INTRODUCTION


Owner information Your car is equipped with a display screen* where you can find information on how your car works. This owner's manual is a supple- ment to the information and contains impor- tant text, the latest updates, as well as instructions that can be useful when you, for practical reasons, cannot read the on-screen information. Changing the display language may mean that some information does not correspond to national or local laws and regulations.


IMPORTANT


The driver is always responsible that the vehicle is driven safely in traffic and that applicable laws and regulations are fol- lowed. It is also important that the car is maintained and handled in accordance with Volvo's recommendations in the owner's information. If there should be a difference between the information on the screen and in the prin- ted manual then it is always the printed information that applies.


1 Applies to certain car models.


Reading the owner's manual A good way of getting to know your new car is to read the owner's manual, ideally before your first journey. This will give you the oppor- tunity to familiarise yourself with new func- tions, to see how best to handle the car in dif- ferent situations, and to make the best use of all the car's features. Please pay attention to the safety instructions contained in the man- ual.


The specifications, design features and illus- trations in this owner's manual are not bind- ing. We reserve the right to make modifica- tions without prior notice. © Volvo Car Corporation


Digital owner's manual in the car1
When the printed manual refers to the digital owner's manual it means the one shown on the screen in the car. Open the digital owner's manual - press the MY CAR button in the centre console, press OK/MENU and select Owner's manual. There are four options for finding information in the owner's manual: • Search - Search function for finding an


article.


• Categories - All articles sorted into cate-


gories.


01 Introduction


• Favourites - Quick access to favourite-


bookmarked articles.


• Quick Guide - A selection of articles for


common functions.

Owner's Manual in mobile devices


NOTE


The owner's manual is available for down- load as a mobile application (applies for certain car models and mobile devices), see www.volvocars.com. The mobile application also includes video and searchable content and easy naviga- tion between different sections.

01 Introduction || Options/accessories All types of option/accessory are marked with an asterisk*. In addition to standard equipment, the owner's manual also describes options (fac- tory fitted equipment) and certain accessories (retrofitted extra equipment). The equipment described in the owner's manual is not available in all cars - they have different equipment depending on adapta- tions for the needs of different markets and national or local laws and regulations. In the event of uncertainty over what is stand- ard or an option/accessory, contact a Volvo dealer.


Special texts


WARNING


Warning texts appear if there is a risk of injury.


IMPORTANT


"Important" texts appear if there is a risk of damage.


NOTE


NOTE texts give advice or tips that facili- tate the use of e.g. features and functions.


Footnote There is footnote information in the owner's manual that is located at the bottom of the page. This information is an addition to the text that it refers to via a number. If the foot- note refers to text in a table then letters are used instead of numbers for referral.


Message texts There are displays in the car that show text messages. These text messages are high- lighted in the owner's manual by means of the text being slightly larger and printed in grey. Examples of this are in menu texts and message texts on the information display (e.g. Audio settings).


Decals The car contains different types of decal which are designed to convey important information in a simple and clear manner. The decals in the car have the following descend- ing degree of importance for the warning/ information.


Warning for personal injury


G031590


Black ISO symbols on yellow warning field, white text/image on black message field. Used to indicate the presence of danger which, if the warning is ignored, may result in serious personal injury or fatality.


14


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


Risk of property damage


Information


White ISO symbols and white text/image on black or blue warning field and message field. Used to indicate the presence of danger which, if the warning is ignored, may result in damage to property.


White ISO symbols and white text/image on black message field.


NOTE


It is not intended that the decals illustrated in the owner's manual should be exact replicas of those in the car. They are included to show their approximate appearance and location in the car. The information that applies to your particular car is available on the respective decals for your car.


Procedure lists Procedures where action must be taken in a certain sequence are numbered in the owner's manual.


01 Introduction


When there is a series of illustrations for step-by-step instructions each step is numbered in the same way as the corres- ponding illustration. There are numbered lists with letters adjacent to the series of illustrations where the order of the instructions is not significant. Arrows appear numbered and unnum- bered and are used to illustrate a move- ment. Arrows with letters are used to clarify a movement when the reciprocal order is of no relevance.


If there is no series of illustrations for step-by- step instructions then the different steps are numbered with normal numbers.


Position lists


Red circles containing a number are used in overview images where different com- ponents are pointed out. The number recurs in the position list featured in con- nection with the illustration that describes the item.


