Additional heater*
In cold climate zones 5
 an additional heater
may be required to obtain the correct operat- ing temperature in the engine and to obtainsufficient heating in the passenger compart-ment. A fuel-driven additional heater (p. 134) is fit- ted in cars with diesel engines. In a semi-cold 5
 climate zone diesel-driven
cars have an electric additional heater (p. 135) instead of a fuel-driven version. Cars with certain petrol engines 6
 have an
electric additional heater integrated into the car's climate control system.

Fuel-driven additional heater*
The car is equipped with either an electric (p. 135) or a fuel-driven additional heater (p. 134). 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 whenthe engine is switched off.
NOTE
When the additional heater is active there may be smoke from the right-hand wheelhousing, which is perfectly normal.
Auto mode or shutdownThe additional heater's automatic start sequence can be switched off if required.
NOTE
Volvo recommends that the fuel-driven additional heater should be switched offfor short distances.

Electric additional heater*
The car is equipped with either a fuel-driven (p. 134) or an electric additional heater (p.134). The heater cannot be controlled manually, but is instead activated automatically after theengine has been started in outside tempera-tures below 14 °C and is switched off afterthe set passenger compartment temperaturehas been reached.

Remote start (ERS)*
Remote start (ERS – Engine Remote Start) means that the car's engine can be startedremotely using the remote control key or thePCC key. This is so that the passenger com-partment can be warmed up/cooled downbefore departure. The climate control system and audio system start with the same settings that were in usewhen the car was parked. An ERS-started engine is activated for a maximum of 15 minutes, then it is switchedoff. After two ERS-activations the enginemust be started in the normal way beforeERS can be re-used. The optional ERS function is available on most cars with automatic gearbox.
NOTE
The service life of the remote control key's battery is affected by the ERS function. Inthe event of frequent use of ERS the bat-tery should therefore be changed once peryear, see Remote control key/PCC -replacing the battery (p. 158).
NOTE
Follow local/national rules/regulations on idling.
WARNING
To remote-start the engine, the following criteria must be met:
• The car must be supervised.
• There must be no people or animals inside the car.
• The car must not be parked in aclosed, unventilated area - the exhaustgases may seriously injure humansand animals.

The Start/Stop function gives the driver the opportunity for a more active environmentallyconscious way of driving the car by means ofbeing able to allow the engine to stop auto-matically, whenever appropriate. Manual or Automatic Note that there are differences in the Start/Stop function depending on whether thegearbox is manual or automatic.

Start/Stop* - function and operation
Some engine and gearbox combinations are equipped with a Start/Stop function whichengages in the event of e.g. stationary trafficor waiting at traffic lights. The Start/Stopfunction is activated automatically when theengine is started with the key.
The Start/Stop function isactivated automatically whenthe engine is started with thekey. The driver is madeaware of this by the func-tion's symbol illuminating inthe combined instrumentpanel and the On/Off buttonlamp illuminating. All of the car's normal sys-
tems such as lighting, radio, etc. work as nor- mal even with an engine that has stoppedautomatically, except that some equipmentmay have the function temporarily reduced,e.g. the climate control system's fan speed orextremely high volume on the audio system.
Engine auto-stopThe following is required for the engine to auto-stop:
ConditionsM/A A
Declutch, set the gear lever in neu- tral position and release the clutchpedal - the engine stops automati-cally.M
Stop the car with the foot brake, and then keep your foot on thepedal - the engine auto-stops.A
AM = Manual gearbox, A = Automatic gearbox.
If the ECO function is acti- vated then the engine mayauto-stop before the car iscompletely stationary.
As verification and reminder that the engine is auto-stopped the com-bined instrument panel's symbol forthe Start/Stop function illuminates.

ECO*
ECO is an innovative Volvo function for auto- matic-gearbox cars, capable of reducing fuelconsumption by up to 5%, depending on thedriver's driving style. The function gives thedriver the option of a more active environ-mentally conscious way of driving.
GeneralThe following are changedupon activation of the ECOfunction:
• Gearbox gearshift points.
• Engine management and response from the accelerator pedal.
• Start/Stop function - the engine can alsoauto-stop before the car has stopped tobeing fully stationary.
• The Eco Coast function is activated -engine braking ceases.
• Climate control system settings - someelectricity consumers are deactivated oroperate at reduced power.
NOTE
When the ECO function is activated, sev- eral parameters in the climate control sys-tem's settings are changed, and severalelectricity consumer functions are reduced- a press of the 
AC button resets the cli-
mate control system, but then withreduced AC function.
ECO - Operation
ECO On/Off
ECO symbol
The ECO function is deactivated when the engine is switched off, and must therefore beactivated after each time the engine isstarted. There are exceptions for certainengines. However, it is easily verified bymeans of both the combined instrument panel 
ECO symbol and the ECO button lamp
illuminating when the function is activated.
ECO function On or OffDisengaged ECO function is indicated by the combined instrument panel 
ECO sym-
bol and the ECO button lamp extinguishing. The function isthen switched off until it isreactivated with the ECObutton.
Eco Coast - FunctionThe Eco Coast subfunction means in practice that engine braking is deactivated, meaning inturn that the car's kinetic energy is used tocoast for longer distances. When the driverreleases the accelerator pedal the gearbox isautomatically disengaged from the enginewhose speed is reduced to idling speed withminimum consumption. This function is intended for use in the event of an anticipated reduction in speed, e.g. toroll forward to an intersection or a red light. Eco Coast enables proactive driving where the driver can use the so-called "Pulse &Glide" technique and a minimum of braking. Combination On and Off A combination of Eco Coast and temporarily deactivated ECO function can also collec-tively contribute to reduced consumption.Accordingly:
• Active Eco Coast: Long coasting 
without
engine braking = Low consumption

and
• Deactivated ECO function: Short coasting with
 engine braking = Minimum con-
sumption.
NOTE
However, to achieve optimal low fuel con- sumption, Eco Coast in combination withshort coasting distances should generallybe avoided.
Activate Eco CoastThe function is activated when the accelera- tor pedal is fully released, in combination withthe following parameters: • The 
ECO  button activated
• The gear selector in 
D position
• Speed within the range of approx. 65-140 km/h
• The road's downhill gradient is notsteeper than approx. 6%.
Deactivate Eco CoastIn certain situations it may be desirable to deactivate the Eco Coast function. Examplesof such situations include:
• on steep downhill gradients - to be able to use engine braking.
• before an imminent overtaking manoeu-vre - in order to be able to complete it inthe safest way possible. Deactivating Eco Coast and returning to engine braking can be performed as follows:
• Press the 
ECO button.
• Move the gear lever to manual "
S+/-"
position.
• Change gear with the steering wheel pad- dle shifters.
• Actuate the accelerator or brake pedal.
Eco Coast - LimitationsThe function is not available if:
• cruise control is activated
• the road's downhill gradient is steeperthan approx. 6%.
• manual gear changing is performed withthe steering wheel paddle shifters*
• engine and/or gearbox are not at normaloperating temperature.
• the gear selector is moved from 
D- to " S
+/- " position
• speed is outside the range ofapprox. 65-140 km/h
