Introduction
Important warnings
13 Accessory Installation

We strongly recommend that Volvo owners
install only genuine, Volvo-approved
accessories, and that accessory installa-
tions be performed only by a trained and
qualified Volvo service technician.

Genuine Volvo accessories are tested to
ensure compatibility with the performance,
safety, and emission systems in your vehi-
cle. Additionally, a trained and qualified
Volvo service technician knows where
accessories may and may not be safely
installed in your Volvo. In all cases, please
consult a trained and qualified Volvo serv-
ice technician before installing any acces-
sory in or on your vehicle.

Accessories that have not been approved
by Volvo may or may not be specifically
tested for compatibility with your vehicle.
Additionally, an inexperienced installer
may not be familiar with some of your vehi-
cle's systems.

Any of your vehicle's performance and
safety systems could be adversely affec-
ted if you install accessories that Volvo has
not tested, or if you allow accessories to be
installed by someone unfamiliar with your
vehicle.

Damage caused by unapproved or
improperly installed accessories may not
be covered by your new vehicle warranty.
See your Warranty and Service RecordsInformation booklet for more warranty
information. Volvo assumes no responsi-
bility for death, injury, or expenses that
may result from the installation of nonge-
nuine accessories.
Driver distraction•
Driver distraction results from driver activ-
ities that are not directly related to control-
ling the vehicle in the driving environment.
Your new Volvo is, or can be, equipped
with many feature-rich entertainment and
communication systems. These include
hands-free cellular telephones, navigation
systems, and multipurpose audio systems.
You may also own other portable elec-
tronic 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 pro-
vide 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 fol-
lowing guidance regarding specific newer
features that may be found in your vehicle:

Never use a hand-held cellular telephone
while driving. Some jurisdictions prohibitcellular telephone use by a driver while the
vehicle is moving.

If your vehicle is equipped with a naviga-
tion 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 pre-
sets 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 mov-
ing.
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 oth-
ers sharing the roadway. Avoiding distractions
is part of that responsibility.

be approximately midway on the gauge
when driving. Do not drive the vehicle if
the warning light is on. The text window
will provide you with additional informa-
tion. If the engine temperature remains
high, check coolant level – see page 192.Trip odometer – The trip odometers are

mation and warning messages, the ambi-
ent temperature, and the clock, etc. When
the ambient temperature is between 23°
and 36 °F (–5° and +2 °C), a snowflake
symbol is shown in the display. This sym-
bol serves as a warning for possible slip-
pery road surfaces. Please note that this
symbol does not indicate a fault with your
car. At low speeds, or when the car is not
moving, the temperature readings may be
slightly higher than the actual ambient tem-
perature.

SpeedometerWarning symbolHigh beam indicatorTachometer – The tachometer shows
engine speed in thousands of revolutions
per minute (rpm). Do not drive continuously
with the needle in the red area of the dial,
which indicates maximum allowable
engine rpm range. Instead, shift to a higher
gear or slow the vehicle down. The engine
management system will automatically
prevent excessively high engines speeds.
This will be noticeable as a pronounced
unevenness in engine speed.

06 Starting and drivingStability system
06138
Dynamic Stability Traction Control
(DSTC)The stability system consists of a number of
functions designed help reduce wheel spin,
counteract skidding, and to generally help
improve directional stability.
NOTE
A pulsating sound will be audible when the
system is actively operating and is normal.Traction control (TC)This function is designed to help reduce wheel
spin by transferring power from a drive wheel
that begins to lose traction to the wheel on the
opposite side of the vehicle (on the same axle).
TC is most active at low speeds.
This is one of the DSTC's permanent functions
and cannot be switched off.Spin control (SC)The spin control function is designed to help
prevent the drive wheels from spinning while
the vehicle is accelerating.
Under certain circumstances, such as when
driving with snow chains, or driving in deep
snow or loose sand, it may be advisable to
temporarily switch off this function for maxi-
mum tractive force.
Temporarily switching off Spin control1. Turn the thumb wheel (2) on the left-side
steering wheel lever until the DSTC menu
is displayed.
2.
Hold down the RESET button (1) to toggle
between
DSTC SPIN CONTROL ON
or
OFF
.
Active Yaw Control (AYC)This function helps maintain directional stabil-
ity, for example when cornering, by braking
one or more of the wheels if the vehicle shows
a tendency to skid or slide laterally.)
WARNING
The car's handling and stability characteris-
tics will be altered if the DSTC system func-
tions have been disabled.
G031005
Controls on the left-side steering wheel lever

RBDS functions HU-650/HU-850
10``223 Radio Broadcast Data System - RBDS
This feature, which may not be available in your
area, functions only with FM broadcasts. The
radio in your vehicle is equipped with an
advanced system allowing information from
broadcasters to be transmitted visually, as
text, together with the audio signal. This infor-
mation is then decoded by the radio and made
available for several new and unique features.
The RBDS or Radio Broadcast Data System
operates in the FM band only, and the infor-
mation transmitted is supplied exclusively by
participating broadcasters. Volvo has no con-
trol over the accuracy of the data or informa-
tion.
Coverage by local broadcasters may be limited
at this time, but as the technology and benefits
grow, you will find the radio in your vehicle is
equipped to take advantage of this system.PI (Program Information) Seek:When an FM station has been stored as a pre-
set, the radio also stores RBDS program infor-
mation if it is available. When the preset is
selected at a later time, the radio tries to access
updated program information. In weak signal
areas, there may be a delay before the station
becomes audible. During this delay, "PI seek"
will be displayed and there will be no sound.
PI seek can be interrupted by pressing EXIT.
Radio textCertain RBDS stations broadcast program
information, which can be shown in the display.
The text will be shown twice in the display.To start this function:Press the FM button for several seconds.To deactivate this function:Press FM briefly.
Station information will be shown twice in the
display.AlarmAlarms bulletins are transmitted automatically
by certain RBDS stations. The function cannot
be deactivated.Alarm!
is shown in the radio display when an
alarm message is sent. The function is used to
warn motorists of serious accidents, etc.
Program type/station format -PTYThe PTY function allows you to find stations
whose programs suit your taste. Use the PTY
function to select among the different station
formats shown in the list.
To select a station format:
