25 cm (0.8 ft)
from the sides.
However, the detection range of the side sensors
increases significantly when the steering angle of
the front wheels is increased, and obstacles of up
to approx. 90 cm (3 ft) located diagonally behind
or in front of the vehicle are detected when the
steering wheel is turned.

Limitations of Parking assistance
The Parking Assistance System cannot detect
everything in all situations and may therefore
have limited functionality in some cases.
A driver should be aware about the following
examples of Park Assist Pilot's limitations:
WARNING
Pay additional attention
while reversing when this
symbol is shown if a trailer,
bicycle rack or similar is
mounted and electrically
connected to the car.
The symbol indicates that
the parking assistance sensors rearward are
switched off and will not warn of any obsta-
cles.
IMPORTANT
Objects e.g. chains, thin glossy poles or low
barriers may be in the "signal shadow" and
are then temporarily not detected by the sen-
sors - the pulsating tone may then unexpect-
edly stop instead of changing over to the
expected constant tone.
The sensors cannot detect high objects, such
as projecting loading docks.
In such situations, pay extra attention and
manoeuvre/reposition the car particularly
slowly or stop the current parking
manoeuvre - there may be a high risk of
damage to vehicles or other objects since
information from the sensors is not
always reliable in such situations.
IMPORTANT
In certain conditions the parking assistance
system may produce incorrect warning sig-
nals that are caused by external sound
sources with the same ultrasonic frequencies
that the system works with.
Examples of such sources include horns, wet
tyres on asphalt, pneumatic brakes, exhaust
noises from motorcycles, etc.
NOTE
Since a towbar is configured with the car's
electrical system, towbar protrusion is
included when the function measures the dis-
tance to an object behind the car.

The 360° view function activates all parking
cameras, whereupon the four sides of the car are
shown simultaneously in the centre display, which
helps the driver to observe what is around the car
when manoeuvring at slow speeds.
From the 360° view, each camera view can be
activated separately:
Press the screen for the desired “field of
vision” of the camera, e.g. on the surface in
front of/above the front camera.
A camera symbol on the centre
display's car symbol indicates
which of the cameras is active.
If the car is also equipped with Park Assist
System
* then distance to detected obstacles is
illustrated with fields in different colours.
The cameras can be activated automatically or
manually.
Backwards
The backwards-facing camera is fitted above the regis-
tration plate.
The backward-facing camera shows a wide area
behind the car. For certain models, part of the
bumper can be seen as well as the towbar in
some cases.
Objects shown in the centre display may appear
slightly tilted — this is normal.
Forwards
The forwards parking camera is located in the grille.
The front camera can be helpful on an exit road
with limited visibility to the sides, e.g. when there
are high hedges. It is active at speeds up to
25 km/h (16 mph) - following which, the front
camera is switched off.
If the car does not reach 50 km/h (30 mph) and

Example of park assist lines.
Park assist lines show the intended route for the
car's external dimensions with the current steer-
ing wheel angle - this facilitates parallel parking,
reversing into tight spaces and when connecting
a trailer.
The lines on the screen are projected as if they
were at ground level behind the car and respond
directly to steering wheel movements, showing
the driver the path the car will take - also when
the car is turning.
These park assist lines include the car's most
protruding parts, e.g. towbar, door mirrors and
corners.
NOTE
When reversing with a trailer which is not
connected electrically to the car, the park
assist lines on the display show the route
the car will take – not the trailer.
The screen shows no park assist lines
when a trailer is connected electrically to
the car's electrical system.

if the driver moves the steering wheel
if the car is driven too quickly - above 7 km/h
(4 mph)
if the driver presses
Cancel in the centre
display
when the anti-lock brakes or the Electronic
stability control are engaged - e.g. when a
wheel loses grip on a slippery road
as the steering servo for speed-dependent
steering wheel resistance is working at
reduced power – e.g. when cooling due to
overheating.
Where applicable, a message in the centre dis-
play states the reason for a parking sequence
being discontinued.
IMPORTANT
Under certain circumstances, the function is
unable to find parking spaces - one reason
for this may be the fact that there is interfer-
ence with the sensors from external sound
sources which emit the same ultrasound fre-
quencies as those with which the system
works.
Examples of such sources include horns, wet
tyres on asphalt, pneumatic brakes and
exhaust noises from motorcycles etc.
NOTE
Dirt, ice and snow covering the sensors will
reduce their function and may prevent meas-
urement.
Driver responsibility
The driver should bear in mind that the function is
an aid – not an infallible, fully-automatic function.
The driver must therefore be prepared to inter-
rupt a parking step.
There are also a few details to bear in mind while
parking, e.g.:
The driver is always responsible for determin-
ing whether the space selected by the func-
tion is suitable for parking.
Do not use the function if snow chains or a
spare wheel are fitted.
Do not use the function if cargo items are
protruding from the car.
Heavy rain or snow may cause the system to
measure the parking space incorrectly.
During the search and check-measurement
of the parking space, the function may miss
objects positioned deep in the parking space.
Parking spaces on narrow streets are not
always feasible, since the space required for
manoeuvring may not be sufficient.
Use approved tyres
108
with the correct tyre
pressure - this affects the ability of the func-
tion to park the car.
The function bases itself on the locations of
vehicles already parked nearby – if they are
inappropriately parked, your own car's tyres
and wheel rims may be damaged by contact
with the kerb.
108
”Approved tyres” refers to tyres of the same type and make as those fitted new on delivery from the factory.
DRIVER SUPPORT
* Option/accessory.

Perpendicular parking spaces may be missed
or offered unnecessarily if one parked car is
protruding more than other parked cars.
The function is designed for parking on
straight streets – not sharp curves or bends.
For this reason, make sure the car is parallel
to the potential parking spaces when the
function measures the space.
IMPORTANT
Changing to another approved wheel rim
and/or tyre dimension may involve a changed
tyre circumference, which means that the sys-
tem's parameters may then need to be upda-
ted. Consult a workshop - an authorised Volvo
workshop is recommended.

Starting the car
The car is started using the start button beside
the steering wheel when the remote control key
is in the passenger compartment.
Start button location.
WARNING
Before starting:
Fasten the seatbelt.
Adjust the seat, steering wheel and mir-
rors.
Make sure that the brake pedal can be
fully depressed.
The remote control key is not physically used
when starting the car since it is equipped with
support for keyless starting (Passive start).
To start the car:
1. The remote control key must be inside the
car. For cars with Passive Start, the key
needs to be located in the front part of the
passenger compartment. With the option for
keyless locking/unlocking* of the car, the key
can be anywhere in the car.
2. Hold the brake pedal depressed
1
fully. For
cars with automatic gear changing, make
sure that gear position P or N is selected.
For cars with a manual gearbox, make sure
that the gear lever is in neutral position or
that the clutch pedal is depressed.
3. Press the start button.
NOTE
For diesel-engined cars, there may be a slight
delay before starting is initiated.
When the engine is started, the starter motor
works until the engine is started or until its over-
heating protection triggers.
Backup reader's location.
If the Car key not found message is shown in
the driver display when starting, place the remote
control key by the backup reader. Then try to start
the car again.
NOTE
When the remote control key is positioned by
the backup reader, make sure that there are
no car keys, metal objects or electronic appa-
ratus by the backup reader, (e.g. mobile
phones, tablets, laptops or chargers). Several
car keys close to one another by the backup
reader may cause interference with each
other.

IMPORTANT
If the engine fails to start after 3 attempts -
wait for 3 minutes before making a further
attempt. Starting capacity increases if the bat-
tery is allowed to recover.
WARNING
Never remove the remote control key from
the car while driving or during towing.
WARNING
Always take the remote control key out from
the car when leaving the car and make sure
the car's electrical system is in ignition posi-
tion 0 - especially if there are children in the
car.
NOTE
The idling speed can be noticeably higher
than normal for certain engine types during
cold starting. This is done in order that the
emissions system can reach normal operating
temperature as quickly as possible, which
minimises exhaust emissions and protects the
environment.

Alcohol lock*
The function of the alcohol lock is to prevent the
car from being driven by individuals under the
influence of alcohol. Before the engine can be
started the driver must take a breath test that
verifies that he/she is not under the influence of
alcohol. Alcohol lock calibration takes place in
accordance with each market's limit value in
force for driving legally.
The car has an interface for the electrical con-
nection of the different makes and models of
alcohol lock recommended by Volvo. The inter-
face facilitates alcohol lock connection, and gives
the option of an integrated function including
messages related to the alcohol lock in the car's
main display. For information about a specific
alcohol lock, please refer to the owner's manual
from the respective alcohol lock manufacturer.
WARNING
The alcohol lock is an aid and does not
exempt the driver from responsibility. It is
always the responsibility of the driver to be
sober and to drive the car safely.

Brake functions
The car's brakes are used to reduce the speed
or prevent the car from rolling.
Besides the foot brake and parking brake, the car
is equipped with several automatic brake assist
functions. These can assist the driver by not
needing to keep his/her foot on the brake pedal
when stationary at a traffic light, when starting on
an uphill gradient or when driving on a downhill
gradient.
Depending on the car's equipment, the following
auto braking functions are available:
Automatic brake when stationary (Auto Hold)
Hill start assist (Hill Start Assist)
Auto braking after a collision
City Safety
Hill descent control (Hill Descent Control)*

City Safety (p. 315)
Hill descent control* (p. 413)
Foot brake
The foot brake is part of the brake system.
The car is equipped with two brake circuits. If a
brake circuit is damaged, the brake pedal will
engage deeper. Higher pressure on the pedal will
therefore be needed to produce the normal brak-
ing effect.
The driver's brake pedal pressure is assisted by a
brake servo.
WARNING
The brake servo only works when the engine
is running.
If the foot brake is used when the engine is
switched off then the pedal will feel stiff and a
higher pedal pressure must be used to brake the
car.
In very hilly terrain or when driving with a heavy
load the brakes should be relieved by using
engine braking in manual gearshift mode. Engine
braking is most efficiently used if the same gear
is used downhill as up. Use drive mode Off Road*
for increased engine braking while driving on
steep downhill gradients at low speeds.

STARTING AND DRIVING
388
Anti-lock braking system
The car has anti-lock brakes (ABS
2
), which pre-
vents the wheels from locking while braking and
allows maintained steering control. Vibration may
be felt in the brake pedal when this is engaged
and this is normal.
A short test of the ABS system is made automat-
ically after the car has been started when the
driver releases the brake pedal. A further auto-
matic test of the system may be made at low
speed. The test may be felt as pulses in the
brake pedal.
Symbols in the driver display
Symbol Specification
Check the brake fluid level. If the
level is low, fill with brake fluid and
check for the cause of the brake
fluid loss.
Constant glow for 2 seconds when
the engine is started: Automatic
function check.
Constant glow for more than 2
seconds: Fault in the ABS system.
The car's normal brake system is
still working, but without the ABS
function.
WARNING
If both the warning lamps for brake fault and
ABS fault illuminate at the same time, a fault
has occurred in the brake system.
If the level in the brake fluid reservoir is
normal at this stage, drive carefully to the
nearest workshop and have the brake
system checked - an authorised Volvo
workshop is recommended.
If the brake fluid is below the MIN level in
the brake fluid reservoir, do not drive fur-
ther before topping up the brake fluid.
The reason for the loss of brake fluid
must be investigated.

Brake assistance
The brake assist system (BAS
3
) helps to
increase brake force during braking, and can
thereby shorten the braking distance.
The system detects the way in which the driver
brakes and increases brake force where neces-
sary. The brake force can be boosted up to the
level when the ABS system is engaged. The
function is suspended when the pressure on the
brake pedal decreases.
NOTE
When BAS is activated the brake pedal low-
ers slightly more than usual, depress (hold)
the brake pedal as long as necessary.
When the brake pedal is released, all braking
ceases.

Braking on wet roads
When driving for a prolonged period of time in
heavy rain without braking, the braking effect
may be delayed slightly when next using the
brakes.
This may also be the case after a car wash. It is
then necessary to depress the brake pedal more
forcefully. You should therefore maintain a
greater distance to the vehicles in front.
Brake the car firmly after driving on wet roads or
using a car wash. This warms up the brake discs,
enabling them to dry faster and protecting them
against corrosion. Bear in mind the current traffic
situation when braking.

Braking on gritted roads (p. 389)
Braking on gritted roads
When driving on salted roads, a layer of salt may
form on the brake discs and brake linings.
This may extend braking distance. You should
therefore maintain a greater safety distance to
vehicles in front. In addition, make sure you do
the following:
Brake now and again to remove any layer of
salt. Make sure that other road users are not
put at risk by the braking.
Gently depress the brake pedal after finish-
ing driving and before starting your next trip.

Brake system maintenance
Check brake system components regularly for
wear.
To keep the car as safe and reliable as possible,
follow the Volvo service intervals as specified in
the Service and Warranty Booklet. New and
replaced brake linings and brake discs do not
provide optimal braking effect until they have
been "worn in" for a few hundred kilometres
(miles). Compensate for the reduced braking
effect by depressing the brake pedal harder.
Volvo recommends only fitting brake linings that
are approved for your Volvo.
IMPORTANT
The wear on the brake system's components
must be checked regularly.
Contact a workshop for information about the
procedure or engage a workshop to carry out
the inspection - an authorised Volvo work-
shop is recommended.

Parking brake
The parking brake prevents the car from rolling
away from stationary by means of mechanically
locking/blocking two wheels.
A faint electric motor noise can be heard when
the electrically-operated parking brake is being
applied. The noise can also be heard during the
automatic function checking of the parking brake.
If the car is stationary when the parking brake is
activated, it only acts on the rear wheels. If it is
activated when the car is moving then the normal
foot brake is used, i.e. the brake acts on all four
wheels. Brake function changes over to the rear
wheels when the car is almost stationary.

