Introduction General information WARNING If your vehicle is involved in an accident, unseen damage may affect its driveability and safety. WARNING CALIFORNIA proposition 65 Engine exhaust, some of its constituents, and certain vehicle components contain or emit chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer, and birth defects or other reproductive harm. In addition, certain fluids contained in vehicles and certain products of component wear contain or emit chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, and birth defects or other reproductive harm. 11 Introduction Volvo and the environment Volvo is committed to the well being of its customers. As a natural part of this commitment, we care about the environment in which we all live. Caring for the environment means an everyday involvement in reducing our environmental impact. Volvo's environmental activities are based on a holistic view, which means we consider the overall environmental impact of a product throughout its complete life cycle. In this context, design, production, product use, and recycling are all important considerations. In production, Volvo has partly or completely phased out several chemicals including CFCs, lead chromates, asbestos, and cadmium; and reduced the number of chemicals used in our plants 50% since 1991. Volvo was the first in the world to introduce into production a three-way catalytic converter with a Lambda sond, now called the heated oxygen sensor, in 1976. The current version of this highly efficient system reduces emissions of harmful substances (CO, HC, NOx) from the exhaust pipe by approximately 95 – 99% and the search to eliminate the remaining emissions continues. Volvo is the only automobile manufacturer to offer CFC-free retrofit kits for the air conditioning system of all models as far back as the 1975 model 240. Advanced electronic engine controls and cleaner fuels are bringing us closer to our goal. After Volvo vehicles and parts have fulfilled their use, recycling 12 is the next critical step in completing the life cycle. The metal content is about 75% of the total weight of a vehicle, which makes the vehicle among the most recycled industrial products. In order to have efficient and wellcontrolled recycling, dismantling information is available for all Volvo models. For Volvo, all homogeneous plastic parts weighing more than 3.4 oz. (100 grams) are marked with international symbols that indicate how the component is to be sorted for recycling. In addition to continuous environmental refinement of conventional gasoline-powered internal combustion engines, Volvo is actively looking at advanced technology alternative-fuel vehicles. When you drive a Volvo, you become our partner in the work to lessen the car's impact on the environment. To reduce your vehicle's environmental impact, you can: • Maintain proper air pressure in your tires. Tests have shown decreased fuel economy with improperly inflated tires. • Follow the recommended maintenance schedule in your Warranty and Service Records Information booklet. • Drive at a constant speed whenever possible. • See a trained and qualified Volvo service technician as soon as possible for inspection if the check engine (malfunction indicator) light illuminates, or stays on after the vehicle has started. • Properly dispose of any vehicle-related waste such as used motor oil, used batteries, brake pads, etc. • When cleaning your vehicle, please use genuine Volvo car care products. All Volvo car care products are formulated to be environmentally friendly. For additional information regarding the environmental activities in which Volvo Cars of North America, LLC and Volvo Car Corporation are involved, visit our Internet home page at: http://www.volvocars.us. WARNING Certain components of this vehicle such as air bag modules, seat belt pretensioners, adaptive steering columns, and button cell batteries may contain Perchlorate material. Special handling may apply for service or vehicle end of life disposal. See www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/ perchlorate. Introduction Important warnings Information booklet for more warranty information. Volvo assumes no responsibility for death, injury, or expenses that may result from the installation of nongenuine accessories. Accessory Installation • • • • • We strongly recommend that Volvo owners install only genuine, Volvo-approved accessories, and that accessory installations be performed only by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician. Genuine Volvo accessories are tested to ensure compatibility with the performance, safety, and emission systems in your vehicle. Additionally, a trained and qualified Volvo service technician knows where accessories may and may not be safely installed in your Volvo. In all cases, please consult a trained and qualified Volvo service technician before installing any accessory in or on your vehicle. Accessories that have not been approved by Volvo may or may not be specifically tested for compatibility with your vehicle. Additionally, an inexperienced installer may not be familiar with some of your vehicle's systems. Any of your vehicle's performance and safety systems could be adversely affected if you install accessories that Volvo has not tested, or if you allow accessories to be installed by someone unfamiliar with your vehicle. Damage caused by unapproved or improperly installed accessories may not be covered by your new vehicle warranty. See your Warranty and Service Records Driver distraction • Driver distraction results from driver activities that are not directly related to controlling the vehicle in the driving environment. Your new Volvo is, or can be, equipped with many feature-rich entertainment and communication systems. These include hands-free cellular telephones, navigation systems, and multipurpose audio systems. You may also own other portable electronic devices for your own convenience. When used properly and safely, they enrich the driving experience. Improperly used, any of these could cause a distraction. • For all of these systems, we want to provide the following warning that reflects the strong Volvo concern for your safety: • Never use these devices or any feature of your vehicle in a way that distracts you from the task of driving safely. Distraction can lead to a serious accident. In addition to this general warning, we offer the following guidance regarding specific newer features that may be found in your vehicle: • Never use a hand-held cellular telephone while driving. Some jurisdictions prohibit cellular telephone use by a driver while the vehicle is moving. • If your vehicle is equipped with a navigation system, set and make changes to your travel itinerary only with the vehicle parked. • Never program your audio system while the vehicle is moving. Program radio presets with the vehicle parked, and use your programmed presets to make radio use quicker and simpler. • Never use portable computers or personal digital assistants while the vehicle is moving. A driver has a responsibility to do everything possible to ensure his or her own safety and the safety of passengers in the vehicle and others sharing the roadway. Avoiding distractions is part of that responsibility. 13 14 16 18 21 26 29 30 32 34 35 37 39 41 43 44 45 46 G020871 Occupant safety......................................................................................

SAFETY 01 01 Safety Occupant safety 01 Volvo's concern for safety Safety is Volvo's cornerstone. Our concern dates back to 1927 when the first Volvo rolled off the production line. Three-point seat belts (a Volvo invention), safety cages, and energyabsorbing impact zones were designed into Volvo cars long before it was fashionable or required by government regulation. We will not compromise our commitment to safety. We continue to seek out new safety features and to refine those already in our cars. You can help. We would appreciate hearing your suggestions about improving automobile safety. We also want to know if you ever have a safety concern with your car. Call us in the U.S. at: 1-800-458-1552 or in Canada at: 1-800-663-8255. Occupant safety reminders How safely you drive doesn't depend on how old you are but rather on: • • • How well you see. Your ability to concentrate. How quickly you make decisions under stress to avoid an accident. The following suggestions are intended to help you cope with the ever changing trafficenvironment. 16 • • Never drink and drive. • • • Take a driver-retraining course. • Replace wiper blades when they start to leave streaks. • Take into account the traffic, road, and weather conditions, particularly with regard to stopping distance. If you are taking any medication, consult your physician about its potential effects on your driving abilities. Have your eyes checked regularly. Keep your windshield and headlights clean.

The front seat belts also include a tension reducing device which, in the event of a collision, limits the peak forces exerted by the seat belt on the occupant. • Buckling a seat belt • Pull the belt out far enough to insert the latch plate into the receptacle until a distinct click is heard. The seat belt retractor is normally "unlocked" and you can move freely, provided that the shoulder belt is not pulled out too far. G020104 NOTE The seat belt is easiest to reach by grasping it near the lower seat belt guide, not over the shoulder. Adjusting the seat belt Seat belts should always be worn by all occupants of your vehicle. Children should be properly restrained, using an infant, car, or booster seat determined by age, weight and height. Volvo also believes no child should sit in the front seat of a vehicle. Most states and provinces make it mandatory for occupants of a vehicle to use seat belts. Seat belt pretensioners All seat belts are equipped with pretensioners that reduce slack in the belts. These pretensioners are triggered in situations where the front or side impact airbags deploy, and in cer- 18 The retractor will lock up as follows: • • • • if the belt is pulled out rapidly during braking and acceleration if the vehicle is leaning excessively when driving in turns When wearing the seat belt remember: • • The belt should not be twisted or turned. The lap section of the belt must be positioned low on the hips (not pressing against the abdomen). Make sure that the shoulder belt is rolled up into its retractor and that the shoulder and lap belts are taut. Unbuckling the seat belt To remove the seat belt, press the red section on the seat belt receptacle. Before exiting the vehicle, check that the seat belt retracts fully after being unbuckled. If necessary, guide the belt back into the retractor slot. WARNING Never use a seat belt for more than one occupant. Never wear the shoulder portion of the belt under the arm, behind the back or otherwise out of position. Such use could cause injury in the event of an accident. As seat belts lose much of their strength when exposed to violent stretching, they should be replaced after any collision, even if they appear to be undamaged. 01 Safety Seat belts Never repair the belt yourself; have this work done by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician only. • Any device used to induce slack into the shoulder belt portion of the three-point belt system will have a detrimental effect on the amount of protection available to you in the event of a collision. • The seat back should not be tilted too far back. The shoulder belt must be taut in order to function properly. • Do not use child safety seats or child booster cushions/backrests in the front passenger's seat. We also recommend that children who have outgrown these devices sit in the rear seat with the seat belt properly fastened. Seat belt use during pregnancy Seat belt guides (on both front seats) These guides are designed to help provide easier access to the seat belts. A belt can be taken out of the guide and slid to the rearmost part of the lower seat belt anchorage rod to make it easier for passengers to enter or exit the rear seat. G020105 • Seat belt guides G020106 WARNING 01 The seat belt should always be worn during pregnancy. But it is crucial that it be worn in the correct way. The diagonal section should wrap over the shoulder then be routed between the breasts and to the side of the belly. The lap section should lay flat over the thighs and as low as possible under the belly. It must never be allowed to ride upward. Remove all slack from the belt and insure that it fits close to the body without any twists. As a pregnancy progresses, pregnant drivers should adjust their seats and steering wheel such that they can easily maintain control of the vehicle as they drive (which means they must be able to easily operate the foot pedals and `` 19 01 Safety 01 Seat belts steering wheel). Within this context, they should strive to position the seat with as large a distance as possible between their belly and the steering wheel. belts are not fastened. These signals will last for approximately 6 seconds. Rear seats The seat belt reminder in the rear seat has two additional functions: Child seats Please refer to page 37 for information on securing child seats with the seat belts. • It provides information about which seat belts are fastened in the rear seat. A message will appear in the information display when a belt is being used. This message will disappear after approximately 30 seconds or can be erased by pressing the READ button on the left steering wheel lever. • It also provides a reminder if one of the occupants of the rear seat has unbuckled his/her seat belt while the vehicle is in motion. A visual and audible signal will be given. These signals will stop when the seat belt has been re-buckled or can be stopped by pressing the READ button. G018084 Seat belt reminder Seat belt reminder light in ceiling console The seat belt reminder consists of an audible signal, an indicator light near the rearview mirror and a symbol in the instrument panel that alert all occupants of the vehicle if their seat 20 The message in the information display can always be accessed, even if it has been erased, by pressing the READ button to display stored messages. Seat belt maintenance Check periodically that the seat belts are in good condition. Use water and a mild detergent for cleaning. Check seat belt mechanism function as follows: attach the seat belt and pull rapidly on the strap. 01 Safety Supplemental Restraint System Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) Where applicable, a text message will also be displayed when the SRS warning light illuminates. If this warning symbol is not functioning properly, the general warning symbol illuminates and either SRS AIRBAG SERVICE URGENT or SRS AIRBAG SERVICE REQUIRED will be displayed. G026330 WARNING • If the SRS warning light stays on after the engine has started or if it illuminates while you are driving, have the vehicle inspected by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician as soon as possible. • Never try to repair any component or part of the SRS yourself. Any interference in the system could cause malfunction and serious injury. All work on these systems should be performed by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician. SRS warning light As an enhancement to the three-point seat belts, your Volvo is equipped with a Supplemental Restraint System (SRS). Volvo's SRS consists of seat belt pretensioners, front airbags, side impact airbags, the occupant weight sensor, and inflatable curtains. All of these systems are monitored by the SRS control module. An SRS warning light in the instrument panel (see the illustration) illuminates when the ignition key is turned to position I, II, or III, and will normally go out after approximately 7 seconds if no faults are detected in the system. 01 WARNING If your vehicle has been subjected to flood conditions (e.g. soaked carpeting/standing water on the floor of the vehicle) or if your vehicle has become flood-damaged in any way, do not attempt to start the vehicle or put the key in the ignition before disconnecting the battery (see below). This may cause airbag deployment which could result in personal injury. Have the vehicle towed to a trained and qualified Volvo service technician for repairs. Automatic transmission Before attempting to tow the vehicle, use the following procedure to override the shiftlock system to move the gear selector to the neutral position: 1. Switch off the ignition for at least 10 minutes and disconnect the battery. 2. Wait at least one minute. 3. Insert the key in the ignition and turn it to position II. 4. Press firmly on the brake pedal. 5. Move the gear selector from Park (P) to the Neutral (N) position, see page 148, for information on manually overriding the shiftlock system. `` 21 01 Safety 01 Supplemental Restraint System The front airbags supplement the three-point seat belts. For these airbags to provide the protection intended, seat belts must be worn at all times. The front airbag system includes gas generators surrounded by the airbags, and deceleration sensors that activate the gas generators, causing the airbags to be inflated with nitrogen gas. G015167 G020111 The front airbag system Location of the passenger's side front airbag As the movement of the seats' occupants compresses the airbags, some of the gas is expelled at a controlled rate to provide better cushioning. Both seat belt pretensioners also deploy, minimizing seat belt slack. The entire process, including inflation and deflation of the airbags, takes approximately one fifth of a second. The location of the front airbags is indicated by SRS AIRBAG embossed on the steering wheel pad and above the glove compartment, and by decals on both sun visors and on the front and far right side of the dash. 22 • The driver's side front airbag is folded and located in the steering wheel hub. • The passenger's side front airbag is folded behind a panel located above the glove compartment. 01 Safety Supplemental Restraint System WARNING • The airbags in the vehicle are designed to be a SUPPLEMENT to-not a replacement for-the three-point seat belts. For maximum protection, wear seat belts at all times. Be aware that no system can prevent all possible injuries that may occur in an accident. • Never drive a vehicle with a steering wheel-mounted airbag with your hands on the steering wheel pad/airbag housing. • • The front airbags are designed to help prevent serious injury. Deployment occurs very quickly and with considerable force. During normal deployment and depending on variables such as seating position, one may experience abrasions, bruises, swellings, or other injuries as a result from deployment of one or both of the airbags. When installing any accessory equipment, make sure that the front airbag system is not damaged. Any interference in the system could cause malfunction. Front airbag deployment • The front airbags are designed to deploy during certain frontal or front-angular collisions, impacts, or decelerations, depending on the crash severity, angle, speed and object impacted. The airbags may also deploy in certain non-frontal collisions where rapid deceleration occurs. • The SRS sensors, which trigger the front airbags, are designed to react to both the impact of the collision and the inertial forces generated by it, and to determine if the intensity of the collision is sufficient for the seat belt pretensioners and/or airbags to be deployed. However, not all frontal collisions activate the front airbags. • If the collision involves a nonrigid object (e.g., a snow drift or bush), or a rigid, fixed object at a low speed, the front airbags will not necessarily deploy. • Front airbags do not normally deploy in a side impact collision, in a collision from the rear or in a rollover situation. • The amount of damage to the bodywork does not reliably indicate if the airbags should have deployed or not. 01 NOTE • Deployment of front airbags occurs only one time during an accident. In a collision where deployment occurs, the airbags and seat belt pretensioners activate. Some noise occurs and a small amount of powder is released. The release of the powder may appear as smoke-like matter. This is a normal characteristic and does not indicate fire. • Volvo's front airbags use special sensors that are integrated with the front seat buckles. The point at which the airbag deploys is determined by whether or not the seat belt is being used, as well as the severity of the collision. • Collisions can occur where only one of the airbags deploys. If the impact is less severe, but severe enough to present a clear injury risk, the airbags are triggered at partial capacity. If the impact is more severe, the airbags are triggered at full capacity. Should you have questions about any component in the SRS system, please contact a trained and qualified Volvo service technician or Volvo Customer Support: In the USA Volvo Cars of North America, LLC `` 23 01 Safety Supplemental Restraint System Customer Care Center P.O. Box 914 Rockleigh, New Jersey 07647-0914 WARNING • Do not use child safety seats or child booster cushions/backrests in the front passenger's seat. We also recommend that occupants under 4 feet 7 inches (140 cm) in height who have outgrown these devices sit in the rear seat with the seat belt fastened1. • Never drive with the airbags deployed. The fact that they hang out can impair the steering of your vehicle. Other safety systems can also be damaged. • The smoke and dust formed when the airbags are deployed can cause skin and eye irritation in the event of prolonged exposure. 1-800-458-1552 www.volvocars.us In Canada Volvo Cars of Canada Corp.

