With the ignition key in position I or higher, press the POWER button to switch the audio system on or off.
If the audio system is active when the ignition is switched off, it will reactivate automatically when the car is restarted.

Turn the volume knob clockwise or counterclockwise to increase or lower the volume. The volume can also be
increased (+) or lowered (-) using the optional steering wheel keypad.
Pause mode
When the volume is turned all the way down, the CD player switches to pause mode. Reactivate the player by turning
up the volume.
Volume control - ALARM
If a CD is playing when the radio receives an alarm bulletin (available in certain areas only), the CD player enters
pause mode. The bulletin is broadcast at the volume selected for this type of message.
After the bulletin has been completed, the audio system reverts to the originally selected sound source (radio or CD),
which is played at the volume that was selected for that source.
If the bulletin volume is adjusted while the bulletin is being broadcast, this new volume is saved and used for
subsequent bulletins.

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 information 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, 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.
To start this function:
1. Select FM1 or FM2 and press the MENU button.
2. Press ENTER.
3. Select RADIOTEXT in the menu and press ENTER.
To deactivate this function, select RADIOTEXT again and press ENTER.
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.
Program type/station format - PTY

the different station formats shown in the list.
To show the format of the current station:
