Recording dataThe driving and safety systems in the car usecomputers which check and share informationwith each other on the car's function. One ormore of these computers may store informa-tion on the systems they check during normaldriving, during the course of a collision or near-collision. Stored information may be used by:

Volvo Car Corporation Service or repair workshops Police or other authorities Other parties who claim legal entitlement

for access to the information or someonewho has permission from the owner toaccess the information.

Accessories and extra equipmentThe incorrect connection and installation ofaccessories can negatively affect the car'selectrical system. Certain accessories onlyfunction when their associated software isinstalled in the car's computer system. Volvotherefore recommends that you always con-tact an authorised Volvo workshop beforeinstalling accessories which are connected toor affect the electrical system.

Laser sensorThis vehicle is equipped with a sensor whichtransmits laser light. It is absolutely essential tofollow the prescribed instructions when han-dling the laser sensor.

The following two labels in English are fitteddirectly on the laser sensor unit:

The upper label in the figure describes the laserbeam's classification:

Laser radiation - Do not look into the laserbeam with optical instruments - Class 1Mlaser product.

The lower label in the figure describes the laserbeam's physical data:

IEC 60825-1:1993 + A2:2001. Complieswith FDA (U.S. Food Administration) stand-ards for laser product design with theexception of deviations in accordance with"Laser Notice No. 50" from 26 July 2001.

Radiation data for the laser sensorThe following table specifies the laser sensor'sphysical data.

WARNING

If any of these instructions are not followedthen there is a risk of eye injury!

Never look into the laser sensor (whichemits spreading invisible laser radiation)at a distance of 100 mm or closer withmagnifying optics such as a magnifyingglass, microscope, lens or similar opti-cal instruments.

Testing, repair, removal, adjustmentand/or replacement of the laser sen-sor's spare parts must only be carriedout by a qualified workshop - we rec-ommend an authorised Volvo work-shop.

To avoid exposure to harmful radiation,do not carry out any readjustments ormaintenance other than those specifiedhere.

The repairer must follow speciallydrawn up workshop information for thelaser sensor.

Do not remove the laser sensor (thisincludes removing the lenses). Aremoved laser sensor does not fulfillaser class 3B as per standard IEC60825-1. Laser class 3B is not eye-safeand therefore entails a risk of injury.

The laser sensor's connector must beunplugged before removal from thewindscreen.

The laser sensor must be fitted onto thewindscreen before the sensor's con-nector is plugged in.

The laser sensor transmits laser lightwhen the remote control key is in posi-tion II and also with the engine switchedoff (see page 74 on key positions).

Introduction

Volvo and the environment


Volvo Cars' environmental philosophy

G000000

Environmental care is one of Volvo Car Corpo-ration's core values which influence all opera-tions. We also believe that our customers shareour consideration for the environment.

Your Volvo complies with strict internationalenvironmental standards and is also manufac-tured in one of the cleanest and most resource-efficient plants in the world. Volvo Car Corpo-ration has global ISO certification, whichincludes the environmental standard ISO14001 covering all factories and several of ourother units. We also set requirements for ourpartners so that they work systematically withenvironmental issues.

fuel consumptionVolvo cars have competitive fuel consumptionin each of their respective classes. Lower fuelconsumption generally results in lower emis-sion of the greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide.

It is possible for the driver to influence fuel con-sumption. For more information read under theheading, Reducing environmental impact.

Efficient emission controlYour Volvo is manufactured following the con-cept "Clean inside and out" a concept thatencompasses a clean interior environment aswell as highly efficient emission control. In

many cases the exhaust emissions are wellbelow the applicable standards.

Clean air in the passenger compartmentA passenger compartment filter prevents dustand pollen from entering the passenger com-partment via the air intake.

A sophisticated air quality system, IAQS* (Inte-rior Air Quality System) ensures that the incom-ing air is cleaner than the air in the traffic out-side.

The system consists of an electronic sensorand a carbon filter. The incoming air is moni-tored continuously and if there is an increase in

Introduction



the level of certain unhealthy gases such ascarbon monoxide then the air intake is closed.Such a situation may arise in heavy traffic,queues and tunnels for example.

