Start/Stop – Auto-stop exceptions
In certain situations or conditions, the engine may not auto-stop
when the vehicle comes to a
standstill, such as if:
Condition/situation
The vehicle's speed has not reached a speed of approx. 6 mph (10 km/h) after the mostrecent auto-start or after the driver has startedthe engine.
The driver unbuckles his/her seat belt.
The main battery's charge is below the mini- mum level.
The engine has not reached its normal operat- ing temperature.
The ambient temperature is below approx. 25°F (-4°C) or above approx. 85°F (30°C).
The windshield's heating function * is activated.
The climate system cannot keep the desired settings in the passenger compartment; theblower will operate at high speed.
The vehicle is backing up.
The main battery's temperature is below freez- ing or too high.
The driver is turning the steering wheel hard.
Condition/situation
The road's incline is very steep.
A trailer's electrical system is connected to the vehicle.
The hood has been opened A
.
The transmission has not reached its normal operating temperature.
Atmospheric pressure is below a level equiva- lent to an altitude of approx. 4,900–8,200 ft(1500–2500 m) above sea level. The actualpressure is also affected by current weatherconditions.
The Adaptive Cruise Control's * Queue Assist
feature is activated.

NOTE
Unleaded fuel is required for vehicles with three-way catalytic converters.
Heated oxygen sensorsThe heated oxygen sensors monitor the oxygen content of the exhaust gases. Readings are fedinto a control module that continuously monitorsengine functions and controls fuel injection. Theratio of fuel to air into the engine is continuouslyadjusted for efficient combustion to help reduceharmful emissions.

Economical driving
Better driving economy may be obtained by thinking ahead, avoiding rapid starts and stopsand adjusting the speed of your vehicle to imme-diate traffic conditions.
Economical driving conserves natural
resources
Observe the following rules: • Bring the engine to normal operating tem- perature as soon as possible by driving witha light foot on the accelerator pedal for thefirst few minutes of operation. A cold engineuses more fuel and is subject to increasedwear.
• Whenever possible, avoid using the vehiclefor driving short distances. This does notallow the engine to reach normal operatingtemperature.
• Drive carefully and avoid rapid accelerationand hard braking.
• Use the transmission's Drive (
D) position as
often as possible and avoid using kick-down.
• Using the engine's optional Eco function canhelp improve fuel economy. For additional information, see ECO
* (p. 273).
• Using the transmission's Sport mode may increase fuel consumption somewhat. Use the transmission's Drive (
D) position as often
as possible. For additional information about Sport mode, see Transmission – Geartronic (p. 264).
• Do not exceed posted speed limits.
• Avoid carrying unnecessary items (extra load)in the vehicle.
• Maintain correct tire pressure. Check tirepressure regularly (when tires are cold).
• Remove snow tires when threat of snow orice has ended.
• Note that roof racks, ski racks, etc, increaseair resistance and also fuel consumption.
• At highway driving speeds, fuel consumptionwill be lower with the air conditioning on andthe windows closed than with the air condi-tioning off and the windows open.
• Using the onboard trip computer's fuel con-sumption modes can help you learn how todrive 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 othersare checked at the standard maintenance inter-vals.

301
Tires – storage and ageWhen storing complete wheels (tires mounted on rims), they should be suspended off the flooror placed on their sides on the floor.
New Tires
Remember that tires are perishable goods. As of 2000, the manufacturing week and year (Depart-ment of Transportation (DOT) stamp) will be indi-cated with 4 digits (e.g., 1513 means that the tireillustrated was manufactured during week 15 of2013).
Tire ageTires degrade over time, even when they are not being used. It is recommended that tires gener-ally be replaced after 6 years of normal service.Heat caused by hot climates, frequent high load-ing conditions or Ultra Violet (U.V.) exposure can accelerate the aging process. The temporary spare
1
should also be replaced at 6-year inter-
vals, even if it has never been used. A tire's age can be determined by the DOT stamp on the sidewall (see the illustration). A tire with e.g., visible cracks or discoloration should be replaced immediately.
Storing wheels and tiresWhen storing completes wheels (tires mountedon rims), they should be suspended off the flooror placed on their sides on the floor. Tires not mounted on rims should be stored on their sides or standing upright, but should not besuspended.
CAUTION
Tires should preferably be stored in a cool, dry, dark place, and should never be stored inclose proximity to solvents, gasoline, oils, etc.
WARNING
• The wheel and tire sizes for your Volvo are specified to meet stringent stabilityand handling requirements. Unapprovedwheel/tire size combinations can nega-tively affect your vehicle's stability andhandling.
• Any damage caused by installation ofunapproved wheel/tire size combinationswill not be covered by your new vehiclewarranty. Volvo assumes no responsibilityfor death, injury, or expenses that mayresult from such installations.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) – recalibrating
In certain cases, it may be necessary to recali- brate TPMS to conform to Volvo's recom-mended tire inflation pressures (see the tire infla-tion decal on the driver's door opening), forexample, if higher inflation pressure is necessarywhen transporting heavy loads.
Recalibrating TPMS (Canadian models
only) *
This is done in the vehicle's menu system. To recalibrate:
1. Switch off the engine.
2. Inflate the tires to the desired pressure and
put the ignition in mode I or II (see Ignition
modes (p. 80) for additional information).
3. Press the MY CAR key in the center console
control panel and select

settings
Tire pressure.
4. Press OK/MENU , select
Calibrate tire
pressure and press OK/MENU again.
5. Drive the vehicle at a speed above 20 mph (30 km/h) continuously for at least 10 minutes.
> Calibration is done automatically once ini-tiated by the driver and the system does not give any confirmation when calibrationis finished. After adjusting inflation pressure, repeat steps1-5 above.
