* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.97
Automatic dimming*Bright light from behind is automatically dimmed by the rearview mirror. The controlfor manual dimming is not available on mir-rors with automatic dimming. The rearview mirror contains two sensors - one forward facing and one rearward facing -that work together to identify and eliminatedazzling light. The forward facing sensordetects ambient light, while the rearward fac-ing sensor detects the light from vehicleheadlights behind.
NOTE
If the sensors are obscured by e.g. parking permits, transponders, sun visors orobjects in the seats or in the cargo area insuch a way that light is prevented fromreaching the sensors, then the dimmingfunction of the interior rearview and doormirrors is reduced.
The compass (p. 97) can only be specified for a rearview mirror with automatic dimming.

Compass*
The rearview mirror contains an integrated display that shows the compass direction inwhich the front of the car is pointing.
Operation
Rearview mirror with compass.
The upper right-hand corner of the rearview mirror has an integrated display that showsthe compass direction in which the front ofthe car is pointing. Eight different directions are shown with English abbreviations:
N(north), NE (north east), E (east), SE (south
east), S (south), SW (south west), W (west)
and NW (north west).
The compass is activated automatically when the car is started or when key position II is
active, see Key positions - functions at differ-ent levels (p. 70). To deactivate/activate thecompass - press in the button on the under- side of the mirror using a paper clip for exam-ple.
CalibrationThe compass may need calibrating to showthe correct compass direction. The earth is divided into 15 magnetic zones. The compass should be calibrated if the caris moved across several magnetic zones. Proceed as follows to perform calibration:
1. Stop the car in a large open area free
from steel structures and high-voltage power lines.
2. Start the car and switch off all electrical equipment (air conditioning, wipers, etc.)and ensure that all doors are closed.
NOTE
Calibration may fail or not start at all if electrical equipment is not switched off.
3. Hold the button on the underside of therearview mirror depressed approx. 3 seconds. The number of thecurrent magnetic zone is shown.

End of restriction or motorwayA corresponding road sign is shown in the combined instrument panel forapprox. 10 seconds in situations where RSIdetects a sign that involves the end of aspeed limit - or other speed-related informa-tion, e.g. end of a motorway. Examples of such signs are:
End of all restrictions.
End of motorway. Following which, the sign information is hid- den until the next speed-related sign isdetected.
Additional signs
Examples of additional signs3
.
Sometimes different speed limits are signpos- ted for the same road - an additional signthen indicates the circumstances under whichthe different speeds apply. The road sectionmay be particularly susceptible to accidentsin rain and/or fog, for example. An additional sign relating to rain is displayed only if the windscreen wipers are in use.
The speed applicable on anexit is indicated in certainmarkets by means of anadditional sign containing anarrow. Speed signs linked to this
type of additional sign are displayed only if the driver is using the direction indicator.
Some speeds are applicable only after e.g. a specific distance or at a certain time of day.The driver's attention is drawn to the situationby means of a symbol for an additional signunder the symbol showing speed.
Display of additional information
A symbol for additional sign in the form of an empty frame under the combined instrumentpanel's speed symbol means that the RSI hasdetected an additional sign with supplemen-tary information for the current speed limit.
Setting in MY CARThere are options for RSI in the MY CAR
menu system; see MY CAR (p. 103).
3 Road signs shown in the combined instrument panel are market-dependent - the illustrations in these instructions only show a few examples.

Fault tracing and action
If the message Windscreen Sensors
blocked is shown in the combined instru-
ment panel it indicates that the laser sensor is blocked and cannot detect vehicles in front ofthe car. This means in turn that City Safety™is not operational. The
Windscreen Sensors blocked message
is not shown for all situations in which the laser sensor is blocked. The driver musttherefore be diligent about keeping the wind-screen and area in front of the laser sensorclean. The following table presents possible causes for the message being shown, along withsuggestions for appropriate action.
CauseAction
The windscreen sur- face in front of thelaser sensor is dirty orcovered with ice orsnow.Clean the wind- screen surface infront of the sensorfrom dirt, ice andsnow.
The laser sensor field of vision is blocked.Remove the blocking object.
IMPORTANT
If there are cracks, scratches or stone chips in the windscreen in front of either ofthe laser sensor's "windows" and theycover a surface of approx. 0.5 x 3.0 mm(or larger), then a workshop must be con-tacted for replacement of the windscreen(see the illustration for sensor location (p.205)) - an authorised Volvo workshop isrecommended. Failure to take action may result in reduced performance for City Safety™. To avoid the risk of failed, deficient or reduced operation for City Safety™, thefollowing also applies:
• Volvo recommends that you do
not
repair cracks, scratches or stone chips in the area in front of the laser sensor -instead, the whole windscreen shouldbe replaced.
• Before replacing a windscreen, con-tact an authorised Volvo workshop toverify that the correct windscreen isordered and fitted.
• The same type or Volvo-approvedwindscreen wipers must be fitted dur-ing replacement.

Overload - starter battery
The electrical functions in the car load the starter battery (p. 361) to varying degrees.Avoid using the key position (p. 70)
II when
the engine is switched off. Instead use the I
mode - which uses less power. Also, be aware of different accessories that load the electrical system. Do not use func-tions which use a lot of power when theengine is switched off. Examples of suchfunctions are: • ventilation fan
• headlamps
• windscreen wiper
• audio system (high volume).
If the starter battery voltage is low then the combined instrument panel's information dis- play shows the text
Low battery Power
save mode. The energy-saving function then
shuts down certain functions or reduces cer- tain functions such as the ventilation fanand/or audio system.
–In which case, charge the battery by star- ting the engine and then running it for atleast 15 minutes - starter battery chargingis more effective during driving than run-ning the engine at idling speed while sta-tionary.

Battery
The service life and function of the battery is influenced by factors such as the number ofstarts, discharging, driving style, driving con-ditions, climatic conditions etc. The starter battery is a traditional 12 V bat- tery.
• Never disconnect the battery when the engine is running.
• Check that the cables to the battery arecorrectly connected and properly tight-ened.
WARNING
•The battery can generate oxyhydrogen gas, which is highly explosive. A sparkcan be formed if a jump lead is con-nected incorrectly, and this can beenough for the battery to explode.
• The battery contains sulphuric acid,which can cause serious burns.
• If sulphuric acid comes into contactwith eyes, skin or clothing, flush withlarge quantities of water. If acidsplashes into the eyes - seek medicalattention immediately.
IMPORTANT
Only a traditional battery charger should ever be used when charging the battery.
