1. Locate the training button on the garage door opener motor head unit. Exact location and  color of the button may
vary by garage door opener brand. If there is difficulty locating the training button, reference the garage door opener
owner's  manual  or please visit our Web site at www.homelink.com
.
2. Press the training button on the garage door opener motor head unit (which activates the "training light").
 NOTE 
Following step 2, there are 30 seconds in which  to initiate step 3.
3. Firmly press and  release the programmed HomeLink® button. Press and  release the HomeLink button a  second time
to complete the training process. (Some garage door openers may require
76 02 Instruments and controls
HomeLink® Universal Transceiver (option)
you to do this  procedure a  third time to complete the training.)
The garage door opener should now recognize  the HomeLink Wireless Control System.  The remaining two buttons
may now be  trained if this  has not previously been done.  Refer to the Programming portion of this  text. The
HomeLink Wireless Control System  (once programmed)  or the original handheld transmitter may be  used to activate
the garage door. In the event that there are still  difficulties in programming  the HomeLink Wireless Control System,
please visit our Web site, www.homelink.com
.
Reprogramming a Single HomeLink Button
To program a  device to HomeLink using a  HomeLink button previously trained, follow these steps:
1. Press and  hold the desired HomeLink button. Do NOT release until step 4 has been completed.
2. When the indicator light begins to flash  slowly ( after 20 seconds), position the handheld transmitter 1 to 3 inches
away from  the HomeLink surface.
3. Press and  hold the handheld transmitter button. The HomeLink indicator light will flash,  first slowly and  then
rapidly.
4. When the indicator light begins to flash  rapidly, release both buttons.
The previous  device has now been erased and  the new device can be  activated by pushing the HomeLink button that
has just  been programmed. This procedure will not affect any  other programmed HomeLink.
Erasing Channels
Individual buttons  cannot be  erased. However, to erase all three programmed buttons:
1. Press and  hold the two outside buttons  until the indicator light begins to flash  (after 20 seconds).

General information
Air  conditioning - A/C
Your car is equipped with an  Electronic Climate Control (ECC).
The air conditioning system can be  switched off, but for optimal air quality in the passenger  compartment and  to
prevent the windows from  fogging, the air conditioning should be  left on - even in cool weather.
 NOTE 
In warm weather, a  small amount of water may accumulate under the car when it has been parked. This water is
condensation from  the A/C system and  is normal.
Ice and snow
Always keep the air intake  grille at the base of the windshield free of snow.
Fog on the inside  of the windows
The defroster function should be  used to remove fog or mist from  the inside of the windows. Keeping the windows
clean with a  commercially available window washing spray will also help prevent fogging or misting.

Climate control maintenance
Special  tools  and  equipment are required to maintain and  carry out repairs on the climate  system. Work of this  type
should only be  done  by a  trained and  qualified Volvo service technician.
Refrigerant
Volvo cares about the environment. The air conditioning system in your car contains a  CFC-free refrigerant - R134a.
This substance will not deplete the ozone layer. The system contains 1.2 lbs (530 g) R134a (HFC 134a), and  uses PAG
oil.
Passenger compartment filter
Replace the cabin air filter  with a  new one  at the recommended intervals.  Please refer  to your Warranty and  Service
Records Information booklet, or consult a  trained and  qualified Volvo service technician for these intervals.  The filter
should be  replaced  more often when driving under dirty and  dusty conditions. The filter  cannot be  cleaned and
therefore should always be  replaced  with a  new one.
 NOTE 
There are different  types of cabin air filters. Ensure that the correct type is installed.
Display
The display above the climate  control panel shows  the climate  settings that have been made.
Personal settings
There are two functions in the climate  system that can be  set to your preferences:
 Blower  speed to Auto mode (models with ECC  only).
 Timer  controlled recirculation of the air in the passenger  compartment.
For information about how to make these settings, see the Personal  settings section on page 71
.

