YOUR VOLVO
Drive-E – purer driving pleasure
Volvo is committed to the well-being of its customers. As a natural part of this commitment, we care about the environment in which we all live. Concern for the environment means an everyday involvement in reducing our environmental impact.
Volvo's environmental activities are based on a holistic view, which means we consider the overall environmental impact of a product throughout its complete life cycle. In this context, design, production, product use, and recycling are all important considerations. In production, Volvo has partly or completely phased out several chemicals including CFCs, lead chromates, asbestos, and cadmium; and reduced the number of chemicals used in our plants 50% since 1991.
Volvo was the first in the world to introduce into production a three-way catalytic converter with a Lambda sond, now called the heated oxygen sensor, in 1976. The current version of this highly efficient system reduces emissions of harmful substances (CO, HC, NOx) from the exhaust pipe by approximately 95 - 99% and the search to eliminate the remaining emissions continues. Volvo is the only automobile manufacturer to offer CFC-free retrofit kits for the air conditioning system of all models as far back as the 1975 model 240. Advanced electronic engine controls and cleaner fuels are bringing us closer to our goal. In addition to continuous environmental refinement of conventional gasoline-powered internal combustion engines, Volvo is actively looking at advanced technology alternative-fuel vehicles.
When you drive a Volvo, you become our partner in the work to lessen the vehicle's impact on the environment. To reduce your vehicle's environmental impact, you can:
- Maintain proper air pressure in your tires. Tests have shown decreased fuel economy with improperly inflated tires.
- Follow the recommended maintenance schedule in your Warranty and Service Records Information booklet.
- Drive at a constant speed whenever possible.
- See a trained and qualified Volvo service technician as soon as possible for inspection if the check engine (malfunction indicator) light illuminates, or stays on after the vehicle has started.
- Properly dispose of any vehicle-related waste such as used motor oil, used batteries, brake pads, etc.
- When cleaning your vehicle, please use genuine Volvo car care products. All Volvo car care products are formulated to be environmentally friendly.

Data recording
As part of Volvo's commitment to safety and quality, certain information is recorded regarding vehicle operation, functionality and incidents.
US market only:
EDR
This vehicle is equipped with an "Event Data Recorder" (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an air bag deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how a vehicle's systems performed. The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety systems for a short period of time, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such data as:
- How various systems in your vehicle were operating;
- Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/fastened;
- How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or brake pedal; and,
• How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in which crashes and injuries occur. NOTE: EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-
trivial crash situation occurs; no data are recorded by the EDR under normal driving conditions and no personal data (e.g., name, gender, age, and crash location) are recorded. However, other parties, such as law enforcement, could combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifying data routinely acquired during a crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to the vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties, such as law enforcement, that have the special equipment, can read the information if they have access to the vehicle or the EDR.
ASDR
This vehicle is equipped with an Active Safety Data Recorder (ASDR). This data recorder can record information related to the usage of the car, functional errors and active safety actuations (e.g. auto brake). The information saved is used by technicians for service and maintenance to diagnose and repair possible faults that has occurred in the vehicle and to fulfil certain legal requirements. The registered data can also, in congregated form, be used for research- and product development – purposes to continuously improve the safety and quality of Volvo Cars. For more information contact your local Volvo retailer.
YOUR VOLVO
Canadian market only:
This vehicle is equipped with an “Event Data Recorder” (EDR). The main purpose of the EDR is to register and record data in traffic accidents or accident-like situations, e.g. if an airbag deploys or if the vehicle hits an obstacle in the road. This data is recorded in order to help understand how the vehicle's systems perform in these types of situations. The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety systems for a short period of time, usually 30 seconds or less.
The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record data in traffic accidents or accident-like situations such as:
- How the various systems in the vehicle performed;
- Whether the driver and passenger seat belts were tightened/buckled;
- The driver's use of the accelerator/brake pedal;
• How fast the vehicle was moving.
This data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in which traffic accidents and injuries occur. The EDR records data only if a non-trivial accident situation occurs. EDR does not record any data during normal driving conditions. The system also never registers data on who is driving the vehicle or the geographical location of the acci-
dent or near-accident. However, other parties, such as law enforcement, could combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifiable information that is routinely acquired during an accident investigation. Special equipment and access to either the vehicle or the EDR is required to read this recorded data.
In addition to the EDR, the vehicle is equipped with a number of computers that continuously control and monitor the vehicle's performance. These computers may record data during normal driving conditions, particularly if they detect a fault relating to the vehicle's operation and functionality or upon activation of the vehicle's active driver support functions (e.g. City Safety or the auto-brake function).
Some of this recorded data is required by technicians performing service and maintenance in order to diagnose and rectify any faults that may have occurred in the vehicle. The recorded information is also needed to enable Volvo to fulfill legal and other regulatory requirements. Information registered in the vehicle is stored in its computers until the vehicle is serviced or repaired.
In addition to the above, the recorded information may be used in aggregated form for research and product development purposes in order to continuously improve the safety and quality of Volvo vehicles.
Volvo will not provide this information to any third parties without the vehicle owner's consent. However, national legislation and regulations may require Volvo to disclose this type of information to law enforcement or other authorities that can claim a legal right to the information. Special technical equipment, which Volvo and workshops that have entered agreements with Volvo have access to, is required to read and interpret the recorded data. Volvo is responsible for ensuring that information provided to Volvo in conjunction with service and maintenance is stored and handled securely and in compliance with applicable legal requirements. For more information, please contact a Volvo retailer.
Vehicle Connectivity Module (VCM High)
Vehicles equipped with VCM High can collect data on the vehicle's safety functions as well as other functions in the vehicle. This data is collected for product development, quality follow-up, safety work and to improve and monitor the vehicle's quality and its safety functions. Data is also collected in order to manage Volvo Cars' warranty commitments and to comply with legal requirements related to engine emission data.

NOTE
When collecting data, Volvo may use a small portion of the vehicle's data plan, up to 10 MB a month.

Technician certification
In addition to Volvo factory training, Volvo supports certification by the National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (A.S.E.).
Certified technicians have demonstrated a high degree of competence in specific areas. Besides passing exams, each technician must also have worked in the field for two or more years before a certificate is issued. These professional technicians are best able to analyze vehicle problems and perform the necessary maintenance procedures to keep your Volvo at peak operating condition.
Viewing the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)
When contacting a Volvo retailer, about e.g. your Volvo On Call subscription, your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN 5 ) may be needed.
-
Tap Settings in the center display's Top view.
-
Proceed to System System Information → Vehicle Identification Number.
The vehicle identification number will be displayed.
The VIN can also be found:
• on the first page of the Warranty and Service Records Information booklet

- by looking at the dashboard through the vehicle's windshield.

The VIN has a similar location on all models.
Volvo Structural Parts Statement
Volvo is one of the leading companies for car safety.
Volvo engineers and manufactures vehicles designed to help protect vehicle occupants in the event of a collision.
Volvos are designed to absorb the impact of a collision. This energy absorption system including, but not limited to, structural components such as bumper reinforcement bars, bumper energy absorbers, frames, rails, fender aprons, A-pillars, B-pillars and body panels must work together to maintain cabin integrity and protect the vehicle occupants.
The supplemental restraint system including but not limited to air bags, side curtain air bags, and deployment sensors work together with the above components to provide proper timing for air bag deployment.
Due to the above, Volvo Car USA does not support the use of aftermarket, alternative or anything other than original Volvo parts for collision repair.
Volvo Car USA also recommends using Volvo-approved replacement glass. The use of aftermarket glass, particularly a windshield, can have an adverse effect on collision avoidance and advanced lighting systems.
YOUR VOLVO
In addition Volvo does not support the use or re-use of structural components from an existing vehicle that has been previously damaged. Although these parts may appear equivalent, it is difficult to tell if the parts have been previously replaced with non-OE parts or if the part has been damaged as a result of a prior collision. The quality of these used parts may also have been affected due to environmental exposure.

Driver distraction
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. Part of this responsibility is avoiding distractions, including performing activities that are not directly related to controlling the vehicle in the driving environment.
Your new Volvo is, or can be, equipped with 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. Never use these devices or any feature of your vehicle in a way that distracts you from the task of driving safely. Distraction can lead to a serious accident. In addition to this general warning, we offer the following guidance regarding specific new features that may be found in your vehicle:
WARNING
- Never use a hand-held cellular telephone while driving. Some jurisdictions prohibit cellular telephone use by a driver while the vehicle is moving.
- If your vehicle is equipped with a navigation system, set and make changes to your travel itinerary only with the vehicle parked.
- 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.

SAFETY
Safety
The vehicle is equipped with a number of safety systems that work together to help protect the vehicle's driver and passengers in the event of an accident.
The vehicle is equipped with a number of sensors that may react in the event of an accident and activate different safety systems, such as the airbag system and seat belt tensioners.
Depending on the specific conditions of the accident, e.g. collisions at certain angles, overturning or swerving, the systems react differently to help provide good protection.
There are also mechanical safety systems such as the Whiplash Protection System. The vehicle is also built so that a large part of the force of a collision is distributed to the vehicle's members, pillars, floor, roof and other parts of the body.
After an accident, the vehicle's safety mode may be activated if any important function in the vehicle has been damaged.
Warning symbol in the instrument panel

The warning symbol in the instrument panel illuminates when the vehicle's electrical system is in ignition mode II. The symbol will go out
after approx. 6 seconds if no faults are detected in the vehicle's safety systems.

WARNING
If the warning symbol remains illuminated or switches on while driving and the message SRS airbag Service urgent Drive to workshop is displayed in the instrument panel, this indicates that something in the safety system is not functioning properly. Volvo recommends contacting an authorized Volvo workshop for repairs as soon as possible.

WARNING
Never attempt to alter or repair any of the vehicle's safety systems yourself. Incorrectly performed repairs to any system could impair function and lead to serious injury. Volvo recommends contacting an authorized Volvo workshop.

Whiplash Protection System
The Whiplash Protection System (WHIPS) is designed to help reduce the risk of whiplash-type injuries. The system consists of energy absorbing backrests and seat cushions as well as specially designed head restraints in the front seats.
WHIPS is activated in the event of a rear-end collision and adapted to the angle and speed of the collision and to the characteristics of the colliding vehicle.
When WHIPS is activated, the front seat backrests move rearward and the seat cushions move downward to change the seating positions of the driver and front seat passenger. This movement helps absorb some of the forces that could result in whiplash.
WARNING
WHIPS is a supplement to the seat belt. Always wear your seat belt.
WARNING
Do not attempt to alter or repair the seat or WHIPS on your own. Volvo recommends contacting an authorized Volvo workshop.
If the front seats have been subjected to severe stress, e.g. in a collision, the seats must be replaced. Even if the seats appear undamaged, some of their protective properties may have been lost.

natural_image
3D rendered human figure seated in a car seat with red X marks indicating failure or absence (no text or symbols present)Do not place any objects on the floor behind or under the front seats or on the rear seat that could prevent WHIPS from functioning correctly.

WARNING
Do not squeeze box-like cargo between the rear seat cushion and the front seat back-rest.
If the rear seat backrests are folded down, cargo must be secured to prevent it from sliding forward against the front seat backrests in the event of a collision.

WARNING
If a rear seat backrest is folded down or if a rear-facing child restraint is being used in the rear seat, the seat in front must be moved forward so that it does not come into contact with the backrest or child restraint.
Seating position
For WHIPS to provide good protection, the driver and passenger must be seated correctly and the system's function must not be impeded in any way.
Set the front seat to the correct seating position before starting to drive.
The driver and the front seat passenger should sit in the center of the seat with their heads as close as possible to the head restraints.

WARNING
- Never repair the belt yourself. Repairs should only be performed by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician.
- Any device used to induce slack into the shoulder belt portion of the three-point belt system will have a detrimental effect on the amount of protection available in the event of a collision.
- The seat back should not be tilted too far back. The shoulder belt must be taut in order to function properly.
- Do not use any type of child restraint in the front passenger seat. We recommend that children who have outgrown these devices sit in the rear seat with the seat belt properly fastened.

Buckling and unbuckling seat belts
Make sure that all passengers have buckled their seat belts before starting to drive.
Buckling seat belts
- Pull out the belt slowly and make sure it is not twisted or damaged.

NOTE
The seat belt is equipped with a seat belt retractor that will lock up in the following situations:
• if the belt is pulled out too quickly.
• during braking and acceleration.
- if the vehicle is leaning excessively.
- when driving in turns.
- if the automatic locking retractor/emergency locking retractor (ALR/ELR) is activated. Each seat belt (except for the driver's) is equipped with an ALR function, which is designed to keep the seat belt taut when installing a child restraint. ALR is activated when the seat belt is pulled out as far as possible. If this is done, a sound from the seat belt retractor will be audible, which is normal. The seat belt can now only be fed into the retractor, not pulled out. This function is automatically disabled when the seat belt is unbuckled and fully retracted.
SAFETY
- Buckle the seat belt by pushing the latch plate into the receptacle.
A distinct "click" indicates that the belt is locked into place.

WARNING
Always insert the seat belt latch plate into the belt buckle on the correct side. Failure to do so could cause the seat belts and belt buckles to malfunction in a collision. There is a risk of serious injury.
- The height of the seat belts in the front seats can be adjusted.

SAFETY
◀◀

WARNING
Never use a seat belt for more than one occupant. Never wear the shoulder portion of the belt under the arm, behind the back or otherwise out of position. Such use could cause injury in the event of an accident. As seat belts lose much of their strength when exposed to violent stretching, they should be replaced after any collision, even if they appear to be undamaged,

WARNING
Do not use clips or fasten the belts around hooks or other parts of the interior. This will prevent the seat belt from fitting properly.

WARNING
Never damage the seat belts and never insert any foreign objects into the belt buckle. This may cause the seat belts and belt buckles to malfunction in a collision. There is a risk of serious injury.
Unbuckling seat belts
- Press the red button on the seat belt receptacle and make sure the seat belt retracts fully into the retractor slot.
- If it does not fully retract, guide the belt manually into the slot and make sure it does not hang loose.

Seat belt tensioners
The vehicle is equipped with standard and electric* seat belt tensioners that can help tension the seat belt in a critical situation or collision.
Standard seat belt tensioners
All seat belts are equipped with a standard seat belt tensioner.
In a collision of sufficiently violent force, the seat belt tensioners will tension the seat belts in order to more effectively restrain the occupants.
Electric seat belt tensioners\*
The driver's and front passenger's seat belts are equipped with electric seat belt tensioners.
The seat belt tensioners interact and can be activated in conjunction with the City Safety and Rear Collision Warning driver support systems. In critical situations, such as if the vehicle brakes suddenly, begins to skid or runs off the road (e.g if the vehicle rolls into a ditch, lifts off the ground or hits an obstacle in the road), or if there is a risk of collision, the seat belts can be pulled taut by the seat belt tensioner's electric motor.
The electric seat belt tensioner helps to position the occupant more effectively in the seat, which reduces the risk of the occupant striking the interior of the passenger compartment
and improves the effect of other safety systems such as the airbags.
When a critical situation has passed, the seat belt and the electric seat belt tensioner are reset automatically. However, they can also be reset manually.

CAUTION
If the passenger airbag is deactivated, the passenger-side electric seat belt tensioner may also be deactivated.

WARNING
Never attempt to alter or repair the seat belt on your own. Volvo recommends contacting an authorized Volvo workshop.
If the seat belt has been exposed to extreme forces, e.g. in conjunction with a collision, the entire seat belt must be replaced. Even if the seat belt appears undamaged, some of its protective properties may have been lost. Also replace the seat belt if it is worn or damaged. The new seat belt must be type approved and intended for the same seating position as the replaced seat belt.

WARNING
- If the airbag warning light stays on after the engine has started or if it illuminates while you are driving, have the vehicle inspected by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician as soon as possible.
- Never attempt to alter or repair any of the vehicle's safety systems yourself. Incorrectly performed repairs to any system could impair function and lead to serious injury. All work on these systems should be performed by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician.

WARNING
If your vehicle has become water-damaged in any way (e.g., soaked floor mats/standing water on the floor of the vehicle), do not attempt to start the engine. This may cause airbag deployment, which could result in serious injury. Volvo recommends towing the vehicle directly to an authorized Volvo workshop.
Before attempting to tow the vehicle:
- Switch off the ignition for at least 10 minutes and disconnect the battery.
- Follow the instructions for manually overriding the shiftlock system.

SAFETY
Driver/passenger side front airbags
As a supplement to the seat belts, the vehicle is equipped with driver and passenger side front airbags.

natural_image
Interior view of a car showing two red seats with a digital dashboard (no visible text or symbols)Driver/passenger side front airbags.
In a frontal collision, the airbags help protect the driver's and passenger's head, neck, face and chest and the driver's knees and legs.
A collision of a sufficiently violent force will trigger the sensors and one or more airbags will inflate. The airbag helps cushion the initial impact of the collision for the passenger. The airbag deflates when compressed by the collision. A small amount of powder will also be released from the airbag. This may appear to be smoke and is normal. The entire process, from inflation to deflation of the airbag, occurs within tenths of a second.
i NOTE
The sensors react differently depending on the circumstances of the accident and whether or not the seat belt is used. This applies to all belt positions.
There may therefore be accident situations in which only one (or none) of the airbags are deployed. The sensors monitor the impact of the collision and react accordingly to deploy one, several or no airbags.
WARNING
The seat belt and the airbag work together. If the seat belt is not used or is used incorrectly, the airbag may not provide the intended protection in a collision.
To help prevent injury in the event the airbag is deployed, passengers should sit as upright as possible, with their feet on the floor and their backs against the seat back-rest.
WARNING
Volvo recommends contacting an authorized Volvo workshop for repairs. Incorrectly performed repairs to the airbag system could impair function and lead to serious injury.
The front airbag system
The front airbag system includes gas generators surrounded by the airbags, and deceleration sensors that activate the gas generators, causing the airbags to be inflated with nitrogen gas.
As the movement of the seats' occupants compresses the airbags, some of the gas is expelled at a controlled rate to provide better cushioning. The belt tensioners minimize slack in the seat belts and are activated for occupants wearing their seat belts. The entire process, from inflation to deflation of the airbag, occurs within tenths of a second.
The location of the front airbags is indicated by SRS AIRBAG embossed on the steering wheel pad and above the glove compartment, and by decals on both sun visors and on the front and far right side of the dash.
The driver's side front airbag is folded and located in the steering wheel hub.
The knee airbag is folded on the underside of the dashboard on the driver's side. The text AIRBAG is embossed on the panel.
The passenger's side front airbag is folded behind a panel located above the glove compartment.

WARNING
- The airbags in the vehicle are designed to be a SUPPLEMENT to-not a replacement for the three-point seat belts. For maximum protection, wear seat belts at all times. Be aware that no system can prevent all possible injuries that may occur in an accident.
- Never drive with your hands on the steering wheel pad/airbag housing.
- The front airbags are designed to help prevent serious injury. Deployment occurs very quickly and with considerable force. During normal deployment and depending on variables such as seating position, one may experience abrasions, bruises, swellings, or other injuries as a result of deployment of one or both of the airbags.
- When installing any accessory equipment, make sure that the front airbag system is not damaged. Any interference in the system could cause malfunction.
deploy in certain non-frontal collisions where rapid deceleration occurs.
- The airbag system's sensors, which trigger the front airbags, are designed to determine if the collision is powerful enough to activate the belt tensioners and/or the airbags.
However, not all frontal collisions activate the front airbags.
- If the collision involves a nonrigid object (e.g., a snow drift or bush), or a rigid, fixed object at a low speed, the front airbags will not necessarily deploy.
- Front airbags do not normally deploy in a side impact collision, in a collision from the rear or in a rollover situation.
- The amount of damage to the bodywork does not reliably indicate if the airbags should have deployed or not.

NOTE
- Deployment of front airbags occurs only one time during an accident. In a collision where deployment occurs, the airbags and seat belt tensioners activate. Some noise occurs and a small amount of powder is released. The release of the powder may appear as smoke-like matter. This is a normal characteristic and does not indicate fire.
- Volvo's front airbags use special sensors that are integrated with the front seat buckles. The point at which the airbag deploys is determined by whether or not the seat belt is being used, as well as the severity of the collision.
- Collisions can occur where only one of the airbags deploys. If the impact is less severe, but severe enough to present a clear injury risk, the airbags are triggered at partial capacity. If the impact is more severe, the airbags are triggered at full capacity.
Front airbag deployment
- The front airbags are designed to deploy during certain frontal or front-angular collisions, impacts, or decelerations, depending on the crash severity, angle, speed and object impacted. The airbags may also

WARNING
- Do not use child safety seats or child booster cushions/backrests in the front passenger's seat. We also recommend that occupants under 140 cm (4 feet 7 inches) in height who have outgrown these devices sit in the rear seat with the seat belt fastened. See also the Occupant Weight Sensor information,
- Never drive with the airbags deployed. The fact that they hang out can impair the steering of your vehicle. Other safety systems can also be damaged.
- The smoke and dust formed when the airbags are deployed can cause skin and eye irritation in the event of prolonged exposure.

• Occupant weight sensor (p. 59)
Occupant weight sensor
The Occupant Weight Sensor (OWS) is designed to meet the regulatory requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) 208 and is designed to disable (will not inflate) the passenger's side front airbag under certain conditions.

Occupant Weight Sensor (OWS) Indicator light
Disabling the passenger's side front airbag
Volvo recommends that ALL occupants (adults and children) shorter than 140 cm (4 feet 7 inches) be seated in the back seat of any vehicle with a front passenger side airbag and be properly restrained for their size and weight.
The OWS works with sensors that are part of the front passenger's seat and seat belt. The sensors are designed to detect the presence
of a properly seated occupant and determine if the passenger's side front airbag should be enabled (may inflate) or disabled (will not inflate).
The OWS will disable (will not inflate) the passenger's side front airbag when:
- the front passenger's seat is unoccupied, or has small/medium objects in the front seat,
- the system determines that an infant is present in a rear-facing infant seat that is installed according to the manufacturer's instructions,
- the system determines that a small child is present in a forward-facing child restraint that is installed according to the manufacturer's instructions,
- the system determines that a small child is present in a booster seat,
- a child or a small person occupies the front passenger's seat.
The OWS uses a PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF indicator lamp which will illuminate and stay on to remind you that the passenger's side front airbag is disabled. The PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF indicator lamp is located in the overhead console, near the base of the rear-view mirror.
SAFETY
◀◀

NOTE
When the ignition is switched on, the OWS indicator light will illuminate for several seconds while the system performs a self-diagnostic test.
However, if a fault is detected in the system:
• The OWS indicator light will stay on
- The SRS warning light will come on and stay on and a text message will be displayed.

WARNING
If a fault in the system is detected and indicated as described, be aware that the passenger's side front airbag will not deploy in the event of a collision. In this case, the SRS system and Occupant Weight Sensor should be inspected by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician as soon as possible.

WARNING
- Never try to open, remove or repair any components in the OWS system. This could cause the system to malfunction. Maintenance or repairs should only be carried out by an a trained and qualified Volvo service technician.
- The front passenger's seat should not be modified in any way. This could reduce pressure on the seat cushion, which might interfere with the OWS system's function.
| Passenger's seat occupancy status | OWS indicator light status | Passenger's side front airbag status |
| Seat unoccupied | OWS indicator light lights up | Passenger's side front airbag disabled |
| Seat occupied by low weight occupant/object A | OWS indicator light lights up | Passenger's side front airbag disabled |
| Seat occupied by heavy occupant/object | OWS indicator light is not lit | Passenger's side front airbag enabled |
A Volvo recommends that children always be properly restrained in appropriate child restraints in the rear seats. Do not assume that the passenger's side front airbag is disabled unless the PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF indicator lamp is lit. Make sure the child restraint is properly installed. If there is any doubt as to the status of the passenger's side front airbag, move the child restraint to the rear seat.
The OWS is designed to enable (may inflate) the passenger's side front airbag in the event of a collision anytime the system senses that a person of adult size is sitting properly in the front passenger's seat. The PASSENGER AIR-BAG OFF indicator lamp will be off and remain off.
If a person of adult size is sitting in the front passenger's seat, but the PASSENGER AIR-
BAG OFF indicator lamp is on, it is possible that the person isn't sitting properly in the seat. If this happens:
- Turn the vehicle off and ask the person to place the backrest in an upright position.
- Have the person sit upright in the seat, centered on the seat cushion, with the person's legs comfortably extended.
- Restart the vehicle and have the person remain in this position for about two minutes. This will allow the system to detect that person and enable the passenger's frontal airbag.
- If the PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF indicator lamp remains on even after this, the person should be advised to ride in the rear seat.
This indicates limitations in OWS classification capability. It does not indicate OWS malfunction.
Modifications
If you are considering modifying your vehicle in any way to accommodate a disability, for example by altering or adapting the driver's or front passenger's seat(s) and/or airbag systems, please contact Volvo at:

WARNING
- No objects that add to the total weight on the seat should be placed on the front passenger's seat. If a child is seated in the front passenger's seat with any additional weight, this extra weight could cause the OWS system to enable the airbag, which might cause it to deploy in the event of a collision, thereby injuring the child.
- The seat belt should never be wrapped around an object on the front passenger's seat. This could interfere with the OWS system's function.
- The front passenger's seat belt should never be used in a way that exerts more pressure on the passenger than normal. This could increase the pressure exerted on the weight sensor by a child, and could result in the airbag being enabled, which might cause it to deploy in the event of a collision, thereby injuring the child.
SAFETY
◀◀

WARNING
- Keep the following points in mind with respect to the OWS system. Failure to follow these instructions could adversely affect the system's function and result in serious injury to the occupant of the front passenger's seat.
- The full weight of the front seat passenger should always be on the seat cushion. The passenger should never lift him/herself off the seat cushion using the armrest in the door or the center console, by pressing the feet on the floor, by sitting on the edge of the seat cushion, or by pressing against the backrest in a way that reduces pressure on the seat cushion. This could cause OWS to disable the front, passenger's side airbag.

