Battery
• To help keep the battery in good condition,
the vehicle should be driven for at least 15
minutes a week or connected to a charger
with an automatic charging function.
• If the battery is fully discharged a number of times, this may shorten its service life. Keeping the battery fully charged helps prolong its service life.
• The service life of a battery is affected by factors such as driving conditions and cli- mate. Extreme cold may also further decrease the battery’s starting capacity. • Because the battery’s starting capacity
decreases with time, it may be necessary to recharge it if the vehicle is not driven for an extended period of time or if the vehicle is usually only driven short distances.
•
WARNING
PROPOSITION 65 WARNING! Battery posts, terminals, and related acces- sories contain lead and lead compounds, chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer and reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.

Battery maintenance Driving habits and conditions, climate, the number of starts, etc., all affect the service life and function of the battery. In order for your battery to perform satisfactorily, keep the fol- lowing in mind: Check the fluid level in each cell in the battery every 24 months or every 15,0001 miles (24,000 km), whichever is sooner. • Use a screw driver to open the caps or
cover and a flashlight to inspect the level. • If necessary, add distilled water. The level
should never be above the indicator.
• The fluid level should be checked if the
battery has been recharged.
• After inspection, be sure the cap over each
battery cell or the cover is securely in place.
• Check that the battery cables are correctly
connected and properly tightened.
• Never disconnect the battery when the
engine is running, or when the key is in the ignition. This could damage the vehicle's electrical system.
• The battery should be disconnected from the vehicle when a battery charger is used directly on the battery.

Fuses
Replacing fuses There are relay/fuse boxes located in the engine compartment and the passenger com- partment. If an electrical component fails to function, this may be due to a blown fuse. The easiest way to see if a fuse is blown is to remove it. To do so: 1. Pull the fuse straight out. If a fuse is difficult to remove, special fuse removal tools are located on the inside of the fuse box cov- ers.
2. From the side, examine the curved metal
3.
wire in the fuse to see if it is intact. If the wire is broken, insert a new fuse of the same color and amperage (written on the fuse).
If fuses burn out repeatedly, have the electrical system inspected by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician.
WARNING
Never use metal objects or fuses with higher amperage than those stated on the follow- ing pages. Doing so could seriously damage or overload the vehicle's electrical system.
236
Fuse box in the engine compartment
The fuse box in the engine compartment has positions for 36 fuses. • Fuses 1–18 are relays/circuit breakers and should only be removed or replaced by an authorized Volvo service technician.
• Fuses 19–36 may be changed at any time
when necessary.
Several extra fuses and a fuse removal tool to assist in removing/replacing fuses can be found on the underside of the fuse box cover in the engine compartment.

If the device is being charged through a 12-volt socket while it is connected to the AUX or port, sound quality may be impaired. A sound source must be chosen, depending on the device that has been connected: 1. Use MODE to select iPod or USB. The text
Connect device will be displayed.
2. Connect the device to the connector in the center console storage compartment (see the illustration).
The text LOADING will be displayed while the system loads the files (folder structure) on the device. This may take a short time. When information about the files (the folder structure) on the device has been loaded, the resulting list includes information on the artist, genre and song title. To navigate in the folder structure, press ENTER and scroll up and down the folders using the arrow buttons (on the audio system control panel or on the steering wheel keypad). Press the right arrow button to select a folder. Press the left arrow button to go up a level in the folder structure. Press ENTER to go down a level in the folder structure.
Tracks can be selected in two ways:
–
Turn the Tuning knob (no. 4 in the illustra- tion on page 252) clockwise or counter- clockwise.
– Use the right or left arrow keys on the nav- igation control (no. 5 in the illustration on page 252) to select the desired track. The arrow keys on the steering wheel keypad can also be used in the same way.
NOTE
• The system supports a number of
iPod(cid:159) models produced in 2005 or later.
• In order to help avoid damage to the USB socket, it will be switched off if there is a short circuit or if the con- nected device uses too much current (which can happen if the device does not comply with the USB standard). The USB socket will reactivate the next time the ignition is switched on if the problem no longer exists. If the problem persists, contact a trained and authorized Volvo service technician.
USB flash drive To simplify the use of a USB flash drive, it is advisable to only store music files on the drive. It will take considerably longer for the system
to index the files on the drive if it contains any- thing other than compatible music files.
NOTE
• The system supports removable media
that uses the USB 2.0 standard and the
FAT32 file system. It can index up to
1,000 folders and a maximum of 254
sub-folders/files for each folder. How-
ever, the highest folder level can sup-
port up to 1,000 sub-folders/files.
• When using a longer type of USB
device, connecting it with a USB
adapter cable will help reduce mechan-
ical wear on the USB socket and on the
device.
MP3 player Many MP3 players have a file indexing system that is not supported by the vehicle's audio system. In order to use an MP3 player, the sys- tem must be set to USB Removable device/ Mass Storage Device.
iPod(cid:159) An iPod(cid:159) receives current and its battery is charged through the connecting cord. How- ever, if the iPod's battery is completely drained, it should be recharged before the iPod(cid:159) is connected to the audio system.
NOTE
When an iPod(cid:159) is used as a sound source, the vehicle's audio system has a menu structure similar to the one in the iPod(cid:159). See the iPod's manual for detailed information.
For further information, refer to the accessory manual USB/iPod(cid:159) Music Interface. Adjusting volume for an external device The volume of an external device may be dif- ferent from the volume of the internal sound sources such as the CD player or the radio. It the external device's volume is too high, the quality of the sound may be impaired. To help prevent this, adjust the external device's input volume as follows: 1. While playing the radio or a CD, lower the
audio volume to about one-quarter.
2. Switch to AUX mode on the audio system
by pressing the MODE button.
3. Connect the headphone output from your music player to the AUX input using a cable with a stereo 3.5 mm miniplug at both ends.
4. Set your music player's headphone vol- ume to three-quarters using the player's volume controls.

6. Turn the volume knob to raise or lower the AUX input volume until you hear music at a comfortable level. If there is distortion, lower your music play- er's headphone volume until the distortion goes away.
7.
8. Finally, exit the menu and adjust the audio
volume to a comfortable level.
Bluetooth(cid:159) streaming audio (BT)
The vehicle's audio system is equipped with
Bluetooth(cid:159), which makes it possible to play
streaming audio files from a Bluetooth(cid:159)con-
nected cell phone. Navigation and control of
the phone can be done through the vehicle's
center console control panel or the steering
wheel keypad. On certain cell phones, it is also
possible to change tracks from the phone
itself.
In order to listen streaming audio, BT must be
selected as a sound source (see page 247) and
a Bluetooth(cid:159) cell phone must be connected
(paired) with the audio system. See page 264
for more information.

Optimal sound reproduction The audio system is calibrated for optimal sound reproduction through the use of digital signal processing. This calibration takes into account the speakers, amplifier, cabin acous- tics, the seating position of the listener, etc., for each combination of vehicle and audio system. There is also dynamic calibration that takes into account the setting of the volume control, radio reception, and the vehicle's speed. The sound settings described in this manual, such as BASS, TREBLE, and Equalizer front…/ Equalizer rear… are only intended to enable the user to adapt sound reproduction to his/her personal preferences. 1. Press SOUND (5). Press this button
repeatedly until you come to the setting that you wish to change.
2. Turn the TUNING dial (4) to make the
desired setting.
The following settings can be made: BASS–set the bass level TREBLE–set the treble level BALANCE–set the left/right sound balance FADER–set the front/rear sound balance CENTER–make settings for the center speaker
SURROUND–make settings for surround sound
Surround sound
Surround sound settings are used to balance sound levels throughout the vehicle. Surround settings for the var- ious sound sources are made sepa-
rately.
NOTE
• Dolby Surround Pro Logic II is only
available on the Premium Sound sys- tem.
• When listening to FM radio stations, Dolby Surround Pro Logic II functions best in areas with strong reception. If reception is weak, selecting 2 or 3- channel stereo may provide better sound quality.