The entry of nitrous oxides, ground-level ozoneand hydrocarbons is prevented by the carbonfilter.

Textile standardThe interior of a Volvo is designed to be plea-sant and comfortable, even for people withcontact allergies and for asthma sufferers.Extreme attention has been given to choosingenvironmentally-compatible materials. Thismeans that they also fulfil the requirements inthe Oeko-Tex 100 standard1, a major advancetowards a healthier passenger compartmentenvironment.

Oeko-Tex certification covers seatbelts, car-pets and fabrics for example. The leather in theupholstery undergoes chromium-free tanningand fulfils the certification requirements.

Volvo workshops and the environmentRegular maintenance creates the conditionsfor a long service life and low fuel consumptionfor your car. In this way you contribute to acleaner environment. When Volvo's workshopsare entrusted with the service and mainte-nance of your car it becomes part of our sys-

tem. Volvo makes clear demands regarding theway in which our workshops are designed inorder to prevent spills and discharges into theenvironment. Our workshop staff have theknowledge and the tools required to guaranteegood environmental care.

Reducing environmental impactYou can easily help reduce environmentalimpact - here are a few tips:

Avoid letting the engine idle - switch off theengine when stationary for longer periods.Pay attention to local regulations.

Drive economically - think ahead. Perform service and maintenance in

accordance with the owner's manual'sinstructions - follow the Service and War-ranty Booklet's recommended intervals.

If the car is equipped with an engine blockheater*, use it before starting from cold - itimproves starting capacity and reduceswear in cold weather and the engine rea-ches normal operating temperature morequickly, which lowers consumption andreduces emissions.

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

Always dispose of environmentally hazar-dous waste, such as batteries and oils, inan environmentally safe manner. Consult aworkshop in the event of uncertainty abouthow this type of waste should be discarded- an authorised Volvo workshop is recom-mended.

Following this advice can save money, theplanet's resources are saved and the car'sdurability is extended. For more informationand further advice, see the pages 218 and302.

RecyclingAs a part of Volvo's environmental work, it isimportant that the car is recycled in an envi-ronmentally sound manner. Almost all of thecar can be recycled. The last owner of the caris therefore requested to contact a dealer forreferral to a certified/approved recyclingfacility.

The owner's manual and theenvironmentThe FSC symbol shows that the paper pulp inthis publication comes from FSC certified for-ests or other controlled sources.

General information

Heavy braking can have serious consequencesif the seatbelts are not used. Ensure that allpassengers use their seatbelts.

It is important that the seatbelt lies against thebody so it can provide maximum protection.Do not lean the backrest too far back. Theseatbelt is designed to protect in a normalseating position.

Putting on a seatbeltPull the belt out slowly and secure it by press-ing its locking tab into the seatbelt buckle. Aloud "click" indicates that the belt has locked.

The buckles only fit the intended lock in the rearseat1.

Releasing the seatbeltPress the red button on the seatbelt buckle andthen let the belt retract. If the seatbelt does notretract fully, feed it in by hand so that it doesnot hang loose.

The seatbelt locks and cannot be with-drawn:

if it is pulled out too quickly during braking and acceleration if the car leans heavily.

Make sure that you: do not use clips or anything else that can

prevent the seatbelt from fitting properly

ensure that the seatbelt is not twisted orcaught on anything

the hip strap must be positioned low down(not over the abdomen)

tension the hip strap over the lap by pullingthe diagonal shoulder belt up towards theshoulder.

WARNING

The seatbelts and airbags interact. If a seat-belt is not used or is used incorrectly, thismay diminish the protection provided by theairbag in the event of a collision.

WARNING

Each seatbelt is designed for only one per-son.

WARNING

Never modify or repair the seatbelts your-self. Volvo recommends that you contact anauthorised Volvo workshop.