WARNING
- Do not place any type of object on the front passenger's seat in such a way that jamming, pressing, or squeezing occurs between the object and the front seat, other than as a direct result of the correct use of the Automatic Locking Retractor/Emergency Locking Retractor (ALR/ELR) seat belt.
- No objects should be placed under the front passenger's seat. This could interfere with the OWS system's function.

• Driver/passenger side front airbags (p. 56)
Side airbags
The side airbags, on the driver's and passenger sides, protect the chest and hip in a collision.

natural_image
Interior view of a car showing a person seated inside the seat with a red cushioned seat highlighted (no text or symbols visible)The side airbags are located in the front seats' outer backrest frames and help protect the driver and front seat passenger.
A collision of a sufficiently violent force will trigger the sensors and one or more side airbags will inflate. The side airbags inflate between the seat occupant and the door panel to help cushion the initial impact of the collision. The airbag deflates when compressed by the collision. The side airbags are normally only deployed on the side of the vehicle impacted by the collision.

WARNING
Volvo recommends contacting an authorized Volvo workshop for repairs. Incorrectly performed repairs to the side airbag system could impair function and lead to serious injury.

WARNING
Do not place any objects in the area between the outer edges of the seats and the door panels, as this could impair the function of the side airbags.
Volvo recommends only using seat covers approved by Volvo. Other seat covers could prevent the side airbags from functioning properly.

WARNING
The side airbag is a supplement to the seat belt. Always wear your seat belt.

A collision of a sufficiently violent force will trigger the sensors and the inflatable curtain will inflate.

WARNING
Volvo recommends contacting an authorized Volvo workshop for repair. Incorrectly performed repairs to the inflatable curtain system could impair function and lead to serious injury.

WARNING
Never hang or attach heavy objects in the handle in the ceiling. The hooks are only intended for lightweight garments (not for hard objects such as umbrellas).
Never screw or mount anything to the vehicle's headlining, door pillars or side panels. This could impair the intended protective properties. Volvo recommends only using Volvo original parts that are approved for placement in these areas.

WARNING
If objects are loaded higher than the upper edge of the side windows, leave a 10 cm (4 in.) space between the objects and the window. Objects placed closer to this could impede the function of the inflatable curtain concealed inside the headlining.

WARNING
The inflatable curtain is a supplement to the seat belt. Always wear your seat belt.

SAFETY
Child safety
Children should always be seated safely when traveling in the vehicle.
General information
Volvo recommends the proper use of restraint systems for all occupants including children. Remember that, regardless of age and size, a child should always be properly restrained in a vehicle.
Your vehicle is also equipped with ISOFIX/LATCH attachments, which make it more convenient to install child seats.
Some restraint systems for children are designed to be secured in the vehicle by lap belts or the lap portion of a lap-shoulder belt. Such child restraint systems can help protect children in vehicles in the event of an accident only if they are used properly. However, children could be endangered in a crash if the child restraints are not properly secured in the vehicle. Failure to follow the installation instructions for your child restraint can result in your child striking the vehicle's interior in a sudden stop.
Holding a child in your arms is NOT a suitable substitute for a child restraint system. In an accident, a child held in a person's arms can be crushed between the vehicle's interior and an unrestrained person. The child could also be injured by striking the interior, or by being ejected from the vehicle during a sudden maneuver or impact. The same can also happen if the infant or child rides unrestrained on the seat. Other occupants should also be properly restrained to help reduce the chance of injuring or increasing the injury of a child.
All states and provinces have legislation governing how and where children should be carried in a vehicle. Find out the regulations existing in your state or province. Recent accident statistics have shown that children are safer in rear seating positions than front seating positions when properly restrained. A child restraint system can help protect a child in a vehicle. Here's what to look for when selecting a child restraint system:
It should have a label certifying that it meets applicable Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS 213) - or in Canada, CMVSS 213.
Make sure the child restraint system is approved for the child's height, weight and development - the label required by the standard or regulation, or instructions for infant restraints, typically provide this information.
In using any child restraint system, we urge you to carefully look over the instructions that are provided with the restraint. Be sure you understand them and can use the device properly and safely in this vehicle. A misused child restraint system can result in increased injuries for both the infant or child and other occupants in the vehicle.
When a child has outgrown the child safety seat, you should use the rear seat with the standard seat belt fastened. The best way to help protect the child here is to place the child on a cushion so that the seat belt is properly located on the hips. Legislation in your state or province may mandate the use of a child seat or cushion in combination with the seat belt, depending on the child's age and/or size. Please check local regulations.
A specially designed and tested booster cushion and backrest can be obtained from your Volvo retailer. See also the article "Integrated booster cushion."

natural_image

WARNING
- Do not use child safety seats or child booster cushions/backrests in the front passenger's seat. We also recommend that children under 140 cm (4 feet 7 inches) in height who have outgrown these devices sit in the rear seat with the seat belt fastened.
- Sedan models: Keep vehicle doors and trunk locked and keep remote controls out of a child's reach. Unsupervised children could lock themselves in an open trunk and risk injury. Children should be taught not to play in vehicles.
- On hot days, the temperature in the vehicle interior can rise very quickly. Exposure to these high temperatures for even a short period of time can cause heat-related injury or death. Small children are particularly at risk. Never leave children unattended in a vehicle.
Child seats should always be registered.
Volvo's recommendations
Why does Volvo believe that no child should sit in the front seat of a vehicle? It's quite simple really. A front airbag is a very powerful
device designed, by law, to help protect an adult.
Because of the size of the airbag and its speed of inflation, a child should never be placed in the front seat, even if he or she is properly belted or strapped into a child safety seat. Volvo has been an innovator in the field of safety since it was founded. And we have no intention of resting on our laurels. But we need your help. Please remember to put your children in the back seat, and buckle them up.

WARNING
A child restraint should never be reused if:
- The vehicle has been involved in a collision, no matter how minor
- Its history is unknown
- It is older than the manufacturer's expiration date
Volvo has some very specific recommendations
• Always wear your seat belt.
- Airbags are a SUPPLEMENTAL safety device which, when used with a three-point seat belt can help reduce serious injuries during certain types of accidents. Volvo recommends that you do not disconnect the airbag system in your vehicle,
- Volvo strongly recommends that everyone in the vehicle be properly restrained.
- Volvo recommends that ALL occupants (adults and children) shorter than 140 cm (4 feet 7 inches) be seated in the rear seat of any vehicle with a front passenger side airbag.
- Drive safely!

WARNING
A child seat should never be used in the front passenger seat of any vehicle with a front passenger airbag - not even if the "Passenger airbag off" symbol near the rear-view mirror is illuminated. If the severity of an accident were to cause the airbag to inflate, this could lead to serious injury or death to a child seated in this position.

natural_image
3D illustration of a person seated in a car seat with a red seatbelt, no text or symbols presentBooster cushion
WARNING
Always refer to the child restraint manufacturer's instructions for detailed information on securing the restraint.

WARNING
- When not in use, keep the child restraint system secured or remove it from the passenger compartment to help prevent it from injuring passengers in the event of a sudden stop or collision.
- A small child's head represents a considerable part of its total weight and its neck is still very weak. Volvo recommends that children up to age 4 travel, properly restrained, facing rearward. In addition, Volvo recommends that children should ride rearward facing, properly restrained, as long as possible.

NOTE
Prolonged installation and use of the child restraint may damage the vehicle's interior. Volvo recommends using the kick guard accessory to help protect the vehicle's interior.
Automatic Locking Retractor/ Emergency Locking Retractor (ALR/ ELR)
To make child seat installation easier, each seat belt (except for the driver's belt) is equipped with a locking mechanism to help keep the seat belt taut.
When attaching the seat belt to a child seat:
- Attach the seat belt to the child seat according to the child seat manufacturer's instructions.
- Pull the seat belt out as far as possible.
- Insert the seat belt latch plate into the buckle (lock) in the usual way.
- Release the seat belt and pull it taut around the child seat.
A sound from the seat belt retractor will be audible at this time and is normal. The belt will now be locked in place. This function is automatically disabled when the seat belt is unlocked and the belt is fully retracted.

WARNING
Do not use child safety seats or child booster cushions/backrests in the front passenger's seat. We also recommend that children who have outgrown these devices sit in the rear seat with the seat belt properly fastened.
Child restraint registration and recalls
Child restraints could be recalled for safety reasons. You must register your child restraint to be reached in a recall. To stay informed about child safety seat recalls, be sure to fill
out and return the registration card that comes with new child restraints.
Child restraint recall information is readily available in both the U.S. and Canada. For recall information in the U.S., call the U.S. Government's Auto Safety Hotline at 1-800-424-9393 or go to http://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/cars/problems/recalls/register/childseat/index.cfm.

SAFETY
Securing a child seat
- Place the child restraint on the rear seat.
- Route the top tether strap under the head restraint and attach it to the anchor.
- Attach the strap for the lower tether anchors in the lower ISOFIX/LATCH attachment points. If the child restraint is not equipped with straps for the lower tether anchors, or if the child restraint is used on the center seating position, follow the instructions for attaching a child restraint using the automatic locking seat belt.
- Firmly tension all straps.
Refer also to the child seat manufacturer's instructions for information on securing the child seat.
WARNING
- Always refer to the recommendations made by the child restraint manufacturer.
- Volvo recommends that the top tether anchors be used when installing a forward-facing child restraint.
- Never route a top tether strap over the top of the head restraint. The strap should be routed beneath the head restraint.
- Child restraint anchorages are designed to withstand only those loads imposed by correctly fitted child restraints. Under no circumstances are they to be used for adult seat belts or harnesses. The anchorages are not able to withstand excessive forces on them in the event of collision if full harness seat belts or adult seat belts are installed to them. An adult who uses a belt anchored in a child restraint anchorage runs a great risk of suffering severe injuries should a collision occur.
- Do not install rear speakers that require the removal of the top tether anchors or interfere with the proper use of the top tether strap.

Example of trip computer information in an 8-inch instrument panel. The illustration is generic - details may vary according to vehicle model.
The trip computer includes the following gauges:
- Trip odometer
- Odometer
• Current fuel consumption
• Distance to empty tank
• Tourist - alternative speedometer
Unit standards for distance, speed, etc. can be changed via system settings in the center display.
Trip odometer
There are two trip odometers: TM and TA.
TM can be reset manually and TA is reset automatically if the vehicle is not used for four hours.
During a drive, the trip odometer registers data on:
- Mileage
- Driving time
- Average speed
• Average fuel consumption
The readings since the trip odometer's last reset are displayed.
Odometer
The odometer records the vehicle's total mileage. This reading cannot be reset.
Current fuel consumption
This gauge shows the vehicle's fuel consumption at that moment. The reading is updated about once a second.
Distance to empty tank

The trip computer calculates the distance that can be driven on the fuel remaining in the tank.
This calculation is based on average fuel consumption during the last 30 km (20 miles) and the amount of fuel remaining in the tank.
When the gauge displays "----", there is not enough fuel remaining to calculate the remaining mileage. Refuel as soon as possible.

NOTE
The information will change based on your driving style.
An economical driving style will generally increase how far you can drive on a certain amount of fuel.
Tourist - alternative speedometer
The alternative digital speedometer makes it easier to drive in countries where speed limit signs are shown in a different measurement unit than the one shown in the vehicle's gauges.
When used, the digital speed is displayed in the opposite unit to that shown in the analog speedometer. If mph is used in the analog speedometer, the equivalent speed in km/h will be shown in the digital speedometer.

Driver profiles
Many of the vehicle's settings can be customized to the driver's personal preferences and saved in one or more driver profiles. These personal settings are automatically saved in the active driver profile. Each key can be linked to one driver profile. When the linked key is used, the vehicle is customized to the specific settings of that driver profile.
Which settings are saved in driver profiles?
Many of the settings made in the vehicle will be automatically stored in the active driver profile if the profile is not protected. The vehicle has settings that can be made either personal or global. The personal settings are saved in driver profiles.
Settings that can be saved in a driver profile include, among other things, screens, mirrors, front seats, navigation*, audio and media system, language and voice control.
Some settings are global settings. These settings can be changed but are not saved to a specific driver profile. Changes to global settings affect all profiles.
Global settings
Global settings do not change when driver profiles are changed. They remain the same regardless of which driver profile is currently active.
Keyboard layout is an example of a global setting. If driver profile X is used to add additional keyboard languages, these languages will also be available for driver profile Y. The settings for keyboard layout are not saved to a specific driver profile - the settings are global.
Personal settings
If driver profile X has been used to e.g., set the brightness for the center display, driver profile Y will not be affected by this setting. It will only be saved to driver profile X because brightness setting is a personal setting.

It works in general like a regular application in which you input information in a set order in order to perform a task, but instead of typing on a keypad, you use voice commands. It can therefore be a good idea to familiarize yourself with how, and in what order, a voice command should be spoken to get the desired result.
You can control certain infotainment and climate control functions through the voice control system by using voice commands. The system can respond verbally and by displaying information in the instrument panel.

WARNING
The driver is always responsible for ensuring that the vehicle is operated in a safe manner and that all applicable traffic regulations are followed.

Starting voice control 18

Voice commands are given through a "dialog" with the voice control system. Press the button for voice control
on the right-side steering wheel keypad to activate the system and initiate a voice
command dialog. When you press the button, a beep will sound and the voice control symbol will appear in the instrument panel.
This shows that the system has begun listening and you can now begin speaking commands. As soon as you start speaking, the system will be trained to recognize and understand your voice. This takes several seconds and is done automatically, which means that you don't need to manually initiate any voice training.
These may include:
- Wait until after the tone, and then speak in your normal voice at a normal speed.
- Do not speak while the system is responding (the system is unable to process commands during this time).
- Avoid background noises in the passenger compartment by keeping doors, windows and the panoramic roof* closed.

NOTE
Not all system languages support voice control. If a language supports voice control, it is marked with a symbol in the list of available system languages. Read more about where the information is found in the section on voice control settings.
Generally, the system will listen for a basic command that is then followed by more detailed commands specifying what you want the system to do.
To change the audio volume of the system, turn the volume knob while the voice is speaking. It is possible to use other buttons while voice commands are being given. However, because other audio is silenced during dialog with the system, it is not possible to perform
any functions connected to audio using the buttons.
Canceling voice control
To cancel voice control, do one of the following:
- Briefly press 📊 and say "Cancel".
- Press and hold the steering wheel keypad's voice command button until two audible signals are given. This cancels voice control even when the system is speaking.
Voice control will also be canceled if you do not respond during a dialog. The system will first ask three times for a response and if the response is still not given, voice control will be automatically canceled.
To speed up communication and skip prompts from the system, press the voice control button on the steering wheel keypad. This will interrupt the system's response and you can say the next command.
Voice command examples
-
Tap 昭
-
Say "Call [First name] [Last name] [number category]", e.g. "Call Robyn Smith cellular".
The system will call the selected contact from the phone book. If the contact has several phone numbers (e.g. home, cell, work), the right category must also be given.
Commands/phrases
The following commands can usually be used in any situation:
- "Repeat" - repeats the most recent voice command in the current dialog.
- "Cancel" - cancels the dialog. 19
- "Help" - initiates a help dialog. The system responds with commands that can be used in the current situation, an instruction or an example.
Commands for specific functions, such as phone and audio, are described in the sections related to that function.
Numbers
Number commands can be given in different ways depending on the function to be controlled:
- Phone numbers and zip codes should be given by stating each number individually, e.g. "zero, three, one, two, two, four, four, three" (03122443).
- Addresses can be given by stating each number individually or in a group, e.g. "two, two" or "twenty-two" (22). For English and Dutch language settings, groups of numbers can also be said in sequence, e.g. "twenty-two, twenty-two" (22 22). For English, double or triple digits can also be used, e.g. "double zero" (00). Numbers in the range 0-2300 can be used.
- Frequencies can be given as "ninety-eight point eight" (98.8), "one hundred four point two" or "hundred and four point two" (104.2).
Speech rate and repeat mode
The speed at which the system speaks can be adjusted.
With repeat mode on, the system will repeat what you have said.
To change the speech rate or activate/deactivate repeat mode:
-
Tap Settings in the Top view.
-
Tap System Voice Control and select settings.

Pinch protection for windows and sun curtains
All power windows and sun curtains* have a pinch protection function that is triggered if anything blocks them while they are opening or closing.
If pinch protection is activated, movement will stop and then retract automatically to approx. 50 mm (2 inches) from the point at which it was blocked (or to full ventilation position).
It is still possible to override pinch protection when closing is interrupted (e.g. due to ice) by pressing and holding down the control in the same direction.
If there is any problem with the pinch protection, a rest procedure can be tested.

WARNING
If the starter battery is disconnected, the function for automatic opening and closing must be reset to function correctly. A reset is required in order for the pinch protection to work.

Adjusting the rearview mirror dimming function
Bright light entering the vehicle from behind, e.g., from the headlights of following vehicles, could reflect in the rearview mirror and door mirrors and cause a glare. Use the dimming function when light from behind is distracting.
Auto-dim
If bright light enters the vehicle from behind, the door mirrors will automatically dim when it is dark outside or when lighting conditions are low, for example when driving in tunnels. Auto-dim is always active when the engine is running, except when reverse gear is engaged.

NOTE
Adjustments to the sensitivity level will not be noticeable immediately but will instead take effect after a short period of time.
The sensitivity level for dimming will affect both the rearview mirror and door mirrors.
To change the dimming sensitivity level:
-
Tap Settings in the Top view in the center display.
-
Tap My Car Mirrors and Convenience.
-
Under Rearview Mirror Auto Dimming, select Normal, Dark or Light.
The rearview mirror has two sensors - one pointing forward and one pointing rearward - which work together to identify and eliminate glare. The forward-pointing sensor monitors ambient light, while the rearward-pointing sensor monitors light from the headlights of following vehicles.
For the door mirrors to be equipped with auto-dim, the rearview mirror must also be equipped with auto-dim.

NOTE
If the sensors are obstructed by e.g. a parking permit, transponder, sunshade or objects on the seats or parcel shelf in a way that prevents light from reaching the sensors, the auto-dim function in the rearview and door mirrors will be reduced.

Speed-dependent steering wheel resistance
Speed-dependent power steering increases the steering wheel resistance in pace with the vehicle's speed, which can help give the driver an enhanced feeling of control and stability. Steering is stiffer on highways. When parking and at low speeds, it will be easier to move the steering wheel.
Reduced power
In rare situations, the power steering may need to work at reduced power and the steering wheel may then feel more difficult to move. This may happen when the power steering becomes too hot and needs to be temporarily cooled. It can also happen if there is a disturbance in power supply.

If there is reduced power, the message Power steering Assistance temporarily reduced and this symbol are shown in the instrument panel.
While the power steering is working at reduced power, the driver support functions and systems with steering assistance are not available.

WARNING
If the temperature rises too high, the power steering may be forced to switch off completely. In such a situation, the driver display shows the message Power steering failure Stop safely along with a symbol.
Changing the level of steering wheel resistance\*
In INDIVIDUAL drive mode, the level of steering wheel resistance can be adjusted.
- Tap Settings in the center display's Top view.
- Select My Car Drive Modes → Steering Force.
Steering wheel resistance settings can only be accessed if the vehicle is stationary or is moving straight ahead at a low speed.

WARNING
- The function is supplementary driver support intended to facilitate driving and help make it safer – it cannot handle all situations in all traffic, weather and road conditions.
- The driver is advised to read all sections in the Owner's Manual about this function to learn of its limitations, which the driver must be aware of before using the function.
- Driver support functions are not a substitute for the driver's attention and judgment. The driver is always responsible for ensuring the vehicle is driven in a safe manner, at the appropriate speed, with an appropriate distance to other vehicles, and in accordance with current traffic rules and regulations.
Using engine braking instead of applying the brakes
Cruise Control regulates speed by lightly applying the brakes. On downgrades, it can sometimes be desirable to roll a bit faster and let speed be reduced instead by engine braking alone. The driver can temporarily disengage the Cruise Control braking function.
To disengage CC:
- Press the accelerator pedal about halfway down and then release it.
Cruise Control will automatically disengage the automatic brake function and speed will only be reduced using the engine braking function.

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC 33 ) can help the driver to maintain a constant speed, combined with a preset time interval to the vehicle in front.

natural_image
Top-down view of a car with sensor waves and a close-up of its roof panel (no text or symbols visible)The camera/radar sensor measures the distance to the vehicle ahead.
Adaptive Cruise Control can help provide a more relaxed driving experience on long trips on highways or long, straight roads with even traffic flows.
The driver sets a speed and a time interval to the vehicle ahead. If the camera/radar sensor detects a slower-moving vehicle ahead, your vehicle's speed will be automatically adapted according to the set time interval to that vehi-
cle. When there are no longer slower-moving vehicles ahead, the vehicle will return to the set speed.
If the Curve Speed Assist (CSA)* function is activated, it may also affect the vehicle's speed.
Adaptive Cruise Control is designed to:
- smoothly regulate speed. The driver must apply the brakes in situations requiring immediate braking. For example, when there are great differences in speed between vehicles or if the vehicle ahead brakes suddenly. Due to limitations in the radar sensor, braking may occur unexpectedly or not at all.
- follow a vehicle ahead in the same lane and maintain a time interval to that vehicle set by the driver. If the radar sensor does not detect a vehicle ahead, it will instead maintain the speed set by the driver. This will also happen if the speed of the vehicle ahead exceeds the set speed for your vehicle.
WARNING
- The function is supplementary driver support intended to facilitate driving and help make it safer – it cannot handle all situations in all traffic, weather and road conditions.
- The driver is advised to read all sections in the Owner's Manual about this function to learn of its limitations, which the driver must be aware of before using the function.

Pilot Assist\*53
Pilot Assist can help the driver keep the vehicle in the current traffic lane and maintain an even speed and a set time interval to the vehicle ahead.
Get to know Pilot Assist

The camera/radar sensor monitors the distance to the vehicle ahead and detects lane markings.
1 Camera and radar sensor
② Distance monitor
3 Lane marker line monitors
Pilot Assist helps to steer the vehicle, and you may need to drive a few miles with Pilot Assist before you feel completely at home with the function. It is important to be familiar with all
of the function's applications and limitations in order to take advantage of all it has to offer.
The Pilot Assist function is primarily intended for use on highways and other major roads where it can help provide a more comfortable and relaxing driving experience.
The driver sets the desired speed and distance to the vehicle ahead. Pilot Assist monitors the distance to the vehicle ahead and the traffic lane's side markers using the camera. The system maintains the set time interval to the vehicle ahead by automatically adjusting your vehicle's speed and keeps your vehicle in its lane by providing steering assistance.
If the Curve Speed Assist (CSA)* function is activated, it may also affect the vehicle's speed.
Pilot Assist regulates speed by accelerating and braking. It is normal for the brakes to emit a slight sound when they are being used to adjust speed.
Pilot Assist is designed to:
- smoothly regulate speed. The driver must apply the brakes in situations requiring immediate braking. For example, when there are great differences in speed between vehicles or if the vehicle ahead brakes suddenly. Due to limitations in the
camera and radar sensor, braking may occur unexpectedly or not at all.
- follow a vehicle ahead in the same lane and maintain a time interval to that vehicle set by the driver. If the radar sensor does not detect a vehicle ahead, it will instead maintain the speed set by the driver. This will also happen if the speed of the vehicle ahead exceeds the set speed for your vehicle.
The vehicle's position in the traffic lane
When Pilot Assist helps to steer, it attempts to position the vehicle halfway between the visible lane marking lines. For a smoother drive, it is a good idea to allow the vehicle to find a good position. The driver can always adjust the position him/herself by increasing steering input. It is important for the driver to make sure the vehicle is positioned safely in the lane.
If Pilot Assist does not position the vehicle appropriately in the lane, the driver should turn off Pilot Assist or switch to Adaptive Cruise Control*.
Steering assistance

The color of the steering wheel symbol indicates the current status of steering assistance:
- GREEN indicates that steering assistance is active
- GRAY (as shown in illustration) indicates that steering assistance is deactivated.
Pilot Assist's steering assistance is based on monitoring the direction of the vehicle ahead and the traffic lane's side marker lines. The driver can override Pilot Assist's steering recommendations at any time and steer in another direction, e.g. to change lanes or avoid obstacles on the road.
If the camera/radar sensor cannot detect the lane's side marker lines or if Pilot Assist is unable for some other reason to clearly interpret the lane, Pilot Assist will temporarily deactivate steering assistance until it can once again interpret the lane markings. However, the speed and distance warnings will remain active. The driver will be alerted by slight vibrations in the steering wheel that the function has been temporarily deactivated.
WARNING
Pilot Assist is deactivated automatically and resumes working without prior notice.
In curves and forks in the road
Pilot Assist is designed to interact with the driver. The driver should never wait for steering assistance from Pilot Assist, but instead should always be ready to increase his or her own steering efforts, particularly in curves.
When the vehicle is approaching an off-ramp or a fork in the road, the driver should steer toward the desired lane so that Pilot Assist can detect the desired direction of travel.
Hands on the steering wheel
Pilot Assist only functions if the driver's hands are on the steering wheel. It is also important for the driver to always continue to be active and alert when driving since Pilot Assist is unable to read all situations and may toggle between off and on without prior warning.