Introduction
Display when the radio is receiving an HD Radio broadcast HD radio is a brand name registered by the Ibiquity digital corporation2. They are the developer of a broadcasting technology called IBOC or In Band On Channel, which refers to the method of transmitting a digital radio broadcast signal centered on the same fre- quency as the AM or FM station's present fre- quency.
The IBOC system is referred to as a "hybrid" since it is both analogue and digital. During hybrid operation, receivers still continue to receive the analogue (non-digital) signal. HD radio receivers incorporate both modes of reception, where the receiver will automatically switch to the analogue signal if the digital signal cannot be decoded or is lost by the receiver. When you have tuned to an HD Radio station, the symbol will appear in the audio sys- tem display. More information about HD radio and IBOC can be found on Ibiquity's website, www.hdradio.com and www.ibiquity.com.
Benefits of digital broadcasting • Better sound (FM sounds near CD quality
and AM as analogue FM).
• Some FM frequencies offer a greater num- ber of listening choices through “multicast- ing” (consisting of a frequency's main channel and any sub-channels that may also be available on that particular fre- quency. See also the section "Sub-chan- nels" below).
• When receiving a digital signal there is no
multipath disturbance or hisses/pops/ crackling due to outside influences.
How HD broadcasting works HD Radio works similarly to conventional radio and broadcasts of this type are available in many areas of the United States. However, there are a few key differences: • Instead of transmitting one analogue sig- nal, stations send out a bundled signal – both analogue and digital.
• An HD radio receiver can receive both dig- ital and analogue broadcasts. Depending on the terrain and location of the vehicle (which will influence the signal strength), the receiver will determine which signal to receive.
Limitations • Main channel vs. sub-channels (FM
only): The main channel is the only channel that can receive in hybrid mode (both dig- ital and analogue). If a frequency has sub- channels, they are broadcast in digital mode only. The main FM channel will be displayed as, for example, 93.9 WNYC (Volvo uses the symbol > to indicate there are sub-channels available) The sub-FM

channels will be displayed as 93.9 – 2
WNYC, 93.9 - 3 WNYC, etc.
• Reception coverage area: Due to current
IBOC transmitter power limitations, the reception coverage area in digital mode is somewhat more limited than the station's analogue coverage area. Please be aware that as with any radio broadcast technol- ogy, terrain, time of day, foliage level and building location can have positive or neg- ative effects on radio reception.
• Analogue to digital/digital to analogue blending: Analogue to digital blending will occur as the signal strength reaches a pre- set threshold in the receiver. This will be noticeable in fringe areas (areas with weak reception) and is normal.
NOTE
There may be a noticeable difference in sound quality when a change from analogue to digital or digital to analogue occurs, such as: • Volume increase or decrease • Equalizer settings, i.e., Bass/ Midrange/
Treble cut or boost
• Time alignment (Digital program mate- rial in extreme cases can be as much as 8 seconds behind the analogue). This will noticeable as a "stuttering" effect. The above items are dependant on the broadcaster's equipment settings and do not indicate a fault in the vehicle's radio receiver or antenna systems.
Switching HD on or off The factory setting for HD radio is on. However, when driving through areas with weak HD sig- nals (fringe areas), you may experience that the radio repeatedly switches between analogue/ digital and digital/analogue reception. If this happens, it may be desirable to switch HD off. To do so: 1. Be sure the audio system is switched on
and is in AM or FM mode.
2. Press MENU in the center console control
panel.

3. Press ENTER to turn HD off (the X will dis- appear from the box on the display screen). This will disable the radio's capability to receive digital broadcasts but it will continue to func- tion as a conventional (analogue) AM/FM receiver. Please note that when HD is switched off, it will not be possible to tune to sub-chan- nels (see the following section for a more detailed explanation of sub-channels). Repeat steps 2 and 3 above to reactivate HD (an X will appear in the box on the display screen).

In many cases, a main HD Radio station (FM wavebands only) will also have sub-channels offering additional types of programming or music. In such cases, a number will be displayed to the right of the frequency number indicating that the currently tuned frequency has at least one sub-channel. The "2" in the illustration indi- cates that you are currently listening to the first sub-channel on frequency 93.9. Selecting sub-channels To listen to a station's sub-channel(s), press the right arrow key on the center console or on the steering wheel keypad. To go back to the main channel, press the left arrow key. To go to subchannel 2 (if available), press the right arrow key. If you are currently tuned to a frequency's main channel, pressing the left arrow key will tune to the next lower radio frequency.

NOTE
• When the radio has gone into HD mode, it may take several seconds before the ">" symbol (if the current frequency has any sub-channels) is displayed to the right of the frequency. Pressing the arrow keys before the number is dis- played will cause the radio to tune to the next available radio station, not to the current station's sub-channels.
• When you are no longer in broadcasting range of the currently tuned sub-chan- nel, No HD reception will be dis- played. The radio will then be muted and it will be necessary to tune to or search for a new radio station.
Sub-channels can also be stored as presets, see page 252 for information on storing sta- tions. If you press a sub-channel's preset button, it may take up to 6 seconds before the channel becomes audible. If you press this button while you are out of digital range of the transmitter, No HD reception will be displayed.
