Starting the engine
WARNING
Before starting, check that the seat, steering
wheel and mirrors are adjusted properly.
Make sure the brake pedal can be
depressed completely. Adjust the seat if
necessary. See pages 94 and 94.1. Fasten the seat belt.
2. Apply the parking brake (hand brake) if not
already set. The gear selector (automatic
transmission) is locked in the (P)ark posi-
tion (SHIFTLOCK).
Manual transmission: the clutch must be
fully depressed.
3. Without touching the accelerator pedal,
turn the ignition key
1to the starting posi-
tion. Allow the starter to operate for up to
10 seconds. Release the key as soon as
the engine starts. If the engine fails to start,
repeat this step.
NOTE
•
If the key blade section of the remote is
not fully folded out when starting the
vehicle, the immobilizer function may
make it impossible to start the engine.
•
After a cold start, idle speed may be
noticeably higher than normal for a
short period. This is done to help bring
components in the emission control
system to their normal operating tem-
perature as quickly as possible, which
enables them to control emissions and
help reduce the vehicle's impact on the
environment.
•
To release the gear selector from the P
position, the engine must be running (or
the ignition key must be in position II)
and the brake pedal must be
depressed.
•
Select the desired gear. The gear
engages after a very slight delay which
is especially noticeable when selecting
R.
NOTE
Your vehicle is equipped with a KEYLOCK
system (automatic transmission). When the
engine is switched off, the gear selector
must be in the P position before the key can
be removed from the ignition switch.
When starting in cold weather, the trans-
mission may shift up at slightly higher
engine speeds than normal until the auto-
matic transmission fluid reaches normal
operating temperature.
WARNING
An extra mat on the driver's floor can cause
the accelerator pedal to catch. Check that
the movement of the accelerator pedal is
not impeded. No more than one protective
floor covering may be used at one time.
1If two of the keys to your vehicle are close together, e.g. on the same key ring, when you try to start the vehicle, this could cause interference in the immobilizer system and result in the vehicle not
starting. If this should occur, remove one of the keys from the key ring before trying to start the vehicle again.

WARNING
Ventilation hose:•
The battery generates hydrogen gas,
which is flammable and explosive. The
battery is fitted with a ventilation hose
which vents hydrogen gas out of the
battery compartment through a ventila-
tion opening in the bottom of this com-
partment. If the battery must be
replaced, it is essential that the ventila-
tion hose is properly connected to the
battery and that it is routed through the
ventilation opening provided (see illus-
tration).
•
Be sure the ventilation hose is free of
debris.
•
Only use replacement batteries equip-
ped with a ventilation hose. Consult a
trained and qualified Volvo service tech-
nician.NOTE
After the battery has been disconnected or
replaced, lock and unlock the vehicle with
the central locking system's remote control
to reactivate such features as the power
windows, moonroof, courtesy lighting, etc.