If Pilot Assist detects that the driver's hands are not on the steering wheel, the system will provide a symbol and a text message in the instrument panel to instruct the driver to actively steer the
vehicle.
If the driver's hands are still detected on the steering wheel after a few seconds have passed, the instructions to actively steer the vehicle will be repeated, accompanied by an audible signal.
If Pilot Assist still does not detect the driver's hands on the steering wheel after a few more seconds have passed, the audible signal will become intense and the steering function will switch off. Pilot Assist must then be reactivated by pressing the ⏻ button on the steering wheel.
WARNING
- The function is supplementary driver support intended to facilitate driving and help make it safer – it cannot handle all situations in all traffic, weather and road conditions.
- The driver is advised to read all sections in the Owner's Manual about this function to learn of its limitations, which the driver must be aware of before using the function.
- Driver support functions are not a substitute for the driver's attention and judgment. The driver is always responsible for ensuring the vehicle is driven in a safe manner, at the appropriate speed, with an appropriate distance to other vehicles, and in accordance with current traffic rules and regulations.

DRIVER SUPPORT
Pilot Assist\*62 limitations
Pilot Assist functionality may be reduced in certain situations.
Pilot Assist is a driver support function designed to simplify driving and assist the driver in many situations. However, the driver is always responsible for maintaining a suitable distance to vehicles or objects around it and ensuring that the vehicle is correctly positioned in the traffic lane.
WARNING
In some situations, Pilot Assist may have trouble helping the driver properly or may be deactivated automatically – we advise against using Pilot Assist in such cases. Examples of such situations include:
- the lane markings are unclear, worn, missing, cross each other, or there are multiple sets of road markings.
- the lane division changes, e.g. when lanes split or merge, and at off-ramps.
- when there is road construction and sudden changes to the road surface, e.g. when the lines may no longer mark the correct route.
- edges or other lines than lane markings are present on or near the road, e.g. curbs, joints or repairs to the road surface, edges of barriers, roadside edges or strong shadows.
• the lane is narrow or winding.
• the lane contains ridges or holes. - weather conditions are poor, e.g. rain, snow or fog or slush or reduced visibil-
ity with poor light conditions, back-lighting, wet road surface, etc.
The driver should also note that Pilot Assist has the following limitations:
- High curbs, roadside barriers, temporary obstacles (traffic cones, safety barriers, etc.) are not detected. Alternatively, they may be detected incorrectly as lane markings, with a subsequent risk of contact between the vehicle and such obstacles. The driver is responsible for ensuring that the vehicle maintains a suitable distance from such obstacles,
- The camera and radar sensors do not have the capacity to detect all oncoming objects and obstacles in traffic environments, e.g. potholes, stationary obstacles or objects that completely or partially block the route.
- Pilot Assist does not "see" pedestrians, animals, etc.
- The steering assistance is limited in force, which means that Pilot Assist cannot always help the driver to steer and keep the vehicle within the lane.
- In vehicles equipped with Sensus Navigation*, the function is able to use
information from map data, which could cause variations in performance.
- Pilot Assist will be switched off if the speed-dependent power steering wheel resistance is working at reduced power, e.g. during cooling due to overheating.
WARNING
Pilot Assist should only be used if there are clear lane lines painted on each side of the lane. All other use will increase the risk of contact with nearby obstacles that cannot be detected by the functions.
WARNING
- This is not a collision avoidance system. The driver is always responsible and must intervene if the system fails to detect a vehicle ahead.
- The function does not brake for people or animals and does not brake for small vehicles, such as bikes and motorcycles. Similarly, it does not brake for low trailers, oncoming, slow-moving or stationary vehicles and objects.
- Do not use the function in demanding situations, such as in city traffic, at intersections, on slippery surfaces, with a lot of water or slush on the road, in heavy rain/snow, in poor visibility, on winding roads, or on on/off ramps.
The driver can always correct or adjust steering assistance provided by Pilot Assist by turning the steering wheel to the desired position.
Steep roads and/or heavy loads
Pilot Assist is primarily intended to be driven on flat roads. The function may not be able to maintain the correct time interval to the vehicle ahead when driving down steep hills. The driver should be extra attentive and prepared to apply the brakes.
Do not use Pilot Assist if the vehicle is carrying a heavy load or towing a trailer.
NOTE
Pilot Assist cannot be activated if a trailer, bike carrier or similar is connected to the vehicle electrical system.
Drive mode unavailable
The Off Road drive mode cannot be selected when Pilot Assist is activated.
i NOTE
The function uses the vehicle's camera and radar sensor, which has certain general limitations.

DRIVER SUPPORT
Passing assistance\*
Passing assistance can assist the driver when passing other vehicles. The function can be used with Adaptive Cruise Control* or Pilot Assist*.
When Adaptive Cruise Control or Pilot Assist is following another vehicle and you indicate that you intend to pass that vehicle by using the turn signal 59 , the system will begin accelerating toward the vehicle ahead before your vehicle has moved into the passing lane.
The function will then delay a speed reduction to avoid early braking as your vehicle approaches a slower-moving vehicle.
The function remains active until your vehicle has passed the other vehicle.

WARNING
Please note that this function can be activated in more situations than just passing another vehicle, such as when a direction indicator is used to indicate a lane change or before exiting to another road – the vehicle will then briefly accelerate.

WARNING
- The function is supplementary driver support intended to facilitate driving and help make it safer – it cannot handle all situations in all traffic, weather and road conditions.
- The driver is advised to read all sections in the Owner's Manual about this function to learn of its limitations, which the driver must be aware of before using the function.
- Driver support functions are not a substitute for the driver's attention and judgment. The driver is always responsible for ensuring the vehicle is driven in a safe manner, at the appropriate speed, with an appropriate distance to other vehicles, and in accordance with current traffic rules and regulations.

• Adaptive Cruise Control* (p. 282)
- Pilot Assist* (p. 292)
Using passing assistance
Passing assistance can be used with Adaptive Cruise Control* or Pilot Assist*. Several conditions must be met for passing assistance to be possible.
In order to activate passing assistance:
- your vehicle must be following a vehicle ahead (target vehicle)
- your vehicle's current speed must be at least 70 km/h (43 mph)
- the set speed must be high enough to safely pass another vehicle.
To start passing assistance:
- Turn on the left turn signal.
Passing assistance will start.

WARNING
The driver should be aware that if conditions suddenly change when using Passing Assistance, the function may implement an undesired acceleration in certain conditions.
Some situations should be avoided, e.g. if:
- the vehicle is approaching an exit in the same direction as passing would normally occur
- the vehicle ahead slows before your vehicle has had time to switch to the passing lane
- traffic in the passing lane slows down Situations of this type can be avoided by temporarily putting Adaptive Cruise Control or Pilot Assist in standby mode.

Collision risk warning from driver support
The driver support systems Adaptive Cruise Control* and Pilot Assist* can help alert the driver if the distance to the vehicle ahead suddenly decreases to an unsafe distance.

Collision warning audible signal and symbol
1 Audible signal at risk of collision
② Collision warning symbol
3 Camera/radar sensor distance monitoring
Adaptive Cruise Control and Pilot Assist use approx. 40% of the braking capacity. If a situation requires more braking force than driver support can provide, and if the driver does not apply the brakes, a warning light and audible warning signal will be activated to alert the driver that immediate action is required.

WARNING
The driver support system only issues a warning for vehicles detected by its radar unit – thus, a warning may come after a delay or not at all. Never wait for a warning. Apply the brakes when necessary.

Switching target vehicles with driver support
At certain speeds, vehicles with automatic transmissions and the driver support functions Adaptive Cruise Control* and Pilot Assist* can switch target vehicles.
Switching target vehicles

natural_image
Top-down diagram of a car collision scenario showing two cars approaching each other with a red triangular incident light (no text or symbols)If the target vehicle ahead turns suddenly, there may be stationary traffic ahead.
When driver support is actively following another vehicle at speeds under 30 km/h (20 mph) and switches targets from a moving vehicle to a stationary vehicle, driver support will brake for the stationary vehicle.
WARNING
When driver support follows another vehicle at speeds over approx. 30 km/h (20 mph) and changes target vehicle – from a moving vehicle to a stationary one – driver support will ignore the stationary vehicle and instead accelerate to the stored speed.
- The driver must then intervene and apply the brakes.
Automatic standby mode when switching targets
Driver support disengages and goes into standby mode if:
- your vehicle's speed goes under 5 km/h (3 mph) and driver support cannot determine if the target vehicle is stationary or if it is another object, e.g. a speed bump.
- your vehicle's speed goes under 5 km/h (3 mph) and the vehicle ahead turns so that driver support no longer has a vehicle to follow.

Adjusting set speed for driver support
It is possible to adjust set speeds for the cruise control, Adaptive Cruise Control* and Pilot Assist* functions.

1 +: Increases the set speed
2 —: Reduces the set speed
3 Set speed
- Change a set speed by pressing the + (1) or (2) buttons briefly or by pressing and holding them:
- Brief press: Each press changes the speed in +/- 5 km/h (+/- 5 mph) increments.
- Press and hold: Release the button when the set speed indicator (3) has moved to the desired speed.
The most recently set speed will be stored.
i NOTE
For vehicles without Adaptive Cruise Control*, speed instead increases by +/- 1km/h (+/- 1 mph) each time the button is pressed.
Pressing the accelerator pedal
If speed is increased by depressing the accelerator pedal while pressing the + (1) button on the steering wheel, the vehicle's speed when the button is pressed will be stored as the set speed.
Temporarily increasing speed using the accelerator pedal, e.g. when passing another vehicle, will not affect the setting. The vehicle will return to the set speed when the accelerator pedal is released.
Possible speed
Automatic transmission
The driver support functions can follow another vehicle at speeds from a standstill up to 200 km/h (125 mph).
Pilot Assist can provide steering assistance from near-stationary speeds up to 140 km/h (87 mph).
The lowest speed that can be set is 30 km/h (20 mph). When following another vehicle, ACC can monitor that vehicle's speed and slow your own vehicle down to a standstill, but it is not possible to set speeds lower than 30 km/h (20 mph).

Setting time interval to the vehicle ahead
The time interval to the vehicle ahead can be set for the functions Adaptive Cruise Control*, Pilot Assist* and Distance Alert*.

Different time intervals to the vehicle ahead can be selected and are shown in the instrument panel as 1–5 horizontal bars. The more bars, the longer the time interval. One bar represents an interval of
approx. 1 second to the vehicle ahead. 5 bars represents approx. 3 seconds.

NOTE
When the symbol in the instrument panel shows a vehicle and a steering wheel, Pilot Assist follows a vehicle ahead at a preset time interval.
When only a steering wheel is shown, there is no vehicle ahead within a reasonable distance.
NOTE
When the symbol in the instrument panel shows two vehicles, Adaptive Cruise Control is following the vehicle ahead at a pre-set time interval.
When only one vehicle is shown, there is no vehicle ahead within a reasonable distance.

Controls for setting a time interval.
1 Reduce the time interval
2 Increase the time interval
3 Distance indicator
- Press the (1) or (2) button to decrease or increase the time interval.
The distance indicator (3) shows the current time interval.
In order to help your vehicle follow the vehicle ahead as smoothly and comfortably as possible, Adaptive Cruise Control allows the time interval to vary noticeably in certain situations. At low speeds, when the distance to the vehicle ahead is short, Adaptive Cruise Control increases the time interval slightly.

NOTE
- The greater the vehicles' speed, the greater the distance between them for a set time interval.
- Only use the time intervals permitted by local traffic regulations.
- If driver support does not seem to respond with a speed increase when activated, it may be because the time interval to the vehicle ahead is shorter than the set time interval.

WARNING
- Only use a time interval suitable for the current traffic conditions.
- The driver should be aware that short time intervals give them limited time to react and act to any unforeseen traffic situation.

City Safety™
City Safety 75 can alert the driver with light, sound and pulsations in the brake pedal to help the driver detect pedestrians, cyclists, large animals and vehicles.

Function overview
1 Audible signal at risk of collision
② Collision warning symbol
3 Camera/radar sensor distance monitoring
The function can help the driver avoid a collision in e.g. stop-and-go traffic, when changes in the traffic ahead and driver distraction could lead to an incident. City Safety activates a brief, forceful braking in an attempt to stop your vehicle immediately behind the vehicle or object ahead.
The function assists the driver by automatically applying the brakes if there is an imminent risk of a collision and the driver does not react in time by braking and/or steering away.
City Safety is activated in situations in which the driver should have applied the brakes much earlier, which means that the system will not be able to assist the driver in all situations. The function is designed to be activated as late as possible to help avoid unnecessary intervention. Automatic braking will only be applied after or during a collision warning.
Normally, the occupants of the vehicle will not be aware of City Safety except when the system intervenes when a collision is imminent.
WARNING
- The function is supplementary driver support intended to facilitate driving and help make it safer – it cannot handle all situations in all traffic, weather and road conditions.
- The driver is advised to read all sections in the Owner's Manual about this function to learn of its limitations, which the driver must be aware of before using the function.
- Driver support functions are not a substitute for the driver's attention and judgment. The driver is always responsible for ensuring the vehicle is driven in a safe manner, at the appropriate speed, with an appropriate distance to other vehicles, and in accordance with current traffic rules and regulations.

City Safety sub-functions
City Safety 76 can help prevent a collision or lower the vehicle's speed at the point of impact. The function consists of several sub-functions.
Ability to reduce speed
If the difference in speed between your vehicle and the obstacle is greater than the speeds specified below, the City Safety auto-brake function cannot prevent a collision, but it can help mitigate its effects.
Vehicles
City Safety can help prevent a collision with a vehicle ahead by reducing your vehicle's speed by up to 60 km/h (37 mph).
Cyclists
City Safety can help prevent a collision with a cyclist ahead by reducing your vehicle's speed by up to 50 km/h (30 mph).
Pedestrians
City Safety can help prevent a collision with a pedestrian ahead by reducing your vehicle's speed by up to 45 km/h (28 mph).
Large animals
If there is a risk of colliding with a large animal, City Safety can help reduce your vehicle's speed by up to 15 km/h (9 mph).
The braking function for large animals is primarily intended to mitigate the force of a collision at higher speeds. Braking is most effective at speeds above 70 km/h (43 mph) and less effective at lower speeds.
City Safety steps
City Safety carries out three steps in the following order:
- Collision warning
- Brake assistance
- Auto-brake
DRIVER SUPPORT
1 - Collision warning
The driver is first alerted to the risk of an imminent collision.
In vehicles equipped with a head-up display*, a flashing warning symbol will be displayed on the windshield.

natural_image

NOTE
Visual warnings on the windshield may be difficult to notice in cases of strong sunlight, reflections, extreme light contrasts, or if the driver is wearing sunglasses or is not looking straight ahead.
City Safety can detect pedestrians, cyclists or vehicles that are stationary, are moving in the same direction as your vehicle and are ahead of your vehicle. City Safety can also detect
pedestrians, cyclists or large animals that are crossing the road in front of your vehicle.
If there is a risk of a collision with a pedestrian, large animal, cyclist or another vehicle, the driver will be alerted with light, sound and pulsations in the brake pedal. At lower speeds, during hard braking or if the accelerator pedal is pressed, the brake pedal pulsation warning will not be given. The intensity of the brake pedal pulsations varies according to the vehicle's speed.
2 - Brake assistance
If the risk of a collision increases after the collision warning, brake support will be activated.
If the system determines that the pressure the driver is exerting on the brake pedal is insufficient to prevent the collision, brake support will increase pressure.
3 - Auto-brake
The automatic braking function is activated at the last moment.
If the driver has not taken evasive action by this stage and a collision is imminent, the automatic braking function will be triggered. This occurs whether or not the driver is pressing the brake pedal. Full braking force will be applied to reduce the speed at impact or reduced braking effect will be applied if this is sufficient to avoid the collision.
The seat belt tensioner may be activated when the automatic braking function is triggered.
In certain situations, auto-braking may begin with a limited braking force before applying full braking force.
If City Safety has prevented a collision, the vehicle will be kept at a standstill until the driver takes action. If the vehicle has slowed to avoid colliding with a slower-moving vehicle ahead, your speed will be reduced to that vehicle's speed.
Auto-braking can always be cancelled if the driver presses hard on the accelerator pedal.

NOTE
When City Safety activates the brakes, the brake lights come on.
When City Safety applies the brakes, a text message will appear in the instrument panel to notify the driver that the function is/was activated.

WARNING
City Safety may not be used to change how the driver operates the vehicle. The driver must not only rely on City Safety to brake the vehicle.

Setting a warning distance for City Safety
City Safety 77 is always active, but the function's warning distance can be adjusted.
NOTE
The City Safety function cannot be deactivated. It is activated automatically each time the engine/electric motor is started.
The alert distance determines the sensitivity of the system and regulates the distance at which the light, sound and brake pulsations will be activated.
To select warning distance:
- Select Settings By Car IntelliSafe in the center display's Top view.
- Under City Safety Warning, tap Late, Normal or Early to set the desired warning distance.
If the driver feels that the Early setting is giving too many warnings or finds them irritating, the Normal or Late warning distance settings can be selected instead.
If the driver feels that the warnings are too frequent and distracting, the warning distance can be reduced. This will reduce the total
number of warnings, but it will also result in City Safety providing warnings at a later stage.
The Late warning distance setting should therefore only be used in exceptional cases, such as when a more dynamic driving style is preferred.

WARNING
- No automatic system can guarantee 100% correct function in all situations. You should therefore never test use of City Safety in the direction of people, animals or vehicles – this could lead to severe damage, serious personal injury or even death.
- City Safety warns the driver if there is a risk of collision, but the function cannot reduce the driver's reaction time.
- Even if the warning distance has been set to Early, warnings may be perceived as late in certain situations – e.g. when there are large speed differences or if the vehicle ahead suddenly brakes heavily.
- With the warning distance set to Early, warnings come further in advance. This may cause the warnings to come more frequently than with warning distance Normal, but is recommended since it can make City Safety more effective.

Detecting obstacles with City Safety
City Safety 78 can help the driver detect other vehicles, cyclists, large animals and pedestrians.
Vehicles
City Safety can detect most vehicles that are stationary or are moving in the same direction as your vehicle. In some cases, it can also detect oncoming vehicles and crossing traffic.
For City Safety to be able to detect a vehicle in the dark, its headlights and taillights must be on and clearly visible.
Cyclists

natural_image
Silhouette illustration of a person riding a bicycle with a person standing beside it, no text or symbols present.Examples of what City Safety would interpret to be a cyclist: clear body and bicycle shapes.
For good performance, the system's function for cyclist detection needs the clearest possible information about the contours of the bicycle and of the cyclist's head, arm, shoulders, legs, torso and lower body in combination with normal human movements.
If large portions of the cyclist's body or the bicycle itself are not visible to the function's camera, it will not be able to detect a cyclist.
The system can only detect adult cyclists riding on bicycles intended for adults.

WARNING
City Safety is supplementary driver support, but it cannot detect all cyclists in all situations and, for example, cannot see:
• partially obscured cyclists.
• cyclists if the contrast to the cyclist's background is poor.
• cyclists in clothing that hides their body contour.
• bikes loaded with large objects.
Warnings and brake interventions may occur late or not at all. The driver is always responsible for ensuring that the vehicle is driven correctly and with a safety distance suitable for the speed.
DRIVER SUPPORT
Pedestrians

natural_image
Silhouettes of two human figures in walking and walking poses (no text or symbols)Examples of what the system considers to be a pedestrian: clear body contours.
For good performance, the system's function for pedestrian detection needs the clearest possible information about the contours of the pedestrian's head, arm, shoulders, legs, torso and lower body in combination with normal human movements.
In order to detect a pedestrian, there must be a contrast to the background, which could depend on clothing, weather conditions, etc. If there is little contrast, the person may be detected late or not at all, which may result in a delayed reaction from the system or no reaction at all.
City Safety can detect pedestrians even in dark conditions if they are illuminated by the vehicle's headlights.
WARNING
City Safety is supplementary driver support, but it cannot detect all pedestrians in all situations and, for example, cannot see:
- partially obscured pedestrians, people in clothing that hides their body contour or pedestrians shorter than 80 cm (32 in.).
• pedestrians if the contrast to the pedestrian's background is poor.
• pedestrians who are carrying large objects.
Warnings and brake interventions may occur late or not at all. The driver is always responsible for ensuring that the vehicle is driven correctly and with a safety distance suitable for the speed.
Large animals

natural_image

For good performance, the system's function for detecting large animals (e.g. moose, horses, etc.) needs the clearest possible information about body contours. This entails being able to detect the animal straight from the side in combination with normal movements for that animal.
If parts of the animal's body are not visible to the function's camera, the system will not be able to detect the animal.
City Safety can detect large animals even in dark conditions if they are illuminated by the vehicle's headlights.

WARNING
City Safety is supplementary driver support, but it cannot detect all large animals in all situations and, for example, cannot see:
• partially obscured larger animals.
- larger animals seen from the front or from behind.
• running or fast moving larger animals.
- larger animals if the contrast to the animal's background is poor.
• smaller animals such as cats and dogs.
Warnings and brake interventions may occur late or not at all. The driver is always responsible for ensuring that the vehicle is driven correctly and with a safety distance suitable for the speed.

City Safety in crossing traffic
City Safety 79 can assist the driver when turning into the path of an oncoming vehicle in an intersection.

① Sector in which City Safety can detect an oncoming vehicle in crossing traffic.
In order for City Safety to detect an oncoming vehicle in situations where there is a risk of a collision, that vehicle must be within the sector in which City Safety can analyze the situation.
The following criteria must also be met:
- your vehicle's speed must be at least 4 km/h (3 mph)
- your vehicle must be making a left turn
• the oncoming vehicle's headlights must be on
Related information
• City Safety™ (p. 319)
• City Safety limitations (p. 329)
DRIVER SUPPORT
Limitations of City Safety in crossing traffic
In certain situations, it may be difficult for City Safety to help the driver avoid a collision with crossing traffic.

For example:
- On slippery roads when Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is actively operating.
- If an approaching vehicle is detected at a late stage.
- If the oncoming vehicle is partially obstructed by another vehicle or object.
- If the oncoming vehicle's headlights are off.
- If the oncoming vehicle is moving erratically and e.g. suddenly changes lanes at a late stage.
i NOTE
The function uses the vehicle's camera and radar sensor, which has certain general limitations.

② Slow-moving/stationary vehicle or obstacle.
City Safety helps provide assistance by strengthening the driver's steering movements, but only if the driver has begun evasive action and the system detects that the driver's steering movements are not sufficient to avoid a collision.
The brake system is used simultaneously to further strengthen steering movements. The
function also helps stabilize the vehicle after it has passed the obstacle.
City Safety steering assistance can detect:
- vehicles
• cyclists
• pedestrians - large animals

City Safety steering assistance limitations during evasive maneuvers
City Safety steering assistance may have limited functionality in certain situations and not intervene, e.g.:
• at speeds outside the range of 50-100 km/h (30-62 mph)
• if the driver does not take evasive action
- if speed-dependent power steering wheel resistance is working at reduced power – e.g. during cooling due to overheating.
NOTE
The function uses the vehicle's camera and radar sensor, which has certain general limitations.

Automatic braking during delayed evasive maneuvers with City Safety
City Safety 80 can assist the driver by automatically braking the vehicle when it is not possible to avoid a collision by steering alone. City Safety assists the driver by periodically attempting to predict possible "escape routes" to the sides of the vehicle in the event a slow-moving or stationary vehicle were to be detected at a late stage.

② Slow-moving/stationary vehicles
DRIVER SUPPORT
City Safety will not intervene to automatically apply the brakes if it is possible for the driver to avoid a collision by steering the vehicle.
However, if City Safety determines that an evasive maneuver would not be possible due to traffic in the adjacent lane(s), the function can assist the driver by automatically starting to apply the brakes at an earlier stage.

City Safety braking for oncoming vehicles
City Safety can help you apply the brakes for an oncoming vehicle in your lane.
If an oncoming vehicle veers into your lane and a collision is unavoidable, City Safety can help reduce your vehicle's speed to attempt to mitigate the force of the collision.