ECC functions
 1. Auto - On/Off
The AUTO function automatically  regulates climate  control to maintain the desired temperature. The automatic
function controls heating,  air conditioning, blower speed, recirculation, and  air distribution.
If you select one  or more manual  functions, the remaining functions continue  to be  controlled automatically.  All
manual  settings are
83 03 Climate
Electronic Climate Control (ECC)
switched off when AUTO is switched on. AUTO CLIMATE  is shown in the display.
 2. Blower speed
The blower speed can be  increased or decreased  by turning the knob. The blower speed is regulated automatically  if
AUTO is selected. The previously set blower speed is disconnected.
 NOTE 
If the knob is turned counterclockwise and  the blower indication in the display goes out, the blower and  the air
conditioning are switched off. The display shows  the blower symbol  and  OFF.
 3. Recirculation
This function can be  used to shut out exhaust fumes,  smoke, etc from  the passenger  compartment. The air in the
passenger  compartment is then recirculated, i.e. no air from  outside the car is taken into the car when this  function is
activated.
If the air in the car recirculates for too long, there is a  risk of condensation forming on the insides of the windows,
ProCarManuals.com 
Page 77 of 246

especially in winter.
Timer
The timer function minimizes the risk of fogging, or stale air when the recirculation function is selected. See  page 72
for information on setting the recirculation timer.
 NOTE 
Recirculation is always disengaged if the defroster button is engaged to clear  ice or condensation from  the side
windows.
 4. Defroster
Directs airflow to the windshield 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 conditioning system is controlled
to provide maximum air dehumidification.
 The air conditioning is automatically  switched on (can be  switched off by pressing button 5).
The air is not recirculated.
 5. Airflow controls
Press one  of the three buttons  in the illustration to activate the selected airflow. A symbol  in the display above the
climate  control panel and  a  lit LED  in the selected button indicate that the manual  function has been selected. With
manually selected airflow both warm and  cool air can be  selected. See  also the table  on page 86
.
 6. Air  conditioning On/Off
ON: The air conditioning system is engaged when the ON  light is lit and  is controlled automatically  by the system to
maintain the selected temperature.
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.

 7 and 8. Heated front seats (option)
Maximum  heating : Press the button once - both LEDs light up.
Reduced heating : Press the button a  second time - one  LED  lights up.
Seat heating off : Press the button a  third time - no LEDs are lit.
 9. Rear window and door mirror  defrosters
Press to defrost the rear window and  door mirrors.
The rear window and  door mirrors  are defrosted simultaneously if the switch is pressed once. The defrost function is
active if the LED  in the switch is illuminated.
 The function can be  switched off manually by pressing the button.
 The defrost function switches  off automatically  after 12-20 minutes, depending on the outside temperature.
 NOTE 
 This function is automatically  switched off when the power retractable hard top is down.
 On certain markets, the defrost function may remain on longer than 20 minutes in cold weather to help keep the
rear window free from  ice or condensation.
 10. Temperature selector
The temperatures on the driver's and  passenger's  sides can be  set separately using the knob (with the thermometer in
it). The temperature can be  set for both sides of the car when the ignition is switched on (both LEDs will be  on), which
means that a  temperature setting will apply to both sides of the car.
To set the temperature on one  side of the car:
 Press the knob once. The LED  for one  side of the car will light up. Turn  the knob to adjust the temperature.
 Press the knob a  second time to set the temperature on the opposite side of the car.
 Press the knob a  third time to set the temperature on both sides of the car at the same time.
 NOTE 
Selecting a  temperature that is higher or lower than necessary  will not heat or cool the passenger  compartment faster.
85 03 Climate
Electronic Climate Control (ECC)
ECC sensors
 The sunlight sensor is on the upper side of the dashboard
ProCarManuals.com 
Page 79 of 246

 The passenger  compartment temperature sensor is located behind the climate  system control panel.
 The ambient temperature sensor is in the driver's side door mirror.
 The humidity sensor is in the rearview mirror.
These sensors  should never be  obstructed.
 NOTE 
The sunlight sensor monitors the side of the vehicle from  which  the sun shines into the passenger  compartment. This
means that the temperature may differ slightly  between the left and  right air vents, even if the climate  system
temperature is set to be  the same for both sides of the passenger  compartment.