The OWS works with sensors that are part of the front passenger's seat and seat belt. The sensors are designed to detect the presence of a properly seated occupant and determine if the passenger's side front airbag should be enabled (may inflate) or disabled (will not inflate). 2 The OWS uses a PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF indicator lamp which will illuminate and stay on to remind you that the passenger's side front airbag is disabled. The PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF indicator lamp is located in the overhead console, near the base of the rearview mirror. NOTE When the ignition is switched on, the OWS indicator light will go on for up to 10 seconds while the system performs a self-diagnostic test. The OWS will disable (will not inflate) the passenger's side front airbag when: G018082 • • the system determines that an infant is present in a rear-facing infant seat that is installed according to the manufacturer's instructions, • the system determines that a small child is present in a forward-facing child restraint that is installed according to the manufacturer's instructions, • the system determines that a small child is present in a booster seat, • a front passenger takes his/her weight off of the seat for a period of time, • a child or a small person occupies the front passenger's seat. Occupant Weight Sensor (OWS) indicator light Volvo recommends that ALL occupants (adults and children) shorter than 4 feet 7 inches (140 cm) be seated in the rear seat of any vehicle with a passenger's side front airbag, and be properly restrained. Children should always be seated in child restraints appropriate for their size and weight. See also the child safety recommendations on page 35.

Do not assume that the passenger's side front airbag is disabled unless the PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF indicator lamp is lit. Make sure the child restraint is properly installed. If there is any doubt as to the status of the passenger's side front airbag, move the child restraint to the rear seat. The OWS is designed to enable (may inflate) the passenger's side front airbag anytime the 01 system senses that a person of adult size is sitting properly in the front passenger's seat. The PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF indicator lamp will be off and remain off. If a person of adult size is sitting in the front passenger's seat, but the PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF indicator lamp is on, it is possible that the person isn't sitting properly in the seat. If this happens: 1. Turn the vehicle off and ask the person to place the seatback in an upright position. 2. Have the person sit upright in the seat, centered on the seat cushion, with the person's legs comfortably extended. 3. Restart the vehicle and have the person remain in this position for about two minutes. This will allow the system to detect that person and enable the passenger's frontal airbag. 4. If the PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF indicator lamp remains on even after this, the person should be advised to ride in the rear seat. This condition reflects limitations of the OWS classification capability. It does not indicate OWS malfunction.

Box 914 Rockleigh, New Jersey 07647-0914 1-800-458-1552 • The seat belt should never be wrapped around an object on the front passenger's seat. This could interfere with the OWS system's function. • The front passenger's seat belt should never be used in a way that exerts more pressure on the passenger than normal. This could increase the pressure exerted on the weight sensor by a child, and could result in the airbag being enabled, which might cause it to deploy in the event of a collision, thereby injuring the child. In Canada Volvo Cars of Canada Corp. National Customer Service 175 Gordon Baker Road North York, Ontario M2H 2N7 1-800-663-8255 28 No objects that add to the total weight on the seat should be placed on the front passenger's seat. If a child is seated in the front passenger's seat with any additional weight, this extra weight could cause the OWS system to enable the airbag, which might cause it to deploy in the event of a collision, thereby injuring the child. WARNING Keep the following points in mind with respect to the OWS system. Failure to follow these instructions could adversely affect the system's function and result in serious injury to the occupant of the front passenger's seat: • The full weight of the front seat passenger should always be on the seat cushion. The passenger should never lift him/herself off the seat cushion using the armrest in the door or the center console, by pressing the feet on the floor, by sitting on the edge of the seat cushion, or by pressing against the backrest in a way that reduces pressure on the seat cushion. This could cause OWS to disable the passenger's side front airbag. • Do not place any type of object on the front passenger's seat in such a way that jamming, pressing, or squeezing occurs between the object and the front seat, other than as a direct result of the correct use of the Automatic Locking Retractor/Emergency Locking Retractor (ALR/ELR) seat belt, see page 36. • No objects should be placed under the front passenger's seat. This could interfere with the OWS system's function. 01 Safety Side impact protection airbags WARNING SIPS airbag deployment Location of the side impact (SIPS) airbag As an enhancement to the structural side impact protection built into your car, the car is also equipped with Side Impact Protection System (SIPS) airbags. The SIPS airbag system is designed to help increase occupant protection in the event of certain side impact collisions. The SIPS airbags are designed to deploy only during certain side-impact collisions, depending on the crash severity, angle, speed and point of impact. • The SIPS airbag system is a supplement to the structural Side Impact Protection System and the three-point seat belt system. It is not designed to deploy during collisions from the front or rear of the car or in rollover situations. • The use of seat covers on the front seats may impede SIPS airbag deployment. • No objects, accessory equipment or stickers may be placed on, attached to or installed near the SIPS airbag system or in the area affected by SIPS airbag deployment. • Never try to open or repair any components of the SIPS airbag system. This should be done only by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician. • In order for the SIPS airbag to provide its best protection, both front seat occupants should sit in an upright position with the seat belt properly fastened. • Failure to follow these instructions can result in injury to the occupants of the vehicle in the event of an accident. G025315 G020118 Side impact airbags – front seats only 01 NOTE SIPS airbag deployment (one airbag) occurs only on the side of the vehicle affected by the impact. The airbags are not designed to deploy in all side impact situations. Components in the SIPS airbag system This SIPS airbag system consists of gas generators and side airbag modules built into the outboard sides of both front seat backrests. 29 01 Safety 01 Volvo Inflatable Curtain (VIC) G007478 The Volvo Inflatable Curtain system This system consists of inflatable curtains located along the sides of the roof liners, stretching from the center of both front side windows to the rear edge of the rear side door windows. It is designed to help protect the heads of the occupants of the front and rear seats in certain side impact collisions. In certain side impacts, both the Inflatable Curtain (VIC) and the Side Impact Airbag System (SIPS airbag) will deploy. The VIC and the SIPS airbag deploy simultaneously. 30 NOTE If the inflatable curtain deploys, it remains inflated for approximately 3 seconds. WARNING • The VIC system is a supplement to the Side Impact Protection System. It is not designed to deploy during collisions from the front or rear of the car or in rollover situations. • Never try to open or repair any components of the VIC system. This should be done only by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician. • Never hang heavy items from the ceiling handles. This could impede deployment of the Inflatable curtain. 01 Safety Volvo Inflatable Curtain (VIC) 01 WARNING In order for the VIC to provide its best protection, all occupants of the vehicle should sit in an upright position with the seat belt properly fastened; adults using the seat belt and children using the proper child restraint system. Only adults should sit in the front seats. Children must never be allowed in the front passenger's seat, see page 36 for guidelines. Failure to follow these instructions can result in injury to the vehicle occupants in an accident. 31 01 Safety 01 Whiplash Protection System G020347 Whiplash Protection System (WHIPS) – front seats only The WHIPS system consists of specially designed hinges and brackets on the front seat backrests designed to help absorb some of the energy generated in a collision from the rear (when the vehicle is "rearended"). In the event of a collision of this type, the hinges and brackets of the front seat backrests are designed to change position slightly to allow the backrest/head restraint to help support the occupant's head before moving slightly rearward. This movement helps absorb some of the forces that could result in whiplash. 32 WARNING • • The WHIPS system is designed to supplement the other safety systems in your car. For this system to function properly, the three-point seat belt must be worn. Please be aware that no system can prevent all possible injuries that may occur in an accident. The WHIPS system is designed to function in certain collisions from the rear, depending on the crash severity, angle and speed. WARNING • Occupants in the front seats must never sit out of position. The occupant's back must be as upright as comfort allows and be against the seat back with the seat belt properly fastened. • If your car has been involved in a rearend collision, the front seat backrests must be inspected by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician, even if the seats appear to be undamaged. 01 Safety Whiplash Protection System 01 Certain components in the WHIPS system may need to be replaced. Do not attempt to service any component in the WHIPS system yourself. G020125 • G020126 WARNING WARNING Any contact between the front seat backrests and the folded rear seat could impede the function of the WHIPS system. If the rear seat is folded down, the occupied front seats must be adjusted forward so that they do not touch the folded rear seat. • Boxes, suitcases, etc. wedged behind the front seats could impede the function of the WHIPS system. • If the rear seat backrests are folded down, cargo must be secured to prevent it from sliding forward against the front seat backrests in the event of a collision from the rear. This could interfere with the action of the WHIPS system. 33 01 Safety 01 Crash mode Driving after a collision fuel lines, sensors for one of the safety systems, the brake system, etc. WARNING Never attempt to repair the vehicle yourself or to reset the electrical system after the vehicle has displayed CRASH MODE SEE MANUAL. This could result in injury or improper system function. • Restoring the vehicle to normal operating mode should only be done by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician. G026363 • • If the vehicle has been involved in a collision, the text CRASH MODE SEE MANUAL may appear in the information display. This indicates that the vehicle's functionality has been reduced. This text can only be shown if the display is undamaged and the vehicle's electrical system is intact. CRASH MODE is a feature that is triggered if one or more of the safety systems (for example, front or side airbags, an inflatable curtain, or one or more of the seat belt pretensioners) has deployed. The collision may have damaged an important function in the vehicle, such as the 34 After CRASH MODE SEE MANUAL has been displayed, if you detect the odor of fuel vapor, or see any signs of fuel leakage, do not attempt to start the vehicle. Leave the vehicle immediately. Attempting to start the vehicle If damage to the vehicle is minor and there is no fuel leakage, you may attempt to start the vehicle. To do so: 1. Remove the ignition key or optional keyless drive start control, see page 144. 2. Reinsert the key or start control in the ignition switch. The vehicle will then attempt to reset CRASH MODE to normal mode. 3. Try to start the vehicle. Moving the vehicle If the electrical system is able to reset system status to normal (CRASH MODE SEE MANUAL will no longer be displayed), the vehicle may be moved carefully from its present position, if for example, it is blocking traffic. It should, however, not be moved farther than is absolutely necessary. WARNING Even if the vehicle appears to be drivable after CRASH MODE has been set, it should not be driven or towed (pulled by another vehicle). There may be concealed damage that could make it difficult or impossible to control. The vehicle should be transported on a flatbed tow truck to a trained and qualified Volvo service technician for inspection/ repairs. 01 Safety Child safety Children should be seated safely Volvo recommends the proper use of restraint systems for all occupants including children. Remember that, regardless of age and size, a child should always be properly restrained in a car. Your car is also equipped with ISOFIX/LATCH attachments, which make it more convenient to install child seats. Some restraint systems for children are designed to be secured in the vehicle by lap belts or the lap portion of a lap-shoulder belt. Such child restraint systems can help protect children in cars in the event of an accident only if they are used properly. However, children could be endangered in a crash if the child restraints are not properly secured in the vehicle. Failure to follow the installation instructions for your child restraint can result in your child striking the vehicle's interior in a sudden stop. Holding a child in your arms is NOT a suitable substitute for a child restraint system. In an accident, a child held in a person's arms can be crushed between the vehicle's interior and an unrestrained person. The child could also be injured by striking the interior, or by being ejected from the vehicle during a sudden maneuver or impact. The same can also happen if the infant or child rides unrestrained on the seat. Other occupants should also be properly restrained to help reduce the chance of injuring or increasing the injury of a child. All states and provinces have legislation governing how and where children should be carried in a car. Find out the regulations existing in your state or province. Recent accident statistics have shown that children are safer in rear seating positions than front seating positions when properly restrained. A child restraint system can help protect a child in a vehicle. Here's what to look for when selecting a child restraint system: • It should have a label certifying that it meets applicable Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS 213) – or in Canada, CMVSS 213. • Make sure the child restraint system is approved for the child's height, weight and development – the label required by the standard or regulation, or instructions for infant restraints, typically provide this information. • In using any child restraint system, we urge you to carefully look over the instructions that are provided with the restraint. Be sure you understand them and can use the device properly and safely in this vehicle. A misused child restraint system can result in increased injuries for both the infant or child and other occupants in the vehicle. 01 When a child has outgrown the child safety seat, you should use the rear seat with the standard seat belt fastened. The best way to help protect the child here is to place the child on a cushion so that the seat belt is properly located on the hips (see the illustration on page 43). Legislation in your state or province may mandate the use of a child seat or cushion in combination with the seat belt, depending on the child's age and/or size. Please check local regulations. A specially designed and tested booster cushion (not available in Canada) can be obtained from your Volvo retailer for children weighing 33 – 80 lb. (15 – 36 kg) and 38-54 inches (97 – 137 cm) in height. WARNING Do not use child safety seats or child booster cushions/backrests in the front passenger's seat. We also recommend that children under 4 feet 7 inches (140 cm) in height who have outgrown these devices sit in the rear seat with the seat belt fastened. `` 35 01 Safety 01 Child safety Automatic Locking Retractor/ Emergency Locking Retractor (ALR/ ELR) Do not use child safety seats or child booster cushions/backrests in the front passenger's seat. We also recommend that children who have outgrown these devices sit in the rear seat with the seat belt properly fastened. To make child seat installation easier, each seat belt (except for the driver's belt) is equipped with a locking mechanism to help keep the seat belt taut. When attaching the seat belt to a child seat: 1. Attach the seat belt to the child seat according to the child seat manufacturer's instructions. 2. Pull the seat belt out as far as possible. 3. Insert the seat belt latch plate into the buckle (lock) in the usual way. 4. Release the seat belt and pull it taut around the child seat. A sound from the seat belt retractor will be audible at this time and is normal. The belt will now be locked in place. This function is automatically disabled when the seat belt is unlocked and the belt is fully retracted. • Volvo strongly recommends that everyone in the vehicle be properly restrained. • Volvo recommends that ALL occupants (adults and children) shorter than 4 feet 7 inches (140 cm) be seated in the back seat of any vehicle with a front passenger side airbag. • Drive safely! Volvo's recommendations Why does Volvo believe that no child should sit in the front seat of a car? It's quite simple really. A front airbag is a very powerful device designed, by law, to help protect an adult. Because of the size of the airbag and its speed of inflation, a child should never be placed in the front seat, even if he or she is properly belted or strapped into a child safety seat. Volvo has been an innovator in safety for over seventy-five years, and we'll continue to do our part. But we need your help. Please remember to put your children in the back seat, and buckle them up. Volvo has some very specific recommendations: • • 36 Volvo recommends that you do not disconnect the airbag system in your vehicle. WARNING Always wear your seat belt. Airbags are a SUPPLEMENTAL safety device which, when used with a threepoint seat belt can help reduce serious injuries during certain types of accidents. 01 Safety Child restraint systems 01 Convertible seat G026321 G026320 G026319 Child restraints Booster cushion Infant seat There are three main types of child restraint systems: infant seats, convertible seats, and booster cushions.

