Trip computer controls and functions
The four* trip computer functions can be accessed by twisting control B
one step at a time in either direction. Twisting the control a fifth time**
returns you to the original function.The trip computer can be reset (current data will be erased from system
memory) by pressing RESET (button C).
1. Driving distance on current fuel reserve
This function shows the approximate distance that can be driven on the
fuel remaining in the tank. This calculation is based on average fuel
consumption during the last 12 miles (20 km) of driving and the amount
of fuel remaining in the tank when the reading was taken.
When the driving distance on current fuel reserve is less than 12 miles
(20 km), “----” will be displayed in the text window.
2. Average fuel consumption
This value indicates fuel consumption since the last time the trip
computer was reset (by pressing RESET, button C). When the engine is
switched off, information on fuel consumption is stored and remains in
system memory until the RESET (button C) is pressed again.
3. Current fuel consumption
This value indicates the current fuel consumption, based on readings
taken once per second. When the car is not moving, “----” will be
displayed.
4. Average speed
This value indicates average speed since the last time the trip computer
was reset (by pressing RESET, button C). When the engine is switched
off, information on average speed is stored and remains in system
memory until the RESET (button C) is pressed again.
5. Current speed in miles per hour (Canadian models only)
This function provides the driver with an instantaneous conversion of the
car’s current speed from km/h to mph.

Only specially trained persons should
mount self supporting run flat tires.
If self supporting run flat tires are
mounted, the vehicle must be equipped
with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System.
After a low pressure warning has been
displayed, do not exceed 50 mph
(80 km/h).
Avoid severe cornering and hard braking,
and minimize the distance traveled before
replacing the self supporting run flat tire.
Self supporting run flat tires cannot be
repaired. They must be replaced if
damaged or punctured.

CAUTION!
•Not checking the oil level regularly can
result in serious engine damage if the oil
level becomes too low.
•Oil that is lower than the specified quality
can damage the engine.
•Always add oil of the same type and
viscosity as already used.
•Never fill oil above the MAX mark. This
could cause an increase in oil consump-
tion.
R-models
R-models are equipped with an oil level
warning system. If the engine oil level
becomes too low, the warning light in the
instrument panel will come on and a warning
will be displayed in the text window.

RBDS functions
Radio Broadcast Data
System - RBDS
This feature, which may not be available in
your area, functions only with FM broadcasts.
The radio in your car is equipped with an
advanced system allowing information from
broadcasters to be transmitted visually, as text,
together with the audio signal. This informa-
tion 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
information transmitted is supplied exclusively
by participating broadcasters. Volvo has no
control over the accuracy of the data or
information.
Coverage by local broadcasters may be limited
at this time, but as the technology and benefits
grow, you will find the radio in your car is
equipped to take advantage of this system.
PI (Program Information) Seek:
When an FM station has been stored as a
preset, the radio also stores RBDS program
information 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 text
Certain 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 EXIT briefly.
)
 
 
 


Alarm
Alarms 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.
