Charge air cooler (Intercooler)

Turbocharged engines employ a turbo-compressor to force air into the engine inlet manifold and a charge air cooler to cool the compressed inlet air. The resulting increase in air flow raises pressure in the intake manifold and increases engine power over that developed by the normally-aspirated engine. The charge air cooler (which resembles a radiator) is located between the turbo-compressor and inlet manifold. Designation: Volvo B 6294 S

Radio Data System (RDS, also referred to as RBDS) - HU-801 only The HU-801 radio in your car is equipped with an advanced system allowing information from broadcasters to be transmitted visually, as text, together with the audio signal. This information is then decoded by the radio and made available for several new and unique features. The RDS or Radio Data System operates in the FM band only, and the information transmitted is supplied exclusively by participating broadcasters. Volvo has no control over the accuracy of the data or information. Please refer to the following pages regarding specific descriptions and operation of these functions. Volvo was among the first to pioneer this technology throughout Europe and it is slowly making its way to North America. Coverage by local broadcasters may be limited at this time, but as the technology and benefits grow, you will find the radio in your car is equipped to take advantage of this system.

HomeLink® Universal Transceiver (option)

pg. 151 HomeLink® Universal Transceiver (option)

HomeLink® Universal Transceiver HomeLink® is an advanced system that can be programmed to learn the codes of three different remote controlled- devices (e.g., garage door openers, remote lighting, entry door lock). HomeLink®'s sun visor-mounted transceiver, powered by your car's electrical system, may then be used in place of your hand-held remote controls.

NOTE: As a security precaution, the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver is designed to not function if the car has been locked from the outside.

Programming the transceiver 1. The ignition switch must be turned to the "accessory" position (II) before programming the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver. 2. Begin by erasing all 3 factory default channels. Hold down the two outside buttons (buttons 1 and 3 in the illustration) on the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver for about 20 seconds, until HomeLink®'s indicator light begins to flash. Then release the buttons. 3. Hold your hand-held transmitter (garage door opener, for example) 2 to 5 in. (5 to 12 cm) away from the HomeLink® surface, keeping the indicator light in view. For placement questions, contact HomeLink® toll-free 1- 800-355-3515 (Internet: www.HomeLink.com). 4. Using two hands, push and hold both your hand-held transmitter's button and the transceiver button you wish to program. The indicator light will flash first slowly, then rapidly. Rapid flashing tells you the HomeLink® button has been successfully programmed. Release both buttons. 5. If you are programming a rolling code-equipped device (e.g., garage door opener or entry door lock), refer to "Programming rolling codes" on the next page to complete the programming process.

Repeat steps 3 and 4 to program the other two transceiver buttons.

If, after several attempts, you are unable to successfully train the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver to learn your hand-held transmitter's signal, contact HomeLink® toll-free 1-800-355-3515 (Internet: www.HomeLink.com).

pg. 152 HomeLink® Universal Transceiver (option)

WARNING!

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. Do not use the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver with any garage door opener that lacks safety "stop" and

"reverse" features as required by federal safety standards. (This includes any garage door opener model manufactured before April 1, 1982) A garage door opener that cannot "detect" an object, signalling the door to "stop" and "reverse" does not meet current federal safety standards. Using a garage door opener without these features increases the risk of serious injury or death. For more information on this matter, call toll-free 1-800-355- 3515 (Internet: www.HomeLink.com).

NOTE - Canadian residents: During programming, your hand-held transmitter may automatically stop transmitting. To successfully train HomeLink®, continue to hold the HomeLink® button. At the same time, repeatedly press and hold your hand-held transmitter's button at two-second intervals until HomeLink® has learned your transmitter's code. The HomeLink® indicator light will flash first slowly, and then rapidly to indicate that the button has been successfully programmed.

Determining if your garage door uses a rolling code

Determine, in one of the following ways, if your garage door uses a rolling code system and is manufactured after 1996:

Refer to the garage door opener owner's manual for verification. If your hand-held transmitter appears to program the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver but the programmed button

does not activate the garage door, your garage door opener may have a rolling code.

Press the programmed HomeLink® button. If the garage door opener has the rolling code feature, the HomeLink®

indicator light flashes rapidly and then glows steadily after approximately 2 seconds.

To train a rolling code garage door opener, follow these instructions after programming the desired transceiver button according to "Programming the transceiver." The help of a second person may make training easier.

1. Locate the training button on the garage door opener motor head unit. The location and color of the training button may vary. If you encounter difficulty, refer to the garage door opener owner's manual or call toll-free 1-800-355-3515
(Internet: www.HomeLink.com).