Auto braking after a collision
In the event of a collision in which the activation
level is reached for the pyrotechnic seatbelt ten-
sioners or airbags, or if a collision with a large
animal is detected, the car's brakes are automat-
ically applied. This function is to prevent or
reduce the effects of any subsequent collision.
After a serious collision there is a risk that it is no
longer possible to control and steer the car. In
order to avoid or mitigate a possible further colli-
sion with a vehicle or an object in the vehicle's
path, the auto braking system is activated auto-
matically and brakes the car in a safe manner.
Brake lights and hazard warning lights are acti-
vated during braking. When the car has stopped,
the hazard warning lights continue to flash and
the parking brake is applied.
If braking is not appropriate, e.g. if there is a risk
of being hit by following traffic, the system can be
overridden by the driver depressing the accelera-
tor pedal.
The function assumes that the brake system is
intact after the collision.
Brake assist is included in the Rear Collision
Warning and Blind Spot Information safety sys-
tems.

Gearbox
The gearbox is part of the car's powertrain
(power transmission) between engine and drive
wheels. The function of the gearbox is to change
the gear ratio depending on speed and power
requirements.
There are two main types of gearbox, manual and
automatic.
The manual gearbox has six gears and the auto-
matic gearbox has eight. The number of gear
changes means that the engine's torque and
power range can be used effectively. In the auto-
matic gearbox, two of the gears are overdrive
gears that save fuel when driving at constant
engine speed.
It is also possible to select gears manually with
the automatic gearbox. The driver display respec-

Gear positions for automatic
gearbox
With an automatic gearbox, the system chooses
the gear so that driving is optimal. The gearbox
also has a manual gearshift mode.
The driver display shows the gear position
selected:
P, R, N, D or M.
During manual gear changing, the gear being
used is also shown.
Changing gear
The gear selector is the shift-by-wire-type where
shifting is performed electronically instead of
mechanically. This means simpler shifting and
more distinct gear positions.
Change gear position by pressing the spring-loa-
ded gear selector forwards or backwards, or side-
ways for manual shifting.
Gear positions
Park position - P
The park position is activated via the P button
next to the gear selector.
Select the P position when the car is parked or
when starting the engine. The car must be sta-
tionary when the park position is selected.
To select another gear position when the park
position is selected, the brake pedal must be
depressed and the ignition position must be II.
To park - first apply the parking bake and then
select park position.
WARNING
Always use the parking brake when parking
on an inclined surface. Engaging a gear or the
automatic transmission's P position is not suf-
ficient to hold the car stationary in all situa-
tions.
NOTE
The gear selector must be in P position to
allow the car to be locked and alarmed.
Help functions
The system will change to P position automati-
cally
if the car is switched off in position D or R.
if the driver unfastens the seatbelt and opens
the driver's door when the car is running with
the gear selector in a position other than P.
To park a car without wearing the seatbelt and
with the door open - exit the P position by select-
ing R or D again.
If the car is switched off in neutral position, there
is no automatic change-over to P position. This is
to allow you to wash the car in the type of car
wash that requires the car to be rolled through
the facility.
Reverse position - R
Select position R to reverse. The car must be sta-
tionary when reverse position is selected.

STARTING AND DRIVING
* Option/accessory.
398
Neutral position - N
No gear is engaged and the engine can be
started. Apply the parking brake if the car is sta-
tionary with the gear selector in N position.
To be able to change from the neutral position to
another gear position, the brake pedal must be
depressed and the ignition position must be II.
Drive position - D
D is the normal driving position. Shifting up and
down takes place automatically based on the
level of acceleration and speed.
The car must be stationary when changing gear
from R position to D position.
Manual gearshift mode - M
The manual gearshift mode can be selected at
any time while driving. The car engine-brakes
when the accelerator pedal is released.
Select manual gear position by moving the gear
selector backwards from the D position. The
driver display shows which gear is being used.
Press the gear selector to the right to "+"
(plus) to change up one step and release it.
Press the gear selector to the left to ""
(minus) to change down one step and
release it.
Press the gear selector backwards to return
to the D position.
The gearbox automatically shifts down if the
speed decreases to a level lower than appropri-
ate for the selected gear, in order to avoid jerking
and stalling.

Kick-down function
Kick-down
6
can be used when maximum accel-
eration is needed, such as for overtaking.
When the accelerator pedal is pressed all the
way to the floor (beyond the position normally
regarded as full acceleration) a lower gear is
immediately engaged. This is known as kick-
down.
If the accelerator is released from the kick-down
position, the gearbox automatically changes up.
Safety function
To prevent over-revving of the engine, the gear-
box control program has a protective downshift
inhibitor.
The gearbox does not permit downshifting/kick-
down which would result in an engine speed high
enough to damage the engine. Nothing happens
if the driver still tries to shift down in this way at
high engine speed – the original gear remains
engaged.
On kick-down the car can shift down one or more
steps at a time, depending in engine speed. The
car shifts up when the engine has reached is
maximum engine speed in order to prevent
engine damage.

All-wheel drive*
All-wheel drive (AWD
7
) means that the car is
driving all four wheels at the same time, which
improves traction.
To achieve the best possible traction, the motive
force is distributed automatically to the wheels
with the best grip. The system continuously cal-
culates the need for torque to the rear wheels,
and can immediately redistribute up to half of the
motor's torque to the rear wheels.
All-wheel drive also has a stabilising effect at
higher speeds. Under normal driving conditions,
the majority of power is transmitted to the front
wheels. When stationary, the all-wheel drive is
always engaged in preparation for maximum trac-
tion during acceleration.
All-wheel drive characteristics vary depending on
the selected drive mode.

Some of the climate control system's set-
tings work at reduced power or are deacti-
vated.
The driver display shows information in an
ECO gauge which facilitates environmentally-
conscious and fuel-efficient driving.
Free-wheel function Eco Coast
12
The freewheel function Eco Coast means in prac-
tice that engine braking ceases, meaning in turn
that the car's kinetic energy is used to freewheel
for longer distances. When the driver releases
the accelerator pedal the gearbox is automatically
disengaged from the engine whose speed is
reduced to idling speed with reduced consump-
tion.
The function is best used where it is possible to
freewheel a long way, e.g. roads with a slight
downhill gradient or when there is a predictable
speed reduction to freewheel into a zone with a
lower speed limit.
Activating the freewheel function
The function is activated when the accelerator
pedal is fully released, in combination with the
following parameters:
Drive mode
Eco is activated.
The gear selector is in D position.
Speed within the range of
approx. 65-140 km/h (40-87 mph).
The road's downhill gradient is not steeper
than approx. 6%.
The driver display shows COASTING when the
freewheel function is being used.
Limitations
The freewheel function is not available if
engine and/or gearbox are not at normal
operating temperature
the gear selector is moved from the D posi-
tion to manual position
the speed is outside the range of
approx. 65-140 km/h (40-87 mph)
the road's downhill gradient is steeper than
approx. 6%
Manual gear changing is performed with the
steering wheel paddles*.
Deactivating and switching off the freewheel
function
In certain situations it may be desirable to deacti-
vate or switch off the function in order to use
engine braking. Examples of such situations may
be on steep downhill gradients or before an
imminent overtaking manoeuvre - in order to be
able to do it in the safest way possible.

Even without the freewheel function, it is possible
to freewheel for short distances. This, in turn,
reduces consumption. However, for the best fuel
economy it is better to have the freewheel func-
tion activated and be able to freewheel for longer
distances.
Cruise control Eco Cruise
When using the cruise control in the Eco drive
mode, the car's acceleration and deceleration will
be lower compared to other drive modes, which
enables further fuel savings. This means that the
car's speed can be slightly above or below the
set speed.
On a smooth road, the car's speed can devi-
ate from the set speed when the cruise con-
trol is active and the car free-rolls.
On a steep uphill slope, the car's speed
drops until a downshift is made
12
, then
reduced acceleration starts in order to
achieve the set speed.
On a downhill slope where the car free-rolls,
the car's speed can be slightly above or
below the set speed. The function uses nor-
mal engine braking to maintain the set
speed. The foot brake is also used if neces-
sary.
Eco gauge in the driver display
The ECO gauge indicates how fuel-efficient the
driving is:
With fuel-efficient driving, the gauge shows a
low value with the pointer in the green zone.
With non-fuel-efficient driving, e.g. during
heavy braking or heavy acceleration, the
gauge shows a high value.
The ECO gauge also has an indicator to show
how a reference driver would drive the car under
the same driving conditions. This is indicated with
the short pointer on the gauge.
ECO climate control
In the Eco drive mode, eco climate control is acti-
vated automatically in the passenger compart-
ment in order to reduce energy consumption.
NOTE
When the Eco drive mode is activated, sev-
eral parameters in the climate control sys-
tem's settings are changed, and several elec-
tricity consumer functions are reduced. Cer-
tain settings can be reset manually, but full
functionality is only regained by switching off
Eco drive mode or adapting Individual* drive
mode with full climate functionality.

Low speed control*
The low speed control function (LSC
14
) facili-
tates and improves traction for driving off-road
and on slippery surfaces, such as with a caravan
on grass or a boat trailer on a launch ramp.
In a car with drive mode button*, the function is
included in the Off Road drive mode.
The function is adapted for off-road driving and
driving with a trailer at low speed, up to approx.
40 km/h (25 mph).
With low-speed control, low gears and all-wheel
drive are prioritised, which help to avoid wheel-
spin and provides better traction on all wheels.
The accelerator pedal is less responsive in order
to facilitate traction and speed control at low
speed.
The function is activated together with hill
descent control, (HDC
15
) which means that
speed down steep hills can be controlled with the
accelerator pedal, reducing the need to use the
brake pedal. The system facilitates a low and
even speed while driving on steep downhill gradi-
ents.
NOTE
When LSC with HDC is activated, the feel of
the accelerator pedal and engine response
are changed.
NOTE
The driving mode is not designed to be used
on public roads.
NOTE
The function is deactivated when driving at
higher speeds and must be reactivated at a
lower speed, if required.

Hill descent control*
Hill descent control (HDC
16
) is a low speed
function with enhanced engine braking. The
function makes it possible to increase or reduce
the car's speed on steep downhill gradients
using only the accelerator pedal, without using
the foot brake.
In a car with drive mode button*, the function is
included in the Off Road drive mode.
Hill descent control is adapted for off-road driv-
ing at low speeds and facilitates driving on steep
downhill gradients with difficult surfaces. The
driver does not need to use the brake pedal, but
can instead focus on steering.
WARNING
HDC does not work in all situations but is
designed merely as a supplementary aid.
The driver always bears ultimate responsibility
for ensuring that the vehicle is driven safely.
Function
Hill descent control allows the car to roll at
inching speed both forward and backward, assis-
ted by the brake system. The speed can be
increased by using the accelerator pedal. When
the accelerator pedal is then released the car
slows back down to crawling speed, regardless of
the gradient of the hill and without the need for
the foot brake to be used. The brake lights are
switched on when the function is operating.
The driver can brake and reduce crawling speed,
or stop the car at any time by using the foot
brake.
The function is activated together with low speed
control (LSC
17
) which facilitates driving and
improves traction for driving off-road and on slip-
pery surfaces. The systems are designed for use
at low speed, up to approx. 40 km/h (25 mph).
Points to remember when driving with
HDC
If the function is disabled while driving on a
steep downhill gradient, the braking effect
will gradually decrease.
With automatic gearbox
HDC can be used in gear position D, R, and
with 1st or 2nd gear with manual gear
changing.
It is not possible to change to 3rd gear or
higher with manual gear changing.
With manual gearbox
HDC only brakes in 1st gear or with reverse
gear (R). There is no active braking in higher
gears even though the function is not deacti-
vated until approx. 40 km/h (25 mph).

Economical driving
Drive economically and in a more eco-friendly
way by driving gently and anticipating situations.
Adapt your driving style and speed to the prevail-
ing situation.
Note the following:
For lower fuel consumption, activate
Eco
drive mode.
Use the Eco Coast freewheel function in
Eco
drive mode – engine braking ceases, mean-
ing that the car's kinetic energy is used to
freewheel for longer distances
18
.
When driving with manual gear changing –
drive in the highest gear possible, adapted to
the current traffic situation and road – lower
engine speeds result in lower fuel consump-
tion. Use the gear shift indicator.
Drive at a steady speed and keep a good dis-
tance to other vehicles and objects to mini-
mise braking.
High speed results in increased fuel con-
sumption - the wind resistance increases
with speed.
Trip computer indication for instantaneous
fuel consumption can be helpful for driving
more economically.
Do not run the engine to operating tempera-
ture at idling speed, but rather drive with a
normal load right after starting – a cold
engine consumes more fuel than a warm
one.
If possible, avoid using the car for driving
short distances. The engine does not have
time to reach normal operating temperature,
which contributes to increased fuel con-
sumption.
Use engine braking to slow down, when it
can take place without risk to other road
users.
Drive with the correct air pressure in the
tyres and check this regularly - select ECO
tyre pressure for best results.
Choice of tyres can affect fuel consumption -
seek advice on suitable tyres from a retailer.
Remove unnecessary items from the car -
the greater the load the higher the consump-
tion.
A roof load and space box increase wind
resistance, leading to higher consumption -
remove the load carriers when not in use.
Avoid driving with open windows.
WARNING
Never switch off the engine while moving,
such as downhill, this deactivates important
systems such as the power steering and
brake servo.

functions and equipment particularly carefully.
Check that
the engine is working normally and that fuel
consumption is normal
there are no leaks (fuel, oil or other fluid)
brake force during braking is optimal
all lamps are working - adjust headlamp level
if the car is heavily laden
the tyres have sufficient tread depth and
pressure. Change to winter tyres when driv-
ing to areas where there is a risk of snowy or
icy road surfaces

Winter driving
For winter driving it is important to perform cer-
tain checks of the car in order to ensure that it
can be driven safely.
Check the following in particular before the cold
season:
The engine coolant must contain 50% glycol.
This mixture protects the engine against
frost down to approx. -35°C (-31°F). To avoid
health risks, different types of glycol must not
be mixed.
The fuel tank must be kept filled to prevent
condensation.
Engine oil viscosity is important. Oils with
lower viscosity (thinner oils) facilitate starting
in cold weather and also reduce fuel con-
sumption while the engine is cold.
IMPORTANT
Low viscosity oil must not be used for hard
driving or in hot weather.
The condition of the starter battery and
charge level must be inspected. Cold
weather places great demands on the starter
battery and its capacity is reduced by the
cold.
Use washer fluid with antifreeze to avoid ice
forming in the washer fluid reservoir.

Slippery driving conditions
To achieve optimum roadholding Volvo recom-
mends using winter tyres on all wheels if there is
a risk of snow or ice.
NOTE
The use of winter tyres is a legal requirement
in certain countries. Studded tyres are not
permitted in all countries.
Practise driving on slippery surfaces under con-
trolled conditions to learn how the car reacts.

Driving in water
Wading means the car being driven through
water, e.g. on a flooded road. Driving in water
must be performed with great caution.
The car can be driven through water to a maxi-
mum depth of 45 cm (17 inches) at no more
than walking speed. Extra caution should be
exercised when passing through flowing water.
During driving in water, maintain a low speed and
do not stop the car. When the water has been
passed, depress the brake pedal lightly and
check that full brake function is achieved. Water
and mud for example can make the brake linings
wet resulting in delayed brake function.
If necessary, clean the contacts for the elec-
tric heater and trailer coupling after driving in
water and mud.
Do not let the car stand with water over the
sills for any long period of time - this could
cause electrical malfunctions.
IMPORTANT
Engine damage can occur if water enters
the air filter.
If water enters the transmission, it
reduces the lubricating ability of the oil,
which shortens the service life of related
systems.
Damage to any component, engine,
transmission, turbocharger, differential or
its internal components caused by flood-
ing, hydrostatic locking or oil shortage, is
not covered by the warranty.
In the event of the engine stalling in
water, do not try restart - tow the car from
the water to a workshop - an authorised
Volvo workshop is recommended. Risk of
engine breakdown.

engine power and fuel consumption.
WARNING
Always avoid inhaling fuel vapour and getting
fuel splashes in the eyes.
In the event of fuel in the eyes, remove any
contact lenses and rinse the eyes in plenty of
water for at least 15 minutes and seek medi-
cal attention.
Never swallow fuel. Fuels such as petrol, bioe-
thanol and mixtures of them and diesel are
highly toxic and could cause permanent injury
or be fatal if swallowed. Seek medical atten-
tion immediately if fuel has been swallowed.
WARNING
Fuel which spills onto the ground can be igni-
ted.
Switch off the fuel-driven heater before star-
ting to refuel.
Never carry an activated mobile phone when

Petrol particle filter
Petrol cars are fitted with particle filters for more
efficient emission control.
Particles in the exhaust gases are collected in
the petrol particle filter during normal driving. In
normal driving conditions, passive regeneration
takes place, which leads to the particles being
oxidised and burned away. The filter is emptied in
this way.
If the car is driven at low speed or with repeated
cold starts in low outside temperature, active
regeneration may be necessary. Regeneration of
the particulate filter is automatic and normally
takes 10-20 minutes. There may be a smell of
burning during regeneration.
Use the parking heater in cold weather - the
engine then reaches normal operating tempera-
ture more quickly.
When driving short distances at low
speeds in a petrol car
The capacity of the emissions system is affected
by how the car is driven. It is important to drive
varying distances at different speeds to achieve
optimal performance.
Driving short distances at low speeds (or in cold
climates) frequently, where the engine does not
reach normal operating temperature, can lead to
problems that can eventually cause a malfunction
and trigger a warning message. If the vehicle is
mostly driven in city traffic, it is important to regu-
larly drive at higher speeds to allow the emissions
system to regenerate.
The car should be driven on A-roads at
speeds in excess of 60 km/h (38 mph) for at
least 20 minutes between each refuelling.

B7 is diesel with maximum
7 volume % fatty acid methyl
ester (FAME).
At low temperatures (lower than 0 °C (32 °F)) a
paraffin precipitate may form in the diesel fuel,
which may lead to starting problems. The fuel
qualities that are sold must be adapted for sea-
son and climate zone, but for extreme weather
conditions, old fuel or moving between climate
zones, paraffin precipitate may occur.
The risk of condensation in the fuel tank is
reduced if the tank is kept well filled.
When refuelling, check that the area around the
fuel filler pipe is clean. Avoid spilling fuel onto the

ation of the particulate filter is automatic and nor-
mally takes 10-20 minutes.
NOTE
The following may arise during regeneration:
a smaller reduction of engine power may
be noticed temporarily
fuel consumption may increase temporar-
ily
a smell of burning may arise.
Use the parking heater* in cold weather - the
engine then reaches normal operating tempera-

IMPORTANT
If the filter is completely filled with particles, it
may be difficult to start the engine and the fil-
ter is non-functional. Then there is a risk that
the filter will need to be replaced.

Emission control with AdBlue
®23
AdBlue is an additive used in the SCR
24
system
to reduce emissions of noxious substances from
a diesel engine.
In the SCR system, the AdBlue and the nitrous
oxide exhaust gas substance are converted to
nitrogen and water vapour, which significantly
reduces the emissions of harmful nitrous oxides.
AdBlue
AdBlue is a colourless liquid consisting of 32.5%
urea
25
in deionised water and is manufactured in
accordance with the ISO 22241 standard. It is
specially developed for SCR cleaning technology
for diesel engines.
AdBlue has its own tank in the car and is topped
up via a separate filler pipe behind the fuel filler
flap. Consumption depends on driving style, out-
side temperature and the operating temperature
of the system.
Conditions for driving with AdBlue
There must always be AdBlue of the correct
quality in the tank before the car can be started.
The SCR system is very sensitive to contami-
nants.
The emission control system continuously moni-
tors the tank level, quality and dosage of AdBlue.
If something is wrong, a message is shown in the
driver display.
STARTING AND DRIVING

IMPORTANT
AdBlue is required for the function of the
SCR system and legal emissions compliance.
It is illegal to modify or manipulate the AdBlue
supply system in any way so that no AdBlue
reagent is consumed when it is required for
legal exhaust emissions compliance. Any
such tampering may be a criminal offence
which may lead to legal prosecution actions.
It is not permitted to operate the car with an
empty AdBlue tank, since it will no longer be
compliant with the legal requirements for
exhaust emissions. Therefore, the car is
equipped with a warning system to inform
when AdBlue refilling is required. When the
fill level in the AdBlue tank is getting low,
warnings are displayed to inform that AdBlue
refilling is required.

flammable but should be handled with care
since it can irritate the eyes and skin.
Points to remember when handling
Avoid inhaling vapour as well as contact with skin
and eyes. Preferably use gloves that prevent irri-
tation to sensitive skin when handling the fluid.
WARNING
Action for first aid:
For inhalation - get fresh air.
For skin contact - wash the skin with
soap and water.
For contact with the eyes - rinse immedi-
ately with a lot of water.
For ingestion - rinse the mouth thor-
oughly. Do not induce vomiting.
Seek medical attention if the discomfort
remains or if a large quantity has been inges-
ted.
Action in the event of a spill
AdBlue spilled on the ground, the car or painted
surfaces must be rinsed thoroughly with water.
Avoid releasing into the drainage system.
Storage
AdBlue must be stored in tightly sealing original
packaging at a temperature above -11 °C (12 °F)
and below 30 °C (86 °F). The fluid must not be
stored in direct sunlight.
AdBlue freezes at -11 °C (12 °F) but can be

Checking and filling with AdBlue
®27
Check the AdBlue level regularly and top up if
the message for low AdBlue level is shown in
the driver display.
AdBlue consumption depends on driving style,
which is why filling may be necessary between
the normal service intervals. If the AdBlue tank is
allowed to drain completely then it will no longer
be possible to start the car.
NOTE
Never run the AdBlue tank dry. Fill the tank in
good time before it is empty.
If the tank is run dry, it will not be possible to
start the engine after it is switched off – not
the regular way or using aids.
The only way to be able to restart after driving
the tank empty is to refill AdBlue of specified
quality, with the minimum being the quantity
shown in the driver display.
Checking AdBlue level
1.
Open the Car Status app in the app view.
2.
Press Status to show the AdBlue level.

Overheating in the engine and drive
system
Under certain conditions, e.g. hard driving in hilly
terrain and hot climate, there is a risk that the
engine and drive system may overheat – in par-
ticular with a heavy load.
In the event of overheating, the engine's
power may be limited temporarily.
Remove any auxiliary lamps from in front of
the grille when driving in hot climates.
If the temperature in the engine's cooling
system becomes too high then a warning
symbol is illuminated and the driver display
shows the message

Overloading the starter battery
The electrical functions in the car load the starter
battery to varying degrees. Avoid using the igni-
tion position II when the car is switched off.
Instead, use ignition position I - which uses less
power.
Also, be aware of different accessories that load
the electrical system. Do not use functions which
use a lot of power when the car is switched off.
Examples of such functions are:
ventilation fan
headlamps
windscreen wiper
audio system (high volume).
If the starter battery voltage is low, a message is
shown in the driver display. The energy-saving
function then shuts down certain functions or
reduces certain functions such as the ventilation
fan and/or audio system.
In which case, charge the starter battery by
starting the car and then running it for at
least 15 minutes - starter battery charging is
more effective during driving than running
the engine at idling speed while stationary.

Using jump starting with another
battery
If the starter battery is discharged then the car
can be started with current from another battery.
Attachment points for the jump leads.
When jump starting the car, the following steps
are recommended to avoid short circuits or other
damage:
1. Set the car's electrical system in ignition
position 0.
2. Check that the donor battery has a voltage of
12 V.
3. If the donor battery is installed in another car
- switch off the donor car's engine and make
sure that the two cars do not touch each
other.
4. Connect one of the red jump lead's clamps
to the donor battery's positive terminal (1).
IMPORTANT
Connect the start cable carefully to avoid
short circuits with other components in the
engine compartment.
5. Open the positive jump-starting point's cover
(2).
6. Connect the red jump lead's other clamp
onto the car's positive jump-starting point
(2).
7. Connect one of the black jump lead's clamps
to the donor battery's negative terminal (3).
8. Connect the black jump lead's other clamp
onto the car's negative jump-starting point
(4).
9. Check that the jump lead clamps are affixed
securely so that there are no sparks during
the starting attempt.
10. Start the engine of the "donor car" and allow
it to run a few minutes at a speed slightly
higher than idle approx. 1500 rpm.
||
STARTING AND DRIVING
432
11. Start the engine in the car with the dis-
charged battery.
IMPORTANT
Do not touch the connections between cable
and car during the starting attempt. There is a
risk of sparks forming.
12. Remove the jump leads in reverse order -
first the black and then the red.
Make sure that none of the black jump lead's
clamps comes into contact with the car's
positive jump-starting point/donor battery's
positive terminal or the clamp connected to
the red jump lead.
WARNING
The battery can generate oxyhydrogen
gas, which is highly explosive. A spark can
be formed if a jump lead is connected
incorrectly, and this can be enough for
the battery to explode.
Do not connect the jump leads to any
fuel system component or any moving
part. Be careful of hot engine parts.
The battery contains sulphuric acid, which
can cause serious burns.
If sulphuric acid comes into contact with
eyes, skin or clothing, flush with large
quantities of water. If acid splashes into
the eyes - seek medical attention imme-
diately.
Never smoke near the battery.
NOTE
If the starter battery has been discharged so
much that the car has no normal electrical
functions and the engine is then jump-started
with an external battery or a battery charger,
the Start/stop function may continue to be
activated. If the Start/stop function then auto-
stops the engine shortly afterwards, there is a
great risk that engine auto-start will fail due
to insufficient battery capacity, because the
battery has not had the time to recharge.
If the car has been jump-started, or if there is
insufficient time to charge the battery with a
battery charger, the Start/stop function is
temporarily deactivated until the battery has
been recharged by the car. In an outside tem-
perature of approx. +15 °C (approx. 60 °F),
the battery needs to be charged for at least
1 hour by the car. In a lower outside tempera-
ture, the charging time may increase to
3–4 hours. The recommendation is to charge
the battery using an external battery charger.

Towbar*
The car can be equipped with a towbar that
makes it possible to tow e.g. a trailer behind the
car.
There may be different towbar variants available
for the car. Contact a Volvo dealer for more infor-
mation.
IMPORTANT
When the engine is switched off, the constant
battery voltage to the trailer connector can be
switched off automatically so as not to drain
the starter battery.
IMPORTANT
The towball needs regular cleaning and lubri-
cation with grease in order to prevent wear.
NOTE
When a hitch with a vibration damper is used,
the towball must not be lubricated.
This also applies when fitting a bicycle rack
that is clamped in around the towball.