1 Own vehicle
② Oncoming vehicles
The following criteria must be met for the function to work:
-
your vehicle's speed must be above 4 km/h (3 mph)
• the road must be straight -
your lane must have clear side lane markings
- your vehicle must be positioned straight in your lane
- the oncoming vehicle must be positioned within your vehicle's lane markings
- the oncoming vehicle's headlights must be on
- the function can only handle "front-to-front" collisions
- the function can only detect vehicles with four wheels.
WARNING
Warnings and brake interventions due to an imminent collision with an oncoming vehicle always come very late.
Related information
• City Safety™ (p. 319)
• City Safety limitations (p. 329)
City Safety limitations
City Safety 81 functionality may be reduced in certain situations.
Surroundings
Low objects
Hanging objects, such as flags for overhanging loads or accessories such as auxiliary lights or front protective grids that extend beyond the height of the hood, may limit City Safety functionality.
Slippery road conditions
The extended braking distance on slippery roads may reduce City Safety's capacity to help avoid a collision. In these types of situations, the Anti-lock Braking System and Electronic Stability Control (ESC 82 ) are designed for optimal braking power with maintained stability.
Backlighting
The visual warning signal in the windshield may be difficult to detect in bright sunlight, if there are reflections, or if the driver is wearing sunglasses or not looking straight ahead.
Heat
If the temperature in the passenger compartment is high due to e.g. bright sunlight, the visual warning signal in the windshield may be temporarily disabled.
Camera and radar sensor's field of vision
The camera's field of vision is limited and in certain situations, it may be unable to detect pedestrians, large animals, cyclists or vehicles, or it may detect them later than expected.
Vehicles that are dirty may be detected later than clean vehicles, and in dark conditions, motorcycles may be detected late or not at all. If a text message displayed in the instrument panel indicates that the camera or radar sensor is obstructed, it may be difficult for City Safety to detect pedestrians, large animals, cyclists, vehicles or lane markings in front of the vehicle. City Safety functionality may therefore be reduced.
Text messages may not be displayed for all situations in which the windshield sensors are blocked. The driver must therefore always keep the windshield in front of the camera/radar sensor clean.
CAUTION
Only a workshop may perform maintenance on driver support components – an authorized Volvo workshop is recommended.
Driver intervention
Backing up
City Safety is temporarily deactivated when the vehicle is backing up.
Low speed
City Safety is not activated at very low speeds under 4 km/h (3 mph). The system will therefore not intervene in situations in which your vehicle is approaching another vehicle very slowly, such as when parking.
Active driver
Action by the driver always has priority. City Safety will therefore not react or will react at a later stage with a warning or intervention in situations in which the driver is clearly steering and operating the accelerator pedal, even if a collision is unavoidable.
An active and aware driving style may therefore delay collision warnings and intervention in order to minimize unnecessary warnings.
DRIVER SUPPORT
Important warnings

WARNING
The driver support system only issues a warning for obstacles detected by its radar sensor – thus, a warning may come after a delay or not at all.
- Never wait for a warning or assistance. Apply the brakes when necessary.

WARNING
- Warnings and brake interventions can be triggered late or not at all if the traffic situation or external influences prevent the camera and radar unit from properly detecting pedestrians, cyclists, large animals or vehicles ahead of the vehicle.
- To be able to detect vehicles at night, its front and rear lights must work and illuminate clearly.
- The camera and radar unit have a limited range for pedestrians and cyclists – the system can provide effective warnings and brake interventions if the relative speed is lower than 50 km/h (30 mph). For stationary or slow-moving vehicles, warnings and brake interventions are effective at vehicle speeds of up to 70 km/h (43 mph). Speed reduction for large animals is less than 15 km/h (9 mph) and can be achieved at vehicle speeds over 70 km/h (43 mph). At lower speeds, the warning and brake intervention for large animals is less effective.
-
Warnings for stationary or slow-moving vehicles and large animals can be disengaged due to darkness or poor visibility.
-
Warnings and brake interventions for pedestrians and cyclists are disengaged at vehicle speeds over 80 km/h (50 mph).
- Do not place, affix or mount anything on the inside or outside of the windshield, or in front of or around the camera and radar unit – this could disrupt camera-based functions.
- Objects, snow, ice or dirt in the area of the camera sensor can reduce the function, disengage it completely or give an improper function response.

WARNING
- The City Safety auto-brake function can prevent a collision or reduce collision speed, but to ensure full brake performance the driver should always depress the brake pedal – even when the car auto-brakes.
- The warning and steering assistance are only activated if there is a high risk of collision – you must therefore never wait for the collision warning or City Safety to intervene.
- Warnings and brake interventions for pedestrians and cyclists are disengaged at vehicle speeds over 80 km/h (50 mph).
- City Safety does not activate auto-braking intervention during heavy acceleration.

Steering assistance at risk of collision
The Collision avoidance function can help the driver reduce the risk of the vehicle leaving its lane unintentionally and/or colliding with another vehicle or obstacle by actively steering the vehicle back into its lane and/or swerving.
The function consists of these subfunctions:
- Run-Off Mitigation with steering assistance
• Steering assistance during collision risks from oncoming traffic
• Steering assistance during collision risks from behind*
After the system has automatically intervened, this text message will appear in the instrument panel:
Collision avoidance – Automatic intervention

Run-Off Mitigation with steering assistance
Steering assistance has several sub-functions. Run-Off Mitigation with steering assistance can help the driver and reduce the risk of the vehicle inadvertently running off the road by actively steering the vehicle back onto the road.
This function has two activation levels for intervention:
• Steering assistance only
• Steering assistance with braking
Steering assistance only

Intervention with steering assistance
Steering assistance with braking

Intervention with steering assistance and braking
Braking intervention assists in situations where steering assistance alone is not sufficient. Braking force is automatically adapted according to the situation at the moment the vehicle begins to run off the road.
The function is active at speeds between 65-140 km/h (40-87 mph) on roads with clearly visible traffic lane markings/lines.
The system uses a camera to monitor the edges of the road and the painted side marker lines. If the vehicle is about to cross the edge of the road, the function will attempt to steer the vehicle back onto the road. If this is not sufficient to keep the vehicle on the road, the brakes will also be applied.
However, the function will not provide either steering assistance or braking if the turn signal is used. The function will also not be activated if it detects that the driver is actively operating the vehicle.

• for smaller vehicles such as motorcycles
- if more than half of your vehicle has moved into the adjacent lane
- on roads/lanes with indistinct or no side lane markings
• outside the speed range 60-140 km/h (37-87 mph)
- when speed-dependent power steering wheel resistance is working at reduced power – e.g. during cooling due to overheating.
Functionality may also be reduced in other situations, such as:
road work
• winter driving conditions
- narrow roads
• poor road surfaces
• a very sporty driving style
• bad weather with reduced visibility.
In these demanding driving conditions, the function may not be able to properly assist the driver. In these situations, it is recommended that it is turned off.

Rear Collision Warning\*85
The Rear Collision Warning 86 (RCW) function can help the driver avoid rear-end collisions from vehicles approaching from behind. The function can alert drivers of following vehicles of the risk of a collision by rapidly flashing the turn signals.
If, at a speed below 30 km/h (20 mph), the function detects that the vehicle is in danger of being hit from behind, the seat belt tensioners may tension the front seat belts. The Whiplash Protection System will also be activated in a collision.
Immediately before a collision from behind, the function may also activate the brakes in order to reduce the forward acceleration of the vehicle during the collision. However, the brakes will only be applied if your vehicle is stationary. The brakes will be immediately released if the accelerator pedal is depressed.
The function is automatically activated each time the engine is started.
WARNING
- The function is supplementary driver support intended to facilitate driving and help make it safer – it cannot handle all situations in all traffic, weather and road conditions.
- The driver is advised to read all sections in the Owner's Manual about this function to learn of its limitations, which the driver must be aware of before using the function.
- Driver support functions are not a substitute for the driver's attention and judgment.

BLIS\*
The BLIS 88 function is designed to help provide assistance in heavy traffic with several lanes moving in the same direction by helping the driver to detect the presence of vehicles in the "blind spot" area behind and to the side of the vehicle.

natural_image
Interior view of a car showing the side mirror and dashboard (no visible text or symbols)Location of BLIS indicator light
BLIS is a driver support system designed to alert the driver of:
• vehicles in your "blind spot"
- vehicles approaching rapidly in adjacent lanes.

BLIS overview
1 Blind spot zone
② Rapidly approaching vehicle zone
The system is designed to react to:
• vehicles passing your vehicle
- vehicles that are rapidly approaching your vehicle from behind.
When BLIS detects a vehicle in zone 1 or a rapidly approaching vehicle in zone 2, an indicator light will illuminate in the relevant rearview mirror and glow steadily. If the driver then uses the turn signal on the side in which the warning has been given, the indicator light will become brighter and begin flashing.
BLIS is active when your vehicle is traveling at a speed over 10 km/h (6 mph).
If a passing vehicle's speed is more than 15 km/h (9 mph) faster than your vehicle, BLIS will not react.

NOTE
The light illuminates on the side of the vehicle where the system has detected the vehicle. If the vehicle is passed on both sides simultaneously, both lights come on.

WARNING
- The function is supplementary driver support intended to facilitate driving and help make it safer – it cannot handle all situations in all traffic, weather and road conditions.
- The driver is advised to read all sections in the Owner's Manual about this function to learn of its limitations, which the driver must be aware of before using the function.

Driver Alert Control
The Driver Alert Control (DAC) function is designed to help alert the driver to erratic behavior, e.g. if the driver is distracted or showing signs of fatigue.
The objective of the function is to detect slowly deteriorating driving behavior and is primarily intended to be used on major roads. The function is not intended for use in city traffic.
DAC is activated when the vehicle's speed exceeds 65 km/h (40 mph) and remains active as long as speeds are above 60 km/h (37 mph).

If driving behavior becomes considerably erratic, the driver will be alerted by this symbol in the instrument panel, an audible signal and the message Time for a
break.
If the vehicle is equipped with Sensus Navigation* and the Rest Stop Guidance function is activated, suggestions will also be provided for suitable places to take a break.
The warning will be repeated after a short time if driving behavior does not improve.

WARNING
Driver Alert Control must not be used to extend a period of driving. The driver should plan in breaks at regular intervals and make sure they are well rested.

WARNING
An alarm from Driver Alert Control should be taken very seriously since a sleepy driver is often not aware of their own condition.
If the alarm sounds or you feel fatigued:
- Stop the vehicle safely as soon as possible and rest.
Studies have shown that it is just as dangerous to drive while tired as it is to drive under the influence of alcohol or other stimulants.

WARNING
- The function is supplementary driver support intended to facilitate driving and help make it safer – it cannot handle all situations in all traffic, weather and road conditions.
- The driver is advised to read all sections in the Owner's Manual about this function to learn of its limitations, which the driver must be aware of before using the function.

Driver Alert Control limitations
Driver Alert Control (DAC) functionality may be reduced in certain situations.
In certain situations, the system may provide a warning even if it has not detected a change in driving behavior, e.g.:
• in strong crosswinds
• on grooved road surfaces.

WARNING
In certain cases, driving behavior might not be affected despite the driver's fatigue – when using the Pilot Assist* function – resulting in the driver not getting a warning from DAC.
It is therefore very important to always stop and take a break at the slightest sign of fatigue, regardless of whether the function has issued a warning or not.

NOTE
The function uses the vehicle's camera and radar sensor, which has certain general limitations.

Cross Traffic Alert\*96
Cross Traffic Alert(CTA) is a supplementary driver support system to BLIS 97 that is intended to help the driver detect vehicles crossing behind the vehicle while backing up.
The auto-brake subfunction can help the driver stop the car if there is a risk of collision with an unobserved vehicle.

Examples of areas in which Cross Traffic Alert can help the driver detect obstacles while backing up.
The function is primarily designed to detect vehicles, but in certain cases can also detect pedestrians or smaller objects such as bicycles.
The function is only active when the vehicle is moving backward or reverse gear is engaged. If the function detects that something is approaching your vehicle from the side:
- an audible signal will sound from either the left or right speaker, depending on which side of your vehicle the object is approaching from.
- an icon will illuminate in the Park Assist System graphic on the screen.
- an icon will appear in the Park Assist Camera's Top view.

natural_image
Top-down view of a car inside a cylindrical vehicle (no visible text or symbols)Display view showing obstacle zones and sensor sectors.
The center display shows an overview of the vehicle in relation to objects that have been detected.
The marked sector indicates where the obstacle is located. The closer the vehicle symbol is to a marked sector forward/rearward, the closer the detected obstacle is to your vehicle.
The side sectors change color as the distance between the vehicle and an object decreases.
The audible signals will also speed up the closer the obstacle is to the vehicle. The volume of the audio system will be automatically lowered.
Audible signals for obstacles in front and to the sides of the vehicle are active when the vehicle is moving but will cease after the vehicle has been stationary for approx. 2 seconds. Audible signals for obstacles behind the vehicle will remain active even when the vehicle is stationary.
If a detected obstacle is within approx. 30 cm (1 ft) from the front or rear of the vehicle, the tone will become constant and the active sensor field closest to the vehicle symbol will be filled in.
At distances within approx. 25 cm (0.8 ft) from an obstacle to the sides of the vehicle, an rapid pulsing signal will be given and the active sector fields will change color from ORANGE to RED.
The volume of the Park Assist audible signals can be adjusted while the signal is being given using the >II knob or in the center display's Top view under Settings.
NOTE
Besides in the sector closest to the vehicle symbol, audible warnings are only provided for objects located directly in the vehicle's path.

Park Assist front, rear and sides\*
Park Assist (PAS 102 ) behaves differently depending on which part of the vehicle is approaching an obstacle.
Front camera

The warning signal has a continuous tone when the obstacle is less than approx. 30 cm (1 fl) from the vehicle.
The Park Assist system's front sensors are automatically activated when the engine is started. They are active at speeds below 10 km/h (6 mph).
The distance monitored extends approx. 80 cm (2.5 ft) in front of the vehicle.
NOTE
The Park Assist system is deactivated when the parking brake is used or when P is selected on vehicles with automatic transmission.
CAUTION
When installing auxiliary lights: Make sure these do not obscure the sensors – the auxiliary lights could be perceived as an obstacle.
Back

The warning signal has a continuous tone when the obstacle is less than approx. 30 cm (1 ft) from the vehicle.
DRIVER SUPPORT
The rear sensors will be activated if the vehicle begins rolling backward or if reverse gear is engaged.
The distance monitored extends approx. 1.5 meters (5 ft) behind the vehicle.
The Park Assist system's rear sensors will be automatically deactivated if the vehicle is backing up with a trailer connected to the vehicle's electrical system.

NOTE
When reversing with e.g. a trailer or bike carrier on the trailer hitch – without Volvo original trailer cables – the Parking Assist system may have to be turned off manually to prevent the sensors from reacting to these.
Side sensors

natural_image
Top-down view of a car with concentric fan-shaped ventilation system (no text or symbols)The warning signal will begin pulsating rapidly when the obstacle is less than approx. 25 cm (0.8 ft) from the vehicle.
Park Assist's side sensors are automatically activated when the engine is started. They are active at speeds below 10 km/h (6 mph).
The distance monitored is approx. 25 cm (0.8 ft) out from the sides.
The detection area of the side sensors increases significantly, however, when the steering angle of the front wheel increases and depending on the position of the steering wheel, obstacles up to approx. 90 cm (3 ft) diagonally behind or in front of the vehicle can be detected.

Park Assist limitations
Park Assist (PAS 104 ) may not be able to detect all conditions in all situations and functionality may therefore be limited in certain cases.
The driver should be aware of the following limitations for Park Assist:

WARNING
- The parking sensors have dead/blind spots where objects cannot be detected.
- Pay particular attention to people and animals near the vehicle.
- Bear in mind that the front end of the vehicle may swing out towards oncoming traffic during the parking maneuver.

WARNING

Be extra cautious when reversing if this symbol is shown when a trailer, bike carrier or similar is attached and electrically connected to the vehicle.
The symbol indicates that the rear parking assist sensors are deactivated and will not warn of any obstacles.

CAUTION
Objects such as chains, thin and glossy poles or low obstacles may end up in the "signal shadow" and then go temporarily undetected by the sensors – the pulsating tone may then unexpectedly stop instead of becoming a constant tone as expected.
The sensors cannot detect high objects, such as protruding ramps.
- In such situations, pay extra attention and maneuver/drive the vehicle very slowly or stop the current parking maneuver – there may be a high risk of damage to the vehicle or other objects since information from the sensors is not always reliable in such situations.

CAUTION
In some circumstances, the Park Assist System may produce false warnings due to external sound sources with the same ultrasonic frequencies as those the system works with.
Examples of such sources are horns, wet tires on asphalt, pneumatic brakes, exhaust noise from motorcycles, etc.

NOTE
When a trailer hitch is configured with the vehicle electrical system, the trailer hitch protrusion is included when the function measures the distance to objects behind the vehicle.

Park Assist Camera trajectory lines\*
The Park Assist Cameras (PAC 111 ) use trajectory lines and fields on the screen to indicate the vehicle's position in relation to its immediate surroundings.

Example of trajectory lines
The trajectory lines show the anticipated trajectory for the vehicle's outermost dimensions
based on the current position of the steering wheel and can help simplify parallel parking, backing into tight spaces or attaching a trailer.
The lines on the screen are projected as if they were painted lines on the ground behind the vehicle and are directly affected by the way in which the steering wheel is turned. This makes it possible for the driver to see path the vehicle will take, even if he/she turns the steering wheel.
These lines also indicate the outermost limits that any object (towbar, rearview mirrors, corners of the body, etc.) extends out from the vehicle.
NOTE
- When reversing with a trailer that is not electrically connected to the vehicle, the screen guide lines show the path the vehicle will take – not the trailer.
- The screen does not show guide lines when a trailer is electrically connected to the vehicle's electrical system.
- Guide lines are not shown when zooming in.
CAUTION
- Bear in mind that when the rearward camera view is selected, the screen only shows the area behind the vehicle – pay attention to the sides and front of the vehicle when steering while reversing.
- The same applies to the reverse – pay attention to what is happening with the rear parts of the vehicle when the front camera view is selected.
- Note that the guide lines show the shortest path – pay extra attention to ensure that the vehicle sides do not come in contact with/travel over anything when steering while driving forward or that the vehicle front moves toward/over anything when steering while reversing.
Trajectory lines in 360° view*

natural_image
Top-down view of a car on a road with red curved arrows indicating motion or navigation (no text or symbols visible)360° view with trajectory lines
In the 360° view, trajectory lines are shown behind, in front of, or to the sides of the vehicle, depending on the direction of travel.
- When driving forward: Front lines
- When backing up: Side lines and rear lines When the front or rear camera is selected, the trajectory lines will be shown regardless of the vehicle's direction of travel.
With a side camera selected, the trajectory lines will only be shown if the vehicle is backing up.

Using Park Assist Pilot\*
Park Assist Pilot (PAP119) helps the driver park using three different steps. The function can also help the driver pull out of a parking space.
The function measures the space and steers the vehicle. The driver's role is to:
- keep close watch of the area around the vehicle
- follow the instructions on the center display
- change gears (reverse/forward) – an audible signal indicates when the driver needs to change gears
• regulating and maintaining a safe speed - applying the brakes and stopping the vehicle.
Information about the actions required by the driver are provided in the center display using symbols, graphics and/or text.
The function can be activated if the following criteria have been met after the engine is started:
• No trailer is hitched to the vehicle
- Your vehicle's speed is lower than 30 km/h (20 mph).
i NOTE
The distance between the vehicle and parking spots should be 0.5–1.5 meters (1.6–5.0 ft) when the function is looking for parking.
Parking with Park Assist Pilot
The function helps park the vehicle using the following steps:
- The system searches for and measures potential parking spaces.
- The vehicle is steered while it is backing into the parking space.
- The vehicle is positioned in the parking space (the driver may be prompted to shift gears and apply the brakes).
Searching and measuring potential parking spots

The function can be activated in the center display's Function view.

DRIVER SUPPORT
Leaving a parallel parking space with Park Assist Pilot\*
The Park Out function can help the driver to pull out of a parking space when the vehicle is parallel-parked.

NOTE
Leaving a parking space with the Park Out function should only be used in connection with parallel parking – it does not work for perpendicular parking.

The Park Out function is activated in the center display's Function view or in Camera view.
- GREEN button indicator light – the function is activated.
- GRAY button indicator light – the function is deactivated.
- Tap Park Out in Function view or in Camera view.
-
Move the gear selector to the suitable position (e.g. D or R) for the direction in which you will be pulling out of the parking space.
-
Be prepared to stop the vehicle when instructed to do so by a graphic and message in the center display. Follow the instructions in the same way as for the parking procedure.
Note that the steering wheel can "spring" back when the procedure is completed and the driver may need to turn the steering wheel back to the maximum position in order to pull out of the parking space.
If the function determines that the driver can pull out of the parking space without any extra maneuvers, the function will be deactivated, even if it seems as though the vehicle is not completely out of the parking space.

Park Assist Pilot\* limitations
Park Assist Pilot (PAP 121 ) may not be able to detect all conditions in all situations and functionality may therefore be limited.
The driver should be aware of the following limitations for Park Assist Pilot.

WARNING
- The parking sensors have dead/blind spots where objects cannot be detected.
- Pay particular attention to people and animals near the vehicle.
- Bear in mind that the front end of the vehicle may swing out towards oncoming traffic during the parking maneuver.

CAUTION
Objects situated higher than the detection area of the sensors are not included when the parking maneuver is calculated, which could cause the function to swing into the parking space too early. Such parking spaces should be avoided for this reason.
The parking sequence is cancelled
A parking sequence will be cancelled if:
• the driver moves the steering wheel
● the vehicle's speed exceeds 7 km/h (4 mph)
- the driver taps Cancel in the center display
- when the anti-lock brakes or the Electronic stability control are engaged - e.g. when a wheel loses grip on a slippery road
- when speed-dependent power steering wheel resistance is working at reduced power – e.g. during cooling due to overheating
- when, while parking, the parking sensors detect a vehicle or pedestrian in the vehicle's intended direction of travel behind or in front of the vehicle, the auto-brake function will bring the vehicle to a standstill.
A message in the center display will explain why the parking sequence was cancelled.
CAUTION
Under certain circumstances, the function may not be able to find parking spaces – one reason may be that the sensors are disrupted by external sound sources that emit the same ultrasonic frequencies that the system works with.
Examples of such sources include horns, wet tires on asphalt, pneumatic brakes, exhaust noise from motorcycles, etc.
NOTE
Dirt, ice and snow covering the sensors reduce their function and can make measurement impossible.
Driver responsibility
The driver should keep in mind that the function is a parking aid – not an infallible fully automatic system. The driver must always be prepared to take control and cancel a parking sequence if necessary.
There are a number of things to keep in mind when parking, including:
- The driver is always responsible for determining if the space suggested by the function is suitable for parking.
- Do not use the function when using snow chains or a temporary spare tire.
- Do not use the function if there are any objects protruding from the vehicle.
- Heavy rain or snowfall may inhibit PAP's ability to accurately measure a parking space.
- While searching and measuring the parking space, the function may be unable to detect objects located far into the space.
- PAP may not suggest parking spaces on narrow streets if it does not detect sufficient space for maneuvering the vehicle.
- Use approved tires 122 inflated to the correct tire pressure because this affects the function's ability to provide parking assistance.
- The function is based on the way the vehicles are parked behind and in front of your parking space. If they are, for example, parked too close to the curb, there is a risk that your vehicle's tires or wheel rims
DRIVER SUPPORT
could be damaged by the curb during the parking procedure.
- Perpendicular parking spaces may not be detected or may be suggested unnecessarily if a parked vehicle is sticking out more than other parked vehicles.
- The function is intended to provide parking assistance on straight streets, not sections of street with sharp curves or bends. Always make sure that your vehicle is parallel to relevant parking spaces when the function is measuring the parking space.

DRIVER SUPPORT
Common camera and radar limitations Obstructed camera

natural_image
Side view of a car's front window with a red circle highlighting the area (no text or symbols)The area marked in the illustration must be cleaned regularly and kept free of decals, objects, solar film, etc.
The camera is located on the upper interior section of the windshield along with the radar sensor.
Do not place, affix or mount anything on the inside or outside of the windshield, or in front of or around the camera and radar sensor – this could disrupt camera and radar-based functions. It could cause functions to be reduced, deactivated completely or to produce an incorrect function response.
High temperatures
If the temperature in the passenger compartment is very high, the camera/radar sensor
will switch off temporarily for approx. 15 minutes after the engine is started to protect its electronic components. When the temperature has cooled sufficiently, the camera/radar sensor will automatically restart.
Damaged windshield
i NOTE
Failure to take action could result in reduced performance for the driver support systems that use the camera and radar unit. It could cause functions to be reduced, deactivated completely or to produce an incorrect function response.
To avoid the risk of malfunction of the driver support systems that use the radar sensor, the following also apply:
- If there are cracks, scratches or stone chips on the windshield in front of any of the camera and radar sensor "windows" and this covers an area of about 0.5 × 3.0 mm ( 0.02 × 0.12 in.) or more, contact a workshop to have the windshield replaced 126 .
- Volvo advises against repairing cracks, scratches or stone chips in the area in front of the camera and radar sensor – the
entire windshield should instead be replaced.
- Before replacing the windshield, contact a workshop 126 to verify that the right windshield has been ordered and installed.
- The same type of windshield wipers or wipers approved by Volvo should be used for replacement.
- If the windshield is replaced, the camera and radar sensor must be recalibrated by a workshop 126 to help ensure proper functioning of all of the vehicle's camera and radar-based systems.
Additional radar limitations
Vehicle speed
The radar sensor's ability to detect a vehicle ahead is significantly reduced if the speed of the vehicle ahead differs greatly from your vehicle's speed.
DRIVER SUPPORT
Limited field of vision
The radar sensor has a limited field of vision. In some situations, it may detect a vehicle later than expected or not at all.