2. Press the "training" button on the garage door opener motor head unit until the "training" light comes on.

3. Press and release the programmed HomeLink® button. Press and release the programmed HomeLink® button a second time to complete the training process.

Some garage door openers may require you to do this procedure a third time to complete the training.

The programmed button on your HomeLink® Universal Transceiver should now operate your garage door opener. The original hand-held transmitter can also be used, as desired, to operate the garage door.

The remaining two HomeLink® buttons can be programmed in the same way. In the event of any problems in

programming the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver, call toll-free 1-800-355-3515 (Internet: www.HomeLink.com).

Operating the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver Once programmed, the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver can be used in place of hand-held transmitters.

To operate, the key must be turned to the "accessory" position (II) or the engine must be running. Press the programmed HomeLink® button to activate the garage door, driveway gate, security lighting, home security system, etc.

Your original hand-held transmitters may, of course, be used at any time.

pg. 153 HomeLink® Universal Transceiver (option)

Erasing programmed buttons Individual buttons cannot be erased. To erase all three programmed buttons: 1. Turn the ignition key to the "accessory" position (II). 2. Hold down the two outside buttons on the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver for about 20 seconds, until HomeLink®'s indicator light begins to flash. 3. Release both buttons.

The HomeLink® buttons can be reprogrammed using the procedures described on the previous pages.

Reprogramming a single HomeLink® button 1. Press and hold the desired HomeLink® button. Do not release the button until step 3 has been completed. 2. When the indicator light begins to flash slowly (after approximately 20 seconds), position the hand-held transmitter 2 to 5 in. (5 to 12 cm) away from the HomeLink® surface. 3. Press and hold the hand-held transmitter button. The HomeLink® indicator light will flash first slowly, then rapidly. When the indicator light flashes rapidly, release both buttons.

The previously programmed device has now been erased and the new device can be activated by pressing the HomeLink® button that has just been programmed. This procedure will not affect any other programmed HomeLink® buttons.

NOTE:

Retain the original transmitter(s) for future programming procedures (i.e., if you purchase a new car). For your own security, erase all programmed buttons on the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver when you sell your

car.

Metallic sun protection films should not be used on any windows in a car equipped with HomeLink® Universal

Transceiver. This could interfere with the transceiver's function.

Accessory Installation - Important Warning

We strongly recommend that Volvo owners install only genuine, Volvo-approved accessories, and that accessory

installations be performed only by the factory-trained technicians at your authorized Volvo retailer.

Genuine Volvo accessories are tested to ensure compatibility with the performance, safety, and emission systems in your car. Additionally, your authorized Volvo retailer knows where accessories may and may not be safely installed in your Volvo. In all cases, please consult your authorized Volvo retailer before installing any accessory in or on your car.

Accessories that have not been approved by Volvo may or may not be specifically tested for compatibility with your

car. Additionally, an inexperienced installer may not be familiar with some of your car's systems.

Any of your car'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 car.

Damage caused by unapproved or improperly installed accessories may not be covered by your new car warranty.

See your Warranty and Service Records Information booklet for more warranty information. Volvo assumes no responsibility for death, injury, or expenses that may result from the installation of non-genuine accessories.

Driver Distraction

Driver distraction results from driver activities that are not directly related to controlling the car 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:

parked.

Never use these devices or any feature of your vehicle in a way that distracts you from the task of driving safely.

In addition to this general warning, we offer the following guidance regarding specific newer features that may be

Distraction can lead to a serious accident.

found in your vehicles:

driver while the vehicle is moving.

If your car is equipped with a navigation system, set and make changes to your travel itinerary only with the vehicle

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.

The following should be checked regularly: *

1 Washer fluid reservoir should be filled with water and solvent (wintertime: windshield washer anti-freeze). See page 118.

2 Power steering - When cold, the level must not be above the COLD mark and when hot it must not be above the HOT mark. Top up if the level drops to the ADD mark with ATF fluid. See page 122.

3 Coolant level should be between the expansion tank marks. Mixture: 50% anti-freeze and 50% water. See page 116.

4 Engine oil level should be between the dipstick marks. The distance between the marks represents approx. 1.6 US qts (1.5 liters). See page 120.

5 Brake fluid - check, without removing the cap, that the level is above the MIN mark. Use brake fluid DOT 4+. See page 122.

* Engine oil should be checked each time the car is refuelled.

Octane rating, see page 70.