Bulleted lists A bulleted list is used when there is a list of points in the owner's manual. Example: • Coolant • Engine oil

for a certain length of time, but also as a result of a collision or incident. This informa- tion may be stored by Volvo as long as it can help to further develop and further enhance safety and quality and as long as there are legal requirements and other regulations that Volvo needs to consider. Volvo will not contribute to the above-descri- bed information being disclosed to third par- ties without the vehicle owner's consent. However, due to national legislation and reg- ulations Volvo may be required to disclose such information to authorities such as police authorities, or others who may assert a legal right to have access to it. To be able to read and interpret the informa- tion recorded by the computers in the vehicle requires special technical equipment that Volvo, and workshops that have entered into agreements with Volvo, have access to. Volvo is responsible that the information, which is transferred to Volvo during servicing and maintenance, is stored and handled in a secure manner and that the handling com- plies with applicable legal requirements. For further information - contact a Volvo dealer.


Recording data Certain information about the vehicle's opera- tion and functionality, and any incidents, are recorded in the car.


Your vehicle contains a number of computers whose function is to continuously check and monitor the vehicle's operation and function- ality. Some of the computers can record information during normal driving if they detect an error. In addition, information is recorded in the event of a collision or inci- dent. Parts of the recorded information are required so that technicians can diagnose and rectify faults in the vehicle during servic- ing and maintenance and so that Volvo can fulfil legal requirements and other regulations. In addition to this, the information is used for research purposes by Volvo in order to con- tinually develop quality and safety, as the information can contribute to a better under- standing of the factors that cause accidents and injuries. The information includes details of the status and functionality of various sys- tems and modules in the vehicle with regard to engine, throttle, steering and brake sys- tems, amongst other things. This information may include details regarding the way the driver drives the vehicle, such as vehicle speed, brake and accelerator pedal use, steering wheel movement and whether or not the driver and passengers have used their seatbelts. For the reasons given this informa- tion may be stored in the vehicle's computers


Accessories and extra equipment The incorrect connection and installation of accessories and extra equipment can nega- tively affect the car's electronic system.


Certain accessories only function when asso- ciated software is installed in the car's com- puter system. Volvo therefore recommends that you always contact an authorised Volvo workshop before installing accessories or extra equipment which are connected to or affect the electrical system.


Heat-reflecting windscreen*


The windscreen is equipped with a heat- reflecting film (IR) that reduces the solar heat radiation into the passenger compartment. The positioning of electronic equipment, such as a transponder, behind a glass surface with heat-reflecting film may affect its function and performance. For the optimal function of electronic equip- ment, it should be positioned on the part of the windscreen with no heat-reflecting film (see the highlighted area in the above illustra- tion).

Volvo Cars' environmental philosophy Your Volvo complies with strict international environmental standards and is also manufac-


tured in one of the cleanest and most resource-efficient plants in the world.


01 Introduction


01


Environmental care is one of Volvo Car Cor- poration's core values which influence all operations. We also believe that our custom- ers share our consideration for the environ- ment. Your Volvo complies with strict international environmental standards and is also manu- factured in one of the cleanest and most resource-efficient plants in the world. Volvo Car Corporation has global ISO certification, which includes the environmental standard ISO 14001 covering all factories and several of our other units. We also set requirements


for our partners so that they work systemati- cally with environmental issues.


Fuel consumption Volvo cars have competitive fuel consump- tion in each of their respective classes. Lower fuel consumption generally results in lower emission of the greenhouse gas, carbon diox- ide. It is possible for the driver to influence fuel consumption. For more information read under the heading, Reducing environmental impact.


Efficient emission control Your Volvo is manufactured following the concept "Clean inside and out" – a concept that encompasses a clean interior environ- ment as well as highly efficient emission con- trol. In many cases the exhaust emissions are well below the applicable standards.


Clean air in the passenger compartment A passenger compartment filter prevents dust and pollen from entering the passenger com- partment via the air intake.


}} 19


Following this advice can save money, the planet's resources are saved, and the car's durability is extended. For more information and further advice, see Eco guide (p. 63), Economical driving (p. 305) and Fuel con- sumption (p. 403).


Recycling As a part of Volvo's environmental work, it is important that the car is recycled in an envi- ronmentally sound manner. Almost all of the car can be recycled. The last owner of the car is therefore requested to contact a dealer for referral to a certified/approved recycling facility.

01 Introduction || A sophisticated air quality system, IAQS* (Interior Air Quality System) ensures that the incoming air is cleaner than the air in the traf- fic outside. The system consists of an electronic sensor and a carbon filter. The incoming air is moni- tored continuously and if there is an increase in the level of certain unhealthy gases such as carbon monoxide then the air intake is closed. Such a situation may arise in heavy traffic, queues and tunnels for example. The entry of nitrous oxides, ground-level ozone and hydrocarbons is prevented by the carbon filter.


Interior The interior of a Volvo is designed to be plea- sant and comfortable, even for people with contact allergies and for asthma sufferers. Extreme attention has been given to choosing environmentally-compatible materials.


Volvo workshops and the environment Regular maintenance creates the conditions for a long service life and low fuel consump- tion for your car. In this way you contribute to a cleaner environment. When Volvo's work- shops are entrusted with the service and maintenance of your car it becomes part of our system. Volvo makes clear demands regarding the way in which our workshops are designed in order to prevent spills and discharges into the environment. Our work- shop staff have the knowledge and the tools


required to guarantee good environmental care.


Reducing environmental impact You can easily help reduce environmental impact - here are a few tips: • Avoid letting the engine idle - switch off


the engine when stationary for longer periods. Pay attention to local regula- tions.


• Drive economically - think ahead. • Perform service and maintenance in


accordance with the owner's manual's instructions - follow the intervals recom- mended in the Service and Warranty Booklet.


• If the car is equipped with an engine


block heater*, use it before starting from cold - it improves starting capacity and reduces wear in cold weather and the engine reaches normal operating tem- perature more quickly, which lowers con- sumption and reduces emissions.


• High speed increases consumption con-


siderably due to increased wind resis- tance - a doubling of speed increases wind resistance 4 times.


• Always dispose of environmentally hazar- dous waste, such as batteries and oils, in an environmentally safe manner. Consult a workshop in the event of uncertainty about how this type of waste should be discarded - an authorised Volvo work- shop is recommended.

SAFETY


General information on seatbelts Heavy braking can have serious consequen- ces if the seatbelts are not used. Ensure that all passengers are using their seatbelts during the journey.


• The hip strap must be positioned low


down (not over the abdomen).


• Tension the hip strap over the lap by pull- ing the diagonal shoulder belt up towards the shoulder.

02 Safety


WARNING


The seatbelts and airbags interact. If a seatbelt is not used or is used incorrectly, this may diminish the protection provided by the airbag in the event of a collision.


WARNING


Each seatbelt is designed for only one per- son.


WARNING


Never modify or repair the seatbelts your- self. Volvo recommends that you contact an authorised Volvo workshop. If a seatbelt has been subjected to a major load, such as in conjunction with a colli- sion, the entire seatbelt must be replaced. Some of the protective characteristics of the seatbelt may have been lost, even if it appears to be undamaged. In addition, replace the seatbelt if the belt is worn or damaged. The new seatbelt must be type- approved and intended for installation in the same position as the replaced seatbelt.


It is important that the seatbelt lies against the body so it can provide maximum protec- tion. Do not lean the backrest too far back. The seatbelt is designed to protect in a nor- mal seating position. Unbelted occupants will be reminded to fas- ten (p. 24) their seatbelt by means of an audio and visual reminder (p. 26).


Remember • Do not use clips or anything else that can prevent the seatbelt from fitting properly.


• The seatbelt must not be twisted or


caught on anything.


23


Remember The seatbelt locks and cannot be withdrawn: • if it is pulled out too quickly • during braking and acceleration • if the car leans heavily. Related information • Seatbelt - pregnancy (p. 25) • Seat belt - loosening (p. 25) • Seatbelt tensioner (p. 26) • Seatbelt reminder (p. 26)

The diagonal section should wrap over the shoulder then be routed between the breasts and to the side of the abdomen. The lap section should lay flat over the thighs and as low as possible under the abdomen. – It must never be allowed to ride upward. Remove the slack from the seatbelt and ensure that it fits as close to the body as pos- sible. In addition, check that there are no twists in the seatbelt. As the pregnancy progresses, pregnant dri- vers must adjust the seat (p. 72) and steer- ing wheel (p. 76) such that they can easily maintain control of the vehicle as they drive (which means that they must be able to easily operate the foot pedals and steering wheel).

• Provides a warning if one of the rear seat-


belts is unfastened during travel. This warning takes the form of a message in the combined instrument panel along with the audio/visual signal. The warning stops when the seatbelt is re-fastened, or it can also be acknowledged manually by pressing the OK button.


The message in the combined instrument panel showing which seatbelts are in use is always shown. Press the OK button to see stored messages.


Certain markets An acoustic signal and indicator lamp remind the driver and front seat passenger to use a seatbelt if either of them is not wearing one. At low speed, the audible reminder will sound for the first 6 seconds.


Seatbelt tensioner All the seatbelts (p. 23) are equipped with belt tensioners. A mechanism in the seatbelt ten- sioner tightens the seatbelt in the event of a sufficiently violent collision. The seatbelt then provides more effective restraint for the occu- pants.