The radar sensor's field of vision
The radar sensor's detection of vehicles very close to your vehicle may be delayed in certain situations, e.g. if a vehicle pulls
in between your vehicle and the vehicle directly ahead.
2 Small vehicles, such as motorcycles, or vehicles that are not driving in the center of the lane may remain undetected.
3 In curves, the radar may detect the a different vehicle than intended or lose sight of a target vehicle.
Low trailers

natural_image
Diagram showing two vehicles with a red triangular highlight on their side, no text or symbols presentLow trailer in the radar shadow
Low trailers may also be difficult or even impossible for the radar to detect. The driver should be extra alert when driving behind vehicles towing low trailers when Adaptive Cruise Control* or Pilot Assist* is activated.
Additional camera limitations
Reduced visibility
Cameras have the same limitations as the human eye. In other words, their "vision" is impaired by adverse weather conditions such as heavy snowfall/rain, dense fog, swirling
dust/snow, etc. These conditions may reduce the function of systems that depend on the camera or cause these systems to temporarily stop functioning.
Strong sunlight, reflections from the road surface, ice or snow covering the road, a dirty road surface, or unclear lane marker lines may drastically reduce the camera's ability to detect the side of a lane, a pedestrian, a cyclist, a large animal or another vehicle.
DRIVER SUPPORT
Additional Park Assist Camera\* limitations
Blind sectors

natural_image
Top-down view of a car parked in a parking lot with diagonal roof lines (no visible text or symbols)There are "blind" sectors between the cameras' fields of vision.
With the Park Assist Camera's 360° view* selected, objects/obstacles may not be detected if they are located in the "joints" where the edges of the individual camera views meet.

WARNING
Even if it seems as though only a fairly small section of the screen image is obstructed, this may mean that a relatively large sector is hidden and obstacles there may not be detected until they are very near the vehicle.
Lighting conditions
The camera image is automatically adjusted according to the current lighting conditions. This means that the brightness and quality of the image may vary slightly. Poor lighting conditions may result in reduced image quality.
i NOTE
A bike carrier and other accessories mounted on the rear of the vehicle can obscure the camera's view.

STARTING AND DRIVING
Starting the vehicle
The vehicle can be started using the start knob in the tunnel console when the remote key is in the passenger compartment.

natural_image
Close-up of a car air conditioner control panel with buttons and dials (no readable text or symbols)Start knob in the tunnel console.

WARNING
Before starting:
- Buckle your seat belt.
- Adjust the seat, steering wheel and mirrors.
• Make sure you can fully depress the brake pedal.
The remote key is not physically used to start the ignition because the vehicle is equipped with the keyless Passive Start system.
To start the vehicle:
- The remote key must be inside the vehicle. For vehicles with Passive Start, the key must be in the front section of the passenger compartment. With the optional key-less locking/unlocking function*, the key can be anywhere in the vehicle.
- Press and hold down the brake pedal 1 as far as possible.
- Turn the start knob clockwise and release. The control will automatically return to the original position.

WARNING
- Never use more than one inlay mat at a time on the driver's floor. If any other type of floor mat is used, remove the original mat from the driver's seat floor before driving. All types of mats must be securely anchored in the attachment points in the floor. Make sure the floor mat does not impede the movement of the brake pedal or accelerator pedal in any way, as this could be a serious safety hazard.
- Volvo's floor mats are specially manufactured for your vehicle. They must be properly secured in the attachment points in the floor to help ensure they cannot slide and become trapped under the pedals.
The starter motor will crank until the engine starts or until overheating protection is triggered.
Error messages
If the Vehicle key not found message is shown in the instrument panel at start, place the remote key at the backup reader and then make a new start attempt.

Location of the backup reader in the tunnel console.
i NOTE
When the remote key is placed in the backup reader, make sure that no other vehicle keys, metal objects or electronic devices (e.g. cellular phones, tablets, laptops or chargers) are in the backup reader. Multiple vehicle keys close to each other in the backup reader can disrupt their functionality.
CAUTION
If the engine has not responded after 3 attempts – wait for 3 minutes before starting a new attempt. Starting capability increases if the starter battery is given time to recover.
WARNING
Never remove the remote control key from the vehicle while driving or the vehicle is being towed.
WARNING
- Always remove the remote key from the passenger compartment when you leave the vehicle and make sure the ignition is in mode 0.
- Always put the gear selector in P and apply the parking brake before leaving the vehicle. Never leave the vehicle unsupervised while the engine is running.
- Always open the garage door fully and make sure that ventilation is very good before starting the engine in a garage. The exhaust fumes produced by the vehicle contain carbon monoxide, which is invisible and odorless but very toxic.
! CAUTION
- When starting in cold weather, the automatic transmission may shift up at slightly higher engine speeds than normal until the automatic transmission fluid reaches normal operating temperature.
- Do not race a cold engine immediately after starting. This could prevent fluids from properly lubricating vital components in the engine before it has reached the proper operating temperature.
- The engine should be idling when the gear selector is moved. Never accelerate until the gear is fully engaged. Accelerating rapidly before a gear is properly engaged could lead to harder wear of components.
- To help prevent the transmission oil from overheating, select P or N when idling at a standstill for prolonged periods of time.

Brake functions
The vehicle's brakes are used to reduce speed or prevent the vehicle from rolling. In addition to the wheel brakes and parking brakes, the vehicle is also equipped with a number of automatic brake assist functions. These systems provide assistance by e.g. the driver not needing to depress the brake pedal at a traffic light or when starting up a hill.
Depending on how the vehicle is equipped, the following brake assist functions may be included:
• Auto-hold brake function at a standstill (Auto Hold)
• Hill Start Assist (Hill Start Assist)
• Braking assist after a collision

• City Safety™ (p. 319)
Brakes
The brake pedal is used to apply the vehicle's regular brakes, which are part of the brake system.
The vehicle is equipped with two brake circuits. If one brake circuit is damaged, the brake pedal may go down further when depressed. More pressure will then be required from the driver for normal braking effect.
The driver's pressure on the brake pedal is enhanced by a power braking function.

WARNING
Power braking only functions if the engine is running.
If the brake pedal is used when the engine is turned off, the pedal will feel stiffer than usual and greater pressure must be applied to brake the vehicle.
In very hilly areas or when driving with a heavy load, manual gear shifting can be used to augment the brakes with engine braking. Engine braking is most effective if the same gear is used both uphill and downhill.
Anti-lock brakes
The vehicle is equipped with an Anti-lock Braking System (ABS 2 ), which helps prevent the wheels from locking and helps maintain steering control when braking. Vibrations may be felt from the brake pedal when ABS is operating, which is normal.
After the vehicle is started, a brief test of the ABS system is automatically performed when the driver releases the brake pedal. An additional automatic test of the system may be performed when the vehicle is traveling at a low speed. During the test, the brake pedal may feel as though it is pulsating.

STARTING AND DRIVING
◀◀

WARNING
If the warning symbols for both brake fault and ABS fault are lit simultaneously, there may be a fault in the brake system.
- If the brake fluid reservoir level is normal when this occurs, drive carefully to the nearest workshop to have the brake system checked - an authorized Volvo workshop is recommended.
- If the brake fluid has fallen below the MIN level in the brake fluid reservoir, the vehicle should not be driven until the brake fluid has been filled. The reason for the brake fluid loss must be checked.

Brake Assist System
The brake enhancing system, (BAS 3 ), helps increase braking force and can thereby reduce braking distance.
The system monitors the driver's braking habits and increases braking force when necessary. Braking force can be increased up to the point at which the ABS intervenes.

NOTE
When BAS is activated, depress and hold down the brake pedal as long as needed.
Related information
- Brakes (p. 393)
Braking on wet roads
Prolonged driving in heavy rain without braking may cause braking effect to be slightly delayed the first time the brakes are applied. This may also occur after washing the vehicle. It will then be necessary to apply greater pressure to the brake pedal. You should therefore maintain a greater distance to the vehicle ahead.
Firmly apply the brakes after washing the vehicle or driving on wet roads. This helps warm up the brake discs, enabling them to dry more quickly and protecting them against corrosion. Consider the current traffic situation when braking.
Related information
- Brakes (p. 393)
• Braking on salted roads (p. 395)
Braking on salted roads
When driving on salted roads, a layer of salt may form on the brake discs and brake pads. This could increase stopping distance. Maintain an extra large safety distance to the vehicle ahead. Make sure to also:
- Apply the brakes from time to time to help remove salt. Make sure braking does not pose a risk to any other road users.
• Gently apply the brakes when you have finished driving and before driving again.
Related information

• Braking on wet roads (p. 394)
Maintenance of the brake system
Regularly check the brake system components for wear.
To keep the vehicle as safe and reliable as possible, follow the Volvo service schedule specified in the Warranty and Maintenance Records Information booklet. After replacing brake pads and brake discs, braking effect is not adapted until they are "broken in" by driving a few hundred kilometers (miles). Compensate for the reduced braking effect by applying greater pressure to the brake pedal. Volvo recommends only using brake pads approved for your Volvo.
CAUTION
The brake system's components should be regularly checked for wear.
Contact a workshop for advice on how to do this or let a workshop perform the inspection - an authorized Volvo workshop is recommended.

Parking brake
The parking brake helps keep the vehicle stationary by mechanically locking two wheels.

natural_image
Close-up of a car's side panel with a 'DRIVE MON' button and control buttons (no readable text beyond basic symbols)The parking brake controls are located in the tunnel console between the seats.
When the electric parking brake is being applied, a faint sound can be heard from the brake's electric motor. This sound can also be heard during the automatic function check of the parking brake.
If the vehicle is stationary when the parking brake is activated, it will only be applied to the rear wheels. If it is activated while the vehicle is moving, the normal brakes will be used on all four wheels. Braking will be transferred to only the rear wheels when the vehicle is almost stopped.

Shiftlock
The automatic transmission's shiftlock function helps prevent inadvertently moving the gear selector between different positions. There are two types of shiftlocks: mechanical and automatic.
Mechanical shiftlock

Shiftlock for vehicles with large gear selectors.
The gear selector can be moved back and forth between N and D. The other positions have a shiftlock that is operated using the lock button on the gear selector.
Press and hold the shiftlock button and move the gear selector forward or backward between P, R, N and D.
Automatic shiftlock
The automatic shiftlock has a separate safety system.
From Park – P or Neutral – N
To move the gear selector from P or N to another gear selector position, the brake pedal must be depressed and the ignition in mode II. For vehicles with the small gear selector, the engine must be running.
If the gear selector is in N and the vehicle has been stationary for at least 3 seconds (with or without the engine running), the gear selector will be locked in that position.
Messages in the instrument panel
If the gear selector is locked in position a message will appear in the instrument panel e.g.
Gear lever Press brake pedal to activate gear lever.
There is no mechanical shiftlock function. 7

The kickdown function
Kickdown can be used when maximum acceleration is needed e.g. when passing. When the accelerator pedal is depressed all the way to the floor (past the normal full accelerator position), the transmission will automatically engage kickdown, i.e. immediately shift down to a lower gear.
If the accelerator pedal is released from the kickdown position, the transmission will automatically shift up again.
Safety function
The transmission control module is equipped with a downshift protection feature to help prevent the engine from overheating.
In some conditions, the transmission will prevent downshifting/kickdown if this would lead to such high engine speed (rpm) that the engine could be damaged. If the driver still attempts downshifting or kickdown at a high rpm, nothing will happen and the original gear will remain selected.
With kickdown, the vehicle can downshift one or more steps at a time depending on the engine speed. The vehicle upshifts when the engine reaches its maximum rpm to prevent engine damage.

All Wheel Drive (AWD)\*
All-wheel drive (AWD 9 ), also called four-wheel drive, means that power is distributed to all four wheels, which improves traction. To achieve the best traction, power is automatically directed to the wheels that have the best grip. The system continuously calculates the need for torque to the rear wheels, and can immediately redistribute up to half of the engine's torque to the rear wheels.
All-wheel drive also has a stabilizing effect at higher speeds. In normal driving conditions, most of the engine's power is directed to the front wheels. When the vehicle is stationary, all-wheel drive is always activated in preparation for maximum traction during acceleration.
All-wheel drive reacts differently depending on which drive mode is selected.

STARTING AND DRIVING
Eco drive mode
Eco drive mode can help make driving more fuel-efficient and eco-friendly.
Use this mode to save fuel and promote eco-friendly driving.
When Eco mode is activated, the following characteristics are modified:
- The automatic transmission's shifting points.
• Engine control and accelerator pedal response. - Eco Coast functionality is activated and engine braking is disabled when the accelerator pedal is released at speeds between 65 and 140 km/h (40 and 87 mph).
- Some of the climate system settings will be reduced or switched off.
- Information will be shown in the ECO gauge in the instrument panel to help promote more eco-friendly and economical driving.
Coast function Eco Coast
Eco Coast essentially deactivates engine braking, allowing the vehicle's kinetic energy to be used to roll greater distances. When the driver releases the accelerator pedal, the transmission is automatically disengaged from the engine. Engine speed is reduced to idling speed to reduce fuel consumption.
This function is most effective in driving situations where the vehicle can roll freely for a long distance e.g. on roads with slight downgrades or when a decrease in speed is anticipated such as when approaching an area with a lower speed limit.
Activating Eco Coast
The function is activated when the accelerator pedal is fully released and the following conditions are met:
• Eco drive mode is activated.
• The gear selector is in D.
- The vehicle's speed is approximately 65-140 km/h (40-87 mph).
- The gradient of the downgrade is less than approximately 6%.
COASTING will be displayed in the instrument panel when Eco Coast is being used.
Limitations
Eco Coast is not available if
- the engine and/or transmission are not at normal working temperatures
- the gear selector is moved from D to manual shifting mode
• the vehicle's speed is not within the 65-140 km/h (40-87 mph) range
• the gradient of the downgrade is more than approximately 6%
- the steering wheel paddles* are being used for manual shifting.
Deactivating and turning off Eco Coast
In certain situations, it may be advisable to deactivate or turn off Eco Coast so that engine braking can be used. These situations might include driving down steep hills or before passing another vehicle to help ensure this can be done as safely as possible.
Deactivate Eco Coast by
- pressing the accelerator or brake pedal
- moving the gear selector to manual mode
• using the steering wheel paddles* to shift.
Turn off Eco Coast by
• switching to another drive mode*
• deactivating Eco drive mode in Function view.
It is possible to roll short distances even without Eco Coast in order to help conserve fuel. However, for the best fuel economy, Eco Coast should be activated and used to roll longer distances.
Cruise control Eco Cruise
When cruise control is activated in the Eco drive mode, the vehicle's acceleration and deceleration will be slower than in other drive modes to help further conserve fuel. Because of this, the vehicle's actual speed may be slightly above or below the set speed.
- On a level road, the vehicle's actual speed may differ from the set speed when cruise control is active and the vehicle is coasting.
- On a steep uphill gradient, the vehicle's speed is reduced until the transmission downshifts. Reduced acceleration is then initiated in order to reach the set speed.
- On a downhill gradient in which the vehicle is coasting, the vehicle's actual speed may be slightly above or below the set speed. The function uses engine braking to keep the set speed. If necessary, the normal brakes are also applied.
ECO gauge in the instrument panel

Eco gauge in 12" instrument panel*.

Eco gauge in 8" Instrument panel,
The ECO gauge indicates how economical current driving is:
• A low reading in the green area of the gauge indicates economical driving.
- A high reading is shown when driving is not economical, e.g. heavy braking or rapid acceleration.
The ECO gauge also has an indicator showing how a reference driver would drive in the same driving situation. This is shown by the short pointer in the gauge.
ECO Climate
In Eco mode, ECO climate is automatically activated in the passenger compartment to help reduce energy consumption.
i NOTE
When the Eco drive mode is activated, settings for certain climate system and electricity consuming functions are reduced. Some of these settings can be reset manually, but full functionality will only be restored by switching off Eco mode or adapting the Individual* drive mode to full climate system functionality.

Economical driving
A more economical driving style can help lower fuel consumption.
Before driving
- If possible, precondition the vehicle before driving.
- If preconditioning is not possible when it is cold outside, use seat and steering wheel heating first. Avoid heating the entire passenger compartment to reduce the amount of current being taken from the start battery.
- Avoid using idling to warm up the vehicle before driving.
- The type of tires and inflation pressure used could affect energy consumption – consult an authorized Volvo retailer for advice on suitable tires.
- Remove unnecessary items from the vehicle - the heavier the load, the higher the fuel consumption.
While driving
• Activate Eco drive mode.
- Use gear selector position D as often as possible.
- When using manual gear shifting, drive using the highest possible gear. Use the gear indicator 14 .
- Maintain a steady speed and a generous following distance to traffic ahead to minimize braking. Use engine braking if possible,
- Higher speeds increase energy consumption because air resistance increases with speed.
- In a cold climate, reduce heating of the windshield/rear window, mirrors, seats and the steering wheel.
- Avoid driving with the windows open.
- Do not use the accelerator pedal to keep the vehicle stationary on an uphill gradient. Instead, activate the auto-hold brake function at a standstill.
- Use trip data to see current fuel consumption.
WARNING
Never turn off the engine while the vehicle is moving, e.g. when driving downhill. This deactivates certain important systems such as power steering and brakes.
After driving
- If possible, park in a climate-controlled garage.

It is important to have the vehicle's systems and equipment checked carefully before driving long distances.
Check that
- the engine is running properly and that fuel consumption is normal
• there are no leaks (fuel, oil or other fluid)
• the brake pedal is functioning properly - all lights work
- tire tread depth and air pressure are at correct levels. Change to snow tires when driving in areas where there is a risk of snowy or icy roads

Winter driving
It is important to check the vehicle before driving in cold/snowy conditions to make sure it can be driven safely.
Before the cold season arrives:
- Make sure the engine coolant contains 50% antifreeze. This mixture helps protect the engine from frost erosion down to approx. -35 °C (-31 °F). Do not mix different types of antifreeze as this could pose a health risk.
- Keep the fuel tank well filled to prevent condensation from forming.
- Check the viscosity of the engine oil. Oil with low viscosity (thinner oil) improves cold-weather starting and reduces fuel consumption when driving with a cold engine.
- Check the condition and charge level of the start battery. Cold weather places greater demands on the start battery and reduces its capacity.
- Use washer fluid containing antifreeze to help prevent ice from forming in the washer fluid reservoir.
See separate section for engine oil recommendations.
Slippery driving conditions
To help optimize traction and roadholding, Volvo recommends using snow tires on all wheels whenever there is a risk of snow or ice on the road.

NOTE
Certain countries require use of winter tires by law. Not all countries permit the use of studded tires.
Practice driving on slippery surfaces under controlled conditions to learn how the vehicle reacts.

Driving through standing water
It may be necessary to drive the vehicle through standing water e.g. deep puddles or flooding on the road. This must be done with great caution.
The vehicle can be driven through water up to a depth of 25 cm (9 in) at no more than walking speed. Be particularly careful when driving through flowing water.
When driving through standing water, drive slowly and do not stop the vehicle. When you have passed the water, press lightly on the brake pedal and check that the brakes are functioning properly. Water, mud, slush, etc. can make the brake linings slippery, resulting in delayed braking effect.
- If the vehicle is equipped with contacts for an electric heater or trailer coupling, clean these after driving in water or mud.
- Do not allow the vehicle to stand in water up to the sills any longer than absolutely necessary. This could result in electrical malfunctions.
CAUTION
- Engine damage could occur if water enters the air cleaner.
- If water enters the transmission, the lubricating ability of the oils is reduced and the service life of these systems is shortened.
- Damage to any component, engine, transmission, turbocharger, differential or its internal components caused by flooding, vapor lock or insufficient oil is not covered under warranty.
- If the engine stalls while the vehicle is in water, do not attempt to restart it. Have the vehicle towed out of the water to a workshop. An authorized Volvo workshop is recommended. Risk of engine failure.
CAUTION
Because it can be difficult to determine the water depth, Volvo recommends not driving through standing or running water. The driver is always responsible for operating the vehicle in a safe manner and adhering to all applicable laws and regulations.

WARNING
California Proposition 65
Operating, servicing and maintaining a passenger vehicle can expose you to chemicals including engine exhaust, carbon monoxide, phthalates, and lead, which are known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. To minimize exposure, avoid breathing exhaust, do not idle the engine except as necessary, service your vehicle in a well ventilated area and wear gloves or wash your hands frequently when servicing your vehicle. For more information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov/passenger-vehicle.

Fuel
Volvo recommends the use of detergent gasoline to control engine deposits.
Deposit control gasoline (gasoline with detergent additives)
Detergent gasoline is effective in keeping injectors and intake valves clean. Consistent use of deposit control gasolines will help ensure good driveability and fuel economy. If you are not sure whether the gasoline contains deposit control additives, check with the service station operator.

NOTE
Volvo recommends not using external fuel injector cleaning systems, e.g. do not add detergent additives to gasoline before or after refueling.
Unleaded fuel
All Volvo vehicles have a three-way catalytic converter and must only use unleaded gasoline. US and Canadian regulations require that pumps delivering unleaded gasoline are labeled "UNLEADED". Only the nozzles of these pumps will fit in your vehicle's fuel filler inlet. It is unlawful to dispense leaded fuel into a vehicle labeled "unleaded gasoline only". Leaded gasoline damages the three-way catalytic converter and the heated oxygen sensor system. Repeated use of leaded gasoline will lessen the effectiveness of the emission control system and could result in loss of emission warranty coverage. State and local vehicle inspection programs will make detection of misfueling easier, possibly resulting in emission test failure for misfueled vehicles.
NOTE
Some U.S. and Canadian gasolines contain an octane enhancing additive called methyl-cyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl (MMT). If such fuels are used, your Emission Control System performance may be affected, and the Check Engine Light (malfunction indicator light) located on your instrument panel may light. If this occurs, please return your vehicle to a trained and qualified Volvo service technician for service.
Gasoline containing alcohol and ethers, "Oxygenated fuels"
Some fuel suppliers sell gasoline containing "oxygenates" which are usually alcohols or ethers. In some areas, state or local laws require that the service pump be marked indicating use of alcohols or ethers. However, there are areas in which the pumps are unmarked. If you are not sure whether there is alcohol or ethers in the gasoline you buy, check with the service station operator. To meet seasonal air quality standards, some areas require the use of "oxygenated" fuel.
Volvo permits the use of the following "oxygenated" fuels. However, the specified octane ratings must still be met.
Alcohol - Ethanol

TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline
Volvo endorses the use of "TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline" where available to help maintain engine performance and reliability. TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline meets a new standard jointly established by leading automotive manufactures to meet the needs of today's advanced engines. Qualifying gasoline retailers (stations) will, in most cases, identify their gasoline as having met the "TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline" standards.
NOTE
Information about TOP TIER Detergent Gasoline is available at toptiergas.com
NOTE
When switching to higher octane fuel or changing gasoline brands, it may be necessary to fill the tank more than once before a difference in engine operation is noticeable.
Fuel Formulations
Do not use gasoline that contains lead or manganese as a knock inhibitor, and do not use lead additives. Besides damaging the exhaust emission control systems on your vehicle, lead has been strongly linked to certain forms of cancer.
Many fuels contain benzene as a solvent. Unburned benzene has been strongly linked to certain forms of cancer. If you live in an area where you must fill your own gas tank, take precautions. These may include:
• standing upwind away from the filler nozzle while refueling
- refueling only at gas stations with vapor recovery systems that fully seal the mouth of the filler neck during refueling
- wearing neoprene gloves while handling a fuel filler nozzle.
Use of Additives
With the exception of gas line antifreeze during winter months, do not add solvents, thickeners, or other store-bought additives to your vehicle's fuel, cooling, or lubricating systems. Overuse may damage your engine, and some of these additives contain organically volatile chemicals. Do not needlessly expose yourself to these chemicals.

WARNING
Never carry a cell phone that is switched on while refueling your vehicle. If the phone rings, this may cause a spark that could ignite gasoline fumes, resulting in fire and injury.

WARNING
Carbon monoxide is a poisonous, colorless, and odorless gas. It is present in all exhaust gases. If you ever smell exhaust fumes inside the vehicle, make sure the passenger compartment is ventilated, and immediately return the vehicle to a trained and qualified Volvo service technician for correction.
Demanding driving
In demanding driving conditions, such as when towing a trailer or driving in hot weather or for prolonged periods at high altitudes, it
may be a good idea to switch to a higher-octane fuel (AKI 16 91 or higher) or to switch to another brand of gasoline in order to fully utilize the vehicle's engine capacity and optimize traction.