Additional HomeLink information can be found on the Internet at www.homelink.com. • If you use HomeLink to open a garage door or gate, be sure no one is near the gate or door while it is in motion. • When programming a garage door opener, it is advised to park outside of the garage. • Do not use HomeLink with any garage door opener that lacks safety stop and reverse features as required by U.S. federal safety standards (this includes any garage door opener model manufactured before April 1, 1982). A garage door that cannot detect an object - signaling the door to stop and reverse does not meet current U.S. federal safety standards. For more information, contact HomeLink at: www.homelink.com. Retain the original transmitter of the RF device you are programming for use in other vehicles as well as for future HomeLink programming. It is also suggested that upon the sale of the vehicle, the programmed HomeLink buttons be erased for security purposes. Refer to “Erasing HomeLink Buttons”. Programming HomeLink NOTE 02 Some vehicles may require the ignition switch to be turned on or to the second (“accessories”) position for programming and/or operation of HomeLink. It is also recommended that a new battery be placed in the hand-held transmitter of the device being programmed to HomeLink for quicker training and accurate transmission of the radio-frequency signal. 1. Position the end of your hand-held transmitter 1–3 inches (5–14 cm) away from the HomeLink button you wish to program while keeping the indicator light in view. 2. Simultaneously press and hold both the chosen HomeLink and hand-held transmitter buttons until the HomeLink indicator light changes from a slow to a rapidly blinking light. Now you may release both the HomeLink and hand-held transmitter buttons. `` 85 02 Instruments and controls HomeLink® Wireless Control System (option) NOTE 02 Some devices may require you to replace this Programming Step 2 with procedures noted in the “Gate Operator / Canadian Programming” section. If the HomeLink indicator light does not change to a rapidly blinking light after performing these steps, contact HomeLink at www.homelink.com. 3. Firmly press, hold for five seconds and release the programmed HomeLink button up to two separate times to activate the door. If the door does not activate, press and hold the just-trained HomeLink button and observe the indicator light. • • If the indicator light stays on constantly, programming is complete and your device should activate when the HomeLink button is pressed and released. If the indicator light blinks rapidly for two seconds and then turns to a constant light continue with “Programming” steps 4-6 to complete the programming of a rolling code equipped device (most commonly a garage door opener). 4. At the garage door opener receiver (motorhead unit) in the garage, locate the “learn” or “smart” button. This can usually be 86 found where the hanging antenna wire is attached to the motor-head unit. 5. Firmly press and release the “learn” or “smart” button. (The name and color of the button may vary by manufacturer.) There are 30 seconds to initiate step 6. 6. Return to the vehicle and firmly press, hold for two seconds and release the programmed HomeLink button. Repeat the “press/hold/release” sequence a second time, and, depending on the brand of the garage door opener (or other rolling code equipped device), repeat this sequence a third time to complete the programming process. HomeLink should now activate your rolling code equipped device. Gate Operator/Canadian Programming Canadian radio-frequency laws require transmitter signals to “time-out” (or quit) after several seconds of transmission – which may not be long enough for HomeLink to pick up the signal during programming. Similar to this Canadian law, some U.S. gate operators are designed to “time-out” in the same manner. If you live in Canada or you are having difficulties programming a gate operator or garage door opener by using the “Programming” procedures, replace “Programming HomeLink” step 2 with the following: • Continue to press and hold the HomeLink button while you press and release every two seconds (“cycle”) your handheld transmitter until the HomeLink indicator light changes from a slow to a rapidly blinking light. Now you may release both the HomeLink and hand-held transmitter buttons. Proceed with “Programming” step 3 to complete. Using HomeLink To operate, simply press and release the programmed HomeLink button. Activation will now occur for the trained device (i.e., garage door opener, gate operator, security system, entry door lock, home/office lighting, etc.). For convenience, the hand-held transmitter of the device may also be used at any time. In the event that there are still programming difficulties or questions, contact HomeLink at: www.homelink.com. 02 Instruments and controls HomeLink® Wireless Control System (option) Erasing HomeLink Buttons To erase programming from the three HomeLink buttons (individual buttons cannot be erased but can be “reprogrammed” as outlined below), follow the step noted: • Press and hold the two outer HomeLink buttons until the indicator light begins to flash-after 10 seconds. Release both buttons. Do not hold for longer that 20 seconds. HomeLink is now in the train (or learning) mode and can be programmed at any time beginning with “Programming” step 1. Reprogramming a Single HomeLink Button To program a device to HomeLink using a HomeLink button previously trained, follow these steps: This device complies with FCC rules part 15 and Industry Canada (IC) RSS-210. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) This device must accept any interference that may be received including interference that may cause undesired operation. 02 NOTE The transmitter has been tested and complies with FCC and IC rules. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the device.1 HomeLink and the HomeLink house are registered trademarks of Johnson Controls, Inc. 1. Press and hold the desired HomeLink button. DO NOT release the button. 2. The indicator light will begin to flash after 20 seconds. Without releasing the HomeLink button, proceed with “Programming” - step 1.

CLIMATE 03 03 Climate General information 03 Air conditioning – A/C Fog on the inside of the windows Passenger compartment filter Your car is equipped with a climate control system that includes either manually adjustable air conditioning or optional Electronic Climate Control (ECC). The defroster function should be used to remove fog or mist from the inside of the windows. Keeping the windows clean with a commercially available window washing spray will also help prevent fogging or misting Replace the cabin air filter with a new one at the recommended intervals. Please refer to your Warranty and Service Records Information booklet, or consult a trained and qualified Volvo service technician for these intervals. The filter should be replaced more often when driving under dirty and dusty conditions. The filter cannot be cleaned and therefore should always be replaced with a new one. The air conditioning system can be switched off, but for optimal air quality in the passenger compartment and to prevent the windows from fogging, the air conditioning should be left on – even in cool weather. NOTE In warm weather, a small amount of water may accumulate under the car when it has been parked. This water is condensation from the A/C system and is normal. Ice and snow Always keep the air intake grille at the base of the windshield free of snow. Climate control maintenance Special tools and equipment are required to maintain and carry out repairs on the climate system. Work of this type should only be done by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician. NOTE There are different types of cabin air filters. Ensure that the correct type is installed. Refrigerant Volvo cares about the environment. The air conditioning system in your car contains a CFC-free refrigerant – R134a. This substance will not deplete the ozone layer. The system contains 1.2 lbs (530 g) R134a (HFC 134a), and uses PAG oil. Display The display above the climate control panel shows the climate settings that have been made. Personal settings There are two functions in the climate system that can be set to your preferences: 90 • Blower speed to Auto mode (models with ECC only). • Timer controlled recirculation of the air in the passenger compartment. 03 Climate General information For information about how to make these settings, see the Personal settings section on page 82. closed. If you drive with the windows or moonroof open, it may be preferable to manually adjust the temperature and blower control (the LED in the AUTO switch should be off). Models equipped with ECC (option) Acceleration Sensors The air conditioning system is temporarily switched off during full throttle acceleration. • The sunlight sensor is on the upper side of the dashboard • The passenger compartment temperature sensor is located behind the climate system control panel. • The ambient temperature sensor is in the driver's side door mirror. • The humidity sensor is in the rearview mirror. 03 These sensors should never be obstructed. NOTE The sunlight sensor monitors the side of the vehicle from which the sun shines into the passenger compartment. This means that the temperature may differ slightly between the left and right air vents, even if the climate system temperature is set to be the same for both sides of the passenger compartment.

STARTING AND DRIVING 06 06 Starting and driving General information Economical driving conserves natural resources Better driving economy may be obtained by thinking ahead, avoiding rapid starts and stops and adjusting the speed of your vehicle to immediate traffic conditions. Observe the following rules: • • Whenever possible, avoid using the vehicle for driving short distances. This does not allow the engine to reach normal operating temperature. • Drive carefully and avoid rapid acceleration and hard braking. • Use the transmission's Drive (D) position as often as possible and avoid using kickdown. • • Do not exceed posted speed limits. • Maintain correct tire pressure. Check tire pressure regularly (when tires are cold). • Remove snow tires when threat of snow or ice has ended. 06 134 Bring the engine to normal operating temperature as soon as possible by driving with a light foot on the accelerator pedal for the first few minutes of operation. A cold engine uses more fuel and is subject to increased wear. Avoid carrying unnecessary items (extra load) in the vehicle. • Note that roof racks, ski racks, etc, increase air resistance and also fuel consumption. • At highway driving speeds, fuel consumption will be lower with the air conditioning on and the windows closed than with the air conditioning off and the windows open. • Using the onboard trip computer's fuel consumption modes can help you learn how to drive more economically. Other factors that decrease gas mileage are: • • • • Dirty air cleaner Dirty engine oil and clogged oil filter Dragging brakes Incorrect front end alignment Some of the above mentioned items and others are checked at the standard maintenance intervals. WARNING Driving with the liftgate open: Driving with the liftgate open could lead to poisonous exhaust gases entering the passenger compartment. If the liftgate must be kept open for any reason, proceed as follows: 1. Close the windows. 2. Set the ventilation system control to air flow to floor, windshield and side windows and the blower control to its highest setting. Weight distribution affects handling At the specified curb weight your vehicle has a tendency to understeer, which means that the steering wheel has to be turned more than might seem appropriate for the curvature of a bend. This ensures good stability and reduces the risk of rear wheel skid. Remember that these properties can alter with the vehicle load. The heavier the load in the cargo area, the less the tendency to understeer. 06 Starting and driving General information Handling, roadholding Driving through water Take particular care when driving through flowing water. • Clean the electrical connections for trailer wiring after driving in mud or water • When driving through water, maintain low speed and do not stop in the water. WARNING After driving through water, press lightly on the brake pedal to ensure that the brakes are functioning normally. Water or mud can make the brake linings slippery, resulting in delayed braking effect. 1 • Engine damage will occur if water is drawn into the air cleaner. • If the vehicle is driven through water deeper than 9 in (25 cm), water may enter the differential and the transmission. This reduces the oil's lubricating capacity and may shorten the service life of these components. • The vehicle can be driven through water up to a depth of approximately 9 in. (25 cm), at a maximum speed of 6 mph (10 km/h). • Volvo. Different types of antifreeze must not be mixed. CAUTION Vehicle load, tire design and inflation pressure all affect vehicle handling. Therefore, check that the tires are inflated to the recommended pressure according to the vehicle load. See the "Tire pressure" section. Loads should be distributed so that capacity weight or maximum permissible axle loads are not exceeded. • Do not allow the vehicle to stand in water up to the door sills longer than absolutely necessary. This could result in electrical malfunctions. • Volvo recommends using only genuine Volvo antifreeze in your vehicle's radiator. Your Volvo retailer stocks plenty of Volvo engine coolant to help protect your vehicle during cold weather. • Try to keep the fuel tank well filled – this prevents the formation of condensation in the tank. In addition, in extremely cold weather conditions it is worthwhile to add fuel line de-icer before refueling. • The viscosity of the engine oil is important. Oil with low viscosity (thinner oil) improves cold-weather starting as well as decreasing fuel consumption while the engine is warming up. For winter use, 5W-30 oil, particularly the synthetic type1, is recommended. Be sure to use good quality oil but do not use cold-weather oil for hard driving or in warm weather, see page 259 for more information. If the engine has been stopped while the car is in water, do not attempt to restart the engine. Have the car towed out of the water. Cold weather precautions If you wish to check your vehicle before the approach of cold weather, the following advice is worth noting: • Make sure that the engine coolant contains 50 percent antifreeze. Any other mixture will reduce freeze protection. This gives protection against freezing down to –31 °F (–35 °C). See section "Coolant". The use of "recycled" antifreeze is not approved by • 06 The load placed on the battery is greater during the winter since the windshield wipers, lighting, etc. are used more often. Moreover, the capacity of the battery decreases as the temperature drops. In very cold weather, a poorly charged battery can freeze and be damaged. It is therefore advisable to check the state of charge Synthetic oil is not used when the oil is changed at the normal maintenance intervals except at owner request and at additional charge. Please consult your Volvo retailer. `` 135 06 Starting and driving General information more frequently and spray an anti-rust oil on the battery posts. • • 06 • Volvo recommends the use of snow tires on all four wheels for winter driving – see the chapter "Wheels and tires." To prevent the washer fluid reservoir from freezing, add washer solvents containing antifreeze (see page 205 for the location of the washer fluid reservoir). This is important since dirt is often splashed on the windshield during winter driving, requiring the frequent use of the washers and wipers. Volvo Washer Solvent should be diluted as follows: Down to 14 °F (–10 °C): 1 part washer solvent and 4 parts water Down to 5° F (–15° C): 1 part washer solvent and 3 parts water Down to 0° F (–18° C): 1 part washer solvent and 2 parts water Down to –18° F (–28° C): 1 part washer solvent and 1 part water. Use Volvo Teflon Lock Spray in the locks. NOTE Avoid using de-icing sprays as they can cause damage to the locks. 2 136 Conserving electrical current NOTE Keep the following in mind to help minimize battery drain: • • • When the engine is not running, avoid turning the ignition key to position II. Many electrical systems (the audio system, the optional navigation system, power windows, etc) will function with the ignition key in position I. This position reduces drain on the battery. Please keep in mind that using systems, accessories, etc that consume a great deal of current when the engine is not running could result in the battery being completely drained. The optional 12 volt socket in the cargo area (certain models only) provides electrical current even with the ignition switched off, which drains the battery. • If the ignition is switched on, a warning message will be displayed in the text window in the instrument panel when the battery charge is low. • An energy conserving function designed into the vehicle's electrical system will switch off certain functions or reduce the load on the battery by, e.g., reducing the audio system's volume. Before a long distance trip It is always worthwhile to have your vehicle checked at a trained and qualified Volvo service technician before driving long distances. Your trained and qualified Volvo service technician will also be able to supply you with bulbs, fuses, spark plugs and wiper blades for your use in the event that problems occur. As a minimum, the following items should be checked before any long trip: • Check that engine runs smoothly and that fuel consumption is normal. • • • Check for fuel, oil, and fluid leakage Have the transmission oil level checked2. Check condition of drive belts. To prevent injury from contact with hot surfaces, do not inspect your vehicle's transmission fluid yourself. Have your vehicle's transmission fluid level inspected by a qualified Volvo service technician. 06 Starting and driving General information • • Check state of the battery's charge. • The brakes, front wheel alignment, and steering gear should be checked by your Volvo retailer only. • • Check all lights, including high beams. • Have a word with your Volvo retailer if you intend to drive in countries where it may be difficult to obtain the correct fuel. • Consider your destination. If you will be driving through an area where snow or ice are likely to occur, consider snow tires. Examine tires carefully (the spare tire as well), and replace those that are worn. Check tire pressures. Reflective warning triangles are legally required in some states/provinces. 06 137 06 Starting and driving Fuel requirements Octane rating engine's capacity, and for the smoothest possible operation. Minimum octane NOTE When switching to higher octane fuel or changing gasoline brands, it may be necessary to fill the tank more than once before a difference in engine operation is noticeable. G028920 Fuel Formulations Typical pump octane label Volvo recommends premium fuel for best performance, but using 87 octane or above will not affect engine reliability. 06 Volvo engines are designed to achieve rated horsepower, torque, and fuel economy performance using premium 91 octane fuel. Demanding driving In demanding driving conditions, such as operating the vehicle in hot weather, towing a trailer, or driving for extended periods at higher altitudes than normal, it may be advisable to switch to higher octane fuel (91 or higher) or to change gasoline brands to fully utilize your 138 Do not use gasoline that contains lead as a knock inhibitor, and do not use lead additives. Besides damaging the exhaust emission control systems on your vehicle, lead has been strongly linked to certain forms of cancer. Many fuels contain benzene as a solvent. Unburned benzene has been strongly linked to certain forms of cancer. If you live in an area where you must fill your own gas tank, take precautions. These may include: • standing upwind away from the filler nozzle while refueling • refueling only at gas stations with vapor recovery systems that fully seal the mouth of the filler neck during refueling • wearing neoprene gloves while handling a fuel filler nozzle. Use of Additives With the exception of gas line antifreeze during winter months, do not add solvents, thickeners, or other store-bought additives to your vehicle's fuel, cooling, or lubricating systems. Overuse may damage your engine, and some of these additives contain organically volatile chemicals. Do not needlessly expose yourself to these chemicals. WARNING Never carry a cell phone that is switched on while refueling your vehicle. If the phone rings, this may cause a spark that could ignite gasoline fumes, resulting in fire and injury. WARNING Carbon monoxide is a poisonous, colorless, and odorless gas. It is present in all exhaust gases. If you ever smell exhaust fumes inside the vehicle, make sure the passenger compartment is ventilated, and immediately return the vehicle to a trained and qualified Volvo service technician for correction. 06 Starting and driving Fuel requirements Deposit control gasoline (detergent additives) Volvo recommends the use of detergent gasoline to control engine deposits. Detergent gasoline is effective in keeping injectors and intake valves clean. Consistent use of deposit control gasolines will help ensure good drivability and fuel economy. If you are not sure whether the gasoline contains deposit control additives, check with the service station operator. NOTE Volvo does not recommend the use of store-bought fuel injector cleaning additives. tiveness of the emission control system and could result in loss of emission warranty coverage. State and local vehicle inspection programs will make detection of misfueling easier, possibly resulting in emission test failure for misfueled vehicles. NOTE Some U.S. and Canadian gasolines contain an octane enhancing additive called methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl (MMT). If such fuels are used, your Emission Control System performance may be affected, and the Check Engine Light (malfunction indicator lamp) located on your instrument panel may light. If this occurs, please return your vehicle to a trained and qualified Volvo service technician for maintenance. Unleaded fuel Each Volvo has a three-way catalytic converter and must use only unleaded gasoline. U.S. and Canadian regulations require that pumps delivering unleaded gasoline be labelled "UNLEADED". Only these pumps have nozzles which fit your vehicle's filler inlet. It is unlawful to dispense leaded fuel into a vehicle labelled "unleaded gasoline only". Leaded gasoline damages the three-way catalytic converter and the heated oxygen sensor system. Repeated use of leaded gasoline will lessen the effec- Gasoline containing alcohol and ethers Some fuel suppliers sell gasoline containing "oxygenates" which are usually alcohols or ethers. In some areas, state or local laws require that the service pump be marked indicating use of alcohols or ethers. However, there are areas in which the pumps are unmarked. If you are not sure whether there is alcohol or ethers in the gasoline you buy, check with the service station operator. To meet seasonal air quality standards, some areas require the use of "oxygenated" fuel. Volvo allows the use of the following "oxygenated" fuels; however, the octane ratings listed on this page must still be met. Alcohol – Ethanol: Fuels containing up to 10% ethanol by volume may be used. Ethanol may also be referred to as Ethyl alcohol, or "Gasohol". Ethers – MTBE: Fuels containing up to 15% MTBE may be used. Fuel filler door Press the button on the light switch panel (see the illustration on page 63) with the ignition switched off to unlock the fuel filler door. Please note that the fuel filler door will remain unlocked until the vehicle begins to move forward. An audible click will be heard when the fuel filler door relocks. If you intend to leave your vehicle while it is being refueled, this feature enables you to lock the doors/liftgate while leaving the fuel filler door unlocked. 06 You can also keep the vehicle locked if you remain inside it during refueling. The central locking button does not lock the fuel filler door. Be sure the fuel filler door is not obstructed and is completely closed after refueling. Open the fuel filler cap slowly during hot weather. `` 139 06 Starting and driving Fuel requirements Refueling The fuel tank is designed to accommodate possible expansion of the fuel in hot weather, see page 257 for fuel tank volume. Be aware that the "usable" tank capacity will be somewhat less than the specified maximum. When the fuel level is low, such factors as ambient temperature, the fuel's "Reid vapor pressure" characteristics, and terrain can affect the fuel pump's ability to supply the engine with an adequate supply of fuel. Therefore, it is advisable to refuel as soon as possible when the needle nears the red zone, or when the fuel warning light comes on. CAUTION • Do not refuel with the engine running1. Turn the ignition off or to position I. If the ignition is on, an incorrect reading could occur in the fuel gauge • After refueling, close the fuel filler cap by turning it clockwise until it clicks into place. • Avoid overfilling the fuel tank. Do not press the handle on the filler nozzle more than one extra time. Too much fuel in the tank in hot weather conditions can cause the fuel to overflow. Overfilling could also cause damage to the emission control systems. • Avoid spilling gasoline during refueling. In addition to causing damage to the environment, gasolines containing alcohol can cause damage to painted surfaces, which may not be covered under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. • Do not use gasolines containing methanol (methyl alcohol, wood alcohol). This practice can result in vehicle performance deterioration and can damage critical parts in the fuel system. Such damage may not be covered 06 1 140 under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. If the fuel filler cap is not closed tightly or if the engine is running when the vehicle is refueled, the Check Engine Light (malfunction indicator lamp) may indicate a fault. However, your vehicle’s performance will not be affected. Use only Volvo original or approved fuel filler caps. 06 Starting and driving Ignition switch Ignition switch positions 0 – Locked position Remove the key to lock the steering wheel1. Never turn the key to position 0 while driving or when the vehicle is being towed. II – Drive position The key's position when driving. The vehicle's entire electrical system is activated.

