120/240-volt outlet while charging is in progress – the 120/240-volt outlet could be damaged in suchcircumstances. Always interrupt charging first andthen disconnect the charging cable – first from thevehicle's charging socket and then from the120/240-volt outlet. Power strips, extension cords, surge protectors or similar devices must not be used together with thecharging cable since this may involve a risk of fire,electric shocks, etc. An adapter may not be usedbetween the 120/240-volt outlet and the chargingcable. Wipe the charging cable with a clean cloth lightly moistened with water or a mild detergent. Do notuse chemicals or solvents. Do not submerge thecharging cable. Only use the charging cable provided with your vehicle or a replacement cable purchased from aVolvo retailer. Charge module - Avoid exposing the charge mod-
ule and its plug to direct sunlight. In such cases, the overheating protection in the plug could reduce orcut off charging of the hybrid battery. Check that the 120/240-volt outlet has a power supply sufficient for charging electric vehicles – ifuncertain, you should have the outlet checked by aprofessional. RIGHT-SIDE STEERING WHEEL LEVER Wiper blades in service position - Before placing
the wipers in service position, ensure that they have not frozen to the windshield. If the wiper arms inservice position are raised from the windshield, theymust be folded back against the windshield beforeactivating wiping, washing or rain sensor as well asbefore departure. This is to prevent scratching thepaint on the hood. CONNECTIONS Electrical outlet - Each 12-volt socket can supply
a maximum of 120 W (10 A).
NOTE
EXTERIOR OVERVIEW Foot-operated trunk lid - There is a risk of
reduced or lost function if there are large amounts of snow, ice, dirt, etc. on the rear bumper. Make sure to keep the bumper clean. Electromagnetic fields and obstructing objects may interfere with
remote key functions . Avoid storing
the remote key near metal objects or electronic devices, e.g. cell phones, tablets, laptops or charg-ers – preferably no closer than 10-15 cm (4-6 in.). INTERIOR OVERVIEW With a cold start , idling speed may be considerably
higher than normal for certain engine types. This is done to get the emissions system up to normaloperating temperature as quickly as possible, whichminimizes exhaust emissions and helps protect theenvironment. Head-up display * - If City Safety is activated, the
information in the head-up display will be replaced by a City Safety graphic. This graphic will illuminateeven if the head-up display is turned off. The driver's ability to see information in the head-up display may be impeded by the use of e.g. polarizingsunglasses, a driving posture in which the driver isnot centered in the seat, objects on the displayunit's glass cover and/or unfavorable lighting condi-tions. People with certain types of vision problemsmay experience headaches or eye strain whenusing the head-up display. STEERING WHEEL Trip computer - Calculation of driving range may
vary if your driving style changes. PASSENGER COMPARTMENT CLIMATE Heating/cooling cannot be accelerated by choos- ing a higher/lower temperature than the desiredtemperature. Preconditioning is only available when the vehicle
is connected to an electrical outlet. A charging post that is not always active, for example because of atimer, can cause loss of function for precondition-ing. If the vehicle is not connected to an electricalsocket it is still possible in a warm climate toachieve brief cooling of the passenger compart-ment by direct starting preconditioning. The vehicledoors and windows should be closed during pre-conditioning of the passenger compartment. CONNECTIONS Internet
- Data (data traffic) is transfered when
using the Internet, which can incur additional costs. Activating data roaming and Wi-Fi hotspots canincur additional charges. Contact your networkoperator about data traffic costs. When download-ing using a phone, pay extra attention to the datatraffic costs. Data downloading can affect other services that
transfer data, e.g. web radio. If the affect on other services is experienced as problematic, the down-load can be interrupted. Alternatively, it may beappropriate to switch off or cancel other services. Updating - If the phone's operating system is
being updated, it is possible that the Bluetooth con- nection will be interrupted. Delete the phone fromthe vehicle and reconnect. USING CONNECTED DEVICES Apple CarPlay and Android Auto - Volvo is not
responsible for the content of the CarPlay or Android Auto apps. PARKING ASSISTANCE SYSTEMS Keep the camera lens free of dirt, snow and ice to help ensure the best functionality. This is particu-larly important in poor light conditions.
