Introduction
General information
Shiftlock
When your car is parked, the gear selector is locked in the (P)ark position. To release the selector from this position,
turn the ignition key to position II (or start the engine), depress the brake pedal, press the button on the front side of the
gear selector and move the selector from (P)ark.
Keylock
When the ignition is switched off, the gear selector must be in the (P)ark position before the key can be removed from
the ignition switch.
Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)
The ABS system in your car performs a self -diagnostic test when the vehicle first reaches the speed of approximately
12 mph (20 km/h). The brake pedal will pulsate several times and a sound may be audible from the ABS control
module. This is normal.
Fuel filler door
Press the button on the light switch panel when the car is at a standstill to unlock the fuel filler door.
Fuel filler cap
After refueling, close the fuel filler cap by turning it clockwise until it clicks into place. If this cap is not closed tightly
or if the engine is running when the car is refueled, the Malfunction Indicator Lamp ("Check Engine" light) may
indicate a fault.
Points to keep in mind
Before you operate your vehicle for the first time, please familiarize yourself with the new-engine oil consumption
information on page 187
. You should also be familiar with the information found in the chapters "Instruments and
controls", and "Starting and driving".
Information contained in the balance of the manual is extremely useful and should be read after operating the vehicle
for the first time.
The manual is structured so that it can be used for reference. For this reason, it should be kept in the vehicle for

WARNING!
If the safety system warning light stays on after the engine has started or if it comes on while you are driving, drive
the vehicle to the nearest authorized Volvo retailer for inspection as soon as possible.
There is no maintenance to perform on the SRS yourself. The month and year shown on the decal on the door pillar
indicate when you should contact your Volvo retailer for specific servicing or replacement of airbags and seat belt
tensioners. This service must be performed by an authorized Volvo retailer. WARNING!
If your vehicle has been subjected to flood conditions (e.g. soaked carpeting/ standing water on the floor of the
vehicle) or if your vehicle has become flood-damaged in any way, do not attempt to start the vehicle or put the key
in the ignition before disconnecting the battery (see below). This may cause airbag deployment which could result in
personal injury. Have the vehicle towed to an authorized Volvo retailer for repairs.
Automatic transmission:
Before attempting to tow the vehicle, use the following procedure to override the shiftlock system to move the gear
selector to the neutral position.
Switch off the ignition for at least 10 minutes and disconnect the battery
Wait at least one minute.
Insert the key in the ignition and turn it to position II.
Press firmly on the brake pedal.
Move the gear selector from (P)ark to the (N)eutral position. See page 111 for information on manually overriding
the shiftlock system.

meters). An LED in the switch indicates when the rear fog light is on. The rear fog light will only function in
combination with the high/ low beam headlights or the optional front fog lights.

Manual climate system functions
1. Blower speed
The blower speed can be increased or decreased by turning the knob. If the knob is turned
counterclockwise and the indicator light in the display goes out, the blower and the air conditioning are switched off.
The display shows the blower symbol and OFF.
2. 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. Recirculation (together with the air conditioning system) cools the passenger compartment more
quickly in very warm weather. If the air in the car recirculates for too long, there is a risk of condensation forming on
the insides of the windows, especially in winter.
Timer
The timer function minimizes the risk of misting, or stale air when the recirculation function is selected. See page 62
for information on setting the recirculation timer. Recirculation is always disengaged when you select Defroster (3).
3. Defroster
Directs airflow to the windshield and side windows and increases blower speed.
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.

Emergency stop
If the seat inadvertently begins to move, press any of the buttons to stop the seat.
Programming the seat memory, driver's seat only (option)
Three different seating positions can be stored in the seat's memory.
The following example explains how button 1 can be programmed. Buttons 2 and 3 can be programmed in the same
way.
To program (store) a seat position in button 1:
1. Use controls 5, 6, and 7 to adjust the seat to the desired position.
2. Press and hold down the M (memory) button.
3. With the M button depressed, press button 1 to store the seat's current position.
To move the seat to the position that it was in when button 1 was programmed, press and hold down button 1 until the
seat stops moving.
As a safety precaution, the seat will stop automatically if the button is released before the seat has reached the preset
position.
Central locking system remote control and driver's seat memory
The remote control transmitter can also be equipped with an optional function that controls the electrically operated
driver's seat in the following way:
1. Adjust the seat to the desired position.
2. When you leave the car, lock it using the remote control.
3. The next time the driver's door is unlocked with the same remote control and the driver's door is opened, the
pg. 80 Front seats
driver's seat will automatically move to the position that it was in when the door was most recently locked with that
remote control.

Movement of the seat can be STOPPED at any time by pressing any button on the power seat control panel.
Do not adjust the seat while driving. The seat should be adjusted so that the brake pedal can be depressed fully. In
addition, position the seat as far rearward as comfort and control allow.
