Loading – general
The load carrying capacity of your vehicle is determined by factors such as the number ofpassengers, the amount of cargo, the weightof any accessories that may be installed, etc. To increase loading space, the rear seat backrests can be folded down, see Rearseats – folding backrest (p. 84). When loading the cargo area, keep the fol- lowing in mind:
• Load objects in the cargo area against the backrest whenever possible.
• Unstable loads can be secured to theload anchoring eyelets with straps or weblashings to help keep them from shifting.
• Stop the engine and apply the parkingbrake when loading or unloading longobjects. The gear selector can beknocked out of position by long loads,which could set the vehicle in motion.WARNING
•Stop the engine, put the gear selector in
P, and apply the parking brake
when loading or unloading longobjects.
• The vehicle's driving characteristicsmay change depending on the weightand distribution of the load.
• A 44-pound (20 kg) object produces aforce of 2,200 pounds (1,000 kg) in ahead-on collision at 30 mph (50 km/h).
• The cargo area and rear seat shouldnot be loaded to a level higher than2 in. (5 cm) below the upper edge ofthe rear side windows. Objects placedhigher than this level could impede thefunction of the Inflatable Curtain.

Loading – roof load carriers
Using load carriersLoad carriers are available as Volvo accesso- ries. Observe the following points when inuse:
• To avoid damaging your vehicle and to achieve maximum safety when driving,we recommend using the load carriersthat Volvo has developed especially foryour vehicle.
• Volvo-approved removable roof racks aredesigned to carry the maximum allowableroof load for this vehicle: 220 lbs (100 kg).For non-Volvo roof racks, check the man-ufacturer's weight limits for the rack.
• Never exceed the rack manufacturer'sweigh limits and never exceed the maxi-mum rated roof load of 220 lbs (100 kg).
• Avoid single-point loads. Distribute loadsevenly.
• Place heavier cargo at the bottom of theload.
• Secure the cargo correctly with appropri-ate tie-down equipment.
• Check periodically that the load carriersand load are properly secured.
• Remember that the vehicle's center ofgravity and handling change when youcarry a load on the roof.

City Safety – operation
Using City Safety™
NOTE
The City Safety™ function is activated automatically each time the engine hasbeen switched off and restarted.
On and OffIn certain situations, it may be desirable to switch City Safety™ off, such as when drivingin close quarters where leaves, branches, etc.may obscure the hood and windshield. When the engine is running, City Safety™ can be switched off as follows: Press My Car in the center console control
panel and go to
SettingsCar settings
Driver support systemsCity Safety.
Select
Off.
If the engine is switched off, City Safety™ will reactivate when the engine is restarted.
WARNING
The laser sensor emits light when the igni- tion is in mode II or higher, even if City
Safety™ has been switched off.
To switch City Safety™ on again:
• Follow the same procedure as for switch- ing City Safety™ off but select
On.

City Safety – limitations
Limitations
WARNING
The laser sensor has certain limitations and its function may be reduced (or it maynot function at all) in conditions such asheavy rain or snowfall, or by dense fog orthick, blowing dust or snow. Condensa-tion, dirt, ice or snow on the windshieldmay also interfere with the sensor’s func-tion.
The sensor used by City Safety™ is designed to detect cars and other larger motor vehiclesahead of your vehicle in both daylight anddarkness. Objects such as warning flags hanging from long objects on the roof or accessories suchas auxiliary lights or protective arches on thefront of the vehicle that are higher than thehood may also impede the sensor’s function. Braking distance to the vehicle ahead increa- ses on slippery road surfaces, which mayreduce City Safety’s capacity to avoid a colli-sion. In situations like this, the stability sys-tem (see Stability system – introduction(p. 169)) will help provide the best possiblebraking capacity and stability. City Safety™ emits a laser beam and meas- ures the way in which the light is reflected.