Driving with a trailer
When driving with a trailer, there are a number of
points that are important to think about regar-
ding the towbar, the trailer and how the load is
positioned in the trailer.
Payload depends on the car's kerb weight. The
total of the weight of the passengers and all
accessories, e.g. towbar, reduces the car's pay-
load by a corresponding weight.
The car is supplied with the necessary equipment
for towing a trailer.
The car's towbar must be of an approved
type.
Distribute the load on the trailer so that the
weight on the towbar complies with the
specified maximum towball load. Towball load
is calculated as part of the car's payload.
Increase the tyre pressure to the recom-
mended pressure for a full load.
The engine is loaded more heavily than usual
when driving with a trailer.
Do not tow a heavy trailer when the car is
brand new. Wait until it has been driven at
least 1000 km (620 miles).
The brakes are loaded much more than usual
on long and steep downhill slopes. Downshift
to a lower gear when shifting manually and
adjust your speed.
Follow the regulations in force for the permit-
ted speeds and weights.
Maintain a low speed when driving with a
trailer up long, steep ascents.
The maximum indicated trailer weight only
applies to heights up to 1000 metres above
sea level (3280 ft). At higher elevations, the
engine output and the vehicle's climbing abil-
ity are reduced due to the reduced air den-
sity, and the maximum trailer load must
therefore be reduced. The weight of the car
and trailer must be decreased by 10% for
each additional 1000 m (3280 ft) or part
thereof.
Avoid driving with a trailer on inclines of more
than 12%.
NOTE
Extreme weather conditions, driving with a
trailer or driving at high altitudes, in combina-
tion with poorer fuel quality than recom-
mended, are factors that considerably
increase the car's fuel consumption.
Trailer connector
An adapter is required if the car's towbar has a
13 pin connector and the trailer has a 7 pin con-
nector. Use an adapter approved by Volvo. Make
sure the cable does not drag on the ground.
STARTING AND DRIVING
* Option/accessory.
437
IMPORTANT
When the engine is switched off, the constant
battery voltage to the trailer connector can be
switched off automatically so as not to drain
the starter battery.
Trailer weights
WARNING
Follow the stated recommendations for trailer
weights. Otherwise, the car and trailer may be
difficult to control in the event of sudden
movement and braking.
NOTE
The stated maximum permitted trailer weights
are those permitted by Volvo. National vehicle
regulations can further limit trailer weights
and speeds. Towbars can be certified for
higher towing weights than the car can
actually tow.
Level control*
The car's system for level control endeavours to
maintain a constant height regardless of load (up
to the maximum permissible weight). When the
car is stationary the rear of the car lowers slightly,
which is normal.
When driving in hilly terrain and hot
climates
Under certain circumstances, there may be a risk
of overheating when towing a trailer. If the engine
and drive system overheats, a warning symbol
comes on in the driver display and a message is
displayed.
The following applies for cars with automatic
gearbox:
The automatic gearbox selects the optimum gear
depending on load and engine speed.
Steep inclines
Do not lock the automatic gearbox in a higher
gear than the engine "can cope with" - it is not
always a good idea to drive at a high gear with
low engine speed.
Parking on a hill
1. Depress the brake pedal fully.
2. Activate the parking brake.

Trailer stability assist*
The function of trailer stability assist (TSA
31
) is to
stabilise cars towing trailers in situations where
they begin snaking. The function is included in
the stability system ESC
32
.
Reasons for snaking
The snaking phenomenon can occur with any
car/trailer combination. Snaking normally occurs
at high speeds. However, there is a risk of it
occurring at lower speeds if the trailer is overloa-
ded or the load is improperly distributed, e.g. too
far back.
In order for snaking to occur, there must be a
triggering factor, e.g.:
Car with trailer subjected to a sudden and
powerful side wind.
Car with trailer drives on an uneven road sur-
face or in a pothole.
Sweeping steering wheel movements.
If snaking has started, it could be difficult or even
impossible to suppress. This makes the car/
trailer combination difficult to control and there is
a risk that you could, for example, end up in the
wrong lane or leave the carriageway.
Trailer stability assist function
The trailer stability assist function continually
monitors the car's movements, particularly lateral
movements. If snaking is detected, the front
wheels are individually braked. This serves to sta-
bilise the car/trailer combination. This is often
enough to help the driver regain control of the
car.
If snaking is not eliminated the first time that
trailer stability assist intervenes, the car/trailer
combination is braked with all wheels and engine
power is reduced. Once snaking has been gradu-
ally suppressed and the car/trailer combination is
stable once again, the system stops regulating
and the driver once again has full control of the
car.
NOTE
The stability function is deactivated if the
driver selects Sport mode by deactivating
ESC via the menu system in the centre dis-
play.
Trailer stability assist may fail to intervene if the
driver uses severe steering wheel movements to
try to rectify the snaking because in such a situa-
tion the system cannot determine whether it is
the trailer or the driver causing the snaking.
When Trailer Stability Assist
(TSA) is operating, the ESC
symbol flashes in the driver dis-
play.

may not light up on the car. In such cases, the
rear fog lamp function switches to the trailer.
Upon activation of the rear fog lamp, check
therefore that the trailer is equipped with a rear
fog lamp to travel safely.
Checking trailer lamps*
Automatic checking
After a trailer is connected electrically, it is possi-
ble to check that the trailer lamps are working via
an automatic lamp activation. The function helps
the driver check that the trailer lamps are working
before starting off.
The car must be switched off to perform the
check.
1. When a trailer is connected to the towbar,
the

Towbar-mounted bicycle rack*
When using a bicycle rack, the bicycle racks that
Volvo has developed are recommended.
This is in order to avoid damage to the car and in
order to achieve the maximum possible safety
during a journey. Volvo's bicycle racks are availa-
ble for purchase at authorised Volvo dealers.
Carefully follow the instructions enclosed with the
bicycle rack.
Bicycle rack including load must weigh a
maximum of 75 kg (165 pounds).
The bicycle rack may be designed for a maxi-
mum of three bicycles.
WARNING
Incorrect use of the bicycle rack may cause
damage to the towbar and car.
The bicycle rack can loosen from the towbar if
it
is incorrectly fitted on the towball
is overloaded, see the bicycle rack's
instructions for maximum load weight
is used for carrying something other than
bicycles.
The car's driving characteristics are affected
when a bicycle rack is fitted on the towbar. For
example, due to:
increased weight
reduced acceleration capacity
reduced ground clearance
changed braking capacity.
Recommendations for loading bicycles
on the bicycle rack
The larger the distance between the load's cen-
tre of gravity and the towball, the greater the load
on the towbar.
Load according to the following recommenda-
tions:
Fit the heaviest bicycle furthest in, closest to
the car.
Keep the load symmetrical and as close to
the centre of the car as possible, e.g. by
loading the bicycles facing alternately if sev-
eral bicycles are loaded.
Remove loose objects from the bicycle for
transportation, e.g. bicycle basket, battery,
child seat. Partly to reduce the load on the
towbar and bicycle rack, and partly to reduce
the wind resistance, which affects fuel con-
sumption.
Do not use protective covers on the bicycles.
This may affect manoeuvrability, impair visibil-
ity and increase fuel consumption. It may also
lead to an increased load on the towbar.

Towing
During towing, the car is towed by another vehi-
cle by means of a towline.
Find out the statutory maximum speed limit for
towing before the towing begins.
Preparations and towing
IMPORTANT
Note that the car must always be towed with
the wheels rolling forward.
Do not tow cars with automatic transmis-
sion at speeds higher than 80 km/h
(50 mph) or for distances in excess of 80
km (50 miles).
WARNING
Check that the steering lock is unlocked
before towing.
Ignition position II must be active - in
ignition position I all airbags are deacti-
vated.
Always keep the remote control key in the
car when it is being towed.
WARNING
The brake servo and power steering do not
work when the engine is switched off - the
brake pedal needs to be depressed
about 5 times more heavily and the steering is
considerably heavier than normal.
1. Activate the car's hazard warning flashers.
2. Secure the towline in the towing eye.
3. Deactivate the steering lock by unlocking the
car.
4.
Set the car in ignition position II - press the
start button without depressing the brake
pedal and hold the button depressed for
approx. 4 seconds. Then release the button.
5. Move the gear selector to neutral position
and release the parking brake.
If the battery voltage is too low, the parking
brake cannot be disengaged. Connect a
donor battery if the battery voltage is too low.
> The towing vehicle can now start towing.
6. Keep the towline taut when the towing vehi-
cle reduces speed by holding your foot gen-
tly pressed on the brake pedal - thereby
avoiding unnecessary jerking.
7. Be prepared to brake to stop.
Jump starting
Do not tow the car to jump start the engine. Use
a donor battery if the starter battery is discharged
and the engine does not start.
IMPORTANT
The catalytic converter may be damaged dur-
ing attempts to tow-start the engine.

4. Screw in the towing eye until it reaches its
end stop.
Screw the eye in firmly. For example, thread
through the wheel bolt wrench* and use it as
a lever.
IMPORTANT
It is important that the towing eye is firmly
screwed into place - right in until it stops.
Points to remember before using the towing
eye
The towing eye may be used to pull the car
up onto a recovery vehicle with a flatbed plat-
form. The car's position and ground clear-
ance determine whether it is possible.
If the slope of the recovery vehicle's ramp is
too steep, or if the ground clearance under
the car is inadequate, then the car may be
damaged if you try to pull it up using the tow-
ing eye.
If necessary, raise the car by using the recov-
ery vehicle's lifting device. Do not use the
towing eye.
WARNING

Recovery
For recovery, the car is taken away with the help
of another vehicle.
Call a recovery service for recovery assistance.
The towing eye can be used to pull the car up
onto a recovery vehicle with a flatbed platform.
The car's position and ground clearance deter-
mine whether it is possible to pull it up onto a
flatbed platform. If the slope of the recovery vehi-
cle's ramp is too steep, or if the ground clearance
under the car is inadequate, then the car may be
damaged if you try to pull it up. The car should
then be lifted using the recovery vehicle's lifting
device.
WARNING
No one/nothing is allowed to remain behind
the recovery vehicle while the car pulled up
onto the flatbed platform.

Sound, media and Internet
The audio and media system consists of media
player and radio. You can also connect a phone
via Bluetooth to use handsfree functions or play
music wirelessly in the car. When the car is con-
nected to the Internet you can also use apps for
media playback.
Overview of audio and media
Control the functions with your voice, steering
wheel keypad or the centre display. The number
of speakers and amplifiers depends on which
audio system the car is equipped with.
System updating
The audio and media system is continuously
improved. When the car is connected to the Inter-
net, it is possible to download system updates for
optimal functionality, see support.volvocars.com.

The audio system is preset for optimum sound
reproduction, but it can also be adapted.
The volume is normally adjusted with the volume
control below the centre display or with the right-
hand steering wheel keypad. This applies, for
example, during playback of music, radio, ongoing
phone calls and active traffic messages.
Optimum sound reproduction
The audio system is pre-calibrated for optimum
sound reproduction by means of digital signal
processing. This calibration takes into account
loudspeakers, amplifiers, passenger compartment
acoustics, listener position, etc., for each combi-
nation of car model and audio system. There is
also a dynamic calibration that takes into account
the setting of the volume control and vehicle
speed.

RDS radio
RDS (Radio Data System) means that the radio
automatically changes to the strongest transmit-
ter. RDS provides the ability to receive e.g. traffic
information and to search for certain programme
types.
RDS links FM transmitters into a network. An FM
transmitter in such a network sends information
that gives an RDS radio the following functions:
Switch automatically to a stronger transmitter
if reception in the area is poor.
Search for programme category, e.g. pro-
gramme types or traffic information.
Receive text information on current radio
programme.
NOTE
Some radio stations do not use RDS or only
selected parts of its functionality.
When broadcasting news or traffic messages, the
radio can switch stations, interrupting the audio
source currently in use. The radio returns to the
previous audio source and volume when the set
programme type is no longer broadcast. To go
back earlier, press on the right-hand steer-
ing wheel keypad or tap
Cancel in the centre
display.

Digital radio*
Digital radio (DAB

) is a digital broadcasting
system for radio. The radio supports DAB, DAB
+ and DMB

.
The radio can be operated
using voice recognition, the
steering wheel keypad or the
centre display.
The digital radio app is
launched from app view in the
centre display.
Digital radio is played back in the same way as
other radio bands, such as FM. Besides the
option to select playback from
Stations,
Favourites and Genres, there is also the option
to select playback from subchannels and
Ensembles. An ensemble is a set of radio chan-
nels (a channel group) broadcasting on the same
frequency.
In the cases where the radio channel transmits
its logotype, it is downloaded and shown beside
the station name (download time varies).
DAB subchannel
Secondary components are usually named sub-
channels. These are temporary and can contain
e.g. translations of the main programme into
other languages. Subchannels are indicated with
an arrow symbol in the channel list.

CarPlay
®
*
Here are some useful tips for using CarPlay
®
.
Update your iOS device with the latest ver-
sion of the iOS operating system and ensure
that the apps have been updated.
In the event of a problem with CarPlay, dis-
connect the iOS device from the USB port
and reconnect. Otherwise, try to close the
app on the device that is not working and
then restart the app, or try closing all apps
and restart your device.
If the apps do not appear when CarPlay
starts (black screen), try minimising and
expanding the tile for CarPlay.
Using apps that are not compatible with
CarPlay may sometimes mean that the con-
nection between the iOS device and the car
is broken. Information about supported apps
and compatible telephone devices can be
found on the Apple website. You can also
search for CarPlay in the App Store to find
information about apps that are compatible
with CarPlay on your market.
Using Siri it is possible to write/dictate and
read out messages. Messages are read out
and dictated in the language selected in the
settings for Siri. When you write/dictate
messages, no text will be shown in the cen-
tre display, but the text is shown in the iOS
device.
If the device is connected to the car via
Bluetooth, the connection will be interrupted
when CarPlay is used. Resume the Internet
connection in the car by sharing the Internet
via the Wi-Fi hotspot from the device.
CarPlay only works with iPhone

Tips for using Android Auto*
Here are some useful tips for using Android
Auto.
Ensure that your apps are updated.
When starting the car, wait until the centre
display has started, connect the device and
then open Android Auto from the app view.
In the event of problems with Android Auto,
disconnect your Android device from the
USB port and then reconnect via USB. Oth-
erwise, try closing the app on the device and
then restarting the app.
When a device is connected to Android Auto
it is still possible to playback media via
Bluetooth to another media player. The
Bluetooth function is on when Android Auto
is used.
If the icon for Android Auto is greyed out, this
means no device is connected. When you
connect your device the icon will be illumi-
nated. If the icon is not visible at all then the
car does not have support for connecting a
device for this purpose.
If the device is connected to the car via
Bluetooth, the connection will be interrupted
when Android Auto is used. Resume the
Internet connection in the car by sharing the
Internet via the Wi-Fi hotspot from the
device.
If the car is shared by a lot of people, such as
in a car pool, it is worth noting that a maxi-
mum of 20 Android devices can be stored
simultaneously. When the list is full and a
new device is connected the oldest one is
deleted. A factory reset has to be performed
in order to clear the list.