WARNING


Never insert the tongue of the passenger's seatbelt into the buckle on the driver's side. Always insert the tongue of the seat- belt into the buckle on the correct side. Do not make any damages on seatbelts nor insert any foreign objects into a buckle. The seatbelts and buckles would then possibly not function as intended in the event of a collision. There is a risk of serous injury.

28


The system consists of airbags and sensors. A sufficiently violent collision trips the sensors and the airbag(s) are inflated and become hot. To cushion the impact, the airbag deflates when compressed. When this occurs, smoke escapes into the car. This is completely normal. The entire process, including inflation and deflation of the airbag, occurs within tenths of a second.


WARNING


Volvo recommends that you contact an authorised Volvo workshop for repair. Defective work in the airbag system could cause malfunction and result in serious personal injury.


NOTE


The detectors react differently depending on the nature of the collision and whether or not the seatbelts are fastened. Applies to all belt positions. It is therefore possible that only one (or none) of the airbags may inflate in a colli- sion. The detectors sense the force of the collision on the vehicle and the action is adapted accordingly so that one or more airbags are deployed.

Side airbag (SIPS) In a side impact collision a large proportion of the collision force is transferred by the SIPS (Side Impact Protection System) to beams, pillars, the floor, the roof and other structural parts of the body. The side airbags at the driv- er's and front passenger seats protect the chest area and the hip and are an important part of the SIPS.


02


Indicator showing that the passenger airbag is deactivated. A text message and a symbol in the roof con- sole indicate that the airbag for the front pas- senger seat is deactivated (see preceding illustration).


WARNING


Do not allow anyone to sit in the front pas- senger seat if the message in the roof con- sole indicates that the airbag is deacti- vated, and if the warning symbol(p. 27) for the airbag system is also displayed on the combined instrument panel. This indicates that there has been a severe malfunction. Visit a workshop as soon as possible. Volvo recommends that you contact an authorised Volvo workshop.


The SIPS bag system consists of two main components, side airbag and sensors. The side airbags are located in the front seat backrests. A sufficiently violent collision trips the sensors and the side airbags are inflated. The airbag inflates between the occupant and the door panel and thereby cushions the initial impact. The airbag deflates when compressed by the collision. The side airbag is normally only deployed on the side of the collision.


31


Side airbag (SIPS) - child seat/booster cushion The protection provided by the car to children seated in a child seat or on a booster cushion is not diminished by the side airbag (p. 31).


Child seat/booster cushion (p. 40) can be placed on the front passenger seat provided that the car does not have an activated airbag (p. 30) on the front passenger side.

WARNING


• Volvo recommends that repairs are


only carried out by an authorised Volvo workshop. Defective work in the SIPS- bag system could cause malfunction and result in serious personal injury.


• Do not put objects in the area between


the outside of the seat and the door panel, since this area is required by the side airbag.


• Volvo recommends the use only of car seat covers approved by Volvo. Other seat covers may impede the operation of the side airbags.

Inflatable Curtain (IC) The inflatable curtain helps to prevent the driver and passengers from striking their heads on the inside of the car during a colli- sion.


Inflatable curtain IC (Inflatable Curtain) is part of the SIPS system (p. 31) and the airbag sys- tem (p. 28). It is fitted in the headlining along both sides of the roof and protects the car's occupants sitting in the outer seats. A suffi- ciently violent collision trips the sensors and the inflatable curtain is inflated.


WARNING


Never hang or attach heavy items onto the handles in the roof. The hook is only designed for light clothing (not for solid objects such as umbrellas for example). Do not screw or install anything onto the car's headlining, door pillars or side pan- els. This could compromise the intended protection. Volvo recommends that you only ever use Volvo genuine parts that are approved for placement in these areas.


WARNING


Do not load the car higher than 50 mm under the top edge of the door windows. Otherwise, the intended protection of the inflatable curtain, which is concealed in the headlining, may be compromised.

General information on child safety Children of all ages and sizes must always sit correctly secured in the car. Never allow a child to sit on the knee of a passenger.


Volvo recommends that children travel in rear-facing child seats until as late an age as possible, at least until 3-4 years of age, and then front-facing booster cushions/child seats until up to 10 years of age. The position of a child in the car and the choice of equipment are dictated by the child's weight and size; see Child seats (p. 40).


NOTE


Regulations regarding the placement of children in cars vary from country to coun- try. Check what does apply.


Volvo has child safety equipment (child seats, booster cushions & attachment devices) which is designed for your particular car. Using Volvo's child safety equipment pro- vides you with optimum conditions for your child to travel safely in the car. Furthermore, the child safety equipment fits and is easy to use.
