Windows, glass and mirrors The vehicle is equipped with several different types of windows, glass and mirrors. Some ofthe windows in the car are laminated.
The windshield has laminated glass. Lamina- ted glass is also available as on option forsome other glass surfaces. Laminated glass isreinforced, which provides better protectionagainst break-ins and improved soundproofingin the passenger compartment. The panoramic roof * also has laminated glass.
The symbol shows the windows containing lamina- ted glass. 1

Pinch protection for windows and sun curtains All power windows and sun curtains
* have a
pinch protection function that is triggered if anything blocks them while they are openingor closing.
If pinch protection is activated, movement will stop and then retract automatically to approx.50 mm (2 inches) from the point at which itwas blocked (or to full ventilation position). It is still possible to override pinch protection when closing is interrupted (e.g. due to ice) bypressing and holding down the control in thesame direction. If there is any problem with the pinch protec- tion, a rest procedure can be tested.
WARNING
If the starter battery is disconnected, the function for automatic opening and closingmust be reset to function correctly. A resetis required in order for the pinch protectionto work.

DRIVER SUPPORT

CauseAction
Water or snow is spraying/swirling up and blocking the radar signals or the camera's range of visibility. No action. Very wet or snow-covered roads may sometimes prevent the cam-era/radar sensor from functioning.
There is dirt between the inside of the windshield and the cam-era/radar sensor. Consult a workshop to have the area of the windshield on the inside of the cam-era's casing cleaned. An authorized Volvo workshop is recommended.
Bright sunlight. No action. The camera/radar sensor will reset automatically when lighting con-ditions improve.
High temperatures
If the temperature in the passenger compart- ment is very high, the camera/radar sensorwill switch off temporarily forapprox. 15 minutes after the engine is startedto protect its electronic components. Whenthe temperature has cooled sufficiently, thecamera/radar sensor will automatically restart.
Damaged windshield
NOTE
Failure to take action could result in reduced performance for the driver supportsystems that use the camera and radarunit. It could cause functions to bereduced, deactivated completely or to pro-duce an incorrect function response.
To avoid the risk of malfunction of the driver support systems that use the radar sensor, thefollowing also apply:
If there are cracks, scratches or stonechips on the windshield in front of any ofthe camera and radar sensor "windows"and this covers an area ofabout 0.5 × 3.0 mm (0.02 × 0.12 in.) ormore, contact a workshop to have the windshield replaced 50
.
Volvo advises
against repairing cracks,
scratches or stone chips in the area in front of the camera and radar sensor – theentire windshield should instead bereplaced.
Before replacing the windshield, contact a workshop 50
to verify that the right wind-
shield has been ordered and installed.
The same type of windshield wipers or wipers approved by Volvo should be usedfor replacement.
If the windshield is replaced, the cameraand radar sensor must be recalibrated by a workshop 50
to help ensure proper func-
tioning of all of the vehicle's camera and radar-based systems.
Radar
Vehicle speed
The radar sensor's ability to detect a vehicle ahead is significantly reduced if the speed ofthe vehicle ahead differs greatly from yourvehicle's speed.
50 An authorized Volvo workshop is recommended.

played in the instrument panel. Follow the recommendations given by reducingspeed or stopping the vehicle safely andletting the engine idle for a few minutes tolet the transmission cool.
If the vehicle begins to overheat, the airconditioning may be temporarily switchedoff.
After a prolonged period of driving indemanding conditions, do not turn off theengine immediately after stopping.
NOTE
It is normal for the engine's cooling fan to operate for a short time after the engine isswitched off.

Symbol Meaning
High engine temperature. Follow the recommendations provided.
Low coolant level. Follow the recommendations provided.
Transmission hot/overheated/ cooling. Follow the recommen-dations provided.

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).

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE

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.

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.