Phone
A phone with Bluetooth can be connected wire-
lessly to the car's built-in hands-free system.
The audio and media system acts as hands-free,
with the facility to remotely control a selection of
the phone's functions. The phone can still be
operated with its own keys even if it is connected
to the car.
When a phone has been connected online and
connected with the car, it can be used make
calls, send/receive messages, play back media
wirelessly and be used as an Internet connection.
The phone is operated from the centre display,
but also via voice recognition and the app menu,
which are accessed from the right-hand steering
wheel keypad.

Factors that affect the Internet connection.
The amount of data transferred is dependent on
the services or apps in use in the car. For exam-
ple, streaming audio can require large amounts of
data which requires a good connection and good
signal strength.
Phone to car
The speed of the Internet connection may vary
depending on the location of the phone in the
car. Move the phone closer to the centre display
in order to increase the signal strength. Ensure
that there is no source of interference in
between.
Phone to network operator
The speed of the mobile network varies depend-
ing on the coverage in the present location. Poor
network coverage may occur, for example in tun-
nels, in mountainous country, in deep valleys or
indoors. The speed also depends on the agree-
ment you have with your network.
NOTE
In the event of problems with data traffic, con-
tact your network operator.

WHEELS AND TYRES
WHEELS AND TYRES
506
Tyres
Amongst other things, the function of the tyres is
to carry load, provide grip on the road surface,
dampen vibration and protect the wheel from
wear.
The tyres greatly affect the car's driving characte-
ristics. The type of tyre, dimensions, tyre pressure
and speed rating are important for how the car
performs.
The car is fitted with tyres according to the tyre
information sticker found on the driver's side door
pillar (between the front door and the rear door).
WARNING
A damaged tyre may lead to loss of control
over the car.
Recommended tyres
On delivery, the car is equipped with Volvo origi-
nal tyres that have the VOL
1
marking on the side
of the tyres. These tyres are carefully adapted to
the car. In the event of changing tyres, it is there-
fore important that the new tyres also have this
marking in order for the car's driving characteris-
tics, comfort and fuel consumption to be main-
tained.
New tyres
Tyres are perishable. After a few years they begin
to harden at the same time as the friction
capacity/characteristics gradually deteriorate. For
this reason, aim to get as fresh tyres as possible
when you replace them. This is especially impor-
tant with regard to winter tyres. The last four dig-
its in the sequence mean the week and year of
manufacture. This is the tyre's DOT marking
(Department of Transportation), and this is stated
with four digits, for example 0717. The tyre is
then manufactured in week 07, year 2017.
Tyre age
All tyres older than 6 years old should be
checked by an expert even if they seem undam-
aged. Tyres age and decompose, even if they are
hardly ever or never used. The function can
therefore be affected. This applies to all tyres that
are stored for future use. Examples of external
signs which indicate that the tyre is unsuitable for
use are cracks or discolouration.
Tyre economy
Maintain the correct tyre pressure.
Avoid fast starts, heavy braking and squeal-
ing tyres.
Tyre wear increases with speed.
Correct wheel alignment is very important.
Unbalanced wheels worsen tyre economy
and travelling comfort.
The tyres must have the same direction of
rotation during their entire service life.
When you change tyres, the tyres with the
best tread must be fitted on the rear wheels
to reduce the risk of oversteer during heavy
braking.
If you drive over kerbstones or deep holes
you can damage the tyres and/or wheel rims
permanently.
Tyre rotation
The car has no mandatory tyre rotation. Driving
style, tyre pressure, climate and road condition
affect how quickly the tyres age and wear. Cor-
rect tyre pressure results in more even wear.
To avoid differences in tread depth and to pre-
vent wear patterns forming on the tyres, the front

and rear wheels should be switched with each
other. A suitable distance for the first change is
approx. 5000 km (approx. 3100 miles) and then
at 10000 km (approx. 6200 miles) intervals.
Volvo recommends the an authorised Volvo work-
shop is contacted for checking if you are uncer-
tain about tread depth. If significant differences in
wear (> 1 mm difference in tread depth) between
tyres have already occurred, then the least worn
tyres must always be fitted on the rear. Under-
steer is normally easier to correct than oversteer,
and leads to the car continuing forwards in a
straight line rather than having the rear end skid-
ding to one side, resulting in possible complete
loss of control over the car. This is why it is
important for the rear wheels never to lose grip
before the front wheels.
Storing wheels and tyres
When you store complete wheels (tyres fitted on
wheel rims) they should be hung up or positioned
lying on their sides on the floor.
Tyres not fitted on rims must be stored lying on
their sides or standing upright, but not hung up.
IMPORTANT
Tyres should be stored in a cool, dry and dark
place, and should never be stored close to
solvents, petrol, oils, etc.
WARNING
Wheel rim size and tyre size for your
Volvo are specified to meet stringent
requirements for stability and driving cha-
racteristics. Unapproved combinations of
wheel rim size and tyre size may have a
negative effect on the car's stability and
driving characteristics.
Any damage caused by the fitting of
unapproved combinations of wheel rim
size and tyre size is not covered by the
new car warranty. Volvo accepts no liabil-
ity for death, personal injury or any costs
caused by such installations.

Speed rating
Each tyre can withstand a certain maximum
speed. Tyre speed rating, SS (Speed Symbol),
must at least correspond with the car's top
speed. The table below shows the maximum per-
mitted speed for each speed rating (SS). The
only exception to these regulations is winter
tyres
2
, where a lower speed rating may be used.
If such a tyre is selected, the car must not be
driven more quickly than the tyre is rated for. For
example, cars with Q rating tyres must be driven
at speeds not exceeding 160 km/h (100 mph).
The road conditions and applicable road traffic
rules determine how quickly the car can be
driven, not the speed rating of the tyres.
NOTE
The maximum permitted speed is specified in
the table.
Q 160 km/h (100 mph) (used only on win-
ter tyres)
T 190 km/h (118 mph)
H 210 km/h (130 mph)

WARNING
The lowest permitted tyre load index (LI) and
speed rating (SS) for the tyres for each
respective engine variant are shown in the
specifications, which can be found in the prin-
ted owner's manual. If a tyre with too low a
load index or speed rating is used, it may

Tyres' rotation direction
Tyres with a tread pattern which are designed to
only turn in one direction have the direction of
rotation marked with an arrow.
The arrow shows the tyre's direction of rotation.
The tyre must always rotate in the same
direction throughout its lifespan.
Tyres should only be switched between front
and rear positions, never between left and
right-hand sides, or vice versa.
If the tyres are fitted incorrectly, the car's
braking characteristics and capacity to force
rain and slush out of the way are adversely
affected.
Tyres with the greatest tread depth should
always be fitted to the rear of the car (to
decrease the risk of skidding).
NOTE
Make sure that both pairs of wheels have the
same type and dimension, and also the same
make.

Tyres (p. 506)
Tread wear indicators on the tyres
Tread wear indicators show the status of the
tyre's tread depth.
A tread wear indicator is a narrow elevation
across the longitudinal grooves of the tyre's tread
pattern. On the side of the tyre are the letters
TWI (Tread Wear Indicator). When the tyre's tread
depth is down to 1.6 mm (1/16 inch), the tread
will be level in height with the tread wear indica-
tors. Change to new tyres as soon as possible.
Remember that tyres with little tread depth pro-
vide very poor grip in rain and snow.

Checking tyre pressure
Correct tyre pressure helps to improve driving
stability, saves fuel and extends the service life of
the tyres.
Tyre pressure decreases over time, this is a natu-
ral phenomenon. Tyre pressure also varies
depending on ambient temperature. Driving on
tyres with tyre pressure that is too low could
result in the tyres overheating and being dam-
aged. Tyre pressure affects travelling comfort,
road noise and driving characteristics.
Check the tyre pressures monthly. Use the tyre
pressure recommended for cold tyres in order to
achieve optimal tyre performance and optimal
wear. Tyre pressure that is too low or too high
may cause uneven wear on the tyres.
WARNING
Tyre pressure that is too low is the most
common cause of tyre failure and may
result in serious cracks in the tyre, the
tread loosening or the tyre exploding, with
unexpected loss of control of the car and
increased risk of personal injury.
Tyres with pressure that is too low reduce
the load capacity of the car.
Cold tyres
The tyre pressure must be checked when the
tyres are cold. Tyres are considered cold when
they have the same temperature as the surround-
ing air. This temperature is normally reached
when the car has been parked for at least three
hours.
After having driven approximately 1.6 km (1 mile)
these tyres are considered as warm. If you have
to drive further than this to inflate the tyres, first
check and record the tyre pressure and inflate to
a suitable tyre pressure when you arrive at the
pump.
When the outside temperature changes, the tyre
pressure also changes. A decrease in tempera-
ture of 10 degrees causes the tyre pressure to
decrease 1 psi (7 kPa). Check the tyre pressure
regularly and adjust to the correct pressure,
which is specified on the car's tyre information
decal or certification label.
If you check the tyre pressure when the tyres are
warm then you must never release any air. The
tyres are warm due to driving and it is normal for
the pressure to increase above the recom-
mended pressure for cold tyres. A warm tyre with
tyre pressure equal to or below the recommenda-
tion for cold tyres may have a pressure that is far
too low.

Adjusting tyre pressure
Tyre pressure decreases over time, this is a nat-
ural phenomenon. The tyre pressure must there-
fore sometimes be adjusted in order to maintain
the recommended tyre pressure.
Use the tyre pressure recommended for cold
tyres in order to achieve optimal tyre performance
and optimal wear.
NOTE
To avoid incorrect tyre pressure, the pressure
should be checked on cold tyres. "Cold tyres"
means the tyres are the same temperature as
the ambient temperature (approx. 3 hours
after the car has been driven). After a few kil-
ometres of driving, the tyres warm up and the
pressure increases.
1. Remove the cap from the valve on one tyre
and then press the tyre pressure gauge
firmly down onto the valve.
2. Inflate the tyres to the correct pressure, see
the decal on the door pillar on the driver's
side showing the recommended pressure for
factory fitted tyres.

3. Refit the dust cap.
NOTE
After a tyre has been inflated, always refit
the dust cap in order to avoid damage to
the valve from gravel, dirt, etc.
Only use plastic dust caps. Metal dust
caps can rust and become difficult to
unscrew.
4. Check the tyres visually for any implanted
nails or other objects that could puncture the
tyre and cause leakage.
5. Check the sidewalls for any cavities, cuts,
bumps or other irregularities.
6. Repeat this for all tyres, including the spare
tyre*.
NOTE
If you have over-inflated, release air by press-
ing in the metal pin in the centre of the valve.
Then check the pressure again using the tyre
pressure gauge.
Some spare tyres require a higher tyre pres-
sure than other tyres. Check in the tyre pres-
sure table or on the tyre pressure label.

Improved fuel economy with ECO pressure
For a light load (max. 3 people) and a speed of

Tyre pressure monitoring system*
The tyre pressure monitoring system
3
, gives a
warning with an indicator symbol in the driver
display when the pressure in one or more of the
car's tyres is too low.
Symbol Explanation
The symbol illuminates to indicate
low tyre pressure.
If there is a fault in the system the
tyre pressure warning symbol
flashes for approximately one
minute and then remains illumi-
nated.
System description
The tyre pressure monitoring system measures
differences in rotation speed between the differ-
ent wheels via the ABS system in order to be
able to determine whether they have the correct
tyre pressure. If the tyre pressure is too low, the
tyre's diameter is changed and, as a result, so is
its rotation speed. By comparing the tyres with
each other the system can determine whether
one or more tyres have pressure that is too low.
General information on the tyre monitoring
system
In the information below, the tyre monitoring sys-
tem is referred to generically as TPMS.
Each tyre, including the spare tyre*, should be
checked once a month. When checking, the tyre
should be cold and have the air pressure recom-
mended by the car manufacturer specified on the
tyre pressure label or in the tyre pressure table. If
the car has tyres of a different size than that rec-
ommended by the manufacturer, find out what
the correct air pressure level is for these.
As an extra safety feature, the car is equipped
with a tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS),
which shows when the air pressure in one or
more tyres is too low. When the indicator symbol
for low air pressure is lit, stop and check the tyres
as soon as possible and inflate to the correct air
pressure.
Driving with tyres that have tyre pressure that is
too low may cause the tyre to overheat, which
can cause a puncture. Low tyre pressure also
reduces fuel efficiency as well as tyre service life,
and can affect car handling and stopping ability.
Note that TPMS does not replace regular tyre
maintenance. It is the driver's responsibility to
maintain correct tyre pressure, even if the limit for
low tyre pressure has not been reached so that
the indicator symbol illuminates.
The car is also equipped with a TPMS system
fault indicator, which indicates when the system
is not functioning correctly. The TPMS system
fault indicator is combined with the indicator sym-
bol for low tyre pressure. When the system
detects a fault, the symbol in the driver display
will flash for about one minute and then remain
illuminated. This procedure will be repeated when
the car is started until the fault has been rectified.
When the symbol is illuminated, the system's abil-
ity to detect or warn of low tyre pressure may be
affected.
A TPMS system fault can occur for several rea-
sons, such as after changing to a spare tyre, or
changing tyres or wheels that prevent TPMS from
functioning correctly.
Always check the indicator symbol for TPMS
after changing one or more tyres in order to
ensure the new tyre or wheel is working correctly
with TPMS.
Messages on the instrument panel
When the tyre pressure is too low, the indicator
symbol for low tyre pressure is illuminated in the

To bear in mind
Always save a new tyre pressure in the sys-
tem after changing a wheel or adjusting tyre
pressure.
If you change to tyres of a different size to
the ones fitted at the factory, the system
must be reset by storing a new tyre pressure
for these tyres to avoid false warnings.
If a spare wheel* is used, it is possible that
the tyre pressure monitoring system does not
work correctly due to the differences
between the wheels.
The system does not replace the need for
regular tyre inspection and maintenance.
It is not possible to switch off the tyre pres-
sure monitoring system.
WARNING
Incorrect tyre pressure may lead to tyre
failure, which could result in the driver
losing control of the car.
The system cannot indicate sudden tyre
damage in advance.

