Trailer stabiliser - TSA 17
The trailer stability assist (TSA - Trailer Stability Assist) function is designed to stabi-lise the car and trailer combination if it beginsto snake. The trailer stability assist is included in the stability and traction control system (p. 175)(DSTC - Dynamic Stability and TractionControl).
FunctionThe snaking phenomenon can occur with anycar/trailer combination. Snaking normallyoccurs at high speeds. But, there is a risk of itoccurring at lower speeds (70-90 km/h) if thetrailer is overloaded or the load is improperlydistributed, e.g. too far back. In order for snaking to occur, there must be a triggering factor, e.g.:
• Car with trailer subjected to a sudden and powerful side wind.
• Car with trailer drives on an uneven roadsurface or in a pothole.
• Sweeping steering wheel movements.
OperationIf snaking has started, it could be difficult or even impossible to suppress. This makes thecar/trailer combination difficult to control andthere is a risk that you could, for example,

end up in the wrong lane or leave the car- riageway. The trailer stability assist continually monitors the car's movements, particularly lateralmovements. If snaking is detected, the frontwheels are individually braked. This serves tostabilise the car/trailer combination. This isoften enough to help the driver regain controlof the car. If snaking is not eliminated the first time the trailer stability assist comes into action, thecar/trailer combination is braked with allwheels and engine power is reduced. Oncesnaking has been gradually suppressed andthe car/trailer combination is stable onceagain, the system stops regulating and thedriver once again has full control of the car.For more information, see Stability and trac-tion control system (DSTC) - operation (p.176)
MiscellaneousThe trailer stability assist can engage withinthe speed interval 60-160 km/h.
NOTE
TSA function is switched off if the driver selects Sport mode, see Stability and
traction control system (DSTC) (p. 175).
The trailer stability assist may fail to engage if the driver uses sudden steering wheel move-ments to try to rectify the snaking because in such a situation the system cannot determinewhether it is the trailer or the driver that iscausing the snaking.
When the trailer stability assist isworking, the combined instrument
panel's DSTC symbol flashes.

Towing
During towing, one vehicle is towed by another vehicle using a tow rope.
IMPORTANT
Note that the car must always be towed with the wheels rolling forward. Do not tow the vehicle at speeds higher than 80 km/h or for distances in excess of80 km.
Find out the statutory maximum speed limit for towing before towing begins.
1. Unlock the steering lock by inserting the
remote control key in the ignition switch and giving a long press on the START/
STOP ENGINE button - key position II is
activated, see Key positions (p. 70) formore information about key positions.
2. The remote control key must remain in the ignition switch while the car is beingtowed.
3. Keep the towline taut when the towing vehicle reduces speed by holding yourfoot gently pressed on the brake pedal -thereby avoiding unnecessary jerking.
4. Be prepared to brake to stop.

WARNING
•Check that the steering lock is unlocked before towing.
• The remote control key must be in keyposition
II - in position I all airbags are
deactivated.
• Never remove the remote control keyfrom the ignition switch when the caris being towed.
WARNING
The brake servo and power steering do not work when the engine is switched off - thebrake pedal needs to be depressedabout 5 times more heavily and the steer-ing is considerably heavier than normal.
Manual gearboxPrior to towing:
–Move gear lever into neutral and release the parking brake.
Automatic gearbox GeartronicPrior to towing:
–Move the gear selector to position
N and
release the parking brake.
Automatic gearbox PowershiftThe model with Powershift transmission should not be towed as it is dependent on theengine running in order to receive sufficient lubrication. If towing still has to take place,the route must be as short as possible andthen with very low speed. In the event of uncertainty as to whether or not the car is equipped with Powershift trans-mission, this can be verified by checking thedesignation on the gearbox label under thebonnet, see Type designations (p. 386). Thedesignation ”MPS6” means that it isPowershift transmission - otherwise it isGeartronic automatic transmission.
IMPORTANT
Avoid towing.
• However, the car can be towed for a short distance at low speed to move itfrom a dangerous position - not furtherthan 10 km and not faster than10 km/h. Note that the car mustalways be towed with the wheels roll-ing forward.
• In the event of moving a longer dis-tance than 10 km, the car must betransported with the drive wheelsraised from the road - professionalrecovery is recommended.
Prior to towing:
–Move the gear selector to position
N and
release the parking brake.
Jump startingDo not tow the car to bump start the engine. Use a donor battery if the battery is dis-charged and the engine does not start, seeJump starting with battery (p. 270).
IMPORTANT
The catalytic converter may be damaged during attempts to tow-start the engine.