Emission controls
Three-way catalytic converter
- Keep your engine properly tuned. Certain engine malfunctions, particularly involving the electrical, fuel or distributor ignition systems, may cause unusually high three-way catalytic converter temperatures. Do not continue to operate your vehicle if you detect engine misfire, noticeable loss of power or other unusual operating conditions, such as engine overheating or back-firing. A properly tuned engine will help avoid malfunctions that could damage the three-way catalytic converter.
- Do not park your vehicle over combustible materials, such as grass or leaves, which can come into contact with the hot exhaust system and cause such materials to ignite under certain wind and weather conditions.
- Excessive starter cranking (in excess of one minute), or an intermittently firing or flooded engine can cause three-way catalytic converter or exhaust system overheating.
- Remember that tampering or unauthorized modifications to the engine, the Engine Control Module, or the vehicle may be illegal and can cause three-way catalytic converter or exhaust system over-

heating. This includes: altering fuel injection settings or components, altering emission system components or location or removing components, and/or repeated use of leaded fuel.

NOTE
Unleaded fuel is required for vehicles with three-way catalytic converters.
Heated oxygen sensors
The heated oxygen sensors monitor the oxygen content of the exhaust gases. Readings are fed into a control module that continuously monitors engine functions and controls fuel injection. The ratio of fuel to air into the engine is continuously adjusted for efficient combustion to help reduce harmful emissions.

Battery drain
The electrical functions in the vehicle drain the battery to varying degrees. Avoid using ignition mode II when the engine is switched off. Use ignition mode I instead, as this uses less electrical current.
Note that certain accessories may also drain power from the electrical system. Do not use functions that use a lot of electrical current when the engine is turned off. Examples of such functions are:
- blower
headlights
• windshield wipers
• audio system (especially at high volume).
If the starter battery voltage is low, a message is shown in the driver display. The vehicle's energy-saving function will then turn off or reduce certain functions, such as the blower and/or the audio system.
- To charge the battery, start the engine and let it run for at least 15 minutes (driving charges the battery faster than letting the engine idle).

Jump starting using another battery
If the start battery is discharged, current from another battery can be used to start the vehicle.

Jumper cable connecting points. Engine compartment appearance may vary depending on vehicle model and equipment level.
To avoid short circuits or other damage, the following steps are recommended when jump starting the battery using another battery:
- Put the ignition in mode 0.
- Make sure the auxiliary battery (the battery used to jump start the discharged battery) has a voltage of 12 volts.
STARTING AND DRIVING
- If the auxiliary battery is in another vehicle, turn off that vehicle's engine and make sure that the vehicles are not touching each other.
- Clamp the red jumper cable onto the auxiliary battery's positive (+) terminal (1).
CAUTION
Connect the jump cable carefully to prevent short circuits with other components in the engine compartment.
- Fold back the cover over your vehicle's positive (+) jump start terminal (2).
- Clamp the other end of the red jumper cable to your vehicle's positive (+) jump start terminal (2).
- Clamp the black jumper cable onto the auxiliary battery's negative (-) terminal (3).
- Clamp the other end of the black jumper cable to your vehicle's negative (-) ground point (4).
-
Make sure the jumper cables are securely attached to help prevent sparks while jump starting.
-
Start the engine of the assisting vehicle and let it run for a few minutes at a higher idling speed than normal, about 1500 rpm.
- Start the engine of the vehicle with the dead battery.
CAUTION
Do not touch the connections between the cable and the vehicle during the start attempt. Risk of sparking,
- Remove the jumper cables in the reverse order – first the black cables and then the red cables.
Make sure that none of the clamps of the black jumper cables come into contact with either vehicle's positive (+) jump start terminals or either of the red jumper cable's connected clamps.
WARNING
High voltage may be dangerous if handled incorrectly. Do not touch anything on batteries that is not clearly described in this Owner's Manual.
- Never use a 48 V support battery to jump start the vehicle.
- External electrical equipment may not under any circumstance be connected to the 48 V battery.
- Only a workshop may replace or perform service on the 48 V battery – an authorized Volvo workshop is recommended.
WARNING
PROPOSITION 65 WARNING! Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds, chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer and reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.

WARNING
- Batteries generate hydrogen gas, which is flammable and explosive.
- Do not connect the jumper cable to any part of the fuel system or to any moving parts. Avoid touching hot manifolds.
- Battery fluid contains sulfuric acid. Do not allow battery fluid to contact eyes, skin, fabrics or painted surfaces.
- If contact occurs, flush the affected area immediately with water. Obtain medical help immediately if eyes are affected.
- Never expose the battery to open flame or electric spark. Do not smoke near the battery. Failure to follow the instructions for jump starting can lead to injury.
i NOTE
If the starter battery has been discharged to the extent that the vehicle does not have normal electrical functions and the engine must then be jump-started with an external battery or a battery charger, the Start/Stop function may remain activated. If the Start/Stop function shortly thereafter auto-stops the engine, there is a huge risk that auto-start of the engine will fail due to insufficient battery capacity since the battery had not had time to recharge.
If the vehicle has been jump-started or if there has not been enough time for the battery to be charged with a battery charger, the Start/Stop function should be temporarily deactivated until the battery has been recharged by the vehicle. At an ambient temperature of about +15°C (about 60°F), the battery must be charged by the vehicle for at least one hour. At lower ambient temperatures, the charging time can increase to 3-4 hours. It is advisable to charge the battery with an external battery charger.

STARTING AND DRIVING
Driving with a trailer
There are a number of things to consider when towing a trailer, such as the towbar, the trailer and how the load is distributed in the trailer.
Load-carrying capacity is determined by the vehicle's curb weight. The total weight of all passengers and any installed accessories, e.g. towbar, reduces the vehicle's load-carrying capacity by the corresponding amount.
- Towbars used on the vehicle must be approved for the applicable use.
- Distribute the load on the trailer so that the weight on the towbar complies with the specified maximum towball weight. The tongue weight is calculated as part of the vehicle's payload.
- Increase the tire pressure to the recommended pressure for a full load.
- The engine is subjected to more load than usual when towing a trailer.
- Towing a trailer affects the vehicle's handling, durability and driving economy.
- Do not drive with a heavy trailer when the vehicle is very new. Wait until the mileage has reached at least 1000 km (620 miles).
-
On long and steep downgrades, the vehicle's brakes are subjected to much more load than usual. When manually shifting, downshift and adapt speed accordingly.
-
Follow applicable regulations regarding permitted speed and weight.
- Drive slowly when towing a trailer up a long and steep incline.
- The maximum trailer weights given only apply to altitudes up to 1000 meters (3280 feet) above sea level. At higher altitudes, engine power (and thus the vehicle's climbing ability) is decreased due to the reduced air density, and the maximum trailer weight must therefore be reduced. The weight of the vehicle and trailer must be decreased by 10% for each additional 1000 m (3280 feet) or part thereof.
- Avoid driving with a trailer on inclines of more than 12%.
- Avoid overloading and other incorrect use.
- The trailer's brakes must be balanced with the vehicle's brakes to help ensure safe stops (follow applicable local regulations).
CAUTION
- Bumper-attached trailer hitches must not be used on Volvos, nor should safety chains be attached to the bumper.
- Trailer hitches attaching to the vehicle rear axle must not be used.
- Never connect a trailer's hydraulic brake system directly to the vehicle brake system, nor a trailer's lighting system directly to the vehicle lighting system. Consult your nearest authorized Volvo retailer for correct installation.
- When towing a trailer, the trailer's safety chains or wire must be correctly fastened to the attachment points provided in the trailer hitch on the vehicle. The safety chain or wire must never be fastened to or wound around the towing ball.
NOTE
The optional detachable trailer hitch may not be available in all markets or on all models. Consult your Volvo retailer.

NOTE
Extreme weather conditions, towing a trailer, high altitude and lower fuel grade than recommended are factors that can significantly increase the vehicle's fuel consumption.
Trailer weights

WARNING
Please adhere to the recommendations provided for trailer weight. If the recommendations are not followed, the vehicle and trailer may be difficult to control during evasive maneuvers and braking.

NOTE
The specified maximum trailer weights are those permitted by Volvo. National vehicle regulations may set additional restrictions on trailer weight and speed. The trailer hitches may be certified for higher towing weights than the vehicle is permitted to tow.
Self-leveling suspension\*
The vehicle's self-leveling system attempts to keep the vehicle at a constant level, regardless of load (up to the maximum permitted weight). When the vehicle is stationary, the rear end of the vehicle will be slightly lowered, which is normal.
Driving in hilly terrain or hot weather
In certain conditions, there is a risk of overheating when driving with a trailer. If overheating of the engine and drive system is detected, a warning symbol will illuminate in the instrument panel and a message will appear.
The automatic transmission adapts the gear for the current load and engine speed.
Steep inclines
Do not lock the automatic transmission into a higher gear than what the engine can handle – it is not always preferable to drive in high gears at low rpm.
Parking on a hill
- Depress the brake pedal.
- Apply the parking brake.
- Put the gear selector in P.
- Release the brake pedal.
Put chocks behind the wheels when the vehicle is parked on a hill with a trailer attached.
Starting on a hill
- Depress the brake pedal.
- Put the gear selector in D.
- Release the parking brake.
- Release the brake pedal and start driving.

STARTING AND DRIVING
Trailer Stability Assist\*
Trailer Stability Assist (TSA 18 ) is part of the ESC 19 stability system and is a function designed to help stabilize a vehicle that is towing a trailer when the vehicle and trailer have begun to sway. The function is added when installing a towbar. Contact a Volvo retailer for more information.
Reasons for swaying
A vehicle towing a trailer may begin to sway for various reasons. Normally this only occurs at high speeds. However, if the trailer is overloaded or unevenly distributed, e.g. too far back, there is a risk of swaying even at low speeds.
Swaying may be caused by factors such as:
- The vehicle and trailer are hit by a sudden, strong crosswind.
- The vehicle and trailer are traveling on an uneven road or over a bump.
• Sudden movements of the steering wheel.
Once swaying has begun, it can be difficult or impossible to stop it. This makes the vehicle and trailer difficult to control and there is a risk of swerving into oncoming traffic or driving off the road.
Trailer Stability Assist function
Trailer Stability Assist continuously monitors the vehicle's movements, particularly lateral movements. If swaying is detected, the brakes are applied individually on the front wheels, which has a stabilizing effect on the vehicle and trailer. This is often enough to enable the driver to regain control of the vehicle.
If the Trailer Stability Assist function's first attempt is not adequate to stop the swaying motion, the brakes are applied on all wheels and engine power is temporarily reduced. As the swaying motion begins to decrease and the vehicle and trailer have once again become stable, TSA stops regulating the brakes/engine power and the driver regains control of the vehicle.
NOTE
Trailer Stability Assist is deactivated if the driver activates ESC Sport Mode in the center display's menu system.
Trailer Stability Assist may not intervene if the driver tries to compensate for the swaying motion by moving the steering wheel rapidly, because the system will then not be able to determine if it is the trailer or the driver causing the swaying.

When Trailer Stability Assist is activated, the ESC symbol is displayed in the instrument panel.
NOTE
A vehicle software update is required when a towbar is retrofitted. Contact a Volvo retailer.

Checking trailer lights
When connecting a trailer, make sure that all of the lights on the trailer are functioning before starting to drive.
Trailer turn signals and brake lights
If one or more of the turn signals or brake lights on the trailer is not working, a symbol and message will be displayed in the instrument panel. The other lights on the trailer must be checked manually by the driver before the vehicle is driven.
| Symbol | Message |
| Trailer turn indicator Right turn indicator malfunctionTrailer turn indicator Left turn indicator malfunction | |
| Trailer brake light Malfunction |
If any of the trailer's turn signal lights is not working, the turn signal symbol in the instrument panel will also flash more quickly than normal.
Trailer rear fog light
When a trailer is connected, the vehicle's rear fog light may not illuminate and rear fog light functionality is instead transferred to the
trailer. If this is the case, check to see if the trailer is equipped with a rear fog light before activating the vehicle's fog lights when driving with a trailer to help ensure safe operation.
Checking trailer lights\*
Automatic check
When the trailer has been connected to the vehicle's electrical system, its lights can be checked by automatically activating them. This function helps the driver check that the trailer's lights are functioning correctly before starting to drive.
In order to perform this check, the vehicle must be switched off.
-
When a trailer is connected to the towbar, the message Automatic Trailer Lamp Check will appear in the instrument panel.
-
Acknowledge the message by pressing the O button on the right-side steering wheel keypad.
The light check will begin.
- Get out of the vehicle to perform the check.
All of the lights on the trailer will begin flashing, and then illuminate separately one at a time.
-

Preparations and towing

CAUTION
For some transmission variants, it is not possible to shift from P position if the engine is switched off. Contact an authorized Volvo workshop for assistance towing or call a professional towing service.

CAUTION
Note that the vehicle must always be towed with the wheels rolling forward.
- Do not tow a vehicle with automatic transmission at a speed greater than 80 km/h (50 mph) or for a distance greater than 80 km (50 miles).

WARNING
- Ignition mode II must be active – all airbags are deactivated in ignition mode I.
• Always have the remote key in the vehicle when it is towed.

WARNING
The brake and steering servos do not work when the engine is off – it takes about 5 times more pressure on the brake pedal and steering requires much more effort than normal.
- Turn on the hazard warning flashers.
- Attach the towline to the towing eyelet.
- Put the vehicle in ignition mode II – without pressing the brake pedal, turn the start knob clockwise and hold it there for about 4 seconds. Release the knob, which will automatically return to its original position.
-
Move the gear selector to neutral (N) and release the parking brake.
If the battery charge level is too low, it may not be possible to release the parking brake. Connect an auxiliary battery to the vehicle if the battery is discharged.The towing vehicle can now start driving.
-
Keep the towline taut when the towing vehicle slows down by applying light pressure to the brake pedal. This will help avoid jarring movements.
- Be prepared to apply the brakes to stop the vehicle.
Jump starting
Do not tow the vehicle to start the engine. Use an auxiliary battery if the start battery's charge level is so low that the engine cannot be started.

HD Radio™
HD Radio is a brand name registered by the DTS, Inc. 4 . 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 frequency as the AM or FM station's present frequency.
Introduction

Display when the radio is receiving an HD Radio broadcast (generic illustration)

NOTE
HD Radio volume may fade in and out at times due to coverage limitations.
The IBOC system is referred to as a "hybrid" since it is both analog and digital. During hybrid operation, receivers still continue to receive the analog (non-digital) signal. HD Radio receivers incorporate both modes of reception, where the receiver will automatically switch to the analog signal if the digital signal cannot be decoded or is lost by the receiver.
When you have tuned to an HD Radio station, the HD symbol will appear in the infotainment system display. The symbol will be displayed in different colors:
- Grayed-out symbol: no HD Radio broadcast reception
- White symbol: the radio is actively receiving an HD broadcast
• Orange symbol: the radio is receiving an HD broadcast with digital sound
More information about HD Radio and IBOC can be found on DTS, Inc.'s website, www.dts.com.
Artist Experience TM
A radio station's logo and album art can be displayed. If a station opts to provide this information, it is broadcast once every 12 minutes, which means that there may be a delay before the logo/album art appear on the screen. The radio can store 100 station logos
so the next time the radio is tuned to the same station, the logo will be displayed immediately. Album art is synched with the artist that you are currently listening to.
Ball game mode
This feature means that a main FM station (HD1) will broadcast live events, where the content of the programming is more important than sound quality, in analog mode only to help prevent the delay between analog and digital broadcasting. The HD Radio symbol will be white during live broadcasts and "Live" will be displayed next to the symbol.
Benefits of digital broadcasting
- Better sound (FM sounds near CD quality).
- Some FM frequencies offer a greater number of listening choices through multicasting (consisting of a frequency's main channel and any sub-channels that may also be available on that particular frequency.)
- When receiving a digital signal there is no multipath disturbance or hisses/pops/crackling due to outside influences.
AUDIO, MEDIA AND INTERNET
How HD Radio TM Technology 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 analog signal, stations send out a bundled signal – both analog and digital.
- An HD Radio receiver can receive both digital and analog broadcasts. Depending on the terrain and location of the vehicle (which will influence the signal strength), the receiver will determine which signal to receive.

• HD Radio™ limitations (p. 455) - Changing waveband and radio station (p. 450)
• Searching for a radio station (p. 450)
Activating and deactivating the HD Radio™
HD Radio is deactivated when the car leaves the factory.
When listening to an HD Radio station and driving through areas with weak HD signals (fringe areas), you may experience that the radio repeatedly switches between analog/digital and digital/analog reception. If this happens, it may be desirable to switch HD off.
Carry out the following to activate or deactivate HD Radio:
- Drag down the top view and tap on Settings.
- Press Media and FM Radio.
- Press HD Radio FM to activate/deactivate the function.
If HD radio is deactivated, the radio will be unable to receive digital broadcasts but it will continue to function as a conventional radio (analog FM receiver). Please note that when HD is switched off, it will not be possible to tune in to sub-channels.
Activating or deactivating HD Radio only affects the currently selected waveband.

HD Radio™ sub-channels
In many cases, a main HD Radio station (FM wavebands only) will also have sub-channels offering additional types of programming or music.
Sub-channels

Example of an HD Radio station with sub-channels If any sub-channels are available, they will listed below the main channel on the screen. In this example, WILD-FM HD2 is a sub-channel.
Selecting sub-channels
To listen to a station's sub-channel(s), tap the station on the screen or press the forward/back arrow keys on the right-side steering wheel keypad or below the screen.
Sub-channels can also be saved as radio favorites.
If you tap a sub-channel favorite, it may take up to 6 seconds before the channel becomes audible. If you tap a station while you are out of digital range of the transmitter, No reception will be displayed.

HD Radio™ limitations
Limitations
- Main channel vs. sub-channels (FM only): The main channel is the only channel that can receive in hybrid mode (both digital and analog). If a frequency has sub-channels, they are broadcast in digital mode only. The main FM channel will be displayed as, for example, "WRIF-FM HD1". The sub-FM channels will be displayed as "WRIF-FM HD2", "WRIF-FM HD3", 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 analog coverage area. Be aware that, like all radio transmission technology, terrain, time of day, vegetation and buildings can have a positive or negative effect on radio reception.
- Analog to digital/digital to analog blending: Analog 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.
AUDIO, MEDIA AND INTERNET
◀◀

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/ Mid-range/Treble cut or boost
- Time alignment (Digital program material 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.

Information about supported apps and compatible iOS devices are available on the Apple website: www.apple.com/ios/carplay/. Using apps that are not compatible with CarPlay may sometimes mean that the connection between the device and the vehicle is broken. Please note that Volvo is not responsible for the content of CarPlay.
When using map navigation via CarPlay, guidance will only be shown on the center display and not in the instrument panel or head-up display.
When navigation is started through Apple CarPlay, any current route guidance from the vehicle's own systems will be discontinued.
CarPlay apps can be controlled from the center display, an iOS device or with the right-side steering wheel keypad (for certain functions). The apps can also be voice-controlled
using Siri. Press and hold the ⓤ button on the steering wheel to start voice control with Siri. Press briefly to activate the vehicle's own voice control system. If Siri cuts off too soon, press and hold the ⓤ 9 button on the steering wheel..
By using Apple CarPlay you acknowledge the following: Apple CarPlay is a service provided by Apple Inc. under its terms and conditions. Volvo Cars is thus not responsible for Apple CarPlay or its features/applications. When using Apple CarPlay, certain information from your car (including its position) is transferred to your iPhone.

WHEELS AND TIRES
WHEELS AND TIRES
Tires
The function of the tires is to carry loads, provide traction on road surfaces, reduce vibrations and protect the wheels from wear.
The tires significantly influence the vehicle's driving characteristics. The type, dimensions, tire pressure and speed rating have a considerable impact on how the vehicle performs.
Your vehicle is equipped with tires according to the vehicle's tire information placard on the B-pillar (the structural member at the side of the vehicle, at the rear of the driver's door opening).

WARNING
A damaged tire could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
CAUTION
Some Volvo models are equipped with an Ultra High Performance tire and wheel combination designed to provide maximum dry pavement performance with consideration for hydroplaning resistance. They may be more susceptible to road hazard damage and, depending on driving conditions, may achieve a tread life of less than 30,000 km (20,000 miles). Even if this vehicle is equipped with Volvo's advanced AWD or stability system, these tires are not designed for winter driving, and should be replaced with winter tires when weather conditions dictate.
The tires have good road holding characteristics and offer good handling on dry and wet surfaces. It should be noted however that the tires have been developed to give these features on snow/ice-free surfaces.
Most models are equipped with "all-season" tires, which provide a somewhat higher degree of roadholding on slippery road surfaces than tires without the "all-season" rating. However, Volvo recommends using snow tires on all four wheels for good roadholding on icy or snow-covered roads.
When replacing tires, be sure that the new tires are the same size designation, type (radial) and preferably from the same manufacturer, on all four wheels. Otherwise there is a risk of altering the vehicle's roadholding and handling characteristics.
Recommended tires
On delivery, the car is equipped with Volvo original tires that have the VOL 1 marking on the side of the tires. These tires have been designed specifically for your vehicle. It is therefore important when replacing tires that the new tires have this same marking to help maintain the vehicle's driving characteristics, comfort and fuel consumption.
New tires

natural_image
Close-up of a car tire with a circular head and rim, no visible text or symbolsTires are perishable goods. After a few years, they will begin to harden and their friction properties will gradually deteriorate. Always replace tires with the freshest tires possible. This is particularly important for snow tires. A series of numbers is imprinted on the sidewall of the tire. The last four digits in the series is the Department of Transportation (DOT) stamp and indicates the week and year the tire was manufactured. The tire in the illustration has 0717 as the last four digits, which means it was manufactured week 7 of 2017.
Tire age
Tires degrade over time, even when they are not being used. It is recommended that tires generally be replaced after 6 years of normal service. Heat caused by hot climates, frequent high loading conditions or Ultra Violet (U.V.) exposure can accelerate the aging process. The temporary spare 2 should also be replaced at 6-year intervals, even if it has never been used. A tire with e.g., visible cracks or discoloration should be replaced immediately.
Tire economy
- Maintain correct tire pressure.
- Avoid fast starts, hard braking and tire screeching.
-
Tire wear increases with speed.
-
Correct front wheel alignment is very important.
• Unbalanced wheels impair tire economy and driving comfort. - Tires must maintain the same direction of rotation throughout their lifetime.
- When replacing tires, the tires with the most tread should be mounted on the rear wheels to reduce the chance of oversteer during hard braking.
- Hitting curbs or potholes can damage the tires and/or wheels permanently.
Tire rotation
Your vehicle has no required tire rotation. Driving style, tire pressure, climate and road conditions affect how quickly the tires age and exhibit signs of wear. Maintaining the correct tire pressure helps keep tread wear evenly distributed.
To help prevent differences in tread depth and wear patterns forming on the tires, the front and rear wheels should be rotated, i.e. the front tires moved to the rear and the rear tires moved to the front. Ideally, tire rotation should be done the first time after approximately 5000 km (ca 3100 miles) and thereafter at 10,000 km (approx. 6200 miles) intervals.
If you have any questions regarding tread depth, Volvo recommends consulting an
authorized Volvo workshop. If significant differences in wear (> 1 mm difference in tread depth) between the tires have already occurred, the least worn tires should always be mounted on the rear wheels. A front-wheel skid (understeer) is usually easier to control than a rear-wheel skid (oversteer). If the front wheels skid, the vehicle will continue in a straight line instead of the rear wheels skidding to the side, which could cause you to completely lose control of the vehicle. It is therefore important that the rear wheels never lose grip before the front wheels.
Storing wheels and tires
When storing complete wheels (tires mounted on rims), they should be suspended off the floor or placed on their sides on the floor.
Tires not mounted on rims should be stored on their sides or standing upright, but should not be suspended.
CAUTION
Tires should preferably be stored in a cool, dry, dark place, and should never be stored in close proximity to solvents, gasoline, oils, etc.

WARNING
- The wheel and tire sizes for your Volvo are specified to meet stringent stability and handling requirements. Unapproved wheel/tire size combinations can negatively affect your vehicle's stability and handling.
- Any damage caused by installation of unapproved wheel/tire size combinations will not be covered by your new vehicle warranty. Volvo assumes no responsibility for death, injury, or expenses that may result from such installations.

Tire direction of rotation
Tires with tread designed to roll in only one direction are marked with an arrow on the sidewall.

natural_image
Top-down view of a car showing the wheel rim and side profile, with an inset highlighting the wheel's edge detail (no text or symbols present)The arrow shows the tire's direction of rotation.
- The tire should maintain the same direction of rotation throughout its service life.
- Tires should only be moved between the front and back, never from right to left or vice versa.
- Incorrectly mounted tires impair the vehicle's braking properties and ability to force aside rain, snow and slush.
- The tires with the most tread should always be mounted on the rear wheels to help reduce the risk of skidding.

NOTE
Use tires of the same type, dimensions and make (manufacturer) on each axle.