In order for the system for tyre pressure monitor-
ing

to work correctly, a reference value for the
tyre pressure must be saved. This must take
place every time the tyres are changed or the
tyre pressure is changed so that the system can
warn about low pressure correctly.
For example, when driving with a heavy load or at
high speed above 160 km/h (100 mph), the tyre
pressure should be adjusted in accordance with
Volvo's recommended tyre pressure values. The
system is then reset by saving a new tyre pres-
sure.
Perform the following procedure to store a new
tyre pressure as a reference value in the system:
1. Switch off the car.
2. Inflate the tyres to the correct pressure, see
the decal on the door pillar on the driver's
side showing the recommended pressure for
factory fitted tyres.
3. Start the car.

The jack must be correctly attached in
the jack's bracket.
Never position anything between the
ground and the jack, nor between the
jack and the car's jacking point.
Passengers must leave the car when it is
raised on the jack.
If a wheel must be changed in a traf-
ficked environment, passengers must
stand in a safe place.
Use a jack designed for the car when
changing tyres. Use supports to secure

9. Position the jack on level, firm and non-slip-
pery ground under the jacking point that will
be used.
10. Crank up until it is correctly aligned and so
that it makes contact with the car's jacking
point. Check that the head of the jack (or the
lift arms at a workshop) is correctly posi-
tioned in the jacking point so that the bump
in the centre of the head fits into the jacking
point hole and the base is positioned verti-
cally below the jacking point.
11. Turn the jack so that the crank is as far away
from the side of the car as possible, at which
point the jack's arms are perpendicular to the
direction of the car.

Instructions for fitting a wheel when changing
wheels.
NOTE
The jack included with the car is only
designed for occasional, short-term use, such
as when changing a wheel after a puncture.
Only the jack belonging to the specific model
is to be used to jack up the car. If the car is to
be jacked up more often, or for a longer time
than is required just to change a wheel, use
of a garage jack is recommended. In this
instance, follow the instructions for use that
come with the equipment.
WARNING
Apply the parking brake and set the gear
selector in Park position (P).
Chock the wheels standing on the ground
using solid wood blocks or large stones.
Check that the jack is not damaged, that
the threads are thoroughly lubricated and
that it is free from dirt.
Check that the jack is resting on a firm,
level surface that is not slippery and is
not slanted.
The jack must be correctly attached in
the jack's bracket.
Never position anything between the
ground and the jack, nor between the
jack and the car's jacking point.
Passengers must leave the car when it is
raised on the jack.
If a wheel must be changed in a traf-
ficked environment, passengers must
stand in a safe place.
Use a jack designed for the car when
changing tyres. Use supports to secure
the car for all other work.
Never crawl under the car or reach under
with a part of your body when it is raised
on a jack.
1. Clean the surfaces between wheel and hub.
2. Put on the wheel. Tighten the wheel bolts
thoroughly.
Do not use lubricant on the threads of the
wheel bolts.
3. Lower the car so that the wheels cannot
rotate.
4. Tighten the wheel bolts crosswise. It is impor-
tant that the wheel bolts are tightened prop-
erly. Tighten to 140 Nm (103 foot-pound).
Check the tightening torque with a torque
wrench.
5. Refit the plastic caps on the wheel bolts.
6. Check the tyre pressure and calibrate the
tyre pressure monitoring system*.

WARNING
The wheel bolts may need to be re-tightened
several days after the change. Temperature
differences and vibration may mean that they
are not attached equally as tightly.
NOTE
After a tyre has been inflated, always refit
the dust cap in order to avoid damage to
the valve from gravel, dirt, etc.
Only use plastic dust caps. Metal dust
caps can rust and become difficult to
unscrew.

Spare wheel*
The spare wheel, the Temporary Spare type, can
be used to temporarily replace a punctured nor-
mal wheel.
The spare tyre is only designed for temporary
use. Replace it with a normal wheel as soon as
possible.
The car's driving characteristics can be changed
when the spare wheel is used and the ground
clearance is reduced. Do not wash the car in an
automatic car wash if the Temporary Spare is
being used.
Recommended tyre pressure must be maintained
regardless of the position of the temporary spare
wheel on the car.
If the spare tyre is damaged then a new one can
be purchased from a Volvo dealer.
WARNING
Never drive faster than 80 km/h
(50 mph) with a spare wheel fitted on the
car.
The car must never be driven fitted with
more than one "Temporary Spare" wheel.
The car may have different driving charac-
teristics while driving with the spare
wheel. The spare wheel must be replaced
with a normal wheel as soon as possible.
The spare wheel is smaller than the nor-
mal wheel, which affects the car's ground
clearance. Look out for high kerbs and do
not machine-wash the car.
Follow the manufacturer's recommended
tyre pressure for the spare wheel.
On all-wheel drive cars, the drive on the
rear axle can be disengaged.
If the spare wheel is fitted to the front
axle then it is not possible to use snow
chains at the same time.
The spare wheel must not be repaired.

523
IMPORTANT
The car must not be driven with tyres of dif-
ferent sizes or with a spare tyre other than
the one supplied with the car. Using different-
sized wheels can cause serious damage to
the car's transmission.

Handling the spare wheel
Follow these instructions for handling the spare
wheel.
The spare wheel is located in the spare wheel
well with the outside down. The foam block con-
tains all the tools for changing a wheel.
1. Fold up the cargo area floor, from the rear
and forwards.
2. Lift out the foam block with its tools.
3. Undo the retaining screw.
4. Lift out the spare wheel.
Storing the punctured tyre
1. Place the punctured tyre back in the space
for the spare wheel.
2. Screw back the mounting screw that held the
tyre in place.
NOTE
If the lower attachment of the mounting
screw loosens from the body underneath the
spare wheel, refit it in the hole and turn clock-
wise to reattach it.
3. Put the tools back in their right place in the
foam block and lift it back into the car.
4. Then fold down the cargo area floor and
place the punctured tyre in the cargo area.

Winter tyres
Winter tyres are adapted for winter road condi-
tions.
Volvo recommends winter tyres with particular
dimensions. Tyre dimensions are dependent on
engine variant. When driving on winter tyres, the
correct type of tyres must be fitted to all four
wheels.
NOTE
Contact a Volvo dealer for advice about which
wheel rim and type of tyre are most suitable.
Tips for changing to winter tyres
When summer and winter wheels are changed,
mark which side of the car they were mounted
on, for example L for left and R for right.
Studded tyres
Studded winter tyres should be run in gently for
500-1000 km (300-600 miles), so the studs
settle properly into the tyres. This gives the tyre,
and especially the studs, a longer service life.
NOTE
The legal provisions for the use of studded
tyres vary from country to country.
Tread depth
Road conditions with ice, slush and low tempera-
tures place considerably higher demands on tyres
than summer conditions. Volvo therefore recom-
mends not to drive on winter tyres that have a
tread depth of less than 4 mm (0.15 inches).
Related information

Tread wear indicators on the tyres (p. 509)
Snow chains
Use of snow chains and/or winter tyres can help
to improve the traction in winter conditions.
Volvo recommends that snow chains are not
used on wheel dimensions greater than
18 inches
WARNING
Use Volvo genuine snow chains or equivalent
chains designed for the car model, and tyre
and rim dimensions. Only single-sided snow
chains are permitted.
In the event of uncertainty about the show
chain, Volvo recommends that an authorised
Volvo workshop should be contacted. The
wrong snow chains may cause serious dam-
age to the car and lead to an accident.
WHEELS AND TYRES

525
IMPORTANT
Snow chains can be used on the car with the
following restrictions:
Always follow the mounting instructions
from the manufacturer carefully. Fit the
chains as tensioned as possible and ten-
sion them at regular intervals.
Snow chains must only be used on the
front wheels (also applies to all-wheel
drive cars).
In some cases, snow chains must NOT
be used, such as if accessory, aftermar-
ket or "special" tyres and wheels are fit-
ted that have a different size to the origi-
nal tyres and wheels. Sufficient distance
must be maintained between the chains
and brakes, suspension and body compo-
nents.
Check local regulations with regard to
using snow chains before fitting them.
Never exceed the chain manufacturer's
specified maximum speed. You must
never exceed 50 km/h (30 mph) under
any circumstances.
Avoid bumps, holes or sharp turns when
driving with snow chains.
Avoid driving on bare ground as this
wears out both the snow chains and
tyres.
Driving with snow chains may have a
negative effect on the car's driving cha-
racteristics. Avoid fast or sharp turns, as
well as braking with locked wheels.
Some types of chain that are firmly ten-
sioned affect brake components and
must therefore NOT be used.
You can obtain more information on snow chains
from a Volvo dealer.

Emergency puncture repair kit
The emergency puncture repair kit
7
, is used to
seal a puncture as well as to check and adjust
the air pressure in the tyre.
Cars equipped with spare tyre* do not have the
puncture repair kit.
The puncture repair kit consists of a compressor
and a bottle with sealing fluid. The sealing works
as a temporary repair.
NOTE
The sealing fluid is effective at sealing tyres
with tread punctures but has limited ability to
seal tyres with sidewall punctures. Do not use
the emergency puncture repair kit on tyres
displaying larger slits, cracks or similar dam-
age.
NOTE
The compressor is intended for temporary
emergency puncture repair and is approved
by Volvo.
Location
The puncture repair kit is located in the foam
block under the floor in the cargo area.

WARNING
Please keep the following points in mind
when using the tyre sealing system:
The sealing fluid bottle contains 1) rubber
latex, natural and 2) ethanediol. These
substances are harmful if swallowed.
The contents of this bottle may cause
allergic skin reactions or otherwise be
potentially harmful to the respiratory tract,
the skin, the central nervous system, and
the eyes.
Precautions:
Store out of the reach of children.
Harmful if ingested.
Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with
the skin. If sealing fluid has come into
contact with your clothes, remove them.
Wash thoroughly after handling.
First aid:
Skin: Wash affected areas of skin with
soap and water. Get medical attention if
symptoms occur.
Eyes: Flush with plenty of water for least
15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper
and lower eyelids. Get medical attention if
symptoms occur.
Inhalation: Move the exposed person to
fresh air. If irritation persists, get medical
attention.
Ingestion: Do NOT induce vomiting
unless directed to do so by medical per-
sonnel. Get medical attention.
Disposal: Dispose of this material and its
container at a hazardous or special waste
collection point.
WARNING
Do not remove the bottle when the punc-
ture repair kit is being used.
Do not remove the air hose when the
puncture repair kit is being used.
1. Set up the warning triangle and activate the
hazard warning lights if a tyre is being sealed
in a trafficked location.
If the puncture was caused by a nail or simi-
lar, allow this to remain in the tyre. It helps to
seal the hole.
2. Detach the decal for maximum permitted
speed that is affixed on one side of the com-
pressor. Affix it visibly on the windscreen as a
reminder to observe the speed limit. You
should not drive faster than 80 km/h
(50 mph) after the emergency tyre repair kit
has been used.
In addition, remove the warning decal and
attach it firmly to the side of the wheel so
that it doesn't fall off.
3.
Check that the switch is in position 0 (Off),
and locate the electrical cable and the air
hose.
4. Fit the sealing fluid bottle in the compressor
so that the red arrows on the compressor
and bottle meet, and then turn clockwise
until it clicks.
The bottle is equipped with a non-return
valve which means that the fluid does not
come out unless it is fitted in the compres-
sor.
5. Attach the air hose to the bottle's opening
and turn clockwise until it clicks.
6. Unscrew the tyre's dust cap and screw in the
air hose's valve connection to the bottom of
the thread on the tyre's air valve.

7. Connect the electrical cable to the closest
12 V socket and start the car.
NOTE
Make sure that none of the other 12 V sock-
ets is in use when the compressor is operat-
ing.
WARNING
Do not leave children in the car without
supervision when the engine is running.
WARNING
Inhaling car exhaust fumes could result in
danger to life. Never leave the engine running
in sealed areas or areas that lack sufficient
ventilation.
8. Start the compressor by flicking the switch to
position I (On).
WARNING
Never stand next to the tyre when the com-
pressor is running. If cracks or unevenness
arise then the compressor must be switched
off immediately. The journey should not be
continued. Call roadside assistance for recov-
ery to a tyre centre. Volvo recommends an
authorised tyre centre.
NOTE
When the compressor starts, the pressure
can increase up to 6 bar (88 psi) but the
pressure drops after approximately
30 seconds.
9. Inflate the tyre for 7 minutes.
IMPORTANT
The compressor must not be operated for
longer than 10 minutes - risk of overheating.
10. Switch off the compressor to check the pres-
sure on the pressure gauge. Minimum pres-
sure is 1.8 bar (22 psi) and maximum is
2.5 bar (36 psi). Release air using the pres-
sure reducing valve if the tyre pressure is too
high.
To access the pressure reducing valve, the
sealing fluid bottle must first be removed.
Remove the bottle in the following order:
1. Remove the air hose from the tyre valve.
2. Remove the air hose from the bottle.
3. Remove the bottle from the compressor.
4. Refit the air hose directly in the compres-
sor.
5. Refit the air hose to the tyre valve.
6. Release air using the pressure reducing
valve.
WARNING
If the pressure is below 1.8 bar (22 psi) then
the hole in the tyre is too big. The journey
should not be continued. Call roadside assis-
tance for recovery to a tyre centre. Volvo rec-
ommends an authorised tyre centre.
11. Switch off the compressor and detach the
electrical cable.
WHEELS AND TYRES
529
12. Unscrew the air hose from the tyre valve and
refit the dust cap on the tyre.
NOTE
After a tyre has been inflated, always refit
the dust cap in order to avoid damage to
the valve from gravel, dirt, etc.
Only use plastic dust caps. Metal dust
caps can rust and become difficult to
unscrew.
13. Clean the air hose before putting it away and
be careful that there is no leakage of sealing
fluid.
14. As soon as possible, drive at least 3 km
(2 miles) at a maximum speed of 80 km/h
(50 mph) so that the sealing fluid can seal
the tyre, and then perform a follow-up check.
WARNING
Sealant will spurt out of the puncture during
the first few rotations of the tyre. Make sure
that nobody is standing near the car and gets
the sealing fluid splashed onto them when
the car is driven away. The distance should be
at least 2 metres (7 feet).
15.
Follow-up inspection
Connect the air hose on the tyre valve and
screw in the valve connection to the bottom
of the tyre valve's thread. The compressor
must be switched off.
16. Read the tyre pressure on the pressure
gauge.
If it is below 1.3 bar (19 psi) then the tyre
is insufficiently sealed. The journey should
not be continued. Call roadside assistance
for recovery.
If the tyre pressure is higher than 1.3 bar
(19 psi), the tyre must be inflated to the
pressure specified in accordance with the
tyre pressure label on the driver's side
door pillar (1 bar = 100 kPa = 14.5 psi).
Release air using the pressure reducing
valve if the tyre pressure is too high.
WARNING
Check the tyre pressure regularly.
Volvo recommends that the car is driven to the
nearest authorised Volvo workshop for the
replacement/repair of the damaged tyre. Advise
the workshop that the tyre contains sealing fluid.
The sealing fluid bottle and hose must be
replaced after use. Volvo recommends that these
replacements be performed by an authorised
Volvo workshop.
WARNING
Maximum mileage with tyres containing seal-
ing fluid is 200 km (120 miles).
NOTE
The compressor is an electrical device. Follow
local regulations related to waste manage-
ment.

