Recording data As part of Volvo's safety and quality assurance, certain information about the vehicle's operation,functionality and incidents are recorded in thecar.
This vehicle is equipped with an "Event Data Recorder" (EDR). Its primary purpose is to regis-ter and record data related to traffic accidents orcollision-like situations, such as times when theairbag deploys or the vehicle strikes an obstaclein the road. The data is recorded in order toincrease understanding of how vehicle systemswork in these types of situations. The EDR isdesigned to record data related to vehicledynamics and safety systems for a short time,usually 30 seconds or less. The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record data related to the following in the event of trafficaccidents or collision-like situations: •How the various systems in the car worked
• Whether the driver and passenger seatbelts were fastened/tensioned
• The driver's use of the accelerator or brakepedal
• The travel speed of the vehicle
This information can help us better understandthe circumstances in which traffic accidents, inju-ries and damage occur. The EDR only recordsdata when a non-trivial collision situation occurs.The EDR does not record any data during normal driving conditions. Similarly, the system neverregisters who is driving the vehicle or the geo-graphic location of the accident or near-miss sit-uation. However, other parties, such as the police,could use the recorded data in combination withthe type of personally identifiable informationroutinely collected after a traffic accident. Specialequipment and access to either the vehicle or theEDR is required to be able to interpret the regis-tered data. In addition to the EDR, the car is equipped with a number of computers designed to continuallycheck and monitor the function of the car. Theycan record data during normal driving conditions,but in particular register faults affecting the vehi-cle's operation and functionality, or upon activa-tion of the vehicle's driver support function (e.g.City Safety and the auto brake function). Some of the recorded data is required to enable service and maintenance technicians to diagnoseand remedy any faults that occurred in the vehi-cle. The registered information is also needed toenable Volvo to satisfy legal requirements laid outin laws and by government authorities. Informa-tion registered in the vehicle is stored in its com-puter until the vehicle is serviced or repaired. In addition to the above, the registered informa- tion can be used in aggregate form for researchand product development with the aim of contin-uously improving the safety and quality of Volvocars.
Volvo will not contribute to the above-describedinformation being disclosed to third parties with-out the vehicle owner's consent. To comply withnational legislation and regulations, Volvo may beforced to disclose information of this nature tothe police or other authorities who may assert alegal right to access such. Special technicalequipment which Volvo and workshops that haveentered into agreements with Volvo have accessto is required to be able to read and interpret therecorded data. Volvo is responsible that the infor-mation, which is transferred to Volvo during serv-icing and maintenance, is securely stored andmanaged and that its management complies withrelevant legal requirements. For further informa-tion - contact a Volvo dealer.

Contributing to a better environment
An energy-efficient and fuel-efficient car not only contributes to a reduced impact on the environ-ment, but also means reduced costs for theowner of the car. As the driver, it is easy toreduce fuel consumption and thereby savemoney and contribute to a better environment -here is some advice:
• Plan for an effective average speed. Speedsabove approx. 80 km/h (approx. 50 mph)and below 50 km/h (approx. 30 mph) lead toincreased energy consumption.
• Follow the Service and Warranty Booklet'srecommended intervals for service and main-tenance of the car.
• Avoid letting the engine idle - switch off theengine when stationary for longer periods.Pay attention to local regulations.
• Plan the journey - a lot of unnecessary stopsand uneven speed contribute to increasedfuel consumption.
• Use preconditioning
* before starting in cold
conditions - it improves starting capacity andreduces wear in cold weather. The enginereaches normal operating temperature morequickly, which decreases consumption andreduces emissions.
Also remember to always dispose of environmen-tally hazardous waste, such as batteries and oil, inan environmentally safe manner. Consult a work-shop in the event of uncertainty about how this type of waste should be discarded - an author-ised Volvo workshop is recommended.
Efficient emission controlYour Volvo is manufactured following the concept"Clean inside and out" – a concept that encom-passes a clean interior environment as well ashighly efficient emission control. In many casesthe exhaust emissions are well below the applica-ble standards.
Clean air in the passenger
compartment
A passenger compartment filter prevents dustand pollen from entering the passenger compart-ment via the air intake. The Interior Air Quality System (IAQS) * ensures
that the incoming air is cleaner than the air in the traffic outside. The system cleans the air in the passenger com- partment from contaminants such as particles,hydrocarbons, nitrous oxides and ground-levelozone. If the outside air is contaminated then theair intake is closed and the air is recirculated.Such a situation may arise in heavy traffic,queues and tunnels for example. IAQS is a part of the Clean Zone Interior Pack- age (CZIP) *, which also includes a function that
allows the fan to start when the car is unlocked with the remote control key.
InteriorThe material used in the interior of a Volvo iscarefully selected and has been tested in order tobe pleasant and comfortable. Some of the detailsare hand-made, such as the seams of the steer-ing wheel that are sewn by hand. The interior ismonitored in order not to emit strong odours orsubstances that cause discomfort in the event ofe.g. high heat and bright light.
Volvo workshops and the environmentRegular maintenance creates the conditions for along service life and low fuel consumption foryour car. In this way you also contribute to acleaner environment. When Volvo's workshopsare entrusted with the service and maintenanceof your car it becomes part of Volvo's system.Volvo makes clear demands regarding the way inwhich workshop premises shall be designed inorder to prevent spills and discharges into theenvironment. The workshop staff have the knowl-edge and the tools required to guarantee goodenvironmental care.
RecyclingSince Volvo works from a life cycle perspective, itis also important that the car is recycled in anenvironmentally sound manner. Almost all of thecar can be recycled. The last owner of the car istherefore requested to contact a dealer for refer-ral to a certified/approved recycling facility.

IntelliSafe-driver support
IntelliSafe is the Volvo Cars concept concerning car safety. It comprises a number of systemsthat contribute to making a car journey safe, tothe prevention of injuries and to the protection ofpassengers from other road users.
SupportThere are systems incorporated in IntelliSafe that help the driver to drive the car in a safe manner.The driver support functions incorporated in thecar include e.g. the adaptive cruise control (Adaptive Cruise Control) * that ensures that a
constant distance is held between the car and the vehicle in front. Pilot Assist * helps the driver to keep the car
between the lane's edge markings, combined with maintaining a preset time interval to thevehicle ahead. Park Assist Pilot * helps the driver park the car by
sensing the area around it. Other examples of systems that help the driver are the Active main beam, Cross Traffic Alert (CTA) * and Blind Spot Information (BLIS) * sys-
tems.
PreventionAn example of a function that helps to prevent accidents is City Safety. The function warns thedriver of risks of collision with another vehicle,pedestrians, cyclists or larger animals. If the driver does not react to the warning and the risk of col-lision is imminent then City Safety can automati-cally brake the car. Lane Keeping Aid (LKA)
* is another example of a
function that helps to prevent accidents by warn- ing the driver and giving corrective steering inter-ventions if the car is about to cross a lane sideline. Also available is the run-off mitigation function (Run off mitigation), whose purpose is to reducethe risk of the car unintentionally leaving theroad, and it actively steers the car back onto theroad.
ProtectionTo protect the driver and passengers, the car isequipped with seatbelt tensioners which can ten-sion the seatbelts in critical situations and in col-lisions. It also has airbags and inflatable curtains,as well as Whiplash Protection System (WHIPS)which protects against whiplash injuries. A Pedestrian Protection System (PPS) is also available for mitigating a pedestrian's impact withthe car in the event of a frontal collision.
