D: Automatic gear positions. M (+/–): Manual gear positions. Powershift is a six-stage automatic gearbox that has double mechanical clutch discs in contrast to a conventional automatic gearbox. A conventional automatic gearbox has a hydraulic torque converter that transfers power from the engine to the gearbox. Powershift transmission operates in the same way and has similar controls and functions as the Geartronic automatic transmission, descri- bed in the previous section.

several seconds while the foot is moved from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal before setting off or reversing uphill. The temporary braking effect releases after several seconds or when the driver acceler- ates.


To bear in mind The transmission's double clutch has overload protection that is activated if it becomes too hot, e.g. if the car is held stationary with the accelerator pedal on an uphill gradient for a long time. Overheated transmission causes the car to shake and vibrate, and the warning symbol illu- minates and the information display shows a message. The transmission can also overheat during slow driving in queues (10 km/h or slower) on an uphill gradient, or with a trailer hitched. The transmission cools down when the car is stationary, with foot brake depressed and the engine running at idling speed. Overheating during slow driving in queues can be avoided by driving in stages: Stop the car and wait with your foot on the brake pedal until there is a moderate distance to the traffic ahead, drive forward a short distance, and then

Environmental care is one of Volvo Car Corpo- ration's core values and it influences all of our operations. This target-orientation has resulted in the DRIVe vehicle series whose concept consists of an interaction between several sep- arate energy-saving functions, all with the common purpose of reducing fuel consump- tion, which in turn contributes to reduced exhaust emissions. Both variants Eco DRIVe and Eco Start/Stop DRIVe contain various energy- saving functions depending on which gearbox the car is equipped with:


The MY CAR menu system in the car includes an integrated owner's manual which explains the DRIVe concept in detail along with its pos- sible settings and options - see page 143.


122


* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.


Eco DRIVe


General information on Eco Use of the Eco DRIVe function activates a pro- gram that helps the driver to drive the car eco- nomically with minimum fuel consumption and emissions. In practice this means that engine braking is reduced, meaning that the car's kinetic energy can be used for rolling long distances with the engine speed at idling speed. Another environmentally positive Eco DRIVe effect is that the program interprets accelera- tion slightly more slowly than the driver does - this in order to achieve maximum fuel savings during acceleration.


Function and operation


Eco DRIVe On/Off.


Illuminates briefly on activation and for text messages. (Only used by the Eco Start/Stop DRIVe function).


Driving with cruise control The Eco DRIVe function with activated cruise control makes driving slightly more flexible - the set speed is not followed exactly in the event of an increased load, but the function allows a barely perceptible delay, e.g. at the beginning of a steep hill. The reason is that Eco DRIVe implements a slower acceleration, e.g. for compensation due to increased load, than the normal cruise con- trol.


03 Your driving environment


Eco DRIVe or Eco Start/Stop DRIVe*


The cruise control's environmentally positive flexibility is within the range of +0/-2 km/h.


Deactivating the Eco DRIVe function The current setting is stored when the engine is switched off - if Eco DRIVe is e.g. activated at engine shutdown, the function will remain activated the next time the engine is started.


In certain situations it is advantageous to use engine braking, e.g. on steep down- hill slopes, and it may then be appropriate to temporarily disengage the Eco DRIVe function - this is carried out by


pressing this button (1). The disengaged function is confirmed with a display text and with the button's light going out.

Function and operation


03


The engine is switched off - it becomes quieter and cleaner.... Certain engines can be fitted with a Eco Start/Stop DRIVe function which is acti- vated during e.g. stationary traffic or waiting at traffic lights. The engine's automatic restart sequence runs so smoothly that it is hardly noticeable that the engine has actually been switched off. The experience is that the engine has been running the whole time but with an extremely quiet and low idling speed. The Eco Start/Stop DRIVe function gives the driver the opportunity for a more active envi- ronmentally conscious way of driving the car by means of being able to disengage gear and


Eco Start/Stop DRIVe On/Off.


Illuminates briefly on activation and for text messages. The engine is auto-stopped.


The Eco Start/Stop DRIVe function is activated automatically when the engine is started with the key. The driver is made aware of the function by the instrument panel symbol (2) illuminating briefly and the green lamp (1) for the On/Off button illuminat- ing.


124


* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.


NOTE


After starting with the key and each auto- stop the car must first reach 5 km/h before the automatic Start/Stop function is re-acti- vated - following which certain conditions must also be fulfilled, refer to these under the heading "The engine does not auto- stop".


All of the car's normal systems such as lighting, radio, etc. work as normal even with an auto- stopped engine, except that some equipment may have its function temporarily reduced, e.g. the climate control system's fan speed or extremely high volume on the audio system.


Auto-stopping the engine In order that the engine will auto-stop the car must be stationary: • Set the gear lever in neutral position and


release the clutch pedal - the engine is switched off.


As verification and reminder that the engine is auto-stop- ped this symbol in the display (3) illuminates.


Auto-starting the engine With the gear lever in neutral position:


• Depress the clutch pedal - the engine


starts.


or • Depress the accelerator pedal - the engine


starts.


If the car is on a downhill slope: • Release the foot brake and let the car roll


faster than normal walking pace - the engine starts.


After which it is only necessary to engage a gear and continue the journey.


Gear indicator


An essential detail in connection with environ- mental driving is to drive in the right gear and change gear in time.


03 Your driving environment


Eco DRIVe or Eco Start/Stop DRIVe*


The driver is assisted by an indicator which notifies the driver when it is most advanta- geous to engage the next higher or lower gear - GSI (Gear Shift Indicator). Indication is made with an up or down arrow in the combined instrument panel's lower dis- play.


Deactivating the Eco Start/Stop DRIVe function


In certain situations, it may advisable to temporarily dis- engage the automatic Start/Stop function - this is carried out with a push of this button (1).


Disengaged Start/Stop func- tion is indicated by the infor- mation display's symbol (2) going out and the message Eco DRIVe Off being dis- played for about 5 seconds - while the button's lamp goes


out at the same time. The Start/Stop function is disengaged until it is reactivated with the button or until the next time the engine is started with the key.


03


Limitations


The engine does not auto-stop Even if the Eco Start/Stop DRIVe function is activated, the engine does not auto-stop if: • the driver has opened the seatbelt's


buckle.


• the car has not stopped - however, the


Start/Stop function does accept slow roll- ing, the equivalent to normal walking pace.


• the capacity of the battery is below the


minimum permissible level.


• the engine does not have normal operating


temperature.


• outside temperature is below 0 or above


30 °C.


• the environment in the passenger com- partment differs from the preset values - indicated by the ventilation fan running at a high speed.


• the car has been reversed and reverse gear


is disengaged.


• battery temperature is below 0 °C or above


55 °C.


The engine auto-starts without driver intervention An auto-stopped engine may restart in some cases without the driver having decided that the journey should continue.

In the following cases the engine auto-starts even if the driver has not depressed the clutch pedal in order to engage a gear: • Misting forms on the windows. • Outside temperature is below 0 or above


30 °C.


• There is a temporarily high current take-off or battery capacity has dropped to the low- est permissible level.


• The car is rolling faster than the equivalent


normal walking pace.


• Repeated pumping of the brake pedal.


WARNING


Do not open the bonnet when the engine has auto-stopped - the engine may sud- denly auto-start. In order to avoid auto-star- ting with raised bonnet: • First engage a gear and apply the park- ing brake or take the remote control key from the ignition switch.


The engine does not auto-start In the following cases the engine does not auto-start after having auto-stopped:


• The driver's seatbelt buckle has been


opened - a display text prompts the driver to start the engine normally.


• A gear is engaged without declutching - a display text prompts the driver to set the gear lever in neutral position in order to enable auto-start.


Involuntary engine stop In the event that a start-up fails and the engine stops, proceed as follows: 1. Depress the clutch pedal again - the engine starts automatically after the gear lever has been set in neutral position. Prior to this the information display showed the text Set the gear lever in neutral.

03 Your driving environment


All-wheel drive – AWD*


All Wheel Drive is always available


03


All Wheel Drive means that the car is driving all four wheels at the same time. The power is automatically distributed between the front and rear wheels. An elec- tronically controlled clutch system distributes the power to the wheels that have the best grip on the current road surface. This provides the best traction and prevents wheel spin. Under normal driving conditions, the majority of power is transmitted to the front wheels. All Wheel Drive improves driving safety in rain, snow and icy conditions.


128


* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.


03 Your driving environment


General The car is equipped with two brake circuits. If one brake circuit is damaged then this will mean that the brakes engage at a deeper level and harder pressure on the pedal is needed to produce the normal braking effect. The driver's brake pedal pressure is assisted by a brake servo.


WARNING


The brake servo only works when the engine is running.


