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.

Lowest heat level - one orange field illu-minates in the screen.
• Switch off the heat - no field illuminates.
WARNING
Heated seats must not be used by people who find it difficult to perceive an increasein temperature due to a lack of sensationor who otherwise have problems operatingthe controls for the heated seats. Other-wise they may suffer burn injuries.
Automatic start of driver's seat heatingWith the automatic start of the driver's seat heating activated, the driver's seat will havethe highest heat level when the engine isstarted.

Loading
Payload depends on the car's kerb weight. Payload depends on the car's kerb weight. The total of the weight of the passengers andall accessories reduces the car's payload bya corresponding weight. For more detailedinformation on weights, see Weights (p. 390).
The tailgate is opened via a buttonon the lighting panel or the remotecontrol key, see Locking/unlocking -
tailgate (p. 167).
WARNING
The car’s driving properties change depending on the weight and positioningof the load.
To bear in mind when loading
• Position the load firmly against the rear seat's backrest.
Note that objects must not prevent the func- tion of the WHIPS system for the front seats ifany of the rear seat's backrests is foldeddown, seeWHIPS - seating position (p. 35).
• Centre the load.
• Heavy objects should be placed as low as possible. Avoid placing heavy loads onlowered backrests.
• Cover sharp edges with something soft toavoid damaging the upholstery. •
Secure all loads to the load retaining eye-lets with straps or web lashings.
WARNING
A loose object weighing 20 kg can, in a frontal collision at a speed of 50 km/h,carry the impact of an item weighing1000 kg.
WARNING
The protection provided by the inflatable curtain in the headlining may be compro-mised or eliminated by high loads.
• Never load cargo above the backrest.
WARNING
Always secure the load. During heavy braking the load may otherwise shift, caus-ing injury to the car's occupants. Cover sharp edges and sharp corners with something soft. Switch off the engine and apply the park- ing brake when loading/unloading longitems. Otherwise you may accidentallyknock the gear lever or gear selector withthe load into a drive position - and the carcould then move off.

Loading - long load
To simplify loading (p. 142) in the cargo area, the rear seat backrest can be folded down.The passenger seat backrest can also be folded for an extra long load2
.
Lowering the rear seat backrestTo simplify loading in the cargo area, the rear seat backrest can be folded down, see Seats,rear (p. 74).
Roof load
The load carriers recommended for roof loads are the ones developed by Volvo. This is inorder to avoid damage to the car and in orderto achieve the maximum possible safety dur-ing a journey. Carefully follow the installation instructions supplied with the carriers.
• Check periodically that the load carriers and load are properly secured. Lash theload securely with retaining straps.
• Distribute the load evenly over the loadcarriers. Put the heaviest objects at thebottom.
• The size of the area exposed to the wind,and therefore fuel consumption, increasewith the size of the load.
• Drive gently. Avoid quick acceleration,heavy braking and hard cornering.
WARNING
The car's centre of gravity and driving cha- racteristics are altered by roof loads. Forinformation about the maximum allowableload on the roof, including load carriersand any space box, Weights (p. 390).

PCC memory functionIf several people each with a PCC approachthe car, then the settings for seat and mirrorsare implemented for the person who opensthe driver's door. After the driver's door has been opened by person A with PCC A but person B withPCC B shall drive, the settings can bechanged as follows:
• Standing by the driver's door, or sitting behind the steering wheel, person Bpresses their PCC's unlock button, seeRemote control key - functions (p. 151).
• Select one of three possible memories forseat adjustment with seat button 1-3, seeSeats, front - electrically operated (p. 73).

Weights
Max. gross vehicle weight, etc. can be read on a label in the car. Kerb weight includes the driver, the fuel tank 90% full and all fluids. The weight of passengers and accessories, and towball load (p. 391) (when a trailer ishitched) influence the load capacity and arenot included in the kerb weight. Permitted max. load = Gross vehicle weight - Kerb weight.
NOTE
The documented kerb weight applies to cars in the standard version - i.e. a carwithout extra equipment or accessories.This means that for every accessory addedthe loading capacity of the car is reducedcorrespondingly by the weight of theaccessory. Examples of accessories that reduce load- ing capacity are the Kinetic/Momentum/Summum equipment levels, as well asother accessories such as Towbar, Loadcarriers, Space box, Audio system, Auxili-ary lamps, GPS, Fuel-driven heater, Safetygrille, Carpets, Cargo cover, Power seats,etc. Weighing the car is a certain way of ascer- taining the kerb weight of your own partic-ular car.
WARNING
The car's driving characteristics change depending on how heavily it is loaded andhow the load is distributed.
For information on label location, see Type des- ignations (p. 386).