Tread wear indicator
The tread wear indicator shows the status of the tire's tread.

natural_image
3D rendering of a row of rectangular blocks with two black blocks placed on top (no text or symbols visible)The tread wear indicator is a narrow elevated strip running across the tire's longitudinal tread grooves. The letters TWI (Tread Wear Indicator) are visible on the side of the tire. When approximately 1.6 mm (1/16 inch) is left on the tread, the tread will be at the same height as the tread wear indicator. Replace the tire as soon as possible. Tires with low tread offer very poor traction in rain or snow.

Tire sidewall designations
The following information can be found on a tire's sidewall.

Federal law mandates that tire manufacturers place standardized information on the sidewall of all tires (see the illustration).
The vehicle has been certified with certain combinations of wheels and tires.
The following information is listed on the tire sidewall:
The tire designation:
i
NOTE
Please be aware that the following tire designation is an example only and that this particular tire may not be available on your vehicle.
- 215: The width of the tire (in millimeters) from sidewall edge to sidewall edge. The larger the number, the wider the tire.
- 65: The ratio of the tire's height to its width in percent.
- R: Radial tire (the designation RF and the symbol indicate that the vehicle is equipped with optional self-supporting run flat tires 4 ).
- 15: The diameter of the wheel rim (in inches).
- 95: The tire's load index. In this example, a load index of 95 equals a maximum load of 1521 lbs (690 kg).
- H: The tire's speed rating, or the maximum speed at which the tire is designed to be driven for extended periods of time, carrying a permissible load for the vehicle, and with correct inflation pressure. For example, H indicates a speed rating of 210 km/h (130 mph).

NOTE
The tire's load index and speed rating may not appear on the sidewall because they are not required by law.
- M+S or M/S = Mud and Snow, AT = All Terrain, AS = All Season
- U.S. DOT Tire Identification Number (TIN): This begins with the letters "DOT" and indicates that the tire meets all federal standards. The next two numbers are the factory code where the tire was manufactured, the next two are the tire size code and the last four numbers represent the week and year the tire was made. For example, 0717 means that the tire was manufactured during week 7 of 2017. The numbers in between are marketing codes used at the manufacturer's discretion. This information helps a tire manufacturer identify a tire for safety recall purposes.
- Tire Ply Composition and Material Used: Indicates the number of plies indicates or the number of layers of rubber-coated fabric in the tire tread and sidewall. Tire manufacturers also must indicate the ply materials in the tire and the sidewall, which include steel, nylon, polyester, and others.
- Maximum Load: Indicates the maximum load in pounds and kilograms that can be
carried by the tire. Refer to the vehicle's tire information placard located on the B-Pillar for the correct tire pressure for your vehicle.
- Treadwear, Traction, and Temperature grades.
- Maximum permissible inflation pressure: The greatest amount of air pressure that should ever be put in the tire. This limit is set by the tire manufacturer.
Speed Symbol
A tire's Speed Symbol (SS) indicates the maximum speed for which the tire has been certified and should be at least equivalent to the vehicle's top speed.
Winter tires, with or without studs, are exceptions and may use a lower SS. When winter tires are installed, the vehicle may not be driven faster than the tires' SS.
The vehicle's speed should always be determined by the posted speed limit and traffic and road conditions, not the tire's SS.
The following table indicates the maximum permissible speed for each SS.
| M 130 | km/h (81 mph) |
| Q 160 | km/h (100 mph) |
| T 190 | km/h (118 mph) |
| H 210 | km/h (130 mph) |
| V 240 | km/h (149 mph) |
| W 270 | km/h (168 mph) |
| Y 300 | km/h (186 mph) |

WARNING
- The wheel and tire sizes for your Volvo are specified to meet stringent stability and handling requirements. Unapproved wheel/tire size combinations can negatively affect your vehicle's stability and handling.
- Any damage caused by installation of unapproved wheel/tire size combinations will not be covered by your new vehicle warranty. Volvo assumes no responsibility for death, injury, or expenses that may result from such installations.

WHEELS AND TIRES
Uniform Tire Quality Grading ALL PASSENGER VEHICLE TIRES MUST CONFORM TO FEDERAL SAFETY REQUIREMENTS IN ADDITION TO THESE GRADES.
Quality grades can be found, where applicable, on the tire sidewall between the tread shoulder and maximum section width. For example:
Treadwear 200 Traction AA Temperature A
TREADWEAR
The treadwear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of the tire when tested under controlled conditions on a specified government test course. For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one and one half (1½) times as well on the government course as a tire graded 100. The relative performance of tires depends upon the actual conditions of their use, however, and many depart significantly from the norm due to variation in driving habits, maintenance practices and differences in road characteristics and climate.
TRACTION
The traction grades, from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B, and C, as measured under controlled conditions on specified government test surfaces of asphalt and concrete. A tire marked C may have poor traction performance.
WARNING
The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on braking (straight-ahead) traction tests and is not a measure of cornering (turning) traction.
TEMPERATURE
The temperature grades are A (the highest), B, and C, representing the tire's resistance to the generation of heat and its ability to dissipate heat when tested under controlled conditions on a specified indoor laboratory test wheel. Sustained high temperature can cause the material of the tire to degenerate and reduce tire life, and excessive temperature can lead to sudden tire failure. The grade C corresponds to a minimum level of performance that all passenger vehicle tires must meet under the Federal Motor Safety Standard No. 109. Grades B and A represent higher levels of performance on the laboratory test wheel than the minimum required by law.
WARNING
The temperature grade for this tire is established for a tire that is properly inflated and not overloaded. Excessive speed, under-inflation, or excessive loading, either separately or in combination, can cause heat buildup and tire failure.

Checking tire pressure
Correct inflation pressure helps improve driving stability, save fuel and increase the service life of the tires.
Tire pressure decreases over time, which is normal. Tire pressure also varies depending on the ambient temperature. Driving on underinflated tires could cause the vehicle to overheat and lead to damage. Tire pressure affects traveling comfort, road noise and driving characteristics.
Check the pressure in the tires every month. Use the recommended inflation pressure for cold tires to help maintain good tire performance. Under-inflated or over-inflated tires could cause uneven tread wear.
Use an air pressure gauge and check the inflation pressure on all the tires, including the spare tire 4 , at least once a month and before long trips. Volvo recommends buying a reliable air pressure gauge, as the automatic gauges provided at service stations may be inaccurate.
WARNING
- Under-inflation is the most common cause of tire failure and may result in severe tire cracking, tread separation, or "blow-out," with unexpected loss of vehicle control and increased risk of injury.
- Under-inflated tires reduce the load carrying capacity of your vehicle.
Cold tires
Inflation pressure should be checked when the tires are cold. The tires are considered to be cold when they have the same temperature as the surrounding (ambient) air. This temperature is normally reached after the vehicle has been parked for at least 3 hours.
After driving for approximately 1.6 km (1 mile), the tires are considered to be warm. If you need to drive longer than that to inflate the tires, check and record the inflation pressure of the tires first and inflate accordingly when you arrive at the pump.
When the ambient temperature changes, so does the inflation pressure. A 10-degree temperature drop causes a corresponding drop in inflation pressure of 1 psi (7 kPa). Check the inflation pressure of the tires regularly and adjust to the correct pressure, which can be
found on the vehicle's tire information decal or certification label.
If you check inflation pressure when the tires are warm, you should never release air. The tires become warm after driving and it is normal for warm tires to have an inflation pressure above the recommended pressure for cold tires. A warm tire with an inflation pressure equal to or under the recommended pressure for cold tires could be significantly underinflated.

WHEELS AND TIRES
Adjusting tire pressure
Tire pressure decreases over time, which is normal. The tire pressure must therefore be adjusted to maintain the recommended tire pressure.
Use the recommended inflation pressure for cold tires to help maintain good tire performance and even wear.

NOTE
To help prevent incorrect inflation pressure, pressure should be checked when the tires are cold. The tires are considered to be cold when they have reached the same temperature as the ambient temperature (about 3 hours after the vehicle was last driven). After driving for a few kilometers, the tires will warm up and the pressure will increase.
- Remove the valve cap from the tire and press the air pressure gauge firmly onto the valve.
-
Inflate the tire to the correct inflation pressure; see the tire pressure placard on the driver's side B pillar for recommended pressures for factory-mounted tires.
-
Screw the valve cap back on.
NOTE
- After inflating a tire, always replace the valve cap to help prevent valve damage caused by gravel, dirt, etc.
-
Use plastic valve caps only. Metal caps could corrode and become difficult to remove.
-
Visually inspect the tire to make sure there are no nails or other embedded objects that could puncture the tire and cause air leakage.
- Check the sidewalls to make sure there are no gouges, cuts, bulges or other irregularities.
- Repeat this procedure for each tire, including the spare tire 4 .
NOTE
If you have overfilled the tire, release air by pushing on the metal stem in the center of the valve. Then recheck the pressure with your tire gauge.
Some spare tires require higher inflation pressure than the other tires. Consult the tire inflation pressure table or the inflation pressure decal.

Tire pressure monitoring system\*
The tire inflation pressure monitoring system 6 provides an indicator symbol in the instrument panel if pressure is too low in one or more tires.

This symbol illuminates to indicate low inflation pressure. Check the inflation pressure in the Car Status app in the center display.
If there is a system malfunc-
tion, the inflation pressure warning symbol will flash for approximately one minute and then glow steadily.
System description
The tire pressure monitoring system measures differences in rotational speed between the wheels through the ABS system to determine if the tires are properly inflated. If inflation pressure in a tire is too low, its diameter (and consequently its rotational speed) changes. By comparing the tires with each other, the system can determine if the pressure in one or more tires is too low.

WHEELS AND TIRES
General information about the tire pressure monitoring system
In the following description, the tire monitoring system is generally referred to as TPMS.
Each tire, including the spare (if provided) 7 should be checked monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is significantly under-inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure.
Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle's handling and stopping ability. Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver's responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when the system is not operating properly. The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire pressure telltale. When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for approximately one minute and then remain continuously illuminated. This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunction exists. When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended.
TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS from functioning properly.
Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function properly.
To keep in mind
- Always save the new inflation pressure in the system after changing a tire or adjusting the inflation pressure.
- If you switch to a tire of another size than the factory-mounted tires, the system must be reset by storing a new inflation pressure for these tires to avoid false warnings.
- If a spare wheel 8 is used, it is possible that the tire pressure monitoring system will not work correctly due to the differences between the wheels.
- The system does not replace the need for regular tire inspection and maintenance.
- It is not possible to deactivate the tire pressure monitoring system.

WARNING
- Incorrect inflation pressure could lead to tire failure, which could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
- The system cannot predict sudden tire damage.

Saving new reference values for tire inflation pressure monitoring\*
In order for the tire inflation pressure monitoring system 9 to function correctly, inflation pressure reference values must be saved correctly. To help ensure that the system can correctly alert the driver of low inflation pressure, this must be done each time the tires are changed or the inflation pressure is adjusted.
For example, when driving with a heavy load or at high speeds (over 160 km/h (100 mph)), tire pressure should be adjusted to the Volvo-recommended tire pressure values. The system should then be reset by saving the new inflation pressure.
To store the new inflation pressure as a reference value in the system:
- Switch off the ignition.
-
Inflate the tire to the correct inflation pressure; see the tire pressure placard on the driver's side B pillar for recommended pressures for factory-mounted tires.
-
Start the vehicle.
-
Open the Car Status app in App view.
-
Tap TPMS.
NOTE
The vehicle must be stationary for the Store Pressure button to be selectable.
- Tap Store Pressure.
- Tap OK to confirm that the tire pressure in all four tires has been checked and adjusted.
- Drive the vehicle until the new inflation pressure has been saved. The new inflation pressure is stored when the vehicle is driven at speeds over 35 km/h (22 mph).
When enough data has been collected for the system to detect low inflation pressure, the animation showing the progress of the storing procedure will disappear from the center display. The system will not provide any further confirmation that the new inflation pressure has been stored.
If storing cannot be performed, Storing pressure unsuccessful. Try again. will be displayed.

Spare wheel 14
The spare wheel is a Temporary Spare and can be used to temporarily replace a punctured tire on one of the vehicle's regular wheels.
The spare wheel is only intended for temporary use. Replace it with a normal wheel as soon as possible.
The driving characteristics of the vehicle change and ground clearance reduces when the spare wheel is used. Do not wash the vehicle in an automatic car wash while using the Temporary Spare.
The recommended tire pressure must be maintained regardless of at which position the temporary spare wheel is used on the vehicle.
If the spare wheel is damaged, a replacement can be purchased from a Volvo retailer.
WARNING
Current legislation prohibits the use of the "Temporary Spare" wheel other than as a temporary replacement for a punctured tire. It must be replaced as soon as possible by a standard tire. Roadholding and handling may be affected with the "Temporary Spare" wheel in use.
WARNING
- Never drive faster than 80 km/h (50 mph) with a spare tire mounted on the vehicle.
- The vehicle must never be driven with more than one "Temporary Spare" wheel mounted.
- Driving with a spare wheel may alter the driving characteristics of the vehicle. Replace the spare wheel with a normal wheel as soon as possible.
- The spare wheel is smaller than the normal wheel, which affects the vehicle's ground clearance. Watch for high curbs and do not wash the vehicle in an automatic car wash when a spare wheel is mounted.
- Follow the manufacturer's recommended tire inflation pressure for the spare wheel.
- On all-wheel drive vehicles, the drive on the rear axle can be disconnected.
- If the spare wheel is mounted on the front axle, snow chains must not be used.
• The spare wheel must not be repaired.
CAUTION
The vehicle must not be driven with tires of different dimensions or with a spare wheel other than the one that came with the vehicle. The use of different size wheels can seriously damage your vehicle's transmission.

When switching between regular tires and snow tires, mark the tires according to which side they were mounted on, e.g. L for left and R for right.
Contact a Volvo retailer for assistance determining the most suitable rims and tires.
Studded tires
Studded tires should be broken in by driving 500–1000 km (300–600 miles) slowly and gently to help the studs settle properly in the tires. This gives the tire, and especially the studs, a longer service life.
NOTE
Legal requirements concerning the use of studded tires may vary. Always follow local laws and regulations.
Tread depth
Road conditions with ice, slush and low temperatures place considerably higher demands
on tires than summer conditions. Volvo therefore recommends not driving on snow tires that have a tread depth of less than 4 mm (0.15 inch).

Snow chains
Using snow chains and/or snow tires can help improve traction in winter driving conditions.
Volvo does not recommend use of snow chains on wheel dimensions other than these 16 ;
Use Volvo genuine snow chains or equivalent snow chains that are suitable for the vehicle model and the tire and wheel sizes. Only one-sided snow chains are permitted.
If uncertain about snow chains, Volvo recommends contacting an authorized Volvo workshop. Use of the wrong snow chains could cause serious damage to the vehicle and result in an accident.
! CAUTION
Snow chains can be used on the vehicle, with the following restrictions:
- Always follow the manufacturer's installation instructions carefully. Install chains as tightly as possible and retighten periodically.
- Only put snow chains on the front wheels (also applies to all-wheel drive vehicles).
- If accessory, aftermarket or "custom" tires and wheels with different dimensions than the original tires and wheels are used, snow chains in some cases may NOT be used. Sufficient distance between the chains and brakes, suspension and body components must be maintained.
- Check local regulations regarding the use of snow chains before installing.
- Never exceed the snow chain manufacturer's specified maximum speed limit. Under no circumstances should you exceed 50 km/h (30 mph).
-
Avoid bumps, holes or sharp turns when driving with snow chains.
-
Avoid driving on surfaces without snow as this wears out both the snow chains and the tires.
- The handling of the vehicle can be adversely affected when driving with chains. Avoid fast or sharp turns as well as locked wheel braking.
- Some types of strap-on chains affect brake components and therefore must NOT be used.
Consult a Volvo retailer for more information about snow chains.

WHEELS AND TIRES
Tire sealing system 17
The temporary tire sealing system can be used to seal a puncture in a tire or to check and adjust the pressure in the tire.
Models equipped with a spare wheel 18 do not have the tire sealing system.

WARNING
California Proposition 65
Operating, servicing and maintaining a passenger vehicle can expose you to chemicals including engine exhaust, carbon monoxide, phthalates, and lead, which are known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. To minimize exposure, avoid breathing exhaust, do not idle the engine except as necessary, service your vehicle in a well ventilated area and wear gloves or wash your hands frequently when servicing your vehicle. For more information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov/passenger-vehicle.
The tire sealing system consists of a compressor and a bottle containing sealing compound. The sealing functions as a temporary repair.
i NOTE
The sealing compound effectively seals tires with punctures in the tread but may not be able to fully seal tires with punctures in the sidewall. Do not use the tire sealing system on tires with large tears, cracks or similar damage.
i NOTE
The compressor is intended for temporary tire sealing and is approved by Volvo.
Location
The tire sealing system is located in a foam block under the cargo compartment floor.

1. Preparations
Turn on the vehicle's hazard warning flashers if the tire sealing system is to be used in an area with traffic.
If the puncture was caused by a nail or similar object, do not remove it. It will help seal the hole.
- Peel off the speed limit sticker from the side of the compressor. Affix the decal to a clearly visible location on the windshield to remind the driver not to exceed this speed limit. Do not drive faster than 80 km/h (50 mph) while using a tire that has been temporarily repaired with the tire sealing system.
- Make sure the switch is in the 0 (Off) position and take out the electric cable and the hose.
- Unscrew the orange cover on the compressor and unscrew the cap on the sealing compound bottle.
- Screw the bottle onto the bottle holder as far as possible.
The bottle and the bottle holder are equipped with catches to help prevent the sealing compound from leaking. Once the bottle is screwed into place into the bottle holder, it cannot be unscrewed. The bottle can only be removed by a workshop 20 .

WARNING
Do not unscrew the bottle. It is equipped with a catch to prevent leakage.
- Unscrew the tire's valve cap and screw the hose's valve connector as far as possible onto the valve.
Be sure the air release valve on the compressor's hose is completely closed.
7. Begin tire sealing procedure
Connect the electrical cable to the nearest 12 V outlet and start the vehicle.

NOTE
Make sure that none of the vehicle's other 12 V sockets are used while the compressor is running.

WARNING
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle while the engine is running.

WARNING
Inhaling exhaust fumes could lead to serious injury. Never leave the engine running in an enclosed space or a space without sufficient ventilation.
- Start the compressor by moving the switch to the I (On) position.
When the compressor starts, the pressure can increase up to 6 bar (88 psi), but the pressure will decrease after approx. 30 seconds.

WARNING
Never stand next to a tire being inflated with the compressor. If cracks, bulges, etc. form on the tire, switch off the compressor immediately. The vehicle should not be driven. Call roadside assistance to have the vehicle towed to a workshop for inspection/replacement of the tire. Volvo recommends an authorized workshop.
- Inflate the tire for 7 minutes.

CAUTION
To help avoid overheating, the compressor should never be used for more than 10 minutes at a time.
- Switch off the compressor and check the inflation pressure using the air pressure gauge. The inflation pressure should be between 1.8 bar (22 psi) and 3.5 bar (51 psi). If the inflation pressure is too high, use the air release valve to release air.

WARNING
If pressure falls below 1.8 bar (22 psi), the hole in the tire may be too large. The vehicle should not be driven. Call roadside assistance to have the vehicle towed to a workshop for inspection/replacement of the tire. Volvo recommends an authorized workshop.
-
Switch off the compressor and remove the electrical cable.
-
Unscrew the hose from the tire's valve and screw the valve cap back on.

- Immediately drive the vehicle at least 3 km (2 miles) at a maximum speed of 80 km/h (50 mph) to allow the sealing compound to seal the tire, and then recheck the inflation pressure.

WARNING
During the tire's first revolution, some sealing compound may spray out of the puncture hole. Before driving away, make sure that no one is near the vehicle who could be sprayed with sealing compound. Make sure no one is within 2 meters (7 feet) of the vehicle.
- Rechecking the inflation pressure
Connect the hose to the tire's valve and screw the hose connector onto the valve as far as possible. The compressor must be switched off.
WHEELS AND TIRES
-
Check the inflation pressure on the air pressure gauge.
-
If the pressure is under 1.3 bar (19 psi), the tire is not sufficiently sealed. The vehicle should not be driven. Call roadside assistance to have the vehicle towed.
- If the inflation pressure is higher than 1.3 bar (19 psi), the tire must be inflated to the inflation pressure specified on the tire pressure decal on the driver's side door pillar (1 bar = 100 kPa = 14.5 psi). If the inflation pressure is too high, use the air release valve to release air.

WARNING
Check inflation pressure regularly.
Volvo recommends driving to the nearest authorized Volvo workshop to have the tire replaced/ repaired. Inform the workshop that the tire contains sealing compound.
The sealing compound bottle and the hose must be replaced after use. Volvo recommends contacting an authorized Volvo workshop for replacement.

Determining the vehicle's permitted weight
Properly loading your vehicle will provide maximum return of vehicle design performance.
Weight designations
Before loading your vehicle, familiarize yourself with the following terms for determining your vehicle's weight ratings, with or without a trailer, from the vehicle's Federal/Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS/CMVSS) label, and the vehicle's tire information placard:
Curb weight
The weight of the vehicle including a full tank of fuel and all standard equipment. It does not include passengers, cargo, or optional equipment.
Capacity weight
All weight added to the curb weight, including cargo and optional equipment. When towing, towbar weight is also part of cargo weight.
Permissible axle weight
The maximum allowable weight that can be carried by a single axle (front or rear). These numbers are shown on the Federal/Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS/CMVSS) label. The total load on each axle must never exceed its maximum permissible weight.
▶▶
WHEELS AND TIRES
Gross vehicle weight (GVW)
The vehicle's curb weight + cargo + passengers.
Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit
- Locate the statement "the combined weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed XXX kg or XXX lbs." on your vehicle's placard.
- Determine the combined weight of the driver and passengers that will be riding in your vehicle.
- Subtract the combined weight of the driver and passengers from XXX kg or XXX lbs.
- The resulting figure equals the available amount of cargo and luggage load capacity. For example, if the "XXX" amount equals 1400 lbs. and there will be five 150 lb. passengers in your vehicle, the amount of available cargo and luggage load capacity is 650 lbs. (1400 - 750 (5 × 150) = 650 lbs.)
-
Determine the combined weight of luggage and cargo being loaded on the vehicle. That weight may not safely exceed the available cargo and luggage load capacity calculated in Step 4.
-
If your vehicle will be towing a trailer, load from your trailer will be transferred to your vehicle. Consult this manual to determine how this reduces the available cargo and luggage load capacity of your vehicle.
WARNING
- Exceeding the permissible axle weight, gross vehicle weight, or any other weight rating limits can cause tire overheating resulting in permanent deformation or catastrophic failure.
- Do not use replacement tires with lower load carrying capacities than the tires that were original equipment on the vehicle because this will lower the vehicle's GVW rating. Use only tires with the correct load carrying capacity. Consult your Volvo retailer for information.

LOADING, STORAGE AND PASSENGER COMPARTMENT
Loading recommendations
There are a number of things that are important to consider when carrying loads in or on the vehicle.
Load-carrying capacity is determined by the vehicle's curb weight. The total weight of all passengers and any installed accessories reduces the vehicle's load-carrying capacity by the corresponding amount.

WARNING
The vehicle's driving characteristics change depending on the weight and position of the load.
Loading the cargo compartment/trunk
Keep the following in mind when loading:
- Position objects so they are pressing against the rear seat backrests.
- Heavy objects should be positioned as low as possible. Avoid placing heavy objects on folded-down seat backrests.
- Cover sharp corners with a soft cloth or similar to help prevent damage to the upholstery.
- Use the load anchoring eyelets and tensioning straps or similar to secure all objects.

WARNING
In a head-on collision at a speed of 50 km/h (30 mph), an unsecured object weighing 20 kg (44 pounds) can reach a projectile weight equivalent to 1000 kg (2200 pounds).

WARNING
If objects are loaded higher than the upper edge of the side windows, leave a 10 cm (4 in.) space between the objects and the window. Objects placed closer to this could impede the function of the inflatable curtain concealed inside the headlining.

WARNING
Always secure the load. Otherwise, it may shift during heavy braking and injure people in the vehicle.
Cover sharp edges and sharp corners with something soft.
Turn off the engine and apply the parking brake when loading/unloading long objects. Otherwise, it is possible for the load to reach the gear lever or gear selector and move it to a drive position – which could cause the vehicle to begin rolling.
Extra cargo space
The rear seat backrests can be folded down* to increase cargo space in the cargo compart-
ment/trunk and simplify loading. If the rear seat backrests are folded down, make sure that no objects loaded into the vehicle prevent the WHIPS system for the front seats from functioning correctly.
A ski hatch* in the rear seat can be folded down to carry skis or other long, thin objects.