If the brake is used when the engine is switched off then the pedal will feel stiff and more force must be used to brake the car. In very hilly terrain or when driving with a heavy load the brakes can be relieved by using engine braking. Engine braking is most efficiently used if the same gear is used downhill as up. For more general information on heavy loads on the car, see page 350.


Anti-lock braking system The car is equipped with ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) which prevents the wheels from locking during braking. This means the ability to steer is maintained and it is easier to swerve to avoid a hazard for example. Vibration


may be felt in the brake pedal when this is engaged and this is normal. A short test of the ABS system is made auto- matically after the engine has been started when the driver releases the brake pedal. A further automatic test of the ABS system may be made when the car reaches 10 km/h. The test may be experienced as pulses in the brake pedal.


Emergency brake lights and automatic hazard warning flashers Emergency brake lights are activated to alert vehicles behind about sudden braking. The function means that the brake light flashes instead of - as in normal braking - shining with a constant glow. Emergency brake lights are activated at speeds above 50 km/h if the ABS system is working and/or in the event of sudden braking. After the car's speed has been slowed below 10 km/h the brake light returns from flashing to the normal constant glow - while at the same time the hazard warning flashers are activated, and they flash until the driver changes engine speed with the accelerator pedal or they are deactivated with their button, see page 92.


Foot brake


Cleaning the brake discs Coatings of dirt and water on the brake discs may result in delayed brake function. This delay is minimised by cleaning the brake linings. Manual cleaning is advisable with wet road sur- faces, prior to long-stay parking and after the car has been washed. Carry this out by braking gently during a short period while en route.


Emergency Brake Assistance Emergency Brake Assistance EBA (Emergency Brake Assist) helps to increase brake force and so reduce braking distance. EBA detects the driver's braking style and increases brake force as necessary. The brake force can be rein- forced up to the level when the ABS system is engaged. The EBA function is interrupted when the pressure on the brake pedal is reduced.


NOTE


When EBA is activated the brake pedal low- ers slightly more than usual, depress (hold) the brake pedal as long as necessary. If the brake pedal is released then all braking ceases.

Parking brake, electric


Applying the parking brake


Function A faint electric motor noise can be heard when the parking brake is being applied. The noise can also be heard during the automatic func- tion checking of the parking brake. If the car is stationary when the parking brake is applied then it only acts on the rear wheels. If it is applied when the car is moving then the normal foot brake is used, i.e. the brake acts on all four wheels. Brake function changes over to the rear wheels when the car is almost sta- tionary.


Low battery voltage If the battery voltage is too low then the parking brake can neither be released nor applied. Connect a donor battery if the battery voltage is too low, see page 115.


Parking brake control. 1. Press the foot brake pedal down firmly. 2. Press the control. 3. Release the foot brake pedal and make


sure that the car is at a standstill position. • When parking the vehicle, always engage 1st gear (for manual gearbox) or put the gear selector in position P (for automatic gearbox).


The symbol in the combined instru- ment panel flashes until the parking


brake is fully applied. When the symbol illumi- nates the parking brake is applied. In an emergency the parking brake can be applied when the vehicle is moving by depress- ing the control. When the control is released or


Parking brake


the accelerator pedal is depressed the braking is interrupted.


NOTE


In the event of emergency braking at speeds above 10 km/h a signal sounds during the braking procedure.


03


Parking on a hill If the car is parked facing uphill; turn the wheels away from the kerb. If the car is parked facing downhill, turn the wheels towards the kerb.


WARNING


Get into the habit of always applying the parking brake when parking on a slope - leaving the car in gear, or in P if it has auto- matic transmission, is not sufficient to hold the car in all situation.

General


03


HomeLink(cid:159) is a programmable remote control which can control up to three different devices (e.g. garage door, alarm system, outdoor light- ing and indoor lighting etc.) and in doing so replace their remote controls. HomeLink(cid:159) is supplied built into the left-hand sun visor. The HomeLink(cid:159) panel consists of three pro- grammable buttons and one indicator lamp.


NOTE


WARNING


HomeLink(cid:159) is designed not to work if the car is locked from the outside. Save the original remote controls for future programming (e.g. when switching to another car). Delete the button programming when the car is to be sold. Metallic sun visors should not be used in cars fitted with HomeLink(cid:159). This may have an adverse effect on its function.


Operation When HomeLink(cid:159) is fully programmed it can be used in place of the separate original remote controls. Depress the programmed button to activate the garage door, alarm system etc. The indi- cator lamp illuminates for the time that the but- ton is kept depressed.

Climate control


General


Climate control The car is equipped with electronic climate control. The climate control system cools or heats as well as dehumidifies the air in the pas- senger compartment.


NOTE


04


The air conditioning system (AC) can be switched off, but to ensure the best possible climate comfort in the passenger compart- ment and to prevent the windows from mist- ing, it should always be on.


Actual temperature The temperature you select corresponds to the physical experience with reference to factors such as air speed, humidity and solar radiation etc. in and around the car. The system includes a sun sensor1 which detects on which side the sun is shining into the passenger compartment. This means that the temperature can differ between the right and left-hand air vents despite the controls being set for the same temperature on both sides.


Sensor location • The sun sensor1 is located on the top side


of the dashboard.


• The temperature sensor for the passenger compartment is located below the climate control panel.


• The outside temperature sensor is located


on the door mirror.


• The humidity sensor* is located by the inte-


rior rearview mirror.


NOTE


Do not cover or block the sensors with clothing or other objects.


Side windows and sunroof* To ensure that the air conditioning works opti- mally, the side windows, and sunroof* if speci- fied, should be closed.


Misting windows Remove misting on the insides of the windows by primarily using the defroster function. To reduce the risk of misting, keep the win- dows clean and use window cleaner.


Temporary shut-off of the air conditioning When the engine requires full power, e.g. for full acceleration or driving uphill with a trailer, the air conditioning can be temporarily switched off. There may then be a temporary increase in temperature in the passenger compartment.


Condensation In warm weather, condensation from the air conditioning may drip under the car. This is normal.


Ice and snow Remove ice and snow from the climate control system air intake (the grille between the bonnet and the windscreen).


Fault tracing and repair Engage a workshop that has authorisation for the fault tracing and repair of the climate con- trol system. Volvo recommends that you con- tact an authorised Volvo workshop.


Refrigerant The air conditioning system contains a refrig- erant. This refrigerant contains no chlorine, which means that it is harmless to the ozone layer. Engage a workshop that has authorisa- tion for filling/changing refrigerant to carry out


1 Only applies to ECC.

the work. Volvo recommends that you contact an authorised Volvo workshop.


Total airing function The function opens/closes all side windows simultaneously and can be used for example to quickly air the car during hot weather, see page 62.


Passenger compartment filter All air entering the car's passenger compart- ment is cleaned with a filter. This must be replaced at regular intervals. Follow the Volvo Service Programme for the recommended replacement intervals. If the car is used in a severely contaminated environment, it may be necessary to replace the filter more often.


NOTE


There are different types of passenger com- partment filter. Make sure that the correct filter is fitted.


Clean Zone Interior Package (CZIP)* This option keeps the passenger compartment clear of allergy and asthma inducing sub- stances. For more information on CZIP, see the brochure included with the purchase of the car. The following is included: • An enhanced fan function that means that the fan starts when the car is opened with


the remote control key. The fan fills the passenger compartment with fresh air. The function starts when required and is dis- engaged automatically after a time or when one of the passenger compartment doors is opened. The amount of time the fan runs is reduced gradually due to reduced need up until the car is 4 years old.


• The air quality system IAQS is a fully auto- matic system that cleans the air in the pas- senger compartment from contaminants such as particles, hydrocarbons, nitrous oxides and ground-level ozone.


NOTE


To keep the CZIP standard in cars with CZIP the IAQS filter must be changed after 15 000 km or once per year depending on whichever occurs first. However, up to 75 000 km over 5 years. In cars without CZIP and where the customer does not want to keep the CZIP standard the IAQS filter must be changed at a regular service.


Use of tested materials in the interior equipment. The materials have been developed in order to minimise the quantity of dust in the passenger compartment and they contribute to making the passenger compartment easier to keep clean. The carpets in both the passenger com- partment and the cargo area are removable


Climate control


and easy to remove and clean. Use cleaning agents and car care products recommended by Volvo, see page 338.


Menu settings It is possible to activate/deactivate or change the default settings for four of climate control system's functions via the centre console. For general information about menu navigation, see page 142: • Fan speed in automatic mode*, see


page 154.


• Recirculation timer for passenger com-


partment air, see page 155.


• Automatic rear window defrosting, see


page 104.


• Air quality system IAQS*, see page 155
The climate control system's functions can be reset to the default settings via the menu sys- tem in MY CAR and this is carried out under: Settings climate settings.