Tyres - air pressure
Tyres can have different air pressures which are measured in bar.
Check the air pressure in the tyresThe tyre pressures must be checked everymonth.
• Tyre pressure for the car's recommended tyre dimension
• ECO pressure 2
NOTE
•
Check the tyre pressure when the tyres are cold. "Cold tyres" means thatthe tyres are at the same temperatureas the outdoor temperature. The tyreswill heat up and the tyre pressures willincrease after driving for a few kilome-tres.
• Tyre pressures which are too low willincrease fuel consumption, reduce tyreservice life and impair the car's han-dling. Driving with tyre pressureswhich are too low may lead to thetyres overheating and sustaining dam-age. Tyre pressures affect ride com-fort, road noise and steering.
• Tyre pressure decreases over time,this is a natural phenomenon. Tyrepressure also varies depending onambient temperature.
Tyre pressure label
G021830
The tyre pressure label on the driver's side door pillar (between frame and rear door)shows which pressures the tyres should haveat different loads and speed conditions. Thisis also specified in the tyre pressure table,see Tyres - approved tyre pressures (p. 407).
Fuel economy, ECO pressureIn order to obtain optimum fuel economy atspeeds below 160 km/h an ECO pressure isrecommended (applies to both full and lightload), see Tyres - approved tyre pressures (p.407).

Stains on fabric upholstery and roof
upholstery
A special fabric cleaning agent, available from authorised Volvo dealers, is recommended toavoid impairing the fire retardant qualities ofthe upholstery.
IMPORTANT
Sharp objects and Velcro may damage the fabric upholstery.
Stains on leather upholsteryVolvo's leather upholstery is treated to pre- serve its original appearance. Leather upholstery ages and acquires a beau- tiful patina over time. The leather is refinedand processed so that it retains its naturalcharacteristics. It is given a protective coa-ting, but regular cleaning is required in orderto maintain both characteristics and appear-ance. Volvo offers a comprehensive productfor the cleaning and treatment of leatherupholstery which, when used in accordancewith the instructions, preserves the leather'sprotective coating. After a period of use thenatural appearance of the leather will never-theless emerge, depending more or less onthe surface texture of the leather. This is anatural maturing of the leather and showsthat it is a natural product. To achieve best results Volvo recommendscleaning and the application of protectivecream once to four times per year (or more ifnecessary). The Volvo Leather Care kit isavailable from your Volvo dealer.
IMPORTANT
•
Certain items of coloured clothing (for example, jeans and suede garments)may stain the upholstery.
• Never use strong solvents. Such prod-ucts may damage fabric, vinyl andleather upholstery.
Washing instructions for leather upholstery
1. Pour the leather cleaner on the damp-
ened sponge and squeeze out a strong foam.
2. Work the dirt away with gentle circular movements.
3. Dab accurately with the sponge on the stains. Allow the sponge to absorb thestain. Do not rub.
4. Wipe off with soft paper or a cloth and allow the leather to dry completely.
Protective treatment of leather upholstery
1. Pour a small amount of the protective cream on the felted cloth and massage in a thin layer of cream with gentle circularmovements on the leather.
2. Allow the leather to dry for 20 minutes before use.
The leather has now been given improvedprotection against stains and improved UVprotection.
Washing instructions for the leather steering wheel
• Remove dirt and dust with a soft pre- moistened sponge and neutral soap.
• Leather needs to breathe. Never coverthe leather steering wheel with protectiveplastic.
• Use natural oils. Volvo's leather careagents are recommended for best results.
If the steering wheel has stains: Group 1 (ink, wine, coffee, milk, sweat and
blood)
–Use a soft cloth or sponge. Mix a 5% ammonia solution. (For blood stains, usea solution of 2 dl water and 25g salt.)
Group 2 (fats, oils, sauces and chocolate)
1. Same procedure as for group 1.
2. Polish with an absorbent paper or cloth.