If a seatbelt has been subjected to a majorload, such as in conjunction with a collision,the entire seatbelt must be replaced. Someof the protective characteristics of the seat-belt may have been lost, even if it appearsto be undamaged. In addition, replace theseatbelt if the belt is worn or damaged. Thenew seatbelt must be type-approved andintended for installation in the same positionas the replaced seatbelt.

Seatbelts and pregnancy

G02

0998

The seatbelt should always be worn duringpregnancy. But it is then crucial that it be wornin the correct way. The diagonal section shouldwrap over the shoulder then be routed betweenthe breasts and to the side of the abdomen.

The lap section should lay flat over the thighsand as low as possible under the abdomen. It must never be allowed to ride upward.Remove the slack from the seatbelt and ensurethat it fits as close to the body as possible. Inaddition, check that there are no twists in theseatbelt.

As the pregnancy progresses, pregnant driversshould adjust their seats and steering wheelsuch that they can easily maintain control of thevehicle as they drive (which means that theymust be able to easily operate the foot pedals

and steering wheel). The aim should be to posi-tion the seat with as large a distance as possi-ble between abdomen and steering wheel.

Seatbelt reminder

G01

7726

Unbelted occupants will be reminded to fastentheir seatbelts by means of an audio and visualreminder. The audio reminder is speeddependent, and in some cases time depend-ent. The visual reminder is located in the roofconsole and the combined instrument panel.

Child seats are not covered by the seatbeltreminder system.

Rear seatThe seatbelt reminder in the rear seat has twosubfunctions:

Provides information on which seatbeltsare being used in the rear seat. A messageappears in the information display whenthe seatbelts are in use, or if one of the reardoors has been opened. The message iscleared automatically after driving forapproximately 30 seconds or after press-ing the indicator stalk's READ button.

Provides a warning if one of the rear seat-belts is unfastened during travel. Thiswarning takes the form of a message onthe information display along with theaudio/visual signal. The warning stopswhen the seatbelt is re-fastened, or it canalso be acknowledged manually by press-ing the READ button.

The message on the information display show-ing which seatbelts are in use is always avail-able. Press the READ button to see storedmessages.

Certain marketsAn acoustic signal and indicator lamp remindthe driver and front seat passenger to use aseatbelt if either of them is not wearing one. Atlow speed, the audio reminder will sound forthe first 6 seconds.

Seatbelt tensionerAll the seatbelts are equipped with belt ten-sioners. A mechanism in the seatbelt tensionertightens the seatbelt in the event of a suffi-ciently violent collision. The seatbelt then pro-vides more effective restraint for the occu-pants.

WARNING

Never insert the tongue of the passenger'sseatbelt into the buckle on the driver's side.Always insert the tongue of the seatbelt intothe buckle on the correct side. Do not makeany damages on seatbelts nor insert anyforeign objects into a buckle. The seatbeltsand buckles would then possibly not func-tion as intended in the event of a collision.There is a risk of serous injury.

Warning symbol on the combinedinstrument panel

The warning symbol in the combined instru-ment panel illuminates when the remote con-trol key is in key position II or III. The symbolclears after approx. 6 seconds provided theairbag system is fault-free.

WARNING

If the warning symbol for the airbag systemremains illuminated or illuminates while driv-ing, it means that the airbag system doesnot have full functionality. The symbol indi-cates a fault in the seatbelt tensioner sys-tem, SIPS, the IC system or some other faultin the system. Volvo recommends that youcontact an authorised Volvo workshopimmediately.

As well as the warning symbol, a message mayappear on the information display in appropri-ate cases. If the warning symbol malfunctions,the warning triangle illuminates and SRSAirbag Service required or SRS AirbagService urgent appears in the display. Volvorecommends that you contact an authorisedVolvo workshop immediately.

Airbag system

G01

8665

Airbag system, left-hand drive car.

G01

8666

Airbag system, right-hand drive car.

The system consists of airbags and sensors. Asufficiently violent collision trips the sensorsand the airbag(s) are inflated with hot gas. Tocushion the impact, the airbag deflates whencompressed. When this occurs, smokeescapes into the car. This is completely nor-mal. The entire process, including inflation anddeflation of the airbag, occurs within tenths ofa second.