I – Intermediate position2 Turn the key to this position and release it immediately. The key returns automatically to the Drive position. A chime will sound if the key is left in the ignition and the driver's door is opened (does not apply to vehicles with the optional keyless drive). Certain accessories, radio, etc. on, daytime running lights off. 1 2 06 Automatic transmission: the gear selector must be in the Park position. The optional keyless drive start control does not need to be removed. Please be aware that leaving the key in this positions I or II will increase battery drain. 141 06 Starting and driving Starting the vehicle To start the engine WARNING Before starting, check that the seat, steering wheel and mirrors are adjusted properly. Make sure the brake pedal can be depressed completely. Adjust the seat if necessary. pedal, turn the key to position III and release it. The starter motor will then operate automatically (for up to ten seconds) until the engine starts. If the engine fails to start, repeat this step. 1. Fasten the seat belt. 4. To release the gear selector from the Park (P) position, the engine must be running (or the ignition key must be in position II) and the brake pedal must be depressed. 2. Apply the parking brake if not already set. The gear selector should be locked in the Park (P) position (Shiftlock). See also page 148. 5. Select the desired gear. On models with an automatic transmission, the gear engages after a very slight delay which is especially noticeable when selecting R. NOTE • Immobilizer: If two of the keys to your vehicle are close together, e.g., on the same key ring when you try to start the vehicle, this could cause interference in the immobilizer system and result in the vehicle not starting. If this should occur, remove one of the keys from the key ring before trying to start the vehicle again. • Keylock: Models equipped an automatic transmission have a keylock system. When the engine is switched off, the gear selector must be in the Park (P) position before the key can be removed from the ignition switch1. • When starting in cold weather, the transmission may shift up at slightly higher engine speeds than normal until the automatic transmission fluid reaches normal operating temperature. • Do not race a cold engine immediately after starting. Oil flow may not reach some lubrication points fast enough to prevent engine damage. Manual transmission: The clutch must be fully depressed. NOTE After a cold start, idle speed may be noticeably higher than normal for a short period. This is done to help bring components in the emission control system to their normal operating temperature as quickly as possible, which enables them to control emissions and help reduce the vehicle's impact on the environment. 06 3. The vehicle is equipped with an autostart feature. Without touching the throttle 1 142 The optional keyless drive start control does not need to be removed from the ignition switch. 06 Starting and driving Starting the vehicle WARNING Volvo's floor mats are specially manufactured for your car. They must be firmly secured in the clips on the floor so that they cannot slide and become trapped under the pedals on the driver's side. • Always place the gear selector in Park (P) (manual transmission: first or reverse gear) and apply the parking brake before leaving the vehicle.and apply the parking brake before leaving the vehicle. Never leave the vehicle unattended with the engine running. • Always open garage doors fully before starting the engine inside a garage to ensure adequate ventilation. The exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide, which is invisible and odorless but very poisonous. 06 CAUTION Automatic transmission: The engine should be idling when you move the gear selector. Never accelerate until after you feel the transmission engage! Accelerating immediately after selecting a gear will cause harsh engagement and premature transmission wear. Selecting P or N when idling at a standstill for prolonged periods of time will help prevent overheating of the automatic transmission fluid. 143 06 Starting and driving Starting the vehicle with keyless drive (option as available) Starting a vehicle with keyless drive NOTE A keyless drive remote control must be inside the vehicle in order to start the engine. 1. Press the brake pedal (the clutch pedal must also be fully depressed on models with a manual transmission). Starting a vehicle with keyless drive 06 Keyless drive makes it possible to unlock, start and lock the vehicle without using a remote control. A start control is fitted in the ignition switch on vehicles equipped with the optional keyless drive. This control is used in the same way as the ignition key to start the engine. See also page 142 for general information on starting the engine. 144 G019420 G019410 2. Press in the keyless drive start control and turn it to position III. NOTE The vehicle is equipped with an autostart function that makes it possible to start the engine without holding the start control in position III. Turn the start control to position III and release it. The starter motor will then operate automatically (for up to ten seconds) until the engine starts. Starting the vehicle with the ignition key (remote control) A vehicle with keyless drive can also be started with the ignition key (if, for example, the battery in the keyless drive remote control is weak). To do so: Removing the keyless drive start control 1. Press the catch on the side of the start control (see the illustration). 2. Pull the keyless drive start control out of the ignition switch. 3. Insert the remote control into the ignition switch and turn it to position III to start the engine. See also page 142 for complete starting information. 06 Starting and driving Manual transmission, 6-speed (certain markets only) 6-speed manual transmission (option on certain models) Engaging reverse gear, 6-speed transmission CAUTION Never shift into reverse while moving forward. WARNING Depress the clutch pedal completely when changing gears1. Remove your foot from the clutch pedal while driving. The shift pattern should be followed. Overdrive (5th and 6th gears) should be used as often as possible to help improve fuel economy. 1 G018259 G018258 An extra mat on the driver's floor can cause the accelerator, brake, and/or clutch pedal to catch. Check that the movement of these pedals is not impeded. Not more than one protective floor covering may be used at one time. Reverse gear should only be engaged from a complete stop. 06 NOTE Reverse gear is electronically blocked to help prevent it from being selected while the vehicle is moving foward. Clutch interlock: The clutch must be fully depressed before you can start your car. If the clutch is notdepressed, it will not be possible to start the engine. 145 06 Starting and driving Automatic transmission (option) Shiftgate positions Gear selector positions R – Reverse P – Park The car must be stationary when shifting to position R. Select the P position when starting or parking. In P, the transmission is mechanically blocked (Shiftlock). Always apply the parking brake when parking. N – Neutral N is the neutral position. The engine can be started, but no gear is selected. Apply the parking brake when the car is stationary with the gear selector in N. NOTE G020237 If the gear selector is in the Neutral position and the vehicle has been at a standstill for at least 3 seconds, the brake pedal must be pressed before the gear selector can be moved to another position. Depress the button on the front of the gear selector knob to move the selector between the R, N, D, and P positions. The gear selector can be moved freely between the Geartronic (manual shifting) and Drive (D) positions while driving. G018264 06 In order to move the gear selector to another position: D - left position: automatic shifting, M - right position: manual shifting CAUTION The car must be stationary when selecting position P. 1 146 T5 models have 6 forward gears. 1. Turn the ignition key to position II (if the engine is not already running). 2. Depress the brake pedal. 3. Move the gear selector to the desired position. D – Drive D is the normal driving position. The Drive position offers 5 forward gears1. The car automatically shifts between the various forward gears, 06 Starting and driving Automatic transmission (option) the engine. If the current speed is too high for using a lower gear, the downshift will not occur until the speed has decreased enough to allow the lower gear to be used. based on the level of acceleration and speed. The car must be at a standstill when shifting to position D from position R. Manual shifting – Geartronic • The manual shifting mode (Geartronic) can be selected at any time to manually select forward gears, including while the car is moving. Cold starts (turbo engines) NOTE Reverse, Neutral, and Park cannot be selected in Geartronic mode. • • To access the Manual (M) shifting position from Drive (D), move the gear selector to the right to M. To return to the Drive (D) position from M, move the gear selector to the left. While driving • If you select the M position while driving, the gear that was being used in the Drive position will also initially be selected in the M position. • Move the gear selector forward (toward "+") to shift to a higher gear or rearward (toward "–") to shift to a lower gear. • If you hold the gear selector toward "–", the transmission will downshift one gear at a time and will utilize the braking power of Kickdown will not occur if the driver attempts to use this function when engine speeds are too high. The transmission will remain in the currently selected gear. If you slow to a very low speed, the transmission will automatically shift down. When driving before the engine has reached its normal operating temperature, the transmission will shift up at slightly higher engine speeds to heat the three-way catalytic converter as quickly as possible. Kickdown Automatic shift to a lower gear (kickdown) is achieved by depressing the accelerator pedal fully and briskly. An upshift will occur when approaching the top speed for a particular gear or by releasing the accelerator pedal slightly. Kickdown can be used for maximum acceleration or when passing at highway speeds. 06 Safety function To help prevent excessive engine speeds (rpm) that could lead to engine damage, the engine management system includes a function that prevents kickdown from taking place if the engine speed is too high. 147 06 Starting and driving Shiftlock override Overriding the shiftlock system 4. Insert the key blade, see page 120, into the opening and press it down until it bottoms. G018263 5. With the key blade pressed down, move the gear selector out of the P position. Shiftlock prevents the gear selector from being moved out of Park unless the ignition key is in position II and the brake pedal is depressed. 06 In certain cases it may be necessary to move the gear selector from the Park position manually. To manually override the Shiftlock system: 1. Apply the parking brake. 2. Depress the brake pedal. 3. There is a small cover below P-R-N-D on the gear selector panel. Open the rear edge of the panel. 148 06 Starting and driving Brake system Brake circuit malfunction The brake system is a hydraulic system consisting of two separate brake circuits. If a problem should occur in one of these circuits, it is still possible to stop the vehicle with the other brake circuit. If the brake pedal must be depressed farther than normal and requires greater foot pressure, the stopping distance will be longer. A warning light in the instrument panel will light up to warn the driver that a fault has occurred. If this light comes on while driving or braking, stop immediately and check the brake fluid level in the reservoir. NOTE Press the brake pedal hard and maintain pressure on the pedal – do not pump the brakes. WARNING If the fluid level is below the MIN mark in the reservoir or if a brake system message is shown in the information display, DO NOT DRIVE. Have the vehicle towed to a Volvo retailer and have the brake system inspected. Power brakes function only when the engine is running The power brakes utilize vacuum pressure which is only created when the engine is running. Never let the vehicle roll to a stop with the engine switched off. If the power brakes are not working, the brake pedal must be pressed approximately five times harder than usual to make up for the lack of power assistance. This can happen for example when towing your vehicle or if the engine is switched off when the vehicle is rolling. The brake pedal feels harder than usual. Water on brake discs and brake pads affects braking Driving in rain and slush or passing through an automatic car wash can cause water to collect on the brake discs and pads. This will cause a delay in braking effect when the pedal is depressed. To avoid such a delay when the brakes are needed, depress the pedal occasionally when driving through rain, slush, etc. This will remove the water from the brakes. Check that brake application feels normal. This should also be done after washing or starting in very damp or cold weather. Severe strain on the brake system The brakes will be subject to severe strain when driving in mountains or hilly areas, or when towing a trailer. Vehicle speed is usually slower, which means that the cooling of the brakes is less efficient than when driving on level roads. To reduce the strain on the brakes, shift into a lower gear and let the engine help with the braking. Do not forget that if you are towing a trailer, the brakes will be subjected to a greater than normal load. Anti-lock brakes (ABS) The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) helps to improve vehicle control (stopping and steering) during severe braking conditions by limiting brake lockup. When the system "senses" impending lockup, braking pressure is automatically modulated in order to help prevent lockup that could lead to a skid. 06 The system performs a self-diagnostic test when the engine is started and when the vehicle first reaches a speed of approximately 12 mph (20 km/h). The brake pedal will pulsate several times and a sound may be audible from the ABS control module. This is normal. `` 149 06 Starting and driving Brake system For optimal ABS braking effect: 1. Press down on the brake pedal with full force. The pedal will pulsate. 2. Steer the vehicle in the direction of travel and keep the brake pedal depressed. Electronic Brake Force Distribution (EBD) EBD is an integrated part of the ABS system. EBD regulates the hydraulic pressure to the rear brakes to help provide optimal braking capacity. 06 The switching of the ABS modulator will be audible and the brake pedal will pulsate during braking. Please be aware that ABS does not increase the absolute braking potential of the vehicle. While control will be enhanced, ABS will not shorten stopping distances on slippery surfaces. If the warning lamp lights up there is a malfunction of the ABS system (the standard braking system will still function) and the vehicle should be driven cautiously to a trained and qualified Volvo service technicianfor inspection. 150 WARNING If the BRAKES and ABS warning symbols light at the same time, there may be a problem in the brake system. If the brake fluid level is normal in these circumstances, drive carefully to a trained and qualified Volvo service technician to have the brake system checked. NOTE • When the EBA system is activated, the brake pedal will go down and pressure in the brake system immediately increases to the maximum level. You must maintain full pressure on the brake pedal in order to utilize the system completely. There will be no braking effect if the pedal is released. EBA is automatically deactivated when the brake pedal is released. • When the vehicle has been parked for some time, the brake pedal may sink more than usual when the engine is started. This is normal and the pedal will return to its usual position when it is released. Emergency Brake Assistance – EBA EBA is designed to provide full brake effect immediately in the event of sudden, hard braking. The system is activated by the speed with which the brake pedal is depressed. When the EBA system is activated, the brake pedal will go down and pressure in the brake system immediately increases to the maximum level. Maintain full pressure on the brake pedal in order to utilize the system completely. EBA is automatically deactivated when the brake pedal is released. 06 Starting and driving Stability system Dynamic Stability Traction Control (DSTC) 2. Hold down the RESET button (B) to toggle between DSTC SPIN CONTROL ON or OFF. The stability system consists of a number of functions designed help reduce wheel spin, counteract skidding, and to generally help improve directional stability. NOTE • The message DSTC SPIN CONTROL OFF indicates that the stability system's spin control function has temporarily been switched off. • The stability control indicator light will illuminate and remain on until spin control has been reactivated. • The spin control function is automatically enabled each time the engine is started. A pulsating sound will be audible when the system is actively operating and is normal. Traction control – TC TC is most active at low speeds. This is one of the stability system's permanent functions and cannot be switched off. G020349 This function is designed to help reduce wheel spin by transferring power from a drive wheel that begins to lose traction to the wheel on the opposite side of the vehicle (on the same axle). A - thumb wheel, B - RESET button Spin control (SC) The spin control function is designed to help prevent the drive wheels from spinning while the vehicle is accelerating. Under certain circumstances, such as when driving with snow chains, or driving in deep snow or loose sand, it may be advisable to temporarily switch off this function for maximum tractive force. Temporarily switching off Spin control • DSTC ON indicates that all system functions are active. Active yaw control – AYC (DSTC only) 06 This function helps maintain directional stability, for example when cornering, by braking one or more of the wheels if the vehicle shows a tendency to skid or slide laterally. This is one of the stability system's permanent functions and cannot be switched off. 1. Turn the thumbwheel (A) on the left-side steering wheel lever until the DSTC menu is displayed. `` 151 06 Starting and driving Stability system WARNING The car's handling and stability characteristics will be altered if the DSTC system functions have been disabled. DSTC-related messages in the text window • "TRACTION CONTROL TEMPORARILY OFF" – The system has been temporarily switched off due to high brake temperature and will automatically switch on again when the brakes have cooled. • 06 "ANTI SKID SERVICE REQUIRED" – the system has been automatically disengaged due to a fault. A trained and qualified Volvo service technician retailer should check the system. Symbols used by the stability system Stability system indicator light If the and symbols light up at the same time, read the message in the display. If only the symbol lights up, this indicates one of the following situations: • The light illuminates for approximately 2 seconds to indicate that the system is performing a self-diagnostic test when the engine is started. • If the light flashes while driving, this indicates that the stability system is actively functioning to help counteract wheel spin and/or a skid. • If this light stays on after the engine has started or comes on while driving, there may be a fault in the stability system. Consult a trained and qualified Volvo service technician. • If Spin control has been intentionally switched off, a message is displayed and the light will stay on as a reminder that this function has been disabled by the driver. WARNING Information symbol 152 The stability system is intended to help improve driving safety. It supplements, but can never replace, the driver's judgement and responsibility when operating the vehicle. Speed and driving style should always be adapted to traffic and road conditions. 06 Starting and driving Towing Emergency towing After the vehicle has been towed, the eyelet should be removed and returned to its storage space. Press the cover back into position. WARNING Do not use the towing eyelets to pull the vehicle up onto a flat bed tow truck. 3 G007607 Towing a vehicle with all four wheels on the ground The towing eyelet is located under the floor of the cargo area. This eyelet must be screwed into the positions provided on the right sides of either the front or rear bumper (see the illustration). WARNING Volvo does not recommend towing a disabled vehicle behind another vehicle. Significant difficulty in steering and braking, combined with unfavorable weather, traffic, and road conditions may make it impossible to maintain vehicle control. 2. Screw the towing eyelet in place first by hand and then using the tire iron until it is securely in place. 3. Turn the ignition key to position II. 4. Place the gear selector in neutral. For vehicles with automatic transmissions, follow instruction on page 148, "Shiftlock override" to allow the gear selector to be moved from the Park position. 5.

