Securing a booster cushion
G026314
Position the child correctly on the booster cushion
and fasten the seat belt
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 (on vehicles equip-
ped with Occupant Weight Sensor). 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 posi-
tion.
Booster cushions are recommended for chil-
dren who have outgrown convertible seats.
1. Place the booster cushion in the rear seat
of the vehicle.
2. With the child properly seated on the
booster cushion, attach the seat belt to or
around the cushion according to the man-
ufacturer's instructions.
3. Fasten the seat belt by inserting the latch
plate into the buckle (lock) until a distinct
click is audible.
4. Ensure that the seat belt is pulled taut and
fits snugly around the child.
WARNING
•The hip section of the three-point seat
belt must fit snugly across the child's
hips, not across the stomach.
•The shoulder section of the three-point
seat belt should be positioned across
the chest and shoulder.
•The shoulder belt must never be placed
behind the child's back or under the
arm.

ISOFIX/LATCH lower anchors01
47 Using the ISOFIX/LATCH lower child
seat anchors
G009182
Lower anchors for ISOFIX/LATCH-equipped
child seats are located in both rear seating
positions, hidden below the backrest cushions.
Symbols on the seat back upholstery mark the
anchor positions (see the illustration).
WARNING
The center of the rear seat is not a seating
position. This area is not equipped with a
seat belt or ISOFIX/LATCH anchors. No one
should attempt to sit in this position and
child seats should never be placed in the
center of the rear seat.
To access the anchors:1. Put the child restraint in position.
2. Kneel on the child restraint to press down
the seat cushion and locate the anchors by
feel.
3. Fasten the attachment on the child
restraint's lower straps to the ISOFIX/
LATCH lower anchors.
4. Firmly tension the lower child seat straps
according to the manufacturer's instruc-
tions.
NOTE
•Always follow your child seat manufac-
turer's installation instructions, and use
both ISOFIX/LATCH lower anchors and
top tethers whenever possible.
WARNING
Volvo's ISOFIX/LATCH anchors conform to
FMVSS/CMVSS standards. Always refer to
the child restraint system's manual for
weight and size ratings.
WARNING
The ISOFIX/LATCH lower child restraint
anchors are only intended for use with child
seats positioned in the left or right seating
positions.
G031682
Fasten the attachment correctly to the ISOFIX/
LATCH lower anchors
WARNING
Be sure to fasten the attachment correctly
to the anchor (see the illustration). If the
attachment is not correctly fastened, the
child restraint may not be properly secured
in the event of a collision.

qualified Volvo service technician as soon as
possible.

ing, the light may come on occasionally when
the engine is idling. This is normal, provided it
goes off when the engine speed is increased.

reservoir.
NOTE
Canadian models are equipped with the
second symbol.
1On certain engines, this symbol is not used to indicate low oil pressure. Instead, a text warning is provided in the information display, see also page 221.

TimerThe timer function minimizes the risk of mist-
ing, or stale air when the recirculation function
is selected, see page 84 for information on set-
ting the recirculation timer. Recirculation is
always disengaged when you select
Defroster (3).
3. DefrosterDirects airflow to the wind-
shield and side windows and
increases blower speed.
When the defroster is activated:
•Air flows to the windows at high blower
speed.
•The LED in the defroster button lights up
when this function is activated. The air con-
ditioning system is controlled to provide
maximum air dehumidification.
•The air conditioning is automatically
switched on (can be switched off by press-
ing button 5).
4. Airflow controlsPress one of the three buttons
in the illustration to activate
the selected airflow. A symbol
in the display above the cli-
mate control panel and a lit
LED in the selected button
indicate that the manual func-
tion has been selected. With manually selected
airflow both warm and cool air can be selected.
The desired temperature is selected using con-
trol 9.
5. A/C – On or OffON: The air conditioning sys-
tem is engaged when the ON
light is lit.
OFF: The system is disen-
gaged when the OFF lights
up.
If Defroster (3) is activated the air conditioning
is always engaged.

the compartment or if the IAQS sensor has
detected contaminants in the incoming air.
•The green indicator light above M is on:
recirculation is engaged and no outside air
flows into the passenger compartment.
•Both indicator lights are off. Recirculation
is switched off (unless ECC activates it to
help cool the passenger compartment
faster in hot weather). Outside air flows into
the passenger compartment and is filtered.
However, when both indicator lights are
off, the IAQS sensor is deactivated and will
not monitor the outside air for contami-
nants.
Keep the following in mind:
•As a rule, IAQS should always be engaged.
•In cold weather, the recirculation function
is limited to help avoid condensation on the
windows.
•If condensation forms, using the defroster
functions for the windshield/front side win-
dows and the rear window will help clear
the condensation.
4. DefrosterDirects airflow to the wind-
shield and side windows and
increases blower speed.
When the defroster is acti-
vated:
•Air flows to the windows at high blower
speed.
•The LED in the defroster button lights up
when this function is activated. The air con-
ditioning system is controlled to provide
maximum air dehumidification.
•The air conditioning is automatically
switched on (can be switched off by press-
ing button 6).
The air is not recirculated.
5. Airflow controlsPress one of the three buttons
in the illustration to activate
the selected airflow. A symbol
in the display above the cli-
mate control panel and a lit
LED in the selected button
indicate that the manual func-
tion has been selected. With manually selected
airflow both warm and cool air can be selected.
See also the table on page 100.
6. Air conditioning On/OffON: The air conditioning sys-
tem is engaged when the ON
light is lit and is controlled
automatically by the system
to maintain the selected tem-
perature.
OFF: The system is disengaged when the
OFF lights up
When OFF is selected and the OFF LED is lit,
the air conditioning system is deactivated.
Other functions are still controlled automati-
