02 Locks and alarm
Alarm*
02
* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.65 General
Activated alarm is triggered if:
•a door, the bonnet or the tailgate is opened
•a movement is detected in the passenger
compartment (if fitted with a movement
detector*)
•the car is raised or towed away (if fitted
with a tilt detector*)
•the battery's cable is disconnected
•the siren is disconnected.
If there is a fault in the alarm system, the infor-
mation display shows a message. In which
case, contact a workshop - an authorised
Volvo workshop is recommended.
NOTE
The movement sensors trigger an alarm in
the event of movement in the passenger
compartment - air currents are also regis-
tered. For this reason the alarm is triggered
if the car is left with a window or the sunroof
open or if the passenger compartment
heater is used.
To avoid this: Close the window/sunroof
when leaving the car. If the car's integrated
passenger compartment heater (or a porta-
ble electric heater) shall be used - direct the
airflow from the air vents so that they are not
pointing upwards in the passenger com-
partment.
NOTE
Do not attempt to repair or modify alarm
system components. All such attempts
could affect the terms of insurance.
Alarm indicator
Same LED as lock indicator, see page 47.
A red LED on the instrument panel indicates
the alarm system's status:
•LED not lit – Alarm not armed
•The LED flashes once every other second
– Alarm is armed
•The LED flashes rapidly after disarming the
alarm (and until the remote control key is
inserted in the ignition switch and key posi-
tion I is selected) – Alarm has been trig-
gered.
Arming the alarm–Press the remote control key lock button.
Deactivate the alarm–Press the remote control key unlock but-
ton.

Functions at different levels
To enable the use of a limited number of func-
tions with the engine switched off, the car's
electrical system can be set in 3 different levels
(key positions) - 0, I and II - with the remote
control key. This owner's manual describes
these levels throughout using the denomina-
tion "key positions".
The following table shows the functions avail-
able in each key position/level.
LevelFunctions
0Odometer, clock and tempera-
ture gauge are illuminated.
Electrically operated seats can be
adjusted.
The audio system can be used for
a limited time - see page 220.
ISunroof, power windows, 12 V
socket in the passenger compart-
ment, RTI, phone, ventilation fan
and windscreen wipers can be
used.
IIThe headlamps come on.
Warning/indicator lamps illumi-
nate for 5 seconds.
Several other systems are acti-
vated. However, electric heating
in seat cushions and the rear win-
dow can only be activated after
starting the engine.
This key position consumes a
lot of current from the battery
and should therefore be avoi-
ded!

04 Comfort and driving pleasure
Climate control
04
152* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
General
Climate controlThe car is equipped with electronic climate
control. The climate control system cools or
heats as well as dehumidifies the air in the pas-
senger compartment.
NOTE
The air conditioning system (AC) can be
switched off, but to ensure the best possible
climate comfort in the passenger compart-
ment and to prevent the windows from mist-
ing, it should always be on.
Actual temperatureThe temperature you select corresponds to the
physical experience with reference to factors
such as air speed, humidity and solar radiation
etc. in and around the car.
The system includes a sun sensor
1 which
detects on which side the sun is shining into
the passenger compartment. This means that
the temperature can differ between the right
and left-hand air vents despite the controls
being set for the same temperature on both
sides.
Sensor location
•The sun sensor1 is located on the top side
of the dashboard.
•The temperature sensor for the passenger
compartment is located below the climate
control panel.
•The outside temperature sensor is located
on the door mirror.
•The humidity sensor* is located by the inte-
rior rearview mirror.
NOTE
Do not cover or block the sensors with
clothing or other objects.
Side windows and sunroof*To ensure that the air conditioning works opti-
mally, the side windows, and sunroof* if speci-
fied, should be closed.
Misting windowsRemove misting on the insides of the windows
by primarily using the defroster function.
To reduce the risk of misting, keep the win-
dows clean and use window cleaner.
Temporary shut-off of the air
conditioning
When the engine requires full power, e.g. for full
acceleration or driving uphill with a trailer, the
air conditioning can be temporarily switched
off. There may then be a temporary increase in
temperature in the passenger compartment.
CondensationIn warm weather, condensation from the air
conditioning may drip under the car. This is
normal.
Ice and snowRemove ice and snow from the climate control
system air intake (the grille between the bonnet
and the windscreen).
Fault tracing and repairEngage a workshop that has authorisation for
the fault tracing and repair of the climate con-
trol system. Volvo recommends that you con-
tact an authorised Volvo workshop.
RefrigerantThe air conditioning system contains a refrig-
erant. This refrigerant contains no chlorine,
which means that it is harmless to the ozone
layer. Engage a workshop that has authorisa-
tion for filling/changing refrigerant to carry out
1Only applies to ECC.

Button for voice recognition
To activate the systemBefore voice commands to a mobile phone can
be used the mobile phone must be paired and
connected via Bluetooth
Ÿ handsfree. If a tele-
phone command is given and no mobile phone
is paired, then the system will provide informa-
tion about this. For information on pairing and
connecting a mobile phone, see page 252.
•Press the button for voice recognition (1) in
order to activate the system and initiate a
dialogue with voice commands. The sys-

the voice recognition system:
•For a command - speak after the tone, with
normal voice at normal speed.
•Do not speak while the system is replying
(the system cannot understand commands
during this time).
•The car's doors, windows and sunroof*
must be closed.
•Avoid background noise in the passenger
compartment.
NOTE
If the driver is unsure of which command to
use, he (she) can say "Help" - the system
then responds with a few different com-
mands which can be used in the current sit-
uation.
Voice commands can be disabled by:
•saying "Cancel"
•not speaking
•a long press on the steering wheel but-
ton for Voice recognition
•Press EXIT or another source button
(e.g. MEDIA).
Help functions for voice recognition
•Instructions: A function that helps you get
familiar with the system and the procedure
for giving commands.
•Voice training: A function that enables the
voice recognition system to learn to know