WARNING

Volvo recommends that you contact anauthorised Volvo workshop for repair.Defective work in the airbag system couldcause malfunction and result in serious per-sonal injury.

01 Safety

Airbags 01

22

NOTE

The sensors react differently depending onthe course of the collision and whether ornot the seatbelts on the driver and passen-ger side are used.

It is therefore possible that only one (ornone) of the airbags may inflate in a colli-sion. The airbag system senses the force ofthe collision on the car and adapts accord-ingly so that one or more airbags aredeployed.

The capacity of the airbags is also adaptedto the collision force to which the vehicle issubjected.

Side airbag

G03

2949

In a side impact collision a large proportion ofthe collision force is transferred by the SIPS(Side Impact Protection System) to beams, pil-lars, the floor, the roof and other structuralparts of the body. The side airbags at the driv-er's and front passenger seats protect thechest area and the hip and are an importantpart of the SIPS.

The SIPS bag system consists of two maincomponents, side airbag and sensors. Theside airbags are located in the front seat backr-ests.

WARNING

Volvo recommends that repairs are onlycarried out by an authorised Volvoworkshop. Defective work in the SIPS-bag system could cause malfunctionand result in serious personal injury.

Do not put objects in the area betweenthe outside of the seat and the doorpanel, since this area is required by theside airbag.

Volvo recommends the use only of carseat covers approved by Volvo. Otherseat covers may impede the operationof the side airbags.

The side airbag is a supplement to theseatbelts. Always use a seatbelt.

Child seats and side airbagsThe protection provided by the car to childrenseated in a child seat or on a booster cushionis not diminished by the side airbag.

A child seat or booster cushion can be placedon the front passenger seat provided that thecar does not have an activated1 passenger air-bag.

01 Safety

Inflatable Curtain (IC) 01

28

Properties

The inflatable curtain IC (Inflatable Curtain) is apart of SIPS and the airbags. It is fitted in theheadlining along both sides of the roof andprotects the car's occupants sitting in the outerseats. A sufficiently violent collision trips thesensors and the inflatable curtain is inflated.The inflatable curtain helps to prevent thedriver and passengers from striking their headson the inside of the car during a collision.

WARNING

Never hang or attach heavy items onto thehandles in the roof. The hook is onlydesigned for light clothing (not for solidobjects such as umbrellas for example).

Do not screw or install anything onto thecar's headlining, door pillars or side panels.This could compromise the intended pro-tection. Volvo recommends that you onlyever use Volvo genuine parts that areapproved for placement in these areas.

WARNING

Do not load the car higher than 50 mm underthe top edge of the door windows. Other-wise, the intended protection of the inflat-able curtain, which is concealed in the head-lining, may be compromised.

WARNING

The inflatable curtain is a supplement to theseatbelts.

Always use a seatbelt.

01 Safety

WHIPS 01

29

Protection against whiplash injury WHIPS

The whiplash protection system (WHIPS) con-sists of energy absorbing backrests and spe-cially designed head restraints in the frontseats. The system is actuated by a rear-endcollision, where the angle and speed of the col-lision, and the nature of the colliding vehicle allhave an influence.

WARNING

The WHIPS system is a supplement to theseatbelts. Always use a seatbelt.

Properties of the seatWhen the WHIPS system is deployed, the frontseat backrests are lowered backward to alterthe seating position of the driver and front seatpassenger. This reduces the risk of whiplashinjury.

WARNING

Never modify or repair the seat or WHIPSsystem yourself. Volvo recommends thatyou contact an authorised Volvo workshop.

WHIPS system and child seats/boostercushionsThe protection provided by the car to childrenseated in a child seat or on a booster cushionis not diminished by the WHIPS system.

Correct seating positionFor the best possible protection, the driver andfront seat passenger should sit in the centre ofthe seat with as little space as possiblebetween the head and the head restraint.

Do not obstruct the WHIPS system

Do not leave any objects on the floor behind thedriver's seat/passenger seat that may prevent theWHIPS system from functioning.