Apply the parking brake. To attach the towing eyelet: 1. Press the mark on the lower edge of the cover (1) to open it. cle at a standstill, great effort will be required to turn the steering wheel. WARNING Towing a vehicle with a locked steering wheel will make the vehicle impossible to steer. Never exceed 50 mph (80 km/h). Never exceed local towing speed limits and heed all local towing restrictions. • • Never tow farther than 50 miles (80 km). • The disabled vehicle should be towed in the forward direction only. 06 Keep the tow rope taut at all times while the vehicle is in motion. 2. Insert the key into the ignition to unlock the steering wheel. The steering wheel must be unlocked. With the engine off and the vehi`` 153 06 Starting and driving Towing WARNING • Never allow a vehicle to be towed without a driver behind the wheel of the disabled vehicle. • Never remove the key from the ignition while the vehicle is moving. The steering wheel could lock, making it impossible to steer the vehicle. • When the engine is not running, steering resistance and the effort needed to apply the brakes will be great. • Never attempt to tow a vehicle with a dead battery at night. Towing vehicles with front wheel drive Volvo recommends the use of flat bed equipment for towing vehicles with front wheel drive. If wheel lift equipment must be used, please use extreme caution to help avoid damage to the vehicle. 06 • 154 Check with state and local authorities before attempting this type of towing, as vehicles being towed are subject to regulations regarding maximum towing speed, length and type of towing device, lighting, marker flags, etc. Never attempt to push- or tow-start a vehicle with a dead battery. This would inject unburned fuel into the three-way catalytic converter(s), causing overheating, backfiring, and damage, see page 155 for instructions on jump starting the vehicle. • Remember that the power brakes and power steering will not function when engine is not running. The braking and steering systems will function but the brake pedal pressure required is 3 – 5 times above normal and greater steering effort must be exerted. • The towing eyelets must not be used for pulling the vehicle out of a ditch or for any similar purpose involving severe strain. Do not use the towing eyelets to pull the vehicle up onto a flat bed tow truck. In this case, the vehicle should be towed with the rear wheels on the ground if at all possible. If it is absolutely necessary to tow the vehicle with the front wheels on the ground, please refer to the towing information on the previous page. • Sling-type equipment applied at the front will damage radiator and air conditioning lines. • It is equally important not to use sling-type equipment at the rear or apply lifting equipment inside the rear wheels; serious damage to the rear axle may result. • If the vehicle is being towed on a flat bed truck, the towing eyelets must not be used to secure the vehicle on the flat bed. Consult the tow truck operator. CAUTION • WARNING 06 Starting and driving Jump starting 3. Connect the auxiliary battery's negative (–) terminal (3) to the ground point in your vehicle's engine compartment near the driver's side spring strut (4). 4.

First connect the auxiliary battery positive (+) terminal (1) to the positive (+) terminal in your vehicle's battery (2), marked with a "+" sign. 155 06 Starting and driving Transporting loads Loading the vehicle Your vehicle's load-carrying capacity is affected by factors such as: • • • the number of passengers • the amount of cargo. • tire inflation • the amount of optional or accessory equipment installed See the chapter "Wheels and tires" for more detailed information. Before loading the car, turn off the engine, and apply the parking brake when loading or unloading long objects. The gear selector can be inadvertently knocked out of position by long cargo, causing the car to move. 06 156 Keep the following in mind when loading the vehicle: • Load objects in the cargo area against the rear seat backrest. • • • Load heavy cargo as low as possible. • • Cover sharp edges on the load. The rear seats can be folded down to extend the cargo compartment, see page 111. • Remember that an object weighing 44 lbs (20 kg) produces a force of 2,200 lbs (1,000 kg) in a head-on collision at 30 mph (50 km/h)! Never exceed the rack manufacturer's weigh limits and never exceed the maximum rated roof load of 165 lbs (75 kg). • Avoid single-point loads. Distribute loads evenly. • Place heavier cargo at the bottom of the load. • Secure the cargo correctly with appropriate tie-down equipment. • Check periodically that the load carriers and load are properly secured. • Remember that the car's center of gravity and handling change when you carry a load on the roof. • The car's wind resistance and fuel consumption will increase with the size of the load. • Drive smoothly. Avoid rapid starts, fast cornering and hard braking. When the rear backrest(s) are folded down, the vehicle should not be loaded to a level higher than 2 in. (5 cm) below the upper edge of the rear side windows. Objects placed higher than this level could impede the function of the Volvo Inflatable Curtain. Load carriers (accessory) Load carriers are available as Volvo accessories. Follow the installation instructions supplied with the load carriers. Observe the following points when using load carriers: • To avoid damaging your car and to achieve maximum safety when driving, we recommend using the load carriers that Volvo has developed especially for your car. • Volvo-approved removable roof racks are designed to carry the maximum allowable roof load for this vehicle: 165 lbs (75 kg). For Non-Volvo roof racks, check the manufacturer's weight limits for the rack. Center wide loads. Secure all cargo with restraining straps anchored to the load securing eyelets. WARNING 06 Starting and driving Blind Spot Information System (BLIS)–option G020295 WARNING BLIS camera Indicator light BLIS symbol The Blind Spot Information System (BLIS) is an information system that indicates the presence of another vehicle moving in the same direction as your vehicle in the side-view mirror's "blind area". CAUTION The BLIS system should only be repaired by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician. • BLIS is an information system, NOT a warning or safety system. • BLIS does not eliminate the need for you to visually confirm the conditions around you, and the need for you to turn your head and shoulders to make sure that you can safely change lanes. • As the driver, you have full responsibility for changing lanes in a safe manner. The system is based on digital camera technology. The cameras (1) are located beneath the side-view mirrors. When one (or both) of the cameras have detected a vehicle in the blind area (up to approximately 10 ft. (3 meters) from the side of your vehicle, and up to approximately 31 ft. (9.5 meters) behind the side-view mirror), the indicator light in the door panel (2) illuminates. The light will glow continuously to alert the driver of the vehicle in the blind area. NOTE B A G020296 Introduction A = approx. 10 ft. (3 meters), B = approx. 31 ft. (9.5 meters) BLIS has an integrated function that alerts the driver if a fault should occur with the system. For example, if one or both of the system's cameras are obscured, a message (see the table on page 160) will appear in the information display in the instrument panel. If this occurs, clean the camera lenses. If necessary, the system can be temporarily switched off (for instructions see page 159). 06 The door panel indicator light illuminates on the side of the vehicle where the system has detected another vehicle. If your vehicle is passed on both sides at the same time, both lights will illuminate. `` 157 06 Starting and driving Blind Spot Information System (BLIS)–option When does BLIS function Darkness The system functions when your vehicle is moving at speeds above 6 mph (10 km/h). BLIS reacts to the headlights of surrounding vehicles. In order to be detected by BLIS, a vehicle in the blind area must have its headlights on. This means, for example, that the system will not detect a trailer without headlights that is being towed behind a car or truck. When you pass another vehicle: The system reacts when you pass another vehicle at a speed of up to 6 mph (10 km/h) faster than that vehicle. WARNING • BLIS does not react to cyclists or mopeds. • BLIS does not react to vehicles that are standing still. • The function of the BLIS cameras may be affected by intense light, or when driving at night in areas where there are no external sources of light (e.g., street lights, other vehicles, etc.). In such cases, the system may react as if the cameras were obscured. • In both of the above mentioned conditions, a message will appear in the information display. • When driving in such conditions, the system's function will be limited or it may be temporarily switched off, see page 159 for instructions. • When the message is no longer displayed, BLIS will return to normal function. • The BLIS cameras have the same limitation as the human eye. In other words, their "vision is impaired" by adverse weather conditions such as heavy snowfall, dense fog, etc. When you are passed by another vehicle: The system reacts if your vehicle is passed by another vehicle at a speed of up to 43 mph (70 km/h) faster than your vehicle. WARNING 06 • • BLIS does not function in sharp curves. • If you are towing a wide trailer, this may prevent the BLIS cameras from detecting other vehicles in adjacent lanes. BLIS does not function when your vehicle is backing up. How BLIS functions in daylight and darkness Daylight BLIS reacts to the shape of surrounding vehicles. The system is designed to help detect motor vehicles such as cars, trucks, buses, motorcycles, etc. 158 06 Starting and driving Blind Spot Information System (BLIS)–option Limitations CAUTION G018177 In certain situations, the BLIS indicator light(s) may illuminate even when there are no other vehicles in the area monitored by the system. NOTE If the BLIS indicator lights illuminate occasionally even when there are no other vehicles in the blind area, this does not indicate a fault in the system. The vehicle's own shadow against a large, light, smooth surface such as barriers between lanes on a highway • Clean the lenses carefully to avoid scratching. • The lenses are electrically heated to help melt ice or snow. If necessary, gently brush away snow from the lenses. Switching BLIS on and off In the event of a fault, Blind spot syst. service required will be displayed. G018178 The following are several examples of situations in which the BLIS indicator light(s) may illuminate even when there are no other vehicles in the area monitored by the system. Sunlight directly in the camera when the sun is low on the horizon 06 Light reflected from a wet road surface In order to function optimally, the BLIS camera lenses must be kept clean. They can be wiped clean with a soft cloth or wet sponge.

The camera will reset itself when these conditions have changed. have been function reduced 06 Starting and driving Park assist (Option/accessory) Introduction WARNING Park Assist is an information system, NOT a safety system. This system is designed to be a supplementary aid when parking the vehicle. It is not, however, intended to replace the driver's attention and judgement. G020294 Function The system is activated automatically when the vehicle is started. The indicator light in the button in the center console illuminates. • The front park assist system is active from the time the engine is started until the vehicle exceeds a speed of approximately 10 mph (15 km/h). It is also active when the vehicle is backing up. • Rear park assist is active when the engine is running and reverse gear has been selected. Front/rear park assist The park assist system is designed to assist you when driving into parking spaces, garages, etc. It utilizes four ultrasound sensors located in one or both bumpers to measure the distance to a vehicle, object or a person who may be close to the front or rear of your vehicle. Park assist is available in two versions: • • Rear bumper only Front and rear bumpers NOTE Rear park assist is deactivated automatically when towing a trailer if Volvo genuine trailer wiring is used. Front park assist The distance monitored in front of the vehicle is approximately 2.5 ft (0.8 m). The audible signal comes from the audio system's front speakers. It may not be possible to combine auxiliary headlights and front park assist since these lights could trigger the system's sensors. 06 Rear park assist The distance monitored behind the vehicle is approximately 5 ft (1.5 m). The signal comes from the rear speakers. The system must be deactivated when towing a trailer, carrying bicycles in a rear-mounted carrier, etc, which could trigger the rear park assist system's sensors. `` 161 06 Starting and driving Park assist (Option/accessory) Activating/deactivating park assist NOTE • Front park assist is disengaged automatically when the parking brake is applied. • If the vehicle is equipped with front and rear park assist, both systems will be deactivated by pressing the button. G021267 Audible signals from the park assist system Park Assist button (lright button in the illustration) The system is activated automatically when the vehicle is started. 06 162 • Press the Park assist button on the center console to temporarily deactivate the system(s). The indicator light in the button will go out when the system has been deactivated. • Park assist will be automatically reactivated the next time the engine is started, or if the button is pressed (the indicator light in the button will illuminate). The Park Assist system uses an intermittent tone that pulses faster as you come close to an object, and becomes constant when you are within approximately 1 ft (30 cm) of an object in front of or behind the vehicle. If the volume of another source from the audio system is high, this will be automatically lowered. If there are objects within this distance both behind and in front of the vehicle, the signal alternates between front and rear speakers. Faults in the system If the information symbol illuminates and PARK ASSIST SERVICE REQUIRED is shown on the information display, this indicates that the system is not functioning properly and has been disengaged. Consult a Volvo retailer or authorized Volvo service technician. CAUTION In certain circumstances, the park assist system may give unexpected warning signals that can be caused by external sound sources that use the same ultrasound frequencies as the system. This may include such things as the horns of other vehicles, wet tires on asphalt, pneumatic brakes, motorcycle exhaust pipes, etc. This does not indicate a fault in the system. 06 Starting and driving Park assist (Option/accessory) G007601 Cleaning the sensors Park assist sensors The sensors must be cleaned regularly to ensure that they work properly. Clean them with water and a suitable car washing detergent. 06 Ice and snow covering the sensors may cause incorrect warning signals. NOTE If the sensors are obstructed by e.g., dirt, snow, or ice, this could result in false warning signals from the park assist system. 163 164 166 168 170 171 172 174 175 176 177 178 179 180 181 183 188 G020918 General information...............................................................................

