Brake systemThe brake system is a hydraulic system con-
sisting of two separate brake circuits. If a prob-
lem should occur in one of these circuits, it is
still possible to stop the vehicle with the other
brake circuit.
If the brake pedal must be depressed farther
than normal and requires greater foot pressure,
the stopping distance will be longer.
A warning light in the instrument panel will light
up to warn the driver that a fault has occurred.
If this light comes on while driving or braking,
stop immediately and check the brake fluid
level in the reservoir.
NOTE
Press the brake pedal hard and maintain
pressure on the pedal – do not pump the
brakes.
WARNING
If the fluid level is below the MIN mark in the
reservoir or if a brake system message is
shown in the information display:
DO NOT
DRIVE
. Have the vehicle towed to a trained
and qualified Volvo service technician and
have the brake system inspected.
Power brakes function only when the
engine is runningThe power brakes utilize vacuum pressure
which is only created when the engine is run-
ning. Never let the vehicle roll to a stop with the
engine switched off.
If the power brakes are not working, the brake
pedal must be pressed approximately five
times harder than usual to make up for the lack
of power assistance. This can happen for
example when towing your vehicle or if the
engine is switched off when the vehicle is roll-
ing. The brake pedal feels harder than usual.Water on brake discs and brake pads
affects brakingDriving in rain and slush or passing through an
automatic car wash can cause water to collect
on the brake discs and pads. This will cause a
delay in braking effect when the pedal is
depressed. To avoid such a delay when the
brakes are needed, depress the pedal occa-
sionally when driving through rain, slush, etc.
This will remove the water from the brakes.
Check that brake application feels normal. This
should also be done after washing or starting
in very damp or cold weather.Severe strain on the brake systemThe brakes will be subject to severe strain
when driving in mountains or hilly areas, or
when towing a trailer. Vehicle speed is usuallyslower, which means that the cooling of the
brakes is less efficient than when driving on
level roads. To reduce the strain on the brakes,
shift into a lower gear and let the engine help
with the braking. Do not forget that if you are
towing a trailer, the brakes will be subjected to
a greater than normal load.
Anti-lock braking systemThe Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) helps to
improve vehicle control (stopping and steering)
during severe braking conditions by limiting
brake lockup. When the system "senses"
impending lockup, braking pressure is auto-
matically modulated in order to help prevent
lockup that could lead to a skid.
The system performs a brief self-diagnostic
test when the engine has been started and
driver releases the brake pedal. Another auto-
matic test may be performed when the vehicle
first reaches a speed of approximately 25 mph
(40 km/h). The brake pedal will pulsate several
times and a sound may be audible from the
ABS control module. This is normal.Cleaning the brake discsCoatings of dirt and water on the brake discs
may result in delayed brake function. This delay
is minimized by cleaning the brake linings.
Cleaning the brake pads is advisable in wet
weather, prior to long-term parking, and after
the vehicle has been washed. Do this by brak-

ing gently for a short period while the vehicle is
moving.Emergency Brake AssistanceEBA is designed to provide full brake effect
immediately in the event of sudden, hard brak-
ing. The system is activated by the speed with
which the brake pedal is depressed.
When the EBA system is activated, the brake
pedal will go down and pressure in the brake
system immediately increases to the maximum
level. Maintain full pressure on the brake pedal
in order to utilize the system completely. EBA
is automatically deactivated when the brake
pedal is released.
NOTE
•
When the EBA system is activated, the
brake pedal will go down and pressure
in the brake system immediately increa-
ses to the maximum level. You must
maintain full pressure on the brake
pedal in order to utilize the system com-
pletely. There will be no braking effect if
the pedal is released. EBA is automati-
cally deactivated when the brake pedal
is released.
•
When the vehicle has been parked for
some time, the brake pedal may sink
more than usual when the engine is
started. This is normal and the pedal will
return to its usual position when it is
released.

NOTE
•For safety reasons, the parking brake is
only released automatically if the engine

belt.•The electric parking brake will be
released immediately when the acceler-
ator pedal is pressed and the gear selec-
tor is in position D or P.
2. Fasten the seat belt
3.
Move the gear selector to position D or R
and press the accelerator pedal. The park-
ing brake will release when the vehicle
begins to move.Heavy load uphillA heavy load, such as a trailer, can cause the
vehicle to roll backward when the parking
brake is released automatically on a steep
incline. To help avoid this:
1. Keep the electric parking brake lever
pushed in with the left hand while shifting
into Drive with the right.
2. While pressing the throttle pedal to pull
away, release the parking brake lever only
after the vehicle begins to move.

Audio system
04``131 Introduction
The audio system is available in two versions:
High Performance och Premium Sound. The
system version is shown in the display when
the audio system is switched on.
If the audio system is on when the ignition is
switched off, it will come on automatically the
next time the ignition is put in mode I or higher.
The audio system can be operated without a
key in the ignition slot for 15 minutes at a time
by pressing the POWER button (the driver's
door must be closed on vehicles with the
optional keyless drive).
Some functions are controlled from the menu
system in the center console. For more infor-
mation on menus, see page 120.

USB/iPod connector (option)An auxiliary device, such as an iPod, MP3
player or a USB flash drive can be connected
to the audio system via the connector in the
center console storage compartment. A stand-
ard cable from an iPod or MP3 player can be
routed under the cover to the AUX connector
in the storage compartment.
A sound source must be chosen, depending on
the device that has been connected:
1.

will be displayed.
2. Connect the device to the connector in the
center console storage compartment (see
the illustration).
The text
LOADING
will be displayed while the
system loads the files (folder structure) on the
device. This may take a short time.
When information about the files (the folder
structure) on the device has been loaded, the
resulting list includes information on the artist,
genre and song title.
To navigate in the folder structure, press
ENTER and scroll up and down the folders
using the arrow buttons (on the audio system
control panel or on the steering wheel keypad).
Press the right arrow button to select a folder.
Press the left arrow button to go up a level inthe folder structure. Press ENTER to go down
a level in the folder structure.
Tracks can be selected in two ways:
•
Turn the Tuning knob clockwise or coun-
terclockwise
•
Use the right or left arrow keys on the nav-
igation control to select the desired track.
The arrow keys on the steering wheel key-
pad can also be used in the same way.NOTE
The system supports playback of files in the
most common versions of formats such as
mp3, wma, and wav. However, there may be
versions of these formats that the system
does not support.USB flash driveTo simplify the use of a USB flash drive, it is
advisable to only store music files on the drive.
It will take considerably longer for the system
to index the files on the drive if it contains any-
thing other than compatible music files.MP3 playerMany mp3 players have a file indexing system
that is not supported by the vehicle's audio
system. In order to use an mp3 player, the sys-
tem must be set to USB Removable device/
Mass Storage Device.
iPodAn iPod receives current and its battery is
charged through the connecting cord. How-
ever, if the iPod's battery is completely
drained, it should be recharged before the iPod
is connected to the audio system.
NOTE
When an iPOD is used as a sound source,
the vehicle's audio system has a menu
structure similar to the one in the iPOD. See
the iPOD's manual for detailed information.For further information, refer to the accessory
manual USB/iPod Music Interface.Rear control panel with headphones