Recommendations for loading
There are a number of things that are important
to bear in mind when loading the car.
Payload depends on the car's kerb weight. The
total of the weight of the passengers and all
accessories reduces the car's payload by a cor-
responding weight.
WARNING
The car’s driving properties change depend-
ing on the weight and positioning of the load.
Loading in the cargo area
Good things to remember when loading:
Position the load firmly against the rear
seat's backrest.
Heavy objects should be placed as low as
possible. Avoid placing heavy loads on low-
ered backrests.
Cover sharp edges with something soft to
avoid damaging the upholstery.
Secure all loads to the load retaining eyelets

WARNING
Leave 10 cm (4 inches) space between the
load and the side windows if the car is loaded
to above the top edge of the door windows.
Otherwise, the intended protection of the
inflatable curtain, which is concealed in the
headlining, may be compromised.
WARNING
Always secure the load. During heavy braking
the load may otherwise shift, causing injury to
the car's occupants.
Cover sharp edges and sharp corners with
something soft.
Switch off the engine and apply the parking
brake when loading/unloading long items.
Otherwise you may accidentally knock the
gear lever or gear selector with the load into a
drive position - and the car could then move
off.
Increasing the space in the cargo area
To expand the cargo area and simplify loading,
the rear seat's backrest can be lowered. Note
that objects must not prevent the function of the
WHIPS system for the front seats if any of the
rear seat's backrests is folded down.
A through-load hatch* in the rear seat can be
folded down for carrying long and narrow loads.

Roof load and loading on load
carriers
For loading on the car's roof, the load carriers
that Volvo have developed are recommended.
This is in order to avoid damage to the car and in
order to achieve the maximum possible safety
during a journey. Volvo's load carriers are availa-
ble for purchase at authorised Volvo retailers.
Carefully follow the installation instructions sup-
plied with the carriers.
Distribute the load evenly over the load carri-
ers. Put the heaviest objects at the bottom.
Check periodically that the load carriers and
load are properly secured. Lash the load
securely with retaining straps.
If the load is longer than the car at the front,
e.g. a canoe or kayak, fit the towing eye to its
front socket and attach the bungee to this.
The size of the area exposed to the wind, and
therefore fuel consumption, increase with the
size of the load.
Drive gently. Avoid quick acceleration, heavy
braking and hard cornering.
WARNING
The car's centre of gravity and driving charac-
teristics are altered by roof loads.
Follow the car's specifications with regard to
weights and maximum permitted load.

Data transfer between car and
workshop via Wi-Fi
Volvo's workshops have a specific Wi-Fi network
for secure data transfer between your car and
the workshop. Your workshop visit will be sim-
pler and more efficient when the transfer of diag-
nostic information and software can take place
via the workshop's network.
During a workshop visit, your service technician
may want to connect your car to the workshop's
network via Wi-Fi to perform fault-tracing and
software download. For this type of communica-
tion, the car only connects to a workshop's net-
work. It is not possible to connect the car to
another Wi-Fi network, such as at home, in the
same way as to a workshop's network.
Connection with the remote control key
Connection is normally handled by the service
technician who then uses the remote control key
buttons. That's why it's important to take a key
with buttons with you for the workshop visit.
Press three times on the lock button on the
remote control key to connect the car to the
workshop's network via Wi-Fi.
When the car is connected to a Wi-Fi network,
the
symbol appears in the centre display.
WARNING
The car must not be driven when connected
to the workshop's networks and systems.

Raise the car
When raising the car, it is important that the jack
is fitted in the intended points on the car's
underbody.
WARNING
If the car is raised using a workshop jack, this
must be placed beneath one of the four jack-
ing points. Take care to position the workshop
jack so that the car cannot slip off. Make sure
that the jack plate is fitted with a rubber guard
so that the car remains stable and is not dam-
aged. Always use axle stands or similar.
NOTE
Volvo recommends only using the jack that
belongs to the car model in question. If a jack
is selected other than the one recommended
by Volvo, follow the instructions supplied with
the equipment.
The normal car jack is only designed for occa-
sional, short-term use, such as when chang-
ing a wheel after a puncture. If the car is to be
jacked up more often, or for a longer time
than is required just to change a wheel, use
of a garage jack is recommended. In this
instance, follow the instructions for use that
come with the equipment.

If the engine oil cannot be checked on a regular
basis and the level falls too low, there is a risk
that this will cause serious damage to the engine.
IMPORTANT
In order to fulfil the requirements for the
engine's service intervals all engines are filled
with a specially adapted synthetic engine oil
at the factory. The choice of oil has been
made very carefully with regard to service life,
starting characteristics, fuel consumption and
environmental impact.
An approved engine oil must be used in order
that the recommended service intervals can
be applied. Only use a prescribed grade of oil
for both filling and oil change, otherwise there
is a risk of the service life, starting characte-
ristics, fuel consumption and environmental
impact of the car being affected.
If engine oil of the prescribed grade and vis-
cosity is not used, engine related components
may become damaged. Volvo Car Corporation
disclaims any liability for any such damage.
Volvo recommends that oil changes are car-
ried out at an authorised Volvo workshop.
Volvo uses different systems to warn about the
oil level if it is too low/high, or in the event of low
oil pressure. Certain engine variants have an oil
pressure sensor, and then the driver display's
warning symbol for low oil pressure
is
used. Other variants have an oil level sensor,
when the driver is informed via the driver display's
warning symbol
and display texts. Certain
variants have both systems. Contact a Volvo
dealer for more information.
Change the engine oil and oil filter in accordance
with the intervals specified in the Service and
Warranty Booklet. Using oil of a higher than

Topping up coolant
The coolant cools the internal combustion
engine to the correct operating temperature. The
heat that is transferred from the engine to the
coolant can be used to heat the passenger com-
partment.
When topping up the coolant, follow the instruc-
tions on the packaging. Never top up with water
only. The risk of freezing increases with both too
little and too much coolant concentrate.
If there is coolant under the car, if there is cool-
ant smoke, or if more than 2 litres (approx.
2 quarts) have been filled, always call for recovery
to avoid the risk of engine damage due to a
defective cooling system when attempting to
start the car.
WARNING
The coolant may be very hot. Never open the
cap when the coolant is hot. If a top-up is
required, unscrew the expansion tank cap
slowly to allow any overpressure to disappear.
Coolant expansion tank.
Screw off the cap and top up with coolant if
necessary. The coolant level must not exceed
the MAX mark inside the expansion tank.
MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
563
IMPORTANT
Harmful if ingested. May cause organ
(kidney) damage.
Use ready-mixed coolant as recom-
mended by Volvo. If concentrated liquid is
used, make sure that the ratio is 50 %
coolant to 50 % water of an approved
quality.
Do not mix different coolants.
Only new coolant should be used when
replacing major cooling system compo-
nents to ensure the system has sufficient
corrosion protection.
The engine must only be run with a well-
filled cooling system. Otherwise, tempera-
tures that are too high may occur result-
ing in the risk of damage (cracks) in the
cylinder head.
A high content of chlorine, chlorides and
other salts may cause corrosion in the
cooling system.

Starter battery
The electrical system is single-pole and uses the
chassis and engine casing as a conductor.
The starter battery is used to start up the electri-
cal system and drive the starter motor as well as
other electrical equipment in the car.
The starter battery should be replaced by a
workshop
20
.
The car has a voltage-regulated AC alternator.
The starter battery is a 12 V battery, designed for
the carbon dioxide reducing functions Start/stop
and regenerative charging, and to support the
functionality of the car's different systems.
The service life and function of the starter battery
is influenced by factors such as the number of
starts, discharging, driving style, driving condi-
tions, climatic conditions etc.
Never disconnect the starter battery when
the engine is running.
Check that the cables to the starter battery
are correctly connected and properly tight-
ened.
WARNING
The battery can generate oxyhydrogen
gas, which is highly explosive. A spark can
be formed if a jump lead is connected
incorrectly, and this can be enough for
the battery to explode.
Do not connect the jump leads to any
fuel system component or any moving
part. Be careful of hot engine parts.
The battery contains sulphuric acid, which
can cause serious burns.
If sulphuric acid comes into contact with
eyes, skin or clothing, flush with large
quantities of water. If acid splashes into
the eyes - seek medical attention imme-
diately.
Never smoke near the battery.
Charging points
When connecting an external starter battery or
battery charger, use the car's charging points in
the engine compartment.
Negative charging point
Positive charging point
IMPORTANT
When charging the starter battery and the
support battery, only use a modern battery
charger with controlled charging voltage. Fast
charging function must not be used since it
may damage the battery.

IMPORTANT
If the following instruction is not observed
then the energy saving function for infotain-
ment may be temporarily disengaged, and/or
the message in the driver display about the
starter battery's state of charge may be tem-
porarily inapplicable, following the connection
of an external starter battery or battery
charger:
The negative battery terminal on the car's
starter battery must never be used for
connecting an external starter battery or
battery charger - only the car's negative
charging point may be used as the
grounding point.
NOTE
The life of the battery is shortened if it
becomes discharged repeatedly.
The life of the battery is affected by several
factors, including driving conditions and cli-
mate. Battery starting capacity decreases
gradually with time and therefore needs to be
recharged if the car is not used for a longer
time or when it is only driven short distances.
Extreme cold further limits starting capacity.
To maintain the battery in good condition, at
least 15 minutes of driving/week is recom-
mended or that the battery is connected to a
battery charger with automatic trickle charg-
ing.
A battery that is kept fully charged has a
maximum service life.
Location
The starter battery is located in the engine compartment.
WARNING
If the starter battery is disconnected, the
automatic opening and closing function must
be reset to work properly. A reset must take
place for pinch protection to work.
IMPORTANT
On certain models, the battery is attached
with a retaining strap. Make sure the retaining
strap is properly tightened.

Support battery
Cars with the Start/stop function are equipped
with two 12 V batteries - one extra powerful
starter battery for starting and one support bat-
tery that helps during the function's starting
sequence.
The support battery is located down in the engine com-
partment. The starter battery is also shown here (top).
NOTE
The higher the current take-off in the car,
the more the alternator must be working
and the batteries charging = Increased
fuel consumption.
When the capacity of the battery has
fallen below the lowest permissible level
then the Start/stop function is disen-
gaged.
Temporarily reduced Start/stop function due to
high current take-off means:
The engine auto-starts without the driver lift-
ing his/her foot from the foot brake pedal.
The support battery normally requires no more
service than the normal starter battery. A work-
shop should be contacted in the event of ques-
tions or problems - an authorised Volvo workshop
is recommended.
IMPORTANT
If the following instruction is not observed
then the Start/stop function may temporarily
cease to work after the connection of an
external battery or battery charger:
The negative battery terminal on the car's
starter battery must never be used for
connecting an external starter battery or
battery charger – only the car's negative
charging point may be used as the
grounding point.
NOTE
If the starter battery has been discharged so
much that the car has no normal electrical
functions and the engine is then jump-started
with an external battery or a battery charger,
the Start/stop function may continue to be
activated. If the Start/stop function then auto-
stops the engine shortly afterwards, there is a
great risk that engine auto-start will fail due
to insufficient battery capacity, because the
battery has not had the time to recharge.
If the car has been jump-started, or if there is
insufficient time to charge the battery with a
battery charger, the Start/stop function is
temporarily deactivated until the battery has
been recharged by the car. In an outside tem-
perature of approx. +15 °C (approx. 60 °F),
the battery needs to be charged for at least
1 hour by the car. In a lower outside tempera-
ture, the charging time may increase to
3–4 hours. The recommendation is to charge
the battery using an external battery charger.

Cleaning the interior
Only use cleaning agents and car care products
recommended by Volvo. Clean regularly and
treat stains at once for best results. Vacuuming
is important prior to using cleaning agents.
IMPORTANT
Certain items of coloured clothing (e.g.
dark jeans and suede garments) may
stain the upholstery. If this occurs, it is
important to clean and treat these parts
of the upholstery as soon as possible.
Never use strong solvents such as
washer fluid, pure petrol or white spirit or
concentrated alcohol to clean the interior,
since this may damage the upholstery as
well as other interior materials.
Never spray the cleaning agent directly
onto components that have electrical but-
tons and controls. Wipe them instead
using a moistened cloth containing the
cleaning agent.
Sharp objects and Velcro may damage
the fabric upholstery.
Only use cleaning agents on the type of
material for which they were intended.

Leather upholstery*
Volvo's leather upholstery is treated to preserve
its original appearance.
Leather upholstery is a natural product that
changes and acquires a beautiful patina over
time. Regular cleaning and treatment are
required in order that the properties and colours
of the leather shall be preserved. Volvo offers a
comprehensive product, Volvo Leather Care
KitWipes, for cleaning and treatment of leather
upholstery. The protective outer layer of the
leather is preserved when this is used according
to the instructions.
To achieve results that are as good as possible,
Volvo recommends cleaning and application of
the protective cream one to four times per year
(or more frequently if required). Volvo Leather
Care Kit/Wipes is available from Volvo dealers.
Cleaning the leather upholstery
1. Apply the leather cleaner to a damp sponge
and squeeze until a foam is created.
2. Use the sponge on the stain in a circular
motion.
3. Thoroughly dampen the stain using the
sponge, allow the sponge to absorb the stain
without scrubbing.
4. Wipe the stain with a soft cloth and allow the
leather to dry thoroughly.
Protecting the leather upholstery
1. Apply a small amount of leather protective
agent to a cloth and then apply it to the
leather in light circular motions.
2. Allow to dry for about 20 minutes.
Protecting the leather upholstery makes it more
resistant to the stresses from the sun's UV radia-
tion.

Polishing and waxing
Polish and wax the car if the paintwork is dull or
to give the paintwork extra protection. The car
does not need to be polished until it is at least
one year old. However, the car can be waxed
during this time. Do not polish or wax the car in
direct sunlight, the surface being polished
should be a maximum of 45 °C (113 °F).
Wash and dry the car thoroughly before you
begin polishing or waxing. Clean off asphalt
and tar stains using tar remover or white spi-
rit. More stubborn stains can be removed
using fine rubbing paste designed for car
paintwork.
Polish first with a polish and then wax with
liquid or solid wax. Follow the instructions on
the packaging carefully. Many preparations
contain both polish and wax.
IMPORTANT
Avoid waxing and polishing on plastic and
rubber.
When using degreasant on plastic and rubber,
only rub with light pressure if it is necessary.
Use a soft washing sponge.
Polishing glossy trim mouldings could wear
away or damage the glossy surface layer.
Polishing agent that contains abrasive must
not be used.
IMPORTANT
Only paint treatment recommended by Volvo
should be used. Other treatment such as pre-
serving, sealing, protection, lustre sealing or
similar could damage the paintwork. Paint-
work damage caused by such treatments is
not covered by Volvo warranty.

Handwashing
The car should be washed as soon as it
becomes dirty. This means that the car is easier
to clean since the dirt does not attach as firmly.
It also reduces the risk of scratches and keeps
the car fresh. Carry out cleaning in a cleaning
area with an oil separator, and use car shampoo.
Handwashing
The following steps are good to remember when
washing the car:
Avoid washing the car in direct sunlight. This
can cause the detergent or wax to dry and
have an abrasive effect.
Remove bird droppings from the paintwork
as soon as possible. They contain sub-
stances that damage and discolour paint-
work very quickly. For example, use soft
paper or sponge soaked in plenty of water.
An authorised Volvo workshop is recom-
mended for the removal of any discoloura-
tion.
Wash the underbody, including wheel hous-
ings and bumpers.
Rinse the entire car until the dissolved dirt
has been removed so as to reduce the risk of
scratches from washing. Do not spray directly
onto the locks.
If necessary, use cold degreasing agent on
very dirty surfaces. Note that in this case, the
surfaces must not be hot from the sun.
MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
* Option/accessory.
587
Wash using a sponge, car shampoo and
plenty of lukewarm water.
Clean the wiper blades with a lukewarm soap
solution or car shampoo.
Dry the car using a clean, soft chamois or a
water scraper. If you avoid allowing drops of
water to dry in strong sunlight, you reduce
the risk of water drying stains which may
need to be polished out.
After the car has been washed, tar from
asphalt may remain. Use tar remover to get
rid of the last spots after the car has been
washed.
WARNING
Always have the engine cleaned by a work-
shop. There is a risk of fire if the engine is hot.
IMPORTANT
Dirty headlamps have impaired functionality.
Clean them regularly, e.g. when refuelling.
Do not use any corrosive cleaning agents but
use water and a non-scratching sponge
instead.
NOTE
Outside lighting such as headlamps and rear
lamps may temporarily have condensation on
the inside of the lens. This is normal, all exte-
rior lighting is designed to withstand this.
Condensation is normally vented out of the
lamp housing when the lamp has been
switched on for a time.
IMPORTANT
Make sure that the panoramic roof* and
sun visor are closed before washing the
car.
Never use polishing agent with abrasive
properties on the panoramic roof.
Never use wax on the rubber mouldings
around the panoramic roof.
IMPORTANT
Remember to remove dirt from the drain
holes in the doors and in the sills after wash-
ing the car.

Automatic car wash
The car should be washed as soon as it
becomes dirty. This means that the car is easier
to clean since the dirt does not attach as firmly.
It also reduces the risk of scratches and keeps
the car fresh.
An automatic car wash is a simple and quick way
of washing the car, but it cannot reach every-
where. Washing the car by hand is recommended
to achieve a good result, or to supplement auto-
matic car washes with washing by hand.
NOTE
Volvo recommends that the car is not washed
in an automatic car wash during the first few
months (this is because the paintwork has
not fully hardened).
IMPORTANT
Before driving the car into an automatic car
wash, deactivate the functions for automatic
braking when stationary and automatic park-
ing brake application. If these functions are
not deactivated, the brake system will jam
when the car is stationary and the car will not
be able to move.
IMPORTANT
For car washes where the car is pulled for-
ward with rolling wheels, the following applies:
1. Before washing the car, make sure that
the automatic rain sensor is deactivated,
otherwise there is the risk of it starting
and damaging the wiper arms.
2. Make sure that the door mirrors are
retracted, any auxiliary lamps secured,
antennas retracted or removed, otherwise
they risk being damaged by the auto-
matic car wash.
3. Drive into the car wash.
4. Switch off the "Automatic braking at
standstill" function using the button
on the tunnel console.
5. Switch off the "Automatic parking brake
application" function via the top view of
the centre display.
6. Switch off the engine by pressing the
start button next to the steering wheel.
Hold the button depressed for at least
2 seconds.
The car is ready for the car wash.

Exterior plastic, rubber and trim
components
A special cleaning agent available from Volvo
dealers is recommended for the cleaning and
care of coloured plastic parts, rubber and trim
components, e.g. glossy trim mouldings. When
using such a cleaning agent the instructions
must be followed carefully.
Avoid washing the car with detergent with a pH
value below 3.5 or above 11.5. This can cause
discolouration of anodised aluminium compo-
nents*, as illustrated. We advise against use of
abrasive polishing agents, as illustrated.
Parts that should be washed using a cleaning agent with
a pH value between 3.5 and 11.5.
IMPORTANT
Avoid waxing and polishing on plastic and
rubber.
When using degreasant on plastic and rubber,
only rub with light pressure if it is necessary.
Use a soft washing sponge.
Polishing glossy trim mouldings could wear
away or damage the glossy surface layer.
Polishing agent that contains abrasive must
not be used.
IMPORTANT
Avoid washing the car with cleaning agent
with a pH value lower than 3.5 or higher than
11.5. This may result in discolouration of ano-
dised aluminium parts such as roof rack and
around the side windows.
Never use metal polishing agent on anodised
aluminium parts, this can result in discoloura-
tion and destroy the surface treatment.

Rustproofing
The car has effective protection against corro-
sion.
Anti-corrosion protection for the body consists of
metallic protective coatings on the sheet metal, a
high-quality painting process, corrosion-protected
and minimised metal overlap, and shielding plas-
tic components, abrasion protection and supple-
mental rust inhibitor on exposed areas. In the
chassis, exposed components of the wheel sus-
pension are made of corrosion-resistant cast alu-
minium.
Inspection and maintenance
The car's anti-corrosion protection normally
requires no maintenance but a good way to fur-
ther reduce the risk of corrosion is to keep the
car clean. Strong alkaline or acidic cleaning solu-
tions must always be avoided on glossy trim com-
ponents. Any stone chips should be rectified as
soon as they are discovered.

Car paintwork
The paintwork consists of several layers and is
an important part of the car's rustproofing, and
should therefore be checked regularly.
The most common types of paintwork damage
are stone chips, scratches, and marks on the
edges of wings, doors and bumpers. To avoid the
onset of rust, damaged paintwork should be rec-
tified immediately.

The most common types of paintwork damage
are stone chips, scratches, and marks on e.g.
the edges of wings, doors and bumpers.
Repair paint damage
To avoid the onset of rust, damaged paintwork
should be rectified immediately.
NOTE
When paint is repaired the surface must be
clean and dry. The temperature of the surface
should be at least 15 °C (59 °F).
Materials that may be needed
Primer

bumpers.
Basecoat and clearcoat - available in spray
cans or as touch-up pens/sticks
24
.
Masking tape.
Fine sand paper
23
.
If the damage has not reached down to the
metal, the touch-up paint can be applied directly
after the surface has been cleaned.
1. Apply a piece of masking tape over the dam-
aged surface. Then remove the tape to
remove any loose paint.
If the damage is down to the metal, use of a
primer is appropriate. In the event of damage
to a plastic surface, an adhesive primer
should be used to give better results - spray
into the lid of the spray can and brush on
thinly.
2. Before painting, gentle polishing using a very
fine polishing agent may be carried out
locally if required (e.g. if there are any uneven
edges). The surface is cleaned thoroughly
and left to dry.
23
If required.
24
Follow the instructions that are included with the package for the touch-up pen/stick.

3. Stir the primer well and apply using a fine
brush, a matchstick or similar. Finish off with
a basecoat and clearcoat once the primer
has dried.
For scratches, implement the same procedure
but mask around the damaged area to protect
the undamaged paintwork.
Touch-up pens and spray paints for touching up

Kerb weight includes the driver, the fuel tank
90% full, plus and all oils and fluids.
The weight of passengers and accessories, and
towball load (when a trailer is hitched) influence
the load capacity and are not included in the kerb
weight.
Permitted max. load = Gross vehicle weight -
Kerb weight.
NOTE
The documented kerb weight applies to cars
in the standard version - i.e. a car without
extra equipment or accessories. This means
that for every accessory added the loading
capacity of the car is reduced correspondingly
by the weight of the accessory.
Examples of accessories that reduce load
capacity are the different equipment levels
(e.g. Kinetic, Momentum, Summum), as well
as other accessories such as towbar, load
carrier, space box, audio system, auxiliary
lamps, GPS, fuel-driven heater, safety grille,
carpets, cargo cover, power seats, etc.
Weighing the car is a certain way of ascer-
taining the kerb weight of your own particular
car.
WARNING
The car's driving characteristics change
depending on how heavily it is loaded and
how the load is distributed.

Adverse driving conditions for
engine oil
Adverse driving conditions can lead to abnor-
mally high oil temperature or oil consumption.
Below are some examples of adverse driving
conditions.
Check the oil level more frequently for long jour-
neys:
towing a caravan or trailer
in mountainous regions
at high speeds
in temperatures colder than -30 °C (-22 °F)
or hotter than +40 °C (+104 °F).
The above also apply to shorter driving distances
at low temperatures.
Choose a fully synthetic engine oil for adverse
driving conditions. It provides extra protection for
the engine.
Volvo recommends:
IMPORTANT
In order to fulfil the requirements for the
engine's service intervals all engines are filled
with a specially adapted synthetic engine oil
at the factory. The choice of oil has been
made very carefully with regard to service life,
starting characteristics, fuel consumption and
environmental impact.
An approved engine oil must be used in order
that the recommended service intervals can
be applied. Only use a prescribed grade of oil
for both filling and oil change, otherwise there
is a risk of the service life, starting characte-
ristics, fuel consumption and environmental
impact of the car being affected.
If engine oil of the prescribed grade and vis-
cosity is not used, engine related components
may become damaged. Volvo Car Corporation
disclaims any liability for any such damage.
Volvo recommends that oil changes are car-
ried out at an authorised Volvo workshop.

The fuel consumption and emission values in the
above table are based on special EU driving
cycles (see below), which apply for cars with kerb
weight in basic version and without extra equip-
ment. The car's weight may increase depending
on its equipment level. This, along with how heav-
ily the car is loaded, affects fuel consumption and
CO2 emissions.
There are several reasons for fuel consumption
that is higher than the values in the table. Exam-
ples of these include:
If the car is equipped with extra equipment
that affects its weight.
Driving style.
If the customer chooses wheels other than
those mounted as standard on the basic ver-
sion of the model, this could increase rolling
resistance.
High speed causes increased air resistance.
Fuel quality, road and traffic conditions,
weather and the condition of the car.
A combination of the examples above could
increase consumption considerably.
There may be huge deviations in fuel consump-
tion if comparing to the EU driving cycles (see
below), which are used in the certification of the
car and on which consumption figures in the
table are based. For further information, please
refer to the referenced regulations.
NOTE
Extreme weather conditions, driving with a
trailer or driving at high altitudes, in combina-
tion with poorer fuel quality than recom-
mended, are factors that considerably
increase the car's fuel consumption.
||
SPECIFICATIONS
618
EU driving cycles
The official fuel consumption figures are based
on two standardised driving cycles in a laboratory
environment ("EU driving cycles"), all in accord-
ance with EU Regulation no 692/2008 and
715/2007 (Euro 5 / Euro 6), 2017/1151 and
2017/1153. Since the driving cycles are also
used for quality control, there are stringent
requirements for test repeatability. Testing is
therefore conducted in a controlled manner and
only with the car's basic functions (e.g. air condi-
tioning, radio, etc. switched off). The results of the
official figures are therefore not naturally repre-
sentative of what the customer sees in actual
use.
The regulations cover the driving cycles "Urban
driving" and "Motorway driving":
Urban driving – the measurement starts
with a cold start of the engine. The driving is
simulated.
Motorway driving – the car is accelerated
and braked at speed of 0-120 km/h
(0-75 mph). The driving is simulated.
The official value for mixed driving, which is
shown in the table, is a combination of the results
from the "Urban driving" and "Motorway driving"
driving cycles in accordance with legal require-
ments.
To determine the carbon dioxide emissions (CO
2
emissions) during the two driving cycles, the
exhaust gases were collected. These were then
analysed to determine the value for CO
2
emis-
sions.