WHEELS AND TIRES 07 07 Wheels and tires General information Your vehicle is equipped with tires according to the vehicle's tire information placard on the B-pillar (the structural member at the side of the vehicle, at the rear of the driver's door opening), or on the inside of the fuel filler door on Canadian models. CAUTION Some Volvo models are equipped with an Ultra High Performance tire and wheel combination designed to provide maximum dry pavement performance with consideration for hydroplaning resistance. As such, they may be more susceptible to road hazard damage and, depending on driving conditions, may achieve a tread life of less than 20,000 miles (30,000 km). Even if this vehicle is equipped with Volvo’s advanced AWD or DSTC system, these tires are not designed for winter driving, and should be replaced with winter tires when weather conditions dictate. 07 The tires have good road holding characteristics and offer good handling on dry and wet surfaces. It should be noted however that the tires have been developed to give these features on snow/ice-free surfaces. Certain models are equipped with "all-season" tires, which provide a somewhat higher degree of road holding on slippery surfaces than tires without the "all-season" rating. However, for 166 optimum road holding on icy or snow-covered roads, we recommend suitable winter tires on all four wheels. WARNING • The wheel and tire sizes for your Volvo are specified to meet stringent stability and handling requirements. Unapproved wheel/tire size combinations can negatively affect your vehicle's stability and handling. Approved tire sizes are shown in the Tire inflation pressure tables, see page 170. • Any damage caused by installation of unapproved wheel/tire size combinations will not be covered by your new vehicle warranty. Volvo assumes no responsibility for death, injury, or expenses that may result from such installations. When replacing tires, be sure that the new tires are the same size designation, type (radial) and preferably from the same manufacturer, on all four wheels. Otherwise there is a risk of altering the car's roadholding and handling characteristics. Storing wheels and tires When storing complete wheels (tires mounted on rims), they should be suspended off the floor or placed on their sides on the floor. Tires not mounted on rims should be stored on their sides or standing upright, but should not be suspended. CAUTION Tires should preferably be stored in a cool, dry, dark place, and should never be stored in close proximity to solvents, gasoline, oils, etc. 07 Wheels and tires General information Tread wear indicator New Tires Remember that tires are perishable goods. As of 2000, the manufacturing week and year (Department of Transportation (DOT) stamp) will be indicated with 4 digits (e.g. 1502 means that the tire illustrated was manufactured during week 15 of 2002). • • Tire wear increases with speed. • Unbalanced wheels impair tire economy and driving comfort. • Tires must maintain the same direction of rotation throughout their lifetime. • When replacing tires, the tires with the most tread should be mounted on the rear wheels to reduce the chance of oversteer during hard braking. • Hitting curbs or potholes can damage the tires and/or wheels permanently. G020323 Tire age The tires have wear indicator strips running across or parallel to the tread. The letters TWI are printed on the side of the tire. When approximately 1/16" (1.6 mm) is left on the tread, these strips become visible and indicate that the tire should be replaced. Tires with less than 1/16" (1.6 mm) tread offer very poor traction. When replacing worn tires, it is recommended that the tire be identical in type (radial) and size as the one being replaced. Using a tire of the same make (manufacturer) will prevent alteration of the driving characteristics of the vehicle. Tires degrade over time, even when they are not being used. It is recommended that tires generally be replaced after 6 years of normal service. Heat caused by hot climates, frequent high loading conditions or Ultra Violet (U.V) exposure can accelerate the aging process. Correct front wheel alignment is very important. You should replace the spare tire when you replace the other road tires due to the aging of the spare. A tire's age can be determined by the DOT stamp on the sidewall (see the illustration). A tire with e.g., visible cracks or discoloration should be replaced immediately. 07 Improving tire economy • Maintain correct tire pressure. For the tire pressure tables, see page 170. • Drive smoothly: avoid fast starts, hard braking and tire screeching. 167 07 Wheels and tires Tire inflation Inflation labels Under-inflation or over-inflation may cause uneven treadwear patterns. G032520 G032513 WARNING Tire inflation placard on Canadian models Tire inflation placard on U.S. models Check tire inflation pressure regularly. 07 Tables listing the recommended inflation pressure for your vehicle can be found on page 170. A tire inflation pressure placard is also located on the driver's side B-pillar (the structural member at the side of the vehicle, at the rear of the driver's door opening). This placard indicates the designation of the factory-mounted tires on your vehicle, as well as load limits and inflation pressure. NOTE The placards shown indicate inflation pressure for the tires installed on the car at the factory only. Use a tire gauge to check the tire inflation pressure, including the spare, at least once a month and before long trips. You are strongly urged to buy a reliable tire pressure gauge, as automatic service station gauges may be inaccurate. Use the recommended cold inflation pressure for optimum tire performance and wear. 168 • Under-inflation is the most common cause of tire failure and may result in severe tire cracking, tread separation, or "blowout," with unexpected loss of vehicle control and increased risk of injury. • Under-inflated tires reduce the load carrying capacity of your vehicle. When weather temperature changes occur, tire inflation pressures also change. A 10-degree temperature drop causes a corresponding drop of 1 psi (7 kPa) in inflation pressure. Check your tire pressures frequently and adjust them to the proper pressure, which can be found on the vehicle's tire information placard or certification label. 07 Wheels and tires Tire inflation Checking tire pressure Cold tires Inflation pressure should be checked when the tires are cold. The tires are considered to be cold when they have the same temperature as the surrounding (ambient) air. This temperature is normally reached after the car has been parked for at least 3 hours. After driving a distance of approximately 1 mile (1.6 km), the tires are considered to be hot. If you have to drive farther than this distance to pump your tire(s), check and record the tire pressure first and add the appropriate air pressure when you get to the pump. If checking tire pressure when the tire is hot, never "bleed" or reduce air pressure. The tires are hot from driving and it is normal for pressures to increase above recommended cold pressures. A hot tire at or below recommended cold inflation pressure could be significantly under-inflated. To check inflation pressure: 1. Remove the cap from the valve on one tire, then firmly press the tire gauge onto the valve. 2. Add air to reach the recommended air pressure Speed ratings 3. Replace the valve cap. The speed ratings in the tables translate as follows: 4. Repeat this procedure for each tire, including the spare. M = 81 mph (130 km/h), V= 149 mph (240 km/ h), W= 168 mph (270 km/h) 5. Visually inspect the tires to make sure there are no nails or other objects embedded that could puncture the tire and cause an air leak. See also page 172 for an explanation of the designations on the sidewall of the tire. 6. Check the sidewalls to make sure there are no gouges, cuts, bulges or other irregularities. NOTE • If you overfill the tire, release air by pushing on the metal stem in the center of the valve. Then recheck the pressure with your tire gauge. • Some spare tires require higher inflation pressure than the other tires. Consult the tire inflation tables, see page 170, or see the inflation pressure placard. 07 Load ratings The load ratings in the tables above translate as follows: 91 = 1365 lbs (615 kg), 93 = 1433 lbs (650 kg), 99 = 1709 lbs (755 kg) 169 07 Wheels and tires Inflation pressure—U.S. models Tire inflation pressure table The following tire pressures are recommended by Volvo for your vehicle.