• Leveling control* and suspension (p. 418) - Weights (p. 623)
Roof loads and load carriers
Volvo-developed load carriers are recommended for carrying loads on the roof of the vehicle.
Volvo load carriers are specially designed to help prevent damage to your vehicle and help ensure maximum safety while driving. Volvo load carriers are available from authorized Volvo retailers.
Carefully follow the installation instructions provided with the load carriers.
- Distribute the load evenly throughout the load carriers. Place heavier cargo at the bottom of the load.
- Check periodically to ensure that the load carriers and load are properly secured. Secure the load firmly using tie straps or similar.
- If the load is longer than the vehicle, such as a canoe or kayak, attach the towing eyelet in its front outlet and secure the tie straps in it.
- The vehicle's wind resistance and fuel consumption increase with the size of the load.
- Drive smoothly. Avoid rapid acceleration, hard braking and fast cornering.
WARNING
The vehicle's center of gravity and driving characteristics are altered by roof loads. Follow the vehicle's specifications regarding weights and maximum permitted load.

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
Volvo's service program
To keep the vehicle as safe and reliable as possible, follow the Volvo service schedule specified in the Warranty and Maintenance Records Information booklet.

WARNING
California Proposition 65
Operating, servicing and maintaining a passenger vehicle can expose you to chemicals including engine exhaust, carbon monoxide, phthalates, and lead, which are known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. To minimize exposure, avoid breathing exhaust, do not idle the engine except as necessary, service your vehicle in a well ventilated area and wear gloves or wash your hands frequently when servicing your vehicle. For more information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov/passenger-vehicle.
Volvo recommends having an authorized Volvo workshop perform service and maintenance. Volvo workshops have the staff, service literature and special tools that can provide the highest quality of service.

CAUTION
To ensure the Volvo warranty is not invalidated, check and follow the Warranty and Service Records Information booklet.
Introduction
The maintenance services contain several checks that require special instruments and tools and therefore must be performed by a qualified technician. To keep your Volvo in top condition, specify time-tested and proven Genuine Volvo Parts and Accessories.
The Federal Clean Air Act - U.S.
The Federal Clean Air Act requires vehicle manufacturers to furnish written instructions to the ultimate purchaser to assure the proper servicing and function of the components that control emissions. These services, which are listed in the "Warranty and Service Records Information" booklet, are not covered by the warranty. You will be required to pay for labor and material used.
Maintenance
Your Volvo passed several major inspections before it was delivered to you, in accordance with Volvo specifications. The maintenance procedures outlined in the Warranty and Service Records Information booklet, many of which will positively affect your vehicle's emissions, should be performed as indicated. It is recommended that receipts for vehicle emission maintenance be retained in case questions arise concerning maintenance. Inspection and maintenance should also be performed anytime a malfunction is observed or suspected.
Applicable warranties - U.S./Canada
In accordance with applicable U.S. and Canadian regulations, the following list of warranties is provided.
• New Vehicle Limited Warranty
• Parts and Accessories Limited Warranty
• Corrosion Protection Limited Warranty
- Seat Belt and Supplemental Restraint Systems Limited Warranty
• Emission Design and Defect Warranty
• Emission Performance Warranty
These are federal warranties; other warranties are provided as required by state/provincial law. Refer to your separate Warranty and Service Records Information booklet for detailed information concerning each of the warranties.
Periodic maintenance helps minimize emissions

NOTE
- Refer to your Service and Warranty Booklet for a comprehensive service and maintenance schedule up to 240,000 km (150,000 miles). This program contains inspections and services necessary for the proper function of your vehicle and includes components that affect vehicle emissions.
- The Warranty and Service Records Information booklet also contains detailed information concerning the warranties that apply to your vehicle.
On-board Diagnostic System
OBD II is part of your vehicle's computerized engine management system. It stores diagnostic information about your vehicle's emission controls. It can light the Check Engine light (MIL) if it detects an emission control "fault." A "fault" is a component or system that is not performing within an expected range. A fault may be permanent or temporary. OBD II will store a message about any fault.
Emission inspection readiness
How do states use OBD II for emission inspections?
Many states connect a computer directly to a vehicle's OBD II system. The inspector can then read "faults." In some states, this type of inspection has replaced the tailpipe emission test.
How can my vehicle fail OBD II emission inspection?
Your vehicle can fail OBD II emission inspection for any of the following reasons:
- If your Check Engine (MIL) light is lit, your vehicle may fail inspection.
- If your vehicle's Check Engine light was lit, but went out without any action on your part, OBD II will still have a recorded fault. Your vehicle may pass or fail, depending on the inspection practices in your area.
- If you had recent service that required disconnecting the battery, OBD II diagnostic information may be incomplete and "not ready" for inspection. A vehicle that is not ready may fail inspection.

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
your vehicle diagnosed and, if necessary, serviced by a qualified Volvo technician.
- If you recently had service for a lit Check Engine light, or if you had service that required disconnecting the battery, a period of driving is necessary to bring the OBD II system to "ready" for inspection. Two half-hour trips of mixed stop-and-go/ highway driving are typically needed to allow OBD II to reach readiness. Your Volvo retailer can provide you with more information on planning a trip.
- Maintain your vehicle in accordance with your vehicle's maintenance schedule.
Owner maintenance
Periodic maintenance requirements and intervals are described in your vehicle's Warranty and Service Records Information booklet.
The following points can be carried out between the normally scheduled maintenance services.
Each time the vehicle is refueled:
- Check the engine oil level.
- Clean the windshield, windshield wipers, headlights, and taillights.
MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
Monthly:
- Check cold tire pressure in all tires. Inspect the tires for wear.
- Check that engine coolant and other fluid levels are between the indicated "min" and "max" markings.
- Clean interior glass surfaces with a glass cleaner and soft paper towels.
- Wipe driver information displays with a soft cloth.
- Visually inspect battery terminals for corrosion. Corrosion may indicate a loose terminal connector, or a battery near the end of its useful service life. Consult your Volvo retailer for additional information.
As needed:
Wash the vehicle, including the undercarriage, to reduce wear that can be caused by a buildup of dirt, and corrosion that can be caused by salt residues.
Clean leaves and twigs from air intake vents at the base of the windshield, and from other places where they may collect.

Data transfer between vehicle and workshop over Wi-Fi
Volvo workshops have a designated Wi-Fi network for data transfer between your vehicle and the workshop. Your visit to the workshop will be easier and more effective when diagnostics information and software can be transferred over the workshop's network. At the workshop, your service technician can connect your vehicle to the workshop's Wi-Fi network to perform troubleshooting and download software. For this type of communication, the vehicle only connects to a workshop's network. It is not possible to connect the vehicle to another Wi-Fi network (e.g. your home network) in the same way as to a workshop's network.
Connecting with remote key
Connection is usually managed by the service technician, who will use the remote key buttons. It is therefore important to bring a key with buttons with you when you visit the workshop. Pressing the lock button on the remote key three times will connect the vehicle to the workshop's Wi-Fi network.
When the car is connected to a Wi-Fi network, the 🔊 symbol appears in the center display.

WARNING
The vehicle may not be driven when it is connected to the workshop's networks and systems.

Hoisting the vehicle
When hoisting the vehicle, it is important that the jack is positioned on the designated points under the vehicle.

natural_image
Technical illustration of a car showing front and side views with internal components (no text or symbols)The triangles in the plastic covering indicate where the jack attachment points/lifting points (red areas) are located.

NOTE
For vehicles with Leveling Control*: If the vehicle is equipped with pneumatic suspension, this feature must be turned off before the vehicle is lifted onto a tow truck.

NOTE
Volvo recommends only using the jack intended for your specific vehicle model. If a jack other than that recommended by Volvo is used, follow the instructions included with the equipment.
The vehicle's ordinary jack is only intended to be used in temporary situations for short periods of time, such as when changing wheels in the event of a flat tire. If the vehicle needs to be lifted more frequently, or for a longer period of time than for a wheel change, a garage jack or hoist is recommended. Always follow the instructions for use provided with the equipment.
▶▶

WARNING
- Apply the parking brake and put the gear selector in the Park (P) position.
- Block the wheels standing on the ground, use rigid wooden blocks or large stones.
- Check that the jack is not damaged, the threads are properly lubricated and it is free from dirt.
- Be sure the jack is on a firm, level, non-slippery surface and that it is upright and not leaning.
- The jack must correctly engage in the jack attachment.
- No objects should be placed between the base of the jack and the ground, or between the jack and the attachment bar on the vehicle.
- Never let anyone remain in the vehicle when it is raised on a jack.
- If a tire must be changed near passing traffic, make sure all passengers move to a safe location.
- Use a jack intended for the vehicle when changing a tire. For any other job, use stands to support the vehicle.
- Never crawl under or allow any part of your body to be extended under a vehicle supported by a jack.
WARNING
If the vehicle is lifted on a garage jack, the jack must be placed under one of the four lifting points. Make sure that the vehicle is correctly positioned on the jack and that it cannot slide off. Make sure the jack plate has a rubber pad to help keep the vehicle stable and prevent damage. Always use axle stands or similar.
When not in use, the jack* should be kept in its storage compartment under the cargo compartment floor.
Read through all instructions before starting. Before raising the vehicle using a jack or lift, take out all the tools you will need.
- Turn on the vehicle's hazard warning flashers if e.g. a wheel change must be performed in an area with traffic.
- Apply the parking brake and put the gear selector in P, or first gear if the vehicle has a manual transmission.
If the vehicle is equipped with Leveling Control*, this feature must be turned off before the vehicle is lifted onto a tow truck.
- Place chocks in front of and behind the wheels that are still on the ground. For example, use heavy wooden blocks or large stones.
- Position the jack or garage lift arms at the designated points under the vehicle. The triangle markings on the plastic cover indicate where the jack attachment points/lifting points are located. There are two jack attachment points on each side of the vehicle. There is a groove for the jack at each attachment point.

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
Starter battery
The starter battery is used to start the electrical system and power the starter motor and other electrical equipment in the vehicle. The vehicle has a single-pole electrical system that uses the chassis and engine mount as conductors.
The vehicle has a voltage-regulated alternating current generator.
The starter battery is a 12 V battery, dimensioned for the carbon dioxide-reducing functions Start/Stop and regenerative charging and to support the function of the vehicle's various systems.
The service life and performance of the starter battery are affected by factors such as driving style, driving conditions, climate, battery discharges, number of starts, etc.
- Never disconnect the starter battery while the engine is running.
- Make sure the cables to the starter battery are correctly connected and the clamps are securely tightened.
WARNING
- Batteries generate hydrogen gas, which is flammable and explosive.
- Do not connect the jumper cable to any part of the fuel system or to any moving parts. Avoid touching hot manifolds.
- Battery fluid contains sulfuric acid. Do not allow battery fluid to contact eyes, skin, fabrics or painted surfaces.
- If contact occurs, flush the affected area immediately with water. Obtain medical help immediately if eyes are affected.
- Never expose the battery to open flame or electric spark. Do not smoke near the battery. Failure to follow the instructions for jump starting can lead to injury.
Starter battery service life and capacity
The service life of the starter battery is affected by several factors, such as number of starts, battery discharges, driving style, driving conditions, climate, etc. The starting capacity of the battery reduces gradually over time. The battery must therefore be recharged if the vehicle is not used for a long period of time or if it is only driven short distances. Severe cold
further limits starting capacity. If the starter battery becomes discharged too many times, its service life will be shortened.
To help keep the starter battery in good condition, the vehicle should be driven at least 15 minutes per week or the battery should be connected to a battery charger with automatic trickle charging. A starter battery that is always kept fully charged has the maximum service life.
Location

natural_image
Interior view of a vehicle showing a battery unit and wheel assembly (no visible text or symbols)The starter battery is located in the trunk.

WARNING
If the starter battery is disconnected, the function for automatic opening and closing must be reset to function correctly. A reset is required in order for the pinch protection to work.
CAUTION
On certain models, the battery is secured with a tensioning strap. Make sure that the tensioning strap is always securely tightened.

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
Support battery
Vehicles with the Start/Stop function are equipped with two batteries – a more powerful 12 V start battery and a support battery that provides stronger current during the function's start sequence.

natural_image
Interior view of a car showing the hood and engine compartment (no visible text or symbols)The 12 V support battery is located in the engine compartment.

natural_image
Top-down view of a car backseat showing internal compartments and storage areas (no text or symbols visible)If the vehicle is instead equipped with a 48 V support battery, it is located under the cargo compartment. The box over the 48 V support battery may only be removed by an authorized workshop.
WARNING
High voltage may be dangerous if handled incorrectly. Do not touch anything on batteries that is not clearly described in this Owner's Manual.
- Never use a 48 V support battery to jump start the vehicle.
- External electrical equipment may not under any circumstance be connected to the 48 V battery.
- Only a workshop may replace or perform service on the 48 V battery – an authorized Volvo workshop is recommended.
i NOTE
- The higher the current consumption in the vehicle, the more the alternator has to work and the batteries have to be charged = increased fuel consumption.
- When the starter battery capacity has dropped below the lowest permissible level, the Start/Stop function is disengaged.
When the Start/Stop function is temporarily reduced due to high current consumption:
- The engine will auto-start, even if the driver does not lift their foot from the brake pedal.
The support battery does not normally require more service than the start battery. If you have any questions or concerns, consult a workshop—an authorized Volvo workshop is recommended.
CAUTION
If the following is not observed, the Start/Stop function may temporarily stop working after connection of an external starter battery or battery charger:
- The negative battery terminal of the vehicle's starter battery must never be used to connect an external starter battery or battery charger – only the vehicle's negative charging point should be used as a grounding point.
i NOTE
If the starter battery has been discharged to the extent that the vehicle does not have normal electrical functions and the engine must then be jump-started with an external battery or a battery charger, the Start/Stop function may remain activated. If the Start/Stop function shortly thereafter auto-stops the engine, there is a huge risk that auto-start of the engine will fail due to insufficient battery capacity since the battery had not had time to recharge.
If the vehicle has been jump-started or if there has not been enough time for the battery to be charged with a battery charger, the Start/Stop function should be temporarily deactivated until the battery has been recharged by the vehicle. At an ambient temperature of about +15°C (about 60°F), the battery must be charged by the vehicle for at least one hour. At lower ambient temperatures, the charging time can increase to 3-4 hours.

Fuses and fuseboxes
All electrical functions and components are protected by a number of fuses in order to protect the vehicle's electrical system from damage by short circuiting or overloading.

WARNING
Never use a foreign object or a fuse with a higher amperage than that specified to replace a fuse. This could cause significant damage to the electrical system and possibly lead to a fire.
If any electrical component or function is not responding, the component may have blown a fuse due to temporary overload. If the same fuse blows repeatedly, there may be a problem with the component. Volvo recommends contacting an authorized Volvo workshop to have the component checked.

Cleaning leather upholstery\*
Use cleaning agents and car care products recommended by Volvo. Clean regularly and treat stains immediately. It is important to vacuum before using a cleaning agent.
Volvo's leather upholstery* is treated to protect its original appearance. Over time, sunlight, grease, dirt, etc. could break down the protective layer. This could result in scratches and cracking.
Leather upholstery* is a natural product that changes and acquires a beautiful patina over time. Regular cleaning and treatments are required to preserve the qualities and color of the leather. Volvo offers a comprehensive product, Volvo Leather Care KitWipes, for cleaning and treating leather upholstery. When used as directed, it helps preserve the leather's protective coating.
For optimal results, Volvo recommends cleaning and applying protective cream one to four times a year (or more often as needed). Volvo Leather Care Kit 951 0251 and Volvo Leather Softener 943 7429 are available for purchase at Volvo retailers.
Cleaning the leather upholstery
- Apply the leather cleaner to a damp sponge and squeeze it until the cleaner foams.
▶▶
MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
- Move the sponge in circular motions to apply the foam to the stain.
- Dampen the stain thoroughly with the sponge. Let the sponge absorb the stain and do not rub.
- Dry the stain using a soft towel and let the leather dry completely.
Protecting the leather upholstery
- Apply a small amount of leather protector to a cloth and then apply the protector to the leather using light circular movements.
- Let it dry for approximately 20 minutes.
Protecting the leather upholstery makes it better able to withstand sunlight's harmful UV rays.

First, remove dirt, dust, etc. with a damp sponge or cloth.
! CAUTION
Sharp objects such as rings could damage the leather on the steering wheel.
Treating stains on the steering wheel:
Type 1 (ink, wine, coffee, milk, sweat or blood)

Type 2 (grease, oil, sauces or chocolate)
- Same procedure as for Type 1 stains.
- Finish by wiping the wheel with an absorbent paper or towel.
Type 3 (dry dirt or dust)
- Remove the dirt/dust using a soft brush.
- Same procedure as for Type 1 stains.

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
Polishing and waxing
Polish and wax the vehicle when the paint is dull or to provide extra protection. The vehicle does not need to be polished until it is at least a year old. However, it can be waxed during the first year. Do not polish or wax the vehicle in direct sunlight. The surface of the vehicle should not be warmer than 45\ ircC ( 113\ ircF ).
- Wash and dry the vehicle very carefully before polishing or waxing. Remove asphalt and tar stains with asphalt remover or paint thinner. More stubborn stains can be removed with a grinding paste designed for vehicle paint. Use cleaning agents recommended by Volvo.
- Use polish first and then liquid or paste wax. Follow the instructions on the package carefully. Many products contain both polish and wax.
- A wide range of polymer-based waxes can be purchased today. These waxes are easy to use and produce a long-lasting, high-gloss finish that protects the bodywork against oxidation, road dirt and fading.
CAUTION
Never polish or wax initially matte exterior details on the vehicle. This could destroy the matte effect and make the surface permanently shiny.
CAUTION
Avoid waxing and polishing plastic and rubber.
If using degreaser on plastic and rubber, only rub (if necessary) with slight pressure. Use a soft sponge.
Polishing glossy trim moldings can wear away or damage the glossy surface layer.
Polish containing abrasives must not be used.
CAUTION
Use cleaning agents recommended by Volvo. Other treatments, such as preservation, sealing, protection, luster sealing or similar, could damage the paintwork. Paintwork damage caused by such treatments are not covered by Volvo's warranty.

Hand washing
The vehicle should be washed as soon as it becomes dirty. This makes the vehicle easier to clean because dirt does not attach as strongly. It also reduces the risk of scratches and keeps the vehicle looking new. Wash the vehicle in a car wash or garage with an oil separator and use car washing detergent. Use cleaning agents and car care products recommended by Volvo.
Important to keep in mind when handwashing your vehicle
- Avoid washing the vehicle in direct sunlight. This could cause the detergent or wax to dry out and become abrasive.
- Remove bird droppings from paintwork as soon as possible. It contains chemicals that affect and discolor paintwork very quickly. Use e.g. soft paper or a sponge soaked in lots of water. Consult an authorized Volvo workshop for assistance removing discoloration.
- Hose down the underbody, including the wheel housings and bumper.
-
Hose down the entire vehicle and remove any loose dirt, droppings etc. to reduce the risk of scratches from washing. Do not spray directly onto locks.
-
If necessary, use cold degreaser on heavily soiled surfaces. Note that in such cases the surfaces must not be hot from the sun.
- Wash using a sponge, car washing detergent and plenty of lukewarm water. Make sure that the sponge is clean. A dirty sponge can scratch the paint.
- Clean the wiper blades with lukewarm soap solution or car washing detergent.
- Dry the vehicle using a clean, soft chamois or a squeegee. Try not to let drops of water dry in strong sunlight. This could cause water drying stains that may need to be polished out.
- In areas with heavy industrial emissions, more frequent washing of the vehicle's exterior is recommended.
- Tar spots from asphalt may remain even after washing. Use a Volvo-recommended tar remover to remove these spots after washing the vehicle.
WARNING
Always entrust engine washing to a work-shop. If the engine is hot, there is a risk of fire.
CAUTION
Dirty headlights do not work as well. Clean them regularly, e.g. when refueling.
Do not use corrosive cleaners. Use water and a non-abrasive sponge.
NOTE
Exterior lighting such as headlights and taillights may develop temporary condensation on the inside of the lens. This is normal. All exterior lighting is designed to resist this. Condensation is normally vented out of the lamp housing once the light has been lit for some period of time.
CAUTION
- Make sure that the panoramic roof* and sun shade are closed before washing the vehicle.
- Never use abrasive polishing agents on the panoramic roof.
- Never use wax on the rubber seals around the panoramic roof.
! CAUTION
Remember to remove dirt from the drain holes in the doors and sills after washing the vehicle.

Automatic car washes
The vehicle should be washed as soon as it becomes dirty. The longer the dirt remains, the more difficult it will be to keep the vehicle clean. It could also lead to paint damage.
Washing your vehicle in an automatic car wash is a fast and easy way to keep your vehicle clean, but it does not reach all areas of the vehicle. Volvo recommends washing your vehicle by hand or supplementing automatic car washes with a hand wash.
i NOTE
Volvo recommends not washing the vehicle in an automatic car wash during the first few months; the paintwork on new vehicles takes some time to fully harden.
! CAUTION
Before driving the vehicle into a car wash, deactivate the Automatic Braking when Stationary and Automatic Parking Brake Application functions. If the functions are not deactivated, the brake system will seize when the vehicle is stationary and the vehicle will not be able to roll.
CAUTION
For automatic car washes in which the vehicle is pulled forward on rolling wheels:
- Before washing the vehicle, make sure that the automatic rain sensor is deactivated. If it is not deactivated and inadvertently starts, the wiper arms could be damaged.
- To help prevent damage from the automatic car wash machinery, make sure that the door mirrors are folded in, antennas retracted or removed, and any auxiliary lights secured.
- Drive into the automatic car wash.
- Turn off the "Automatic Braking when Stationary" function using the Ⓐ button in the tunnel console.
- Turn off the "Automatic Parking Brake Application" function in the center display's Top view.
- Turn off the engine by turning the start knob in the tunnel console clockwise. Hold the knob in position for at least 2 seconds.
The vehicle is now ready for the automatic car wash.

CAUTION
The system will automatically change to P mode if the above steps are not followed. In P mode, the wheels are locked, which they should not be when the vehicle is being washed in a car wash.

NOTE
Keep in mind that if the vehicle is equipped with the keyless locking and unlocking function*, the doors and tailgate/trunk lid may open when washing the vehicle if the remote key is within range.
Testing the brakes

WARNING
Always test the brakes after washing the vehicle, including the parking brake, to ensure moisture and corrosion do not attach the brake pads and impair brake functionality.
Lightly depress the brake pedal from time to time when driving long distances in rain or slush. The heat from the friction will help warm up and dry the brake pads. Do the same after starting the vehicle in very damp or cold weather.

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
Corrosion protection
Your vehicle is constructed with protection against corrosion.
Corrosion protection for the body consists of modern metallic protective coatings on the sheet metal, a high-quality painting process, corrosion-protected and minimized metal overlap, and shielding plastic components, abrasion protection and supplemental rust inhibitor in exposed areas. In the chassis, exposed components of the wheel suspension are made of corrosion-resistant cast aluminum.
Inspection and maintenance
The corrosion protection does not normally require maintenance, but keeping the vehicle clean helps reduce the risk of corrosion. The use of strong alkaline or acidic cleaning fluids should be avoided on shiny body components. Any stone chips in the paint should be touched up as soon as they are discovered.

Paintwork
The paintwork consists of multiple layers. It is an important part of the vehicle's corrosion protection and therefore needs to be checked regularly.
The most common types of paint damage are minor stone chips, scratches and damage to e.g. the edges of fenders, doors and bumpers.
To help prevent corrosion, paint damage should be rectified immediately.

Touching up minor paint damage
The paintwork is an important part of the vehicle's corrosion protection and therefore needs to be checked regularly. The most common types of paint damage are minor stone chips, scratches and damage to e.g. the edges of fenders, doors and bumpers. To help prevent corrosion, paint damage should be rectified immediately.

NOTE
Make sure the surface is clean and dry before performing any touch-ups to the paint. The surface temperature should be at least 15 °C (59 °F).
Materials that might be needed
- Primer – special adhesive primer is available in a spray can for e.g. plastic-covered bumpers.
- Base coat and clear coat – available in spray cans or as a touch-up pen/stick 16 .
- Masking tape.
- Fine-grain sandpaper.
Applying touch-up paint to a damaged surface

natural_image
Illustration of a hand holding a small paper with a brush, alongside a close-up of the brush tip on a surface (no text or symbols)If the damage has not reached all the way down to the metal, then touch-up paint can be applied immediately after the surface has been cleaned.
-
Place a strip of masking tape over the damaged surface. Pull the tape off so that any loose flakes of paint adhere to it. If the damage goes down to the bare metal, you may need to use primer first. If the paint damage is on a plastic surface, an adhesive primer should be used for better results. Spray the primer into the lid of the spray can and brush on thinly.
-
Light sanding with a very fine-grained sandpaper or similar may be required before painting (e.g. if there are uneven edges). Clean the area carefully to remove dirt, grease, salts, etc. and let it dry.
- Thoroughly mix the primer and apply it with a small brush, toothpick or similar. When the primer is dry, apply one or more coats of paint and then a clear coat, letting the paint dry between each application.
If there is a longer scratch, follow the same procedure as above, but first mask off the surrounding area to protect the undamaged paint.
Touch-up pens/sticks and spray paint are available at Volvo retailers.

NOTE
If the stone chip has not gone down to the bare metal and an undamaged coat of paint remains, apply base coat and clear coat immediately after cleaning the surface.