• Using the engine's optional Eco func- tion18
can help improve fuel economy. For
additional information, see ECO* (p. 267).
• Using the transmission's Sport mode 19
may increase fuel consumption some- what. Use the transmission's Drive ( D)
position as often as possible. For addi-tional information about Sport mode, seeTransmission – Geartronic (p. 259).
• Do not exceed posted speed limits.
• Avoid carrying unnecessary items (extraload) in the vehicle.
• Maintain correct tire pressure. Check tirepressure regularly (when tires are cold).
• Remove snow tires when threat of snowor ice has ended.
• Note that roof racks, ski racks, etc,increase air resistance and also fuel con-sumption.
• At highway driving speeds, fuel consump-tion will be lower with the air conditioningon and the windows closed than with theair conditioning off and the windowsopen.
• Using the onboard trip computer's fuelconsumption modes can help you learnhow to drive more economically.
Other factors that decrease gas mileage are: •
Dirty air cleaner
• Dirty engine oil and clogged oil filter
• Dragging brakes
• Incorrect front end alignment
Some of the above mentioned items and oth-ers are checked at the standard maintenanceintervals.
WARNING
Driving with the tailgate open: Driving
with the tailgate open could lead to poi- sonous exhaust gases entering the pas-senger compartment. If the tailgate mustbe kept open for any reason, proceed asfollows: • Close the windows
• Set the ventilation system control to air flow to floor, windshield and side win-dows and the blower control to itshighest setting.
Handling and roadholdingAt the specified curb weight your vehicle has a tendency to understeer, which means thatthe steering wheel has to be turned morethan might seem appropriate for the curva-ture of a bend. This ensures good stabilityand reduces the risk of rear wheel skid.Remember that these properties can alter with the vehicle load. The heavier the load inthe cargo area, the less the tendency toundersteer. •
Vehicle load, tire design and inflation pressure all affect vehicle handling.Therefore, check that the tires are inflatedto the recommended pressure accordingto the vehicle load. Loads should be dis-tributed so that capacity weight or maxi-mum permissible axle loads are notexceeded.
• At the specified curb weight your vehiclehas a tendency to understeer, whichmeans that the steering wheel has to beturned more than might seem appropriatefor the curvature of a bend. This ensuresgood stability and reduces the risk of rearwheel skid. Remember that these proper-ties can alter with the vehicle load. Theheavier the load in the cargo compart-ment, the less the tendency to under-steer.

Washing the car
The vehicle should be washed at regular inter- vals since dirt, dust, insects and tar spotsadhere to the paint and may cause damage.To help prevent corrosion, it is particularlyimportant to wash the car frequently in thewintertime. The following points should be kept in mind when washing and cleaning the car: •Avoid washing your car in direct sunlight. Doing so may cause detergents and waxto dry out and become abrasive. To avoidscratching, use lukewarm water to softenthe dirt before you wash with a softsponge, and plenty of sudsy water.
• Bird droppings
: Remove from paintwork
as soon as possible. Otherwise the finishmay be permanently damaged.
• A detergent can be used to facilitate thesoftening of dirt and oil.
• Dry the car with a clean chamois andremember to clean the drain holes in thedoors and rocker panels.
• Tar spots can be removed with tarremover after the car has been washed.
• A stiff-bristle brush and lukewarm soapywater can be used to clean the wiperblades. Frequent cleaning of the wind-shield and wiper blades improves visibilityconsiderably and also helps prolong theservice life of the wiper blades. •
Wash off the dirt from the underside(wheel housings, fenders, etc).
• In areas of high industrial fallout, morefrequent washing is recommended.
NOTE
When washing the car, remember to remove dirt from the drain holes in thedoors and sills.
CAUTION
• During high pressure washing, the spray mouthpiece must never becloser to the vehicle than 13" (30 cm).Do not spray into the locks.
• Dirt, snow, etc., on the headlights canreduce lighting capacity considerably.Clean the headlights regularly, forexample when refueling.
Special moonroof cautions:
• Always close the moonroof and sunshade before washing your vehicle.
• Never use abrasive cleaning agents onthe moonroof.
• Never use wax on the rubber sealsaround the moonroof.
Exterior componentsVolvo recommends the use of special clean- ing products, available at your Volvo retailer, for cleaning colored plastic, rubber, or orna-mental components such as chromed stripson the exterior of your vehicle. The instruc-tions for using these products should be fol-lowed carefully. Solvents or stain removersshould not be used.