The following information is listed on the tire sidewall: The tire designation (the following figures are examples of a tire designation): 07 215: The width of the tire (in millimeters) from sidewall edge to sidewall edge. The larger the number, the wider the tire. 65: The ratio of the tire's height to its width. R: Radial tire. 172 15: The diameter of the wheel rim (in inches). M+S or M/S = Mud and Snow, AT = All Terrain, AS = All Season 95: The tire's load index. In this example, a load index of 95 equals a maximum load of 1521 lbs (690 kg). U.S. DOT Tire Identification Number (TIN): This begins with the letters "DOT" and indicates that the tire meets all federal standards. The next two numbers or letters are the plant code where it was manufactured, the next two are the tire size code and the last four numbers represent the week and year the tire was built. For example, the numbers 317 mean the 31st week of 1997. After 2000 the numbers go to four digits. For example, 2501 means the 25th week of 2001. The numbers in between are marketing codes used at the manufacturer's discretion. This information helps a tire manufacturer identify a tire for safety recall purposes. H: The tire's speed rating, or the maximum speed at which the tire is designed to be driven for extended periods of time, carrying a permissible load for the vehicle, and with correct inflation pressure. For example, H indicates a speed rating of 130 mph (210 km/h). NOTE This information may not appear on the tire because it is not required by law. Tire Ply Composition and Material Used: Indicates the number of plies indicates or the number of layers of rubber-coated fabric in the tire tread and sidewall. Tire manufacturers also must indicate the ply materials in the tire and the sidewall, which include steel, nylon, polyester, and others. 07 Wheels and tires Tire designations Maximum Load: Indicates the maximum load in pounds and kilograms that can be carried by the tire. Refer to the vehicle's tire information placard or the safety certification label, located on the B-Pillar or the driver's door or on the inside of the fuel filler door on Canadian models, for the correct tire pressure for your vehicle. Treadwear, Traction, and Temperature grades: See page 176 for more information. Maximum permissible inflation pressure: The greatest amount of air pressure that should ever be put in the tire. This limit is set by the tire manufacturer. The tire suppliers may have additional markings, notes or warnings such as standard load, radial tubeless, etc. 07 173 07 Wheels and tires Glossary of tire terminology Terminology • • Tire Identification Number (TIN): A number on the sidewall of each tire providing information about the tire brand and manufacturing plant, tire size and date of manufacturer. • Inflation pressure: A measure of the amount of air in a tire. • Standard load: A class of P-metric or Metric tires designed to carry a maximum load at 35 psi [37 psi (2.5 bar) for Metric tires]. Increasing the inflation pressure beyond this pressure will not increase the tires load carrying capability. • 07 174 Tire information placard: A placard showing the OE (Original Equipment) tire sizes, recommended inflation pressure, and the maximum weight the vehicle can carry. Extra load: A class of P-metric or Metric tires designed to carry a heavier maximum load at 41 psi [43 psi (2.9 bar) for Metric tires]. Increasing the inflation pressure beyond this pressure will not increase the tires load carrying capability. • kPa: Kilopascal, a metric unit of air pressure. • PSI: Pounds per square inch, a standard unit of air pressure. • B-pillar: The structural member at the side of the vehicle behind the front door. • Bead area of the tire: Area of the tire next to the rim. • Sidewall of the tire: Area between the bead area and the tread. • Tread area of the tire: Area of the perimeter of the tire that contacts the road when mounted on the vehicle. • Rim: The metal support (wheel) for a tire or a tire and tube assembly upon which the tire beads are seated. • Maximum load rating: a figure indicating the maximum load in pounds and kilograms that can be carried by the tire. This rating is established by the tire manufacturer. • Maximum permissible inflation pressure: the greatest amount of air pressure that should ever be put in the tire. This limit is set by the tire manufacturer. • Recommended tire inflation pressure: inflation pressure, established by Volvo, which is based on the type of tires that are mounted on a vehicle at the factory. This inflation pressure is affected by the number of occupants in the car, the amount of cargo, and the speed at which the vehicle will be driven for a prolonged period. This information can be found on the tire inflation placard(s) located on the driver's side B-pillar or on the inside of the fuel filler door on Canadian models, and in the tire inflation table in this chapter. • Cold tires: The tires are considered to be cold when they have the same temperature as the surrounding (ambient) air. This temperature is normally reached after the car has been parked for at least 3 hours. Properly loading your vehicle will provide maximum return of vehicle design performance. 07 Wheels and tires Vehicle loading Loading the vehicle Before loading your vehicle, familiarize yourself with the following terms for determining your vehicle's weight ratings, with or without a trailer, from the vehicle's Federal/Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS/ CMVSS) label, and the vehicle's tire information placard: Curb weight The weight of the vehicle including a full tank of fuel and all standard equipment. It does not include passengers, cargo, or optional equipment. Capacity weight All weight added to the curb weight, including cargo and optional equipment. When towing, trailer hitch tongue load is also part of cargo weight. Permissible axle weight The maximum allowable weight that can be carried by a single axle (front or rear). These numbers are shown on the Federal/Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS/ CMVSS) label. The total load on each axle must never exceed its maximum permissible weight. Gross vehicle weight (GVW) The vehicle's curb weight + cargo + passengers. NOTE • The location of the various labels in your vehicle can be found on page 252. • A table listing important weight limits for your vehicle can be found on page 255. weight may not safely exceed the available cargo and luggage load capacity calculated in Step 4. WARNING • Exceeding the permissible axle weight, gross vehicle weight, or any other weight rating limits can cause tire overheating resulting in permanent deformation or catastrophic failure. • Do not use replacement tires with lower load carrying capacities than the tires that were original equipment on the vehicle because this will lower the vehicle's GVW rating. Replacement tires with a higher limit than the originals do not increase the vehicle's GVW rating limitations. Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit (1) Locate the statement "the combined weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed XXX pounds" on your vehicle's placard. (2) Determine the combined weight of the driver and passengers that will be riding in your vehicle. (3) Subtract the combined weight of the driver and passengers from XXX kilograms or XXX pounds. (4) The resulting figure equals the available amount of cargo and luggage load capacity. For example, if the "XXX" amount equals 1400 lbs. and there will be five 150 lbs. passengers in your vehicle, the amount of available cargo and luggage load capacity is 650 lbs. (1400–750 (5×150) = 650 lbs.) 07 (5) Determine the combined weight of luggage and cargo being loaded on the vehicle. That 175 07 Wheels and tires Uniform tire quality gradings Uniform tire quality gradings ALL PASSENGER VEHICLE TIRES MUST CONFORM TO FEDERAL SAFETY REQUIREMENTS IN ADDITION TO THESE GRADES Quality grades can be found, where applicable, on the tire sidewall between the tread shoulder and maximum section width. For example: Treadwear 200 Traction AA faces of asphalt and concrete. A tire marked C may have poor traction performance. The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on braking (straight-ahead) traction tests and is not a measure of cornering (turning) traction. WARNING The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on braking (straight-ahead) traction tests and is not a measure of cornering (turning) traction. Temperature A TREADWEAR 07 The treadwear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of the tire when tested under controlled conditions on a specified government test course. For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one and one half (1 1/2) times as well on the government course as a tire graded 100. The relative performance of tires depends upon the actual conditions of their use, however, and many depart significantly from the norm due to variation in driving habits, maintenance practices and differences in road characteristics and climate. TRACTION The traction grades, from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B, and C, as measured under controlled conditions on specified government test sur- 176 TEMPERATURE The temperature grades are AA (the highest), A, B, and C, representing the tire's resistance to the generation of heat and its ability to dissipate heat when tested under controlled conditions on a specified indoor laboratory test wheel. Sustained high temperature can cause the material of the tire to degenerate and reduce tire life, and excessive temperature can lead to sudden tire failure. The grade C corresponds to a minimum level of performance that all passenger vehicle tires must meet under the Federal Motor Safety Standard No. 109. Grades B and A represent higher levels of performance on the laboratory test wheel than the minimum required by law. WARNING The temperature grade for this tire is established for a tire that is properly inflated and not overloaded. Excessive speed, underinflation, or excessive loading, either separately or in combination, can cause heat buildup and tire failure. 07 Wheels and tires Snow chains, snow tires, studded tires Snow chains ure to do so could reduce traction to an unsafe level or adversely affect handling. CAUTION Snow chains can be used on your Volvo with the following restrictions: • Check local regulations regarding the use of snow chains before installing. • • • Always follow the chain manufacturer's installation instructions carefully. Install chains as tightly as possible and retighten periodically. Do not mix tires of different design as this could also negatively affect overall tire road grip. • Winter tires wear more quickly on dry roads in warm weather. They should be removed when the winter driving season has ended. • Studded tires should be run-in 300– 600 miles (500–1000 km) during which the car should be driven as smoothly as possible to give the studs the opportunity to seat properly in the tires. The tires should have the same rotational direction throughout their entire lifetime. • • Snow chains should be installed on front wheels only. Use only Volvo approved snow chains. If accessory, aftermarket or "custom" tires and wheels are installed and are of a size different than the original tires and wheels, chains in some cases CANNOT be used. Sufficient clearances between chains and brakes, suspension and body components must be maintained. Some strap-on type chains will interfere with brake components and therefore CANNOT be used. Consult your Volvo retailer for additional snow chain information. • Never exceed the chain manufacturer's specified maximum speed limit. (Under no circumstances should you exceed 31 mph (50 km/h). • Avoid bumps, holes or sharp turns when driving with snow chains. • The handling of the vehicle can be adversely affected when driving with chains. Avoid fast or sharp turns as well as locked wheel braking. Snow tires, studded tires NOTE Please consult state or provincial regulations restricting the use of studded winter tires before installing such tires. Tires for winter use: • • Owners who live in or regularly commute through areas with sustained periods of snow or icy driving conditions are strongly advised to fit suitable winter tires to help retain the highest degree of traction. 07 It is important to install winter tires on all four wheels to help retain traction during cornering, braking, and accelerating. Fail- 177 07 Wheels and tires Temporary spare Temporary spare The spare tire in your car is called a "Temporary Spare". Recommended tire pressure (see the placard on the B-pillar or on the fuel filler door) should be maintained irrespective of which position on the car the temporary spare tire is used on. In the event of damage to this tire, a new one can be purchased from your Volvo retailer. WARNING Current legislation prohibits the use of the "Temporary Spare" tire other than as a temporary replacement for a punctured tire. It must be replaced as soon as possible by a standard tire. Road holding and handling may be affected with the "Temporary Spare" in use. Do not exceed a speed of 50 mph (80 km/h) with the "Temporary Spare" in use. CAUTION 07 178 The car must not be driven with wheels of different dimensions or with a spare tire other than the one that came with the car. The use of different size wheels can seriously damage your car's transmission. 07 Wheels and tires Wheel nuts Wheel nuts WARNING Never use the short type of nut for aluminium wheels. This could cause the wheel to come loose. Aluminum wheels – high nut Only the high type of nut can be used for aluminum wheels. This is considerably different from other types of nut because it has a rotating conical thrust washer. G020324 NOTE Low nut. High nut. There are two different types of wheel nut, depending on whether the wheels are steel or aluminum. This nut can also be used on steel wheels. Lockable wheel nut If steel wheels with lockable wheel nuts are used in combination with wheel covers, the lockable wheel nut must be fitted to the stud nearest the air valve. The wheel cover cannot otherwise be installed on the wheel. Steel rims – low nut Steel rims are normally secured using the low type of nut, although steel rims may also use the high type. 07 179 07 Wheels and tires Tire rotation • Contact a Volvo workshop if you are unsure about the tread depth. Tire rotation Your vehicle has no recommended tire rotation. The following information is intended to help you understand why. G020325 Tread set The arrows shows the direction of rotation of the tire Summer and winter tires • When switching between summer and winter tires, mark the tires to indicate where they were mounted on the car, e.g., LF = left front, RR = right rear • Tires with tread designed to roll in only one direction are marked with an arrow on the sidewall. 07 180 • Incorrectly mounted tires impair the car's braking properties and ability to force aside rain, snow and slush. • The tires with the most tread should always be at the rear (to reduce the risk of skidding). As a tire ages and the rubber cures, front and rear tires set at different angles. Therefore, if tires are rotated, the tread will eventually set at an angle that is a compromise. Even if ride, handling, and road noise may still seem acceptable, they may not be optimal. Further, tires that are rotated, but not on a regular basis, may actually cause more tire noise, faster tire wear, and unpleasant changes in steering feel and vehicle handling. A tire that can fully adapt to its position will provide better steering feel, lower tire noise, and better fuel economy. Braking stability performance Your vehicle is driven mainly by the front tires, which will wear faster. This can be beneficial. Having more tread on the rear tires will help reduce oversteer. Oversteer is when a vehicle wants to keep turning because of momentum and dynamic forces on its suspension. Suspension wear diagnostics Every suspension needs periodic inspection and maintenance. A tire's wear pattern can be an aid in detecting a suspension problem. Each tire, if left in place, tells a story about the suspension. Tire rotation, on the other hand, could make suspension wear harder to detect. Early detection is very important, because suspension problems can make tire wear worse. If you do rotate your tires… Please follow the tire manufacturer's recommendations, as outlined in the tire manufacturers tire warranty pamphlet. Your Volvo retailer can also provide guidance based on your particular driving circumstances. 07 Wheels and tires Changing a wheel The spare tire, jack, and crank are located under the carpet on the floor of the cargo area. To change a tire: 1. Apply the parking brake. 2. Put the gear selector in Park (P) or reverse on models with a manual transmission. 3. Block the wheels that are on the ground with wooden blocks or large stones. 4. Remove the wheel cap (where applicable) using the lug wrench in the tool bag. 5. With the car still on the ground, use the lug wrench to loosen the wheel nuts 1/2–1 turn by exerting downward pressure. Turn the nuts counterclockwise to loosen. 6. There are two jack attachment points on each side of the car. Position the jack correctly in the attachment (see the illustration) and crank while simultaneously guiding the base of the jack to the ground. The base of the jack must be flat on a level, firm, nonslippery surface. Before raising the car, check that the jack is still correctly positioned in the attachment. G024527 G020332 G020331 Changing a wheel Jack attachment points 7. Raise the vehicle until the wheel to be changed is lifted off the ground. 8. Unscrew the wheel nuts completely and carefully remove the wheel so as not to damage the threads on the studs. 07 `` 181 07 Wheels and tires Changing a wheel WARNING The jack must correctly engage the jack attachment. • Be sure the jack is on a firm, level, nonslippery surface. • Never allow any part of your body to be extended under a car supported by a jack. • Use the jack intended for the car when changing a tire. For any other job, use stands to support the car. • Apply the parking brake and put the gear selector in the Park (P) position or reverse on models with a manual transmission. • Block the wheels standing on the ground, use rigid wooden blocks or large stones. • The jack should be kept well-greased and clean, and should not be damaged. • No objects should be placed between the base of jack and the ground, or between the jack and the attachment bar on the vehicle. 1. Clean the contact surfaces on the wheel and hub. The jack (certain models) and tools should be returned to their correct storage places after use. 2. Lift the wheel and place it on the hub. • On vehicles equipped with a jack and spare wheel, the jack should be cranked down to the position shown in the illustration. • On vehicles equipped with the tire sealing system, the jack should be cranked down as far as possible and returned to its storage position in the foam block. 3. Install the wheel nuts and tighten handtight. Using the lug wrench, tighten crosswise until all nuts are snug. 4. Lower the vehicle to the ground and alternately tighten the bolts crosswise to 81 ft. lbs. (110 Nm). 5. Install the wheel cap (where applicable). Returning the jack to its storage space G029335 07 • Installing the wheel 182 WARNING The jack and any tools should always be returned to their proper storage compartments after use to help keep them securely in place in the event of sudden braking, etc. 07 Wheels and tires Tire Sealing System Introduction The system consists of an air compressor, a container for the sealing compound, wiring to connect the system to the vehicle’s electrical system via one of the 12-volt sockets, and a hose used to connect the system to the tire’s inflation valve. The 12-volt sockets are located in the front tunnel console and on the rear side of the tunnel console, in the rear seat. NOTE • The tire sealing system is only intended to seal holes on the tire’s tread area, not the sidewall. • Tires with large holes or tears cannot be repaired with the tire sealing system. WARNING • After using the tire sealing system, the vehicle should not be driven farther than approximately 120 miles (200 km). • Have the tire inspected by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician as soon as possible to determine if it can be permanently repaired or must be replaced. Accessing the tire sealing system The tire sealing system is stowed under the floor of the cargo area. To access it: • 1. Fold up or remove any carpet or other floor covering. 2. Open the floor hatch. 3. Lift out the tire sealing system. Tire sealing system–overview • The vehicle should not be driven faster than 50 mph (80 km/h) while using a tire that has been temporarily repaired with the tire sealing system. After using the tire sealing system, drive carefully and avoid abrupt steering maneuvers and sudden stops. G020400 Certain models are equipped with a tire sealing system that enables you to temporarily seal a hole in the tread surface and re-inflate a flat tire, or to adjust a tire’s inflation pressure.

Connect the electrical wire to the nearest 12-volt socket in the vehicle. 6. Start the vehicle’s engine. WARNING • • The vehicle’s engine should be running when the tire sealing system is used to avoid battery drain. Therefore, be sure the vehicle is parked in a well ventilated place, or outdoors, before using the system. 9. Turn off the compressor (press the on/off switch to position 0) when the correct inflation pressure has been reached. 10. Unscrew the hose from the tire’s inflation valve and reinstall the valve cap. 11. Disconnect the electrical wire from the 12-volt socket. Children should never be left unattended in the vehicle when the engine is running. 7. Check the tire’s inflation pressure on the gauge. Switch off the compressor briefly to get a clear reading from the pressure gauge. 8. Refer to the tire inflation tables for the correct inflation pressure. If the tire needs to be inflated, start the tire sealing system’s compressor (press the on/off switch to position I). If necessary, release air from the tire by turning the air release knob counterclockwise. 07 CAUTION The compressor should not be used for more than 10 minutes at a time to avoid overheating. 187 07 Wheels and tires Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Introduction The tire pressure monitoring system uses sensors mounted in the tire valves to check inflation pressure levels. When the vehicle is moving at a speed of approximately 20 mph (30 km/h) or faster, these sensors transmit inflation pressure data to a receiver located in the vehicle. NOTE USA – FCC ID: KR5S122780002 This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. 07 When low inflation pressure is detected, TPMS will light up the tire pressure warning light (also referred to as a telltale) in the instrument panel, and will display a message in the text window. The wording of this message is determined by the degree of inflation pressure loss. NOTE If a fault occurs in TPMS, the tire pressure warning light will flash for approximately 1 minute and TIRE PRESS SYST SERVICE REQUIRED will be displayed. Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.) As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is significantly under-inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle's handling and stopping ability. Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the driv- 188 er's responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale. Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when the system is not operating properly. The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire pressure telltale. When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for approximately one minute and then remain continuously illuminated. This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunction exists. When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS from functioning properly. Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function properly. 07 Wheels and tires Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) • • • TPMS indicates low tire pressure but does not replace normal tire maintenance. For information on correct tire pressure, please refer to the tables beginning, see page 170, or consult your Volvo retailer. The tire pressure warning light will not identify which tire is underinflated. Be sure to check all four tires. A certain amount of air seepage from the tires occurs naturally and tire pressure fluctuates with seasonal changes in temperature. Always check tire pressure regularly. WARNING Incorrect inflation pressure could lead to tire failure, resulting in a loss of control of the vehicle. Please note the following when changing or replacing the factory installed TPMS wheels/ tires on the vehicle: • Only the factory-mounted wheels are equipped with TPMS sensors in the valves. • If the vehicle is equipped with a temporary spare tire, this tire does not have a TPMS sensor. • If wheels without TPMS sensors are mounted on the vehicle, TIRE PRESS SYST SERVICE REQUIRED will be displayed each time the vehicle is driven above 25 mph (40 km/h) for 10 minutes or more. 1. Use a tire pressure gauge to check the inflation pressure of all four tires. 2. Re-inflate the tire(s) to the correct pressure (consult the tire pressure placard or the tables, see page 170 ). 3. In certain cases, it may be necessary to drive the vehicle for several minutes at a speed of 20 mph (30 km/h) or faster. This NOTE • If you change to tires with a different recommended inflation pressure, the TPMS system must be recalibrated to these tires. This must be done by an authorized Volvo retailer or workshop. • If a tire is changed, or if the TPMS sensor is moved to another wheel, the sensor's seal, nut, and valve core should be replaced. • When installing TPMS sensors, the vehicle must be parked for at least 15 minutes with the ignition off. If the vehicle is driven within 15 minutes, a TPMS error message will be displayed. Changing wheels with TPMS Erasing warning messages When a low tire pressure warning message has been displayed, and the tire pressure warning light has come on: Volvo does not recommend moving sensors back and forth between sets of wheels. will erase the warning text and the warning light will go out. NOTE • Once TPMS sensors are properly installed, the warning message should not reappear. If the message is still displayed, drive the vehicle for several minutes at a speed of 20 mph (30 km/h) or faster to erase the message. • Volvo recommends that TPMS sensors be fitted on all wheels used on the vehicle. CAUTION When inflating tires with TPMS valves, press the pump's mouthpiece straight onto the valve to help avoid bending or otherwise damaging the valve. 07 189 190 G020920 Washing and cleaning the car............................................................... 192 Paint touch up....................................................................................... 196 CAR CARE 08 08 Car care Washing and cleaning the car Washing the car • Tar spots can be removed with kerosene or tar remover after the car has been washed. • A stiff-bristle brush and lukewarm soapy water can be used to clean the wiper blades. Frequent cleaning of the windshield and wiper blades improves visibility considerably and also helps prolong the service life of the wiper blades. The following points should be kept in mind when washing and cleaning the car: • • • 192 Avoid washing your car in direct sunlight. Doing so may cause detergents and wax to dry out and become abrasive. To avoid scratching, use lukewarm water to soften the dirt before you wash with a soft sponge, and plenty of sudsy water. Bird droppings: Remove from paintwork as soon as possible. Otherwise the finish may be permanently damaged. • A detergent can be used to facilitate the softening of dirt and oil. • A water-soluble grease solvent may be used in cases of sticky dirt. However, use a wash place equipped with a drainage separator. • 08 The car should be washed at regular intervals since dirt, dust, insects and tar spots adhere to the paint and may cause damage. To help prevent corrosion, it is particularly important to wash the car frequently in the wintertime when salt has been used on the roads. Dry the car with a clean chamois and remember to clean the drain holes in the doors and rocker panels. • Wash off the dirt from the underside (wheel housings, fenders, etc). • In areas of high industrial fallout, more frequent washing is recommended. • After cleaning the engine, the spark plug wells should be inspected for water and blown dry if necessary. NOTE When washing the car, remember to remove dirt from the drain holes in the doors and sills. Exterior components Volvo recommends the use of special cleaning products, available at your Volvo retailer, for cleaning colored plastic, rubber, or ornamental components such as chromed strips on the exterior of your vehicle. The instructions for using these products should be followed carefully.Solvents or stain removers should not be used. CAUTION • Avoid waxing or polishing plastic or rubber components • Polishing chromed strips can wear away or damage the surface • Polishes containing abrasive substances should not be used 08 Car care Washing and cleaning the car CAUTION • During high pressure washing, the spray mouthpiece must never be closer to the vehicle than 13" (30 cm). Do not spray into the locks. • Dirt, snow, etc., on the headlights can reduce lighting capacity considerably. Clean the headlights regularly, for example when refueling. • When washing or steam cleaning the engine, avoid spraying water or steam directly on the electrical components or toward the rear side of the engine. • Always close the moonroof (option) and sun shade before washing your vehicle. • Never use abrasive cleaning agents on the moonroof. • Never use wax on the rubber seals around the moonroof. Keeping the underbody clean is most important, especially in the winter. Some automatic washers do not have facilities for washing the underbody. CAUTION • • • Before driving into an automatic car wash, turn off the optional rain sensor to avoid damaging the windshield wipers. Make sure that side view mirrors, auxiliary lamps, etc, are secure, and that any antenna(s) are retracted or removed. Otherwise there is risk of the machine dislodging them Chromed wheels: Clean chromeplated wheels using the same detergents used for the body of the vehicle. Aggressive wheel-cleaning agents can permanently stain chrome-plated wheels. Automatic washing – simple and quick We do NOT recommend washing your car in an automatic wash during the first six months (because the paint will not have hardened sufficiently). • An automatic wash is a simple and quick way to clean your car, but it is worth remembering that it may not be as thorough as when you yourself go over the car with sponge and water. When the car is driven immediately after being washed, apply the brakes several times in order to remove any moisture from the brake linings. • Engine cleaning agents should not be used when the engine is warm. This constitutes a fire risk. WARNING Exterior lighting Condensation may form temporarily on the inside of the lenses of exterior lights such as headlights, fog lights, or taillights. This is normal and the lights are designed to withstand moisture. Normally, condensation will dissipate after the lights have been on for a short time. Polishing and Waxing • Normally, polishing is not required during the first year after delivery, however, waxing may be beneficial. • Before applying polish or wax the vehicle must be washed and dried. Tar spots can be removed with kerosene or tar remover. Difficult spots may require a fine rubbing compound. • • After polishing use liquid or paste wax. • Waxing alone does not substitute for polishing a dull surface. • A wide range of polymer-based waxes can be purchased today. These waxes are easy to use and produce a long-lasting, highgloss finish that protects the bodywork against oxidation, road dirt and fading. • Do not polish or wax your vehicle in direct sunlight (the surface of the vehicle should not be warmer than 113 °F (45 °C). Several commercially available products contain both polish and wax. 08 `` 193 08 Car care Washing and cleaning the car CAUTION Volvo does not recommend the use of longlife or durable paint protection coatings, some of which may claim to prevent pitting, fading, oxidation, etc. These coatings have not been tested by Volvo for compatibility with your vehicle's clear coat. Some of them may cause the clear coat to soften, crack, or cloud. Damage caused by application of paint protection coatings may not be covered under your vehicle's paint warranty. Upholstery care Fabric Clean with soapy water or a detergent. For more difficult spots caused by oil, ice cream, shoe polish, grease, etc., use a clothing/fabric stain remover. Consult your Volvo retailer. Interior plastic components Cleaning interior plastic components should be done with a cleaning agent specially designed for this purpose. Consult your Volvo retailer. Leather care Volvo's leather upholstery is manufactured with a protectant to repel soiling. Over time, sunlight, grease and dirt can break down the protection. Staining, cracking, scuffing, and fading can result. 08 194 Suede-like upholstery can be cleaned with a soft cloth and mild soap solution. 4. Dry the stain with soft paper towels or a towel, and allow the leather to dry completely. Volvo offers an easy-to-use, non-greasy leather care kit formulated to clean and beautify your vehicle's leather, and to renew the protective qualities of its finish. The cleaner removes dirt and oil buildup. The light cream protectant restores a barrier against soil and sunlight. Protecting leather upholstery Volvo also offers a special leather softener that should be applied after the cleaner and protectant. It leaves leather soft and smooth, and reduces friction between leather and other finishes in the vehicle. This will help the leather resist staining and protect against sunlight's harmful UV rays. Volvo recommends cleaning, protecting and conditioning your vehicle's leather two to four times a year. Ask your Volvo retailer about Leather Care Kit 951 0251 and Leather Softener 943 7429. Cleaning leather upholstery Alcantera™ suede-like material 3. Dampen the stain thoroughly with the sponge. Let the sponge absorb the stain, do not rub. 1. Pour leather cleaner on a damp sponge and squeeze it until the cleaner foams. 2. Apply the foam to the stain by moving the sponge with circular movements. 1. Put a small amount of protectant cream on a cloth and apply a thin coating of cream to the upholstery with light circular movements. 2. Allow the leather to dry for 20 minutes. 08 Car care Washing and cleaning the car CAUTION • Under no circumstances should gasoline, naphtha or similar cleaning agents be used on the plastic or the leather since these can cause damage. • Take extra care when removing stains such as ink or lipstick since the coloring can spread. • Use solvents sparingly. Too much solvent can damage the seat padding. • Start from the outside of the stain and work toward the center. • Sharp objects (e.g. pencils or pens in a pocket) or Velcro fasteners on clothing may damage the textile upholstery. • Clothing that is not colorfast, such as new jeans or suede garments, may stain the upholstery. Cleaning floor mats The floor mats should be vacuumed or brushed clean regularly, especially during winter when they should be taken out for drying. Spots on textile mats can be removed with a mild detergent. For best protection in winter, Volvo recommends the use of Volvo rubber floor mats. Consult your Volvo retailer. Cleaning the seat belts Clean only with lukewarm water and a mild soap solution. 08 195 08 Car care Paint touch up Touching up minor paint damage Minor stone chips and scratches Paint damage requires immediate attention to avoid rusting. Make it a habit to check the finish regularly - when washing the vehicle for instance. Touch-up if necessary. Material: Paint repairs require special equipment and skill. Contact a trained and authorized Volvo service technician for any extensive damage. Minor scratches can be repaired by using Volvo touch-up paint. • • • • NOTE When touching up the vehicle, it should be clean and dry. The surface temperature should be above 60° F (15° C). Primer – can Paint – touch-up pen If the stone chip has not penetrated down to the metal and an undamaged layer of paint remains, the touch-up paint can be applied as soon as the spot has been cleaned.