WARNING

Do not squeeze rigid objects between therear seat cushion and the front seat back-rest. Make sure you do not to obstruct thefunction of the WHIPS system.

01 Safety

WHIPS 01

30

Do not place objects on the rear seat that mayprevent the WHIPS system from functioning.

WARNING

If a rear seat backrest is folded down, thecorresponding front seat must be movedforward so that it does not touch the foldedbackrest.

WARNING

If a seat has been subjected to extremeforces, such as due to a rear-end collision,the WHIPS system must be checked. Volvorecommends that it is checked by anauthorised Volvo workshop.

Part of the WHIPS system's protectivecapacity may have been lost even if theseats appear to be undamaged.

Volvo recommends that you contact anauthorised Volvo workshop to have the sys-tem checked even after a minor rear-endcollision.

Roll-Over Protection System - ROPS 01

31

FunctionVolvo's Roll-Over Protection System (ROPS)has been designed to reduce the risk of the caroverturning and to provide the best possibleprotection in the event of such an accident.

The system consists of a stabiliser system,Roll Stability Control (RSC) that minimises therisk of overturning, for example, during suddenevasive manoeuvres or if the car skids.

The RSC system uses a sensor which registerschanges in the car's lateral inclination angle.This information is used to calculate the risk ofthe car overturning. If a risk exists, the DSTCsystem engages, engine torque is lowered andone or more wheels are braked until the car hasregained its stability.

For more information on the DSTC system, seepage 161 .

WARNING

Under normal driving conditions, the RSCsystem improves the car's road safety, butthis must not be taken as a reason toincrease speed. Always follow the usualprecautions for safe driving.

NOTE

The SRS, SIPS, IC and belt tensioner sys-tems are deployed only once during a colli-sion.

WARNING

The airbag control module is located in thecentre console. If the centre console isdrenched with water or other liquid, discon-nect the battery cables. Do not attempt tostart the car since the airbags may deploy.Recovering the car. Volvo recommends thatyou have it conveyed to an authorised Volvoworkshop.

WARNING

Never drive with deployed airbags. Theycan make steering difficult. Other safetysystems may also be damaged. The smokeand dust created when the airbags aredeployed can cause skin and eye irritation/injury after intensive exposure. In case ofirritation, wash with cold water. The rapiddeployment sequence and airbag fabricmay cause friction and skin burns.

Keyless lock and ignition system (onlyPCC1)

General

The keyless drive function in the PCC allowsthe car to be unlocked, driven and locked with-out the need for a key. You simply have to havethe PCC with you. The system makes it easierand more convenient to open the car, e.g.when your hands are full.

Both of the car's PCCs incorporate the Keylessfunction. Additional PCCs can be ordered, seepage 46.

PCC rangeIn order to open a door or the tailgate, a PCCmust be no more than approx. 1.5 metres from

the car door handle or tailgate. This means thatthe person who wishes to lock or unlock a doormust have the PCC with him or her. It is notpossible to lock or unlock a door if the PCC ison the opposite side of the car.

The red rings in the preceding illustration indi-cate the range covered by the system's anten-nas.

If all PCCs are removed from the car when theengine is running or key position II is active(see page 74) and if all doors are closed, thena warning message is shown in the informationdisplay and an audio reminder signal sounds atthe same time.

The warning message clears and the audioreminder signal stops when the PCC is broughtback to the car after:

a door has been opened and closed the PCC is inserted into the ignition switch the READ button has been pressed.Handling the PCC safelyIf a PCC with keyless drive function is left in thecar, it is deactivated temporarily when the caris locked. This prevents unauthorised entry.

However, if someone breaks into the car,opens the door and finds the PCC, it can be

reactivated. It is therefore important to handleall PCCs with great care.

IMPORTANT

Never leave a PCC behind in the car.

Interference to PCC functionElectromagnetic fields and screening can inter-fere with the keyless drive system. For this rea-son, do not place the PCC near mobile phonesor metallic objects.

If interference is experienced nonetheless, usethe PCC and the key blade as a remote controlkey., see page 47.
