General
Quieter and cleaner
Environmental care is one of Volvo Car Corpo-
ration's core values and it influences all of our
operations. This target-orientation has resulted
in the DRIVe vehicle series whose concept
consists of an interaction between several sep-
arate energy-saving functions, all with the
common purpose of reducing fuel consump-
tion, which in turn contributes to reduced
exhaust emissions.
Both variants Eco DRIVe and
Eco Start/Stop DRIVe contain various energy-
saving functions depending on which gearbox
the car is equipped with:A V60 with this button on the
instrument panel and....
•....automatic transmission has the
Eco DRIVe function
•....manual gearbox has the
Eco Start/Stop DRIVe function.
Note that the car can only be equipped with
one of the functions - either Eco DRIVe or
Eco Start/Stop DRIVe - not both.
More information and settings
The MY CAR menu system in the car includes
an integrated owner's manual which explains
the DRIVe concept in detail along with its pos-
sible settings and options - see page 143.
Eco DRIVe
General information on EcoUse of the Eco DRIVe function activates a pro-
gram that helps the driver to drive the car eco-
nomically with minimum fuel consumption and
emissions.
In practice this means that engine braking is
reduced, meaning that the car's kinetic energy
can be used for rolling long distances with the
engine speed at idling speed.
Another environmentally positive Eco DRIVe
effect is that the program interprets accelera-
tion slightly more slowly than the driver does -
this in order to achieve maximum fuel savings
during acceleration.

Fuel-driven engine block heater and passenger compartment heater*

158* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
Fuel-driven heater
General information about the parking
heater
The parking heater heats the engine and pas-
senger compartment and can be started
directly or with the timer.
Two different times can be selected using the
timer. Here, time refers to the time when the car
is heated and ready. The car's electronic sys-
tem calculates when heating should be started
based on the outside temperature.
The heater cannot start if the outside tempera-
ture exceeds 15 °C. At –5 °C or lower the
maximum running time of the parking heater is
50 minutes.
WARNING
The car must be outdoors when the parking
heater is used.
NOTE
When the parking heater is active there may
be smoke from the right-hand wheel hous-
ing, which is perfectly normal.
Refuelling
Warning label on fuel filler flap.
WARNING
Fuel which spills out can be ignited. Switch
off the fuel-driven heater before starting to
refuel.
Check the information display to see that
the parking heater is switched off. When it
is running, the information display shows
Park heat ON.
Parking on a hillIf the car is parked on a steep hill, the front of
the car should point downhill to ensure that
there is a supply of fuel to the parking heater.
Battery and fuelIf the battery has insufficient charge or the fuel
level is too low, the parking heater will be
switched off automatically and a message
appears on the information display. Acknowl-
edge the message by pressing the indicator
stalk READ button once, see page 159.
IMPORTANT
Repeated use of the parking heater com-
bined with short journeys may discharge the
battery and impair starting.
The car should be driven for the same time
as the heater is used to ensure that the car's
battery is recharged adequately to replace
the energy consumed by the heater when it
is used on a regular basis.

Additional heater*
04
* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.161 General information about the
additional heater
In cold climate zones1 an additional heater may
be required to obtain the correct operating
temperature in the engine and to obtain suffi-
cient heating in the passenger compartment.
Fuel-driven additional heater
A fuel-driven additional heater is fitted in cars
with diesel engines.
The heater starts automatically when extra
heat is required when the engine is running.
The heater is switched off automatically when
the correct temperature is reached or when the
engine is switched off.
NOTE
When the additional heater is active there
may be smoke from the right-hand wheel
housing which is perfectly normal.
Auto mode or shutdownThe additional heater can be switched off for
short distances if required.

NOTE
The menu options are only visible in key
position I - any adjustments must therefore

Passenger compartment heater*If the additional heater is supplemented with
timer function then it can be used as a fuel-
driven passenger compartment heater, see
page 158.
Electric additional heater
Cars with certain petrol engines2 have an elec-
tric additional heater integrated into the car's
climate control system.
In a semi-cold
1 climate zone diesel-driven cars
have an electric additional heater instead of a
fuel-driven version.
The heater cannot be controlled manually but
is instead activated automatically after the
engine has been started in outside tempera-
tures below 14 °C and is switched off after the
set passenger compartment temperature has
been reached.

consumption over the last 30 km and the
remaining driveable fuel quantity. The display
shows the approximate distance that can be
driven with the fuel quantity remaining in the
tank.
An economic driving style generally results in a
longer driving distance. For more information
on how you can influence fuel consumption,