The maintenance services contain several checks that require special tools and training, and therefore must be performed by a qualified technician. To keep your Volvo in top condition, specify time-tested and proven Genuine Volvo Parts and Accessories. Your Volvo passed several major inspections before it was delivered to you, in accordance with Volvo specifications. The maintenance procedures outlined in the Warranty and Service Records Information booklet, many of which will positively affect your vehicle's emissions, should be performed as indicated. It is recommended that receipts for vehicle emission maintenance be retained in case questions arise concerning maintenance. Inspection and maintenance should also be performed anytime a malfunction is observed or suspected. The Federal Clean Air Act – U.S The Federal Clean Air Act requires vehicle manufacturers to furnish written instructions to the ultimate purchaser to assure the proper servicing and function of the components that control emissions. These services, which are listed in the "Warranty and Service Records Information" booklet, are not covered by the warranty. You will be required to pay for labor and material used. Periodic maintenance helps minimize emissions Periodic maintenance will help keep your vehicle running well. Your Warranty and Service Records Information booklet provides a comprehensive periodic maintenance schedule up to 150,000 miles (240,000 km) of vehicle maintenance. The schedule includes components that affect vehicle emissions. This page describes some of the emission-related components. Applicable warranties – U.S/Canada In accordance with applicable U.S. and Canadian regulations, the following list of warranties is provided. • • • • New Vehicle Limited Warranty • • Emission Design and Defect Warranty Parts and Accessories Limited Warranty Corrosion Protection Limited Warranty Seat Belt and Supplemental Restraint Systems Limited Warranty Emission Performance Warranty These are the federal warranties; other warranties are provided as required by state/provincial law. Refer to your separate Warranty and 200 Service Records Information booklet for detailed information concerning each of the warranties. Vehicle Event Data (Black Box) Your vehicle's driving and safety systems employ computers that monitor, and share with each other, information about your vehicle's operation. One or more of these computers may store what they monitor, either during normal vehicle operation or in a crash or nearcrash event. Stored information may be read and used by: • • Volvo Car Corporation service and repair facilities 09 Maintenance and servicing Volvo maintenance • • 09 law enforcement or government agencies others who may assert a legal right to know, or who obtain your consent to know such information. 201 09 Maintenance and servicing Maintaining your car 09 Owner maintenance As needed: Periodic maintenance requirements and intervals are described in your vehicle's Warranty and Service Records Information booklet. • The following points can be carried out between the normally scheduled maintenance services. • Wash the car, including the undercarriage, to reduce wear that can be caused by a buildup of dirt, and corrosion that can be caused by salt residues. Clean leaves and twigs from air intake vents at the base of the windshield, and from other places where they may collect. Each time the car is refueled: • • Check the engine oil level. Clean the windshield, windshield wipers, headlights, and taillights. NOTE Complete service information for qualified technicians is available online for purchase or subscription at www.volvotechinfo.com. How Do States Use OBD II for Emission Inspections? Many states connect a computer directly to a vehicle's OBD II system. The inspector can then read "faults." In some states, this type of inspection has replaced the tailpipe emission test. How Can My Vehicle Fail OBD II Emission Inspection? Your vehicle can fail OBD II emission inspection for any of the following reasons. • If your Check Engine (MIL) light is lit, your vehicle may fail inspection. • If your vehicle's Check Engine light was lit, but went out without any action on your part, OBD II will still have a recorded fault. Your vehicle may pass or fail, depending on the inspection practices in your area. • If you had recent service that required disconnecting the battery, OBD II diagnostic information may be incomplete and "not ready" for inspection. A vehicle that is not ready may fail inspection. Monthly: • 202 Check cold tire pressure in all tires. Inspect the tires for wear. Emission inspection readiness • Check that engine coolant and other fluid levels are between the indicated "min" and "max" markings. What is an Onboard Diagnostic System (OBD II)? • Clean interior glass surfaces with a glass cleaner and soft paper towels. • Wipe driver information displays with a soft cloth. • Visually inspect battery terminals for corrosion. Corrosion may indicate a loose terminal connector, or a battery near the end of its useful service life. Consult a trained and qualified Volvo service technician for additional information. OBD II is part of your vehicle's computerized engine management system. It stores diagnostic information about your vehicle's emission controls. It can light the Check Engine light (MIL) if it detects an emission control "fault." A "fault" is a component or system that is not performing within an expected range. A fault may be permanent or temporary. OBD II will store a message about any fault. How Can I Prepare for My Next OBD II Emission Inspection? • If your Check Engine (MIL) light is lit – or was lit but went out without service, have 09 Maintenance and servicing Maintaining your car 09 your vehicle diagnosed and, if necessary, serviced by a qualified Volvo technician. • If you recently had service for a lit Check Engine light, or if you had service that required disconnecting the battery, a period of driving is necessary to bring the OBD II system to "ready" for inspection. A half-hour trip of mixed stop-and-go/highway driving is typically needed to allow OBD II to reach readiness. Your Volvo retailer can provide you with more information on planning a trip. • Maintain your vehicle in accordance with your vehicle's maintenance schedule. 203 09 Maintenance and servicing 09 Hood G031032 Opening the hood To open the hood: 1.

Refer to the Warranty and Service Records Information booklet for information on the oil change intervals. Volvo recommends Castrol. Volvo does not recommend the use of oil additives. • Synthetic oil is not used when the oil is changed at the normal maintenance intervals except at owner request and at additional charge. Please consult a trained and qualified Volvo service technician. Checking and adding oil The oil level should be checked every time the vehicle is refueled. This is especially important during the period up to the first scheduled maintenance service • • 206 The car should be parked on a level surface when the oil is checked. If the engine is warm, wait for at least 10– 15 minutes after the engine has been switched off before checking the oil. G020336 • G020338 NOTE Location of dipstick and oil filler cap CAUTION Checking the oil 1. Pull out the dipstick and wipe it with a lintfree rag. 2. Reinsert the dipstick, pull it out, and check the oil level. 3. Add oil if necessary. If the level is close to the MIN mark, add approximately 1 US quart (1 liter) of oil. 4. Run the engine until it reaches normal operating temperature. 5. Switch off the engine and wait for at least 10–15 minutes and recheck the oil level. If necessary, add oil until the level is near the MAX mark. • Not checking the oil level regularly can result in serious engine damage if the oil level becomes too low. • Oil that is lower than the specified quality can damage the engine. • Always add oil of the same type and viscosity as already used. • Never fill oil above the MAX mark. This could cause an increase in oil consumption. 09 Maintenance and servicing Engine oil 09 WARNING Do not allow oil to spill onto or come into contact with hot exhaust pipe surfaces NOTE Volvo uses different systems to indicate a low oil level or pressure. Some models have an oil pressure sensor, in which case a warning symbol (see page 57) is used to indicate low oil pressure. Other models have an oil level sensor, in which case the driver is alerted by the warning symbol in the center of the instrument panel and a text in the information display. Some models use both systems. Contact an authorized Volvo retailer for more information. 207 09 Maintenance and servicing Fluids Coolant G026425 Washer fluid 208 CAUTION G020334 09 Washer fluid reservoir Coolant reservoir The washer fluid reservoir is located in the engine compartment and holds approximately 6.8 US qts (6.5 liters). During cold weather, the reservoir should be filled with windshield washer solvent containing antifreeze. Normally, the coolant does not need to be changed. If the system must be drained, consult a trained and qualified Volvo service technician. • If necessary, top up the cooling system with Volvo Genuine Coolant/Antifreeze only (a 50/50 mix of water and antifreeze). • Different types of antifreeze/coolant may not be mixed. • If the cooling system is drained, it should be flushed with clean water or premixed anti-freeze before it is refilled with the correct mixture of water/antifreeze. • The cooling system must always be kept filled to the correct level, and the level must be between the MIN and MAX marks. If it is not kept filled, there can be high local temperatures in the engine which could result in damage. Check coolant regularly! • Do not top up with water only. This reduces the rust-protective and antifreeze qualities of the coolant and has a lower boiling point. It can also cause damage to the cooling system if it should freeze. • Do not use chlorinated tap water in the vehicles cooling system. 09 Maintenance and servicing Fluids 09 (280 °C), P/N 9437433 WARNING Never remove the radiator cap while the engine is warm. Wait until the vehicle cools. If it is necessary to top off the coolant when the engine is warm, unscrew the expansion tank cap slowly so that the overpressure dissipates. Brake fluid Replace: The fluid should be replaced according to the intervals specified in the Warranty and Service Records Information booklet. When driving under extremely hard conditions (mountain driving, etc), it may be necessary to replace the fluid more often. Consult your Volvo retailer. Always entrust brake fluid changing to a trained and qualified Volvo service technician. Power steering fluid The fluid level is checked at each service interval. Fluid type: Volvo power steering fluid or equivalent. Replace: No fluid change required. G020333 WARNING Brake fluid reservoir The brake fluid should always be between the MIN and MAX marks on the side of the reservoir. Check, without removing the cap, that there is sufficient fluid in the reservoir. If a problem should occur in the power steering system or if the vehicle has no electrical current and must be towed, it is still possible to steer the vehicle. However, keep in mind that greater effort will be required to turn the steering wheel.

Please consult a trained and qualified Volvo service technician. Operation in hot climates When temperatures exceed 104° F (40° C) in your area, Volvo recommends, for the protection of your engine, that you use a heavier weight oil, such as such as SAE 5W-40 or 0W-40. See the viscosity chart. The API Service Symbol "donut" is divided into three parts: Operation in temperate climates • Incorrect viscosity oil can shorten engine life. Under normal use when temperatures do not exceed 104° F (40° C), SAE 5W-30 will provide good fuel economy and engine protection. See the viscosity chart. The upper section describes the oil's performance level. • • The center identifies the oil's viscosity. Extreme engine operation G022917 Depending on your driving habits, premium or synthetic oils may provide superior fuel economy and engine protection. Consult your Volvo retailer or a trained and qualified Volvo service technician for recommendations on premium or synthetic oils. G023491 Volvo recommends Castrol.

Certain engine malfunctions, particularly involving the electrical, fuel or distributor ignition systems, may cause unusually high threeway catalytic converter temperatures. Do not continue to operate your vehicle if you detect engine misfire, noticeable loss of power or other unusual operating conditions, such as engine overheating or backfiring. A properly tuned engine will help avoid malfunctions that could damage the three-way catalytic converter. • Do not park your vehicle over combustible materials, such as grass or leaves, which can come into contact with the hot exhaust system and cause such materials to ignite under certain wind and weather conditions. • Excessive starter cranking (in excess of one minute), or an intermittently firing or flooded engine can cause three-way catalytic converter or exhaust system overheating. • Remember that tampering or unauthorized modifications to the engine, the Electronic Control Module, or the vehicle may be illegal and can cause three-way catalytic converter or exhaust system overheating. This includes: 11 264 NOTE Unleaded fuel is required for vehicles with three-way catalytic converters. 11 Specifications Volvo programs Volvo On Call Roadside Assistance Your new Volvo comes with a four year ON CALL roadside assistance.
