tion, see Key positions (p. 70) for more information.
2. Press the START button without
depressing the brake and/or clutch pedal.
3. Wait approx. 1 minute.
4. To start the engine: Depress the brake and/or clutch pedal and then press the START button again.
NOTE
Before filling with fuel in the event of fuel shortage:
• Stop the car on as flat/level ground as possible - if the car is tilting there is arisk of air pockets in the fuel supply.
Draining condensation from the fuel filter
The fuel filter separates condensation from the fuel. Condensation can disrupt engineoperation. The fuel filter must be drained at the intervals specified in the Service and Warranty Bookletor if you suspect that the car has been filledwith contaminated fuel. For more information,see Volvo service programme (p. 340).
IMPORTANT
Certain special additives remove the water separation in the fuel filter.

Catalytic converters
The purpose of the catalytic converters is to purify exhaust gases. They are located closeto the engine so that operating temperature isreached quickly. The catalytic converters consist of a monolith (ceramic or metal) with channels. The channelwalls are lined with a thin layer of platinum/rhodium/palladium. These metals act as cata-lysts, i.e. they participate in and accelerate achemical reaction without being used upthemselves.
Lambda-sond TM
oxygen sensorThe Lambda-sond is part of a control systemintended to reduce emissions and improvefuel economy (see Fuel consumption andCO2 emissions (p. 403)). An oxygen sensor monitors the oxygen con- tent of the exhaust gases leaving the engine.This value is fed into an electronic systemthat continuously controls the injectors. Theratio of fuel to air directed to the engine iscontinuously adjusted. These adjustmentscreate optimal conditions for efficient com-bustion, and together with the three-way cat-alytic converter reduce harmful emissions(hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide and nitrousoxides).

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.
