AUTO

The AUTO function automatically regulates climate control so that the selected temperature is attained. The automatic function controls heating, air conditioning, air quality sensor, fan speed, recirculation, and air distribution. If you select one or more functions manually, the other functions continue operating automatically. All manual settings are switched off when AUTO is pressed.

Temperature

The two knobs can be used to set the temperature for the passenger and driver’s sides of the car. Remember that the car does not heat up or cool down any more quickly even if you select a higher or lower temperature than you want in the passenger compartment.

Fan

Fan speed can be increased or decreased by turning the knob. If AUTO is selected, fan speed is controlled automatically. The previously set fan speed is disconnected.

NOTE

If the knob for the fan has been turned so far that the left LED above the knob lights up with an orange light, the fan and the air conditioning system are switched off.

Rear window and door mirror defrosters

Use this button to quickly remove misting and ice from the rear window and

door mirrors, see page 48

for further information about this function.

Defroster, windscreen and side windows

Used to quickly remove misting and ice from the windscreen and side windows. Air flows to the windows at high speed. The

Electronic climate control, ECC (option)

LED in the defroster button illuminates when this function is engaged.

When the function is selected, the following also takes place to provide maximum dehumidification of the air in the passenger compartment:

• the air conditioning (AC) is automatically engaged (can be switched off with the A/C button)

• recirculation is automatically disengaged.

When the defroster is switched off the climate control returns to the previous settings.

Air distribution

• Air to windows

• Air to head and body

• Air to legs and feet

Press AUTO to return to automatic air distribution.

AC – ON/OFF

ON : Air conditioning is on.

It is controlled by the system’s AUTO function. This way, incoming air is cooled and dehumidified.

OFF : Off.

When the defroster function is activated the air conditioning is automatically switched on

(can be switched off with the A/C button).

Heated front seats

Proceed as follows for heated front seat(s):

– Press once: High heat – both LEDs in the switch light up.

– Press twice: Low heat – one LED in the switch lights up.

– Press three times: Heating switched off – no LEDs in the switch light up.

An authorised Volvo workshop can adjust the temperature.

Recirculation

Recirculation can be used to shut out bad air, exhaust, etc. from the passenger compartment. The air in the passenger compartment is then recirculated, i.e. no air from outside the car is taken into the car when this function is activated.

If you allow the air in the car to recirculate, there is a risk of icing and misting, especially in winter.

The timer function (cars with Multifilter and air quality sensor have no timer function) minimises the risk for ice, misting and bad air.

Activate the function as follows:

– Press for more than 3 seconds.

The LED flashes for 5 seconds. The air recirculates in the car for 3–12 minutes depending on the outside temperature.

– The timer function is activated each time you press .

To switch off the timer function:

Press again for more than 3 seconds.

The LED illuminates for 5 seconds to confirm your selection.

Air quality system (option)

The air quality system consists of a multifilter and a sensor. The filter separates gases and particles, thereby reducing the volume of odours and pollutants entering the passenger compartment. When the sensor detects contaminated outside air, the air intake is closed and the air in the passenger compartment is recirculated.

When the air quality sensor is active, the green AUT LED illuminates in .

Operation

Press to activate the air quality sensor (normal setting).

Or:

Select one of the following three functions by pressing repeatedly.

• The AUT LED illuminates. The air quality sensor is now activated.

• No LED illuminates. Recirculation is not activated unless needed to cool in a warm climate.

• The LED MAN lights. Recirculation is now activated.

Keep the following in mind:

• Make it a rule to have the air quality sensor activated at all times.

• Recirculation is limited in cold weather to avoid misting.

• If misting occurs, you should deactivate the air quality sensor.

• If misting occurs, you can use the defroster functions for the windscreen, side win-

dows and rear window, see page 75.

Follow the Volvo service programme for the recommended replacement interval of the

Multifilter. If the car is used in environments where more contaminants are present, it may be necessary to change the Multifilter more often.

Air distribution

Air through front and rear panel vents.

Use:

When you want good cooling in a warm climate.

Air to windows.

Air is not recirculated in this position. Air conditioning is always engaged. There is a certain amount of airflow to the panel vents.

When you want to remove ice and misting. High fan speed is good for this.

Air to both floor and windows. There is a certain amount of airflow to the panel vents.

When you want comfortable conditions and good demisting in a cold climate. Not too low a fan speed.
