Battery drain
The electrical functions in the vehicle drain the battery to varying degrees. Avoid usingignition mode II when the engine is switched
off. Use ignition mode I instead, as this uses
less electrical current.
Note that certain accessories may also drain power from the electrical system. Do not usefunctions that use a lot of electrical currentwhen the engine is turned off. Examples ofsuch functions are: blower
headlights
windshield wipers
audio system (especially at high volume).
If the starter battery voltage is low, a message is shown in the driver display. The vehicle'senergy-saving function will then turn off orreduce certain functions, such as the blowerand/or the audio system.
–Charge the battery by starting the engine and let it run for at least 15 minutes (driv-ing charges the battery faster than lettingthe engine idle).

Activating and deactivating the compass *
An integrated compass 25
in the upper right
corner of the rearview mirror shows the direction the vehicle is traveling.
The compass is automatically activated when the vehicle is started. To deactivate/activate the compass manually:
–Use a paper clip or similar object to press the button on the bottom of the mirror.
> If the compass is deactivated when the vehicle is switched off, it will not be activated the next time the vehicle isstarted. The compass will then need tobe activated manually.

Calibrating the compass *
The globe is divided into 15 magnetic zones. The compass 26
should be calibrated if the
vehicle is driven from one zone to another.
1. Stop the vehicle in a large, open area away from steel constructions and high-voltage power lines.
2. Start the engine and switch off all electri- cal equipment (climate system, wipers,etc.) and make sure all doors are closed.
NOTE
Calibration may fail or not even be initiated if electrical equipment is not turned off.
3. Hold the button on the bottom of the rear-view mirror pressed for about 3 seconds (using e.g. a paper clip). The number of thecurrent magnetic zone is shown.

magnetic zones).
5. Wait until the display again shows
C, or
press and hold the button on the under- side of the rearview mirror for approx.
6 seconds until
C is displayed.
6. Drive slowly in a circle at a speed of no more than 10 km/h (6 mph) until a com- pass direction is shown in the display. Thisindicates that calibration is complete.Drive in a circle two more times to fine-tune the calibration.

Periodic maintenance helps minimize emissions
NOTE
Refer to your Service and Warranty Booklet for a comprehensive serviceand maintenance schedule up to240,000 km (150,000 miles). Thisprogram contains inspections and ser-vices necessary for the proper functionof your vehicle and includes compo-nents that affect vehicle emissions.
The Warranty and Service RecordsInformation booklet also containsdetailed information concerning thewarranties that apply to your vehicle.
On-board Diagnostic SystemOBD II is part of your vehicle's computerized engine management system. It stores diag-nostic information about your vehicle's emis-sion controls. It can light the Check Enginelight (MIL) if it detects an emission control"fault." A "fault" is a component or systemthat is not performing within an expectedrange. A fault may be permanent or temporary.OBD II will store a message about any fault.
Emission inspection readiness
How do states use
OBD II for emission
inspections?
Many states connect a computer directly to a vehicle's OBD II system. The inspector canthen read "faults." In some states, this type ofinspection has replaced the tailpipe emissiontest.
How can my vehicle fail OBD II emission
inspection?
Your vehicle can fail OBD II emission inspec- tion for any of the following reasons: If your Check Engine (MIL) light is lit, your vehicle may fail inspection.
If your vehicle's Check Engine light was lit,but went out without any action on yourpart, OBD II will still have a recorded fault.Your vehicle may pass or fail, dependingon the inspection practices in your area.
If you had recent service that required dis-connecting the battery, OBD II diagnosticinformation may be incomplete and "notready" for inspection. A vehicle that is notready may fail inspection.
How can I prepare for my next
OBD II
emission inspection?
If your Check Engine (MIL) light is lit or was lit but went out without service, have your vehicle diagnosed and, if necessary,serviced by a qualified Volvo technician.
If you recently had service for a lit CheckEngine light, or if you had service thatrequired disconnecting the battery, aperiod of driving is necessary to bring theOBD II system to "ready" for inspection.Two half-hour trips of mixed stop-and-go/highway driving are typically needed toallow OBD II to reach readiness. YourVolvo retailer can provide you with moreinformation on planning a trip.
Maintain your vehicle in accordance withyour vehicle's maintenance schedule.
Owner maintenancePeriodic maintenance requirements and inter-vals are described in your vehicle's Warrantyand Service Records Information booklet. The following points can be carried out between the normally scheduled maintenanceservices.
Each time the vehicle is refueled:
Check the engine oil level.
Clean the windshield, windshield wipers, headlights, and taillights.

Replacing windshield wiper blades
The wiper blades help remove water from the windshield. Along with the washer fluid, theyare designed to clean the glass and helpimprove visibility while driving. The wiperblades can be replaced.Raise the wiper arms to the service posi- tion. Service position is activated/deacti-vated via the function view in the centerdisplay when the car is stationary and thewindshield wipers are not on. Press thebutton on the wiper blade attachment andpull the wiper blade straight out, parallelwith the wiper arm.
Slide in a new wiper blade until it clicks into place.
3. Check to make sure the blade is securely in place.
4. Press the wiper blade back against the windshield.
Wiper blades come in varying lengths

The windshield washers are turned on.
The rain sensor is activated.
The vehicle begins moving.
CAUTION
If the wiper arms in service position are raised from the windshield, they must befolded back against the windscreen beforeactivating wiping, washing or rain sensoras well as before departure. This is to pre-vent scratching the paint on the hood.

Filling washer fluid Washer fluid is used to help keep the head- lights and windshield clean. Washer fluidcontaining anti-freeze should be used in verycold weather (below-freezing temperatures).
Fill washer fluid into the reservoir with the blue cover. The reservoir is used for both the windshield washer and the headlight washer
*
NOTE
When there is approximately 1 liter (1 qt) of washer fluid remaining, the message
Washer fluid Level low, refill and the
symbol will be displayed in the
instrument panel.
Recommended grade: Washer fluid recom-
mended by Volvo, with frost protection during cold weather and temperatures below the freezing point.
CAUTION
Use Volvo's original washer fluid or an equivalent fluid with the recommended pHvalue between 6 and 8, diluted as recom-mended, e.g. in a 1:1 solution with pH-neu-tral water.
CAUTION
Use washer fluid with anti-freeze when temperatures are below the freezing pointto help keep the pump, reservoir and hosesfrom freezing.
Volume: The washer fluid reservoir has a volume of 5.5 liters (5.8 qts).
