pg. 49 Electronic Climate Control (ECC)
AUTO
This function automatically regulates the Electronic Climate Control system so that the selected temperatures are
maintained. The blower, heating, air distribution (air flow) and air conditioning are controlled. If you prefer to
manually set any of these functions, the remaining functions will still be controlled automatically. Pressing the AUTO
button overrides any settings that were previously made manually.
Temperature
These controls are used to individually set the temperature for both sides of the passenger compartment. Please note
that the compartment will not be heated or cooled faster by setting the temperature higher or lower than necessary. Set
the control to the temperature you prefer.
Defroster
This function demists/de-ices the windshield and front side windows. The LED in the switch will light up to indicate
that the defrost function is engaged. Blower speed increases automatically and the air in the passenger compartment is
dehumidified. Recirculation will not function while defrost is engaged.
Heated rear window/sideview mirrors
ProCarManuals.com

This function demists/de-ices the rear window and sideview mirrors. The LED in the switch will light up to indicate
that the heating function is engaged. See page 38 for additional information on this function.

Recirculation (see also page 48)
Press this switch to engage the recirculation function (air in the passenger compartment recirculates - no fresh air
enters the compartment). The LED in the switch will light up to indicate that the function is engaged.
Use this function if the outside air is contaminated with exhaust gases, smoke, etc or to heat/cool the car quickly.
Recirculation should not be used for more than 15 minutes. If your windows begin to fog or mist, make sure that the
recirculation function is switched off.
Selecting Defroster automatically switches recirculation off.
Timer mode activation: (Cars with Interior Air Quality system have no timer mode) Press and hold the recirculation
button for at least 3 seconds to activate a recirculation timer mode. The amber LED in the recirculation button will
flash 5 times to show that the timer mode is being activated. In the timer mode, each time the recirculation button is
pressed, the climate control system will recirculate the air in the passenger compartment for 5-12 minutes, depending
on the outside air and then revert back to fresh air.
Timer mode deactivation: Press and hold the recirculation button for at least 3 seconds. The amber LED in the
recirculation button will illuminate steadily for 5 seconds to show a return to "normal" mode.
In normal mode, when the recirculation button is pressed, the climate control system will recirculate the air in the
passenger compartment until the recirculation button is pressed again.
Timer mode memory: If the car is turned off while timer mode is active, timer mode will still be active when the
car is restarted.
Heated front seats (option)
Please see page 38 for more information on this function.
Press AUTO to automatically regulate air flow or press any combination of the controls shown in the illustration to
manually adjust air flow. An LED in the switch will light up if an air flow control has been pressed.
Air conditioning ON/OFF
ProCarManuals.com

You can switch between these three functions by repeatedly pressing
Keep the following in mind:
Make it a rule to have the Air quality sensor activated at all times.
Recirculation is limited in cold climates to avoid misting up.
If misting occurs, you should deactivate the Air quality sensor.
If the windows mist up, you can also use the windshield and side window defroster functions. See page 49.
The filter should be changed at the intervals listed in the Warranty and Service Records Information booklet.
However, if the car is used in a severely contaminated environment, it may be necessary to change the filter more
frequently.

Heated rear window/sideview mirrors
ProCarManuals.com

This function demists/de-ices the rear window and sideview mirrors. The LED in the switch will light up to indicate
that the heating function is engaged. See page 38
for additional information on this function.
CAUTION:
Never use ice scrapers made of metal as they can easily scratch the mirror surface.
Recirculation
Recirculation can be used to shut out stale air, exhaust, etc. from the passenger compartment. The air in the passenger
compartment is then recirculated, i. e. no air from outside the car is taken into the car when this function is activated.
Recirculation (together with the air conditioning system) cools the passenger compartment more quickly in warm
weather.
If you allow the air in the car to recirculate, there is a risk of icing and fogging, especially in winter. The timer function
minimizes the risk of ice, misting and stale air.
Activate the timer function as follows:
Press for more that 3 seconds. the LED flashes for 5 seconds. the air recirculates in the car for 3-12 minutes
depending on the outside temperature.
The timer function is activated each time you press .
To switch off the timer function :
Press again for more than 3 seconds. The LED lights for 5 seconds to confirm your selection.
Recirculation is always disconnected when you select Defroster
.
Blower
Blower speed can be increases or decreased by turning the knob. If the knob is set to 0, the air conditioning function is
automatically disengaged.
Temperature
Turn the control to set the temperature for the driver's and passenger's sides of the car. For cooler air, the air
conditioning function must be engaged.

doors immediately if the key is left in the ignition switch, the car is locked using the lock button on the door and the
door is then closed. A sound from the lock will be audible at this time.
Please note that this function will not unlock the doors if the engine is running.
Immobilizer (start inhibitor)
Each of the keys supplied with your car contains a coded transmitter. The code in the key is transmitted to an antenna
in the ignition switch where it is compared to the code stored in the start inhibitor module. The car will start only with
a properly coded key. If you misplace a key, take the other keys to an authorized Volvo retailer for reprogramming as
an antitheft measure.
*This key operates only driver's door and ignition switch/steering wheel lock.

Open the fuel filler cap slowly during hot weather conditions.
NOTE: During a transitional period, a small number of service stations may still have fuel nozzles that are not
compatible with the fuel filler neck on cars equipped with the evaporative control system. Please refer to page 132
for
additional information.
WARNING!
Never carry a cell phone that is switched on while refueling your vehicle. If the phone rings, this may cause a spark
that could ignite gasoline fumes, resulting in fire and injury.
CAUTION:
Do not refuel with the engine running *. Turn the ignition off or to position I. If the ignition is on, an incorrect
reading could occur in the fuel gauge.
After refueling, close the fuel filler cap by turning it clockwise until it clicks into place *.
Allow for fuel expansion by not overfilling the tank. Overfilling could also cause damage to the emission control
systems.
Avoid spilling gasoline when refueling. In addition to causing damage to the environment, gasolines containing
alcohol can cause damage to painted surfaces, which may not be covered under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
Do not use gasolines containing methanol (methyl alcohol, wood alcohol). This practice can result in vehicle
performance deterioration and can damage critical parts in the fuel system. Such damage may not be covered under the
New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
* If the fuel filler cap is not closed tightly or if the engine is running when the car is refueled, the Check Engine light
(malfunction indicator lamp) may indicate a fault. However, your vehicle's performance will not be affected. Use only
Volvo original or approved fuel filler caps.

starting position. Release the pedal slowly when the engine starts.
NOTE:
On certain models, when the car is started, idle speed may be noticeably higher than normal for a short period,
depending on the temperature of the engine.
This has been done to help bring components in the emission control system to their normal operating temperature as
quickly as possible, which enables them to function normally.
For cold starts at altitudes above 6000 ft (1800 meters), depress the accelerator pedal halfway and turn the key to the
