Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)
The ABS system in your car performs a self -diagnostic test when the vehicle first reaches the speed of approximately
12 mph (20 km/h). The brake pedal will pulsate several times and a sound may be audible from the ABS control
module. This is normal.
Fuel filler door
Press the button on the light switch panel (see page 37
) when the car is at a standstill to unlock the fuel filler door.
Please note that the fuel filler door will remain unlocked until the car begins to move forward. An audible click will be
heard when the fuel filler door relocks.
Fuel filler cap
After refueling, close the fuel filler cap by turning it clockwise until it clicks into place. If this cap is not closed tightly
or if the engine is running when the car is refueled, the Malfunction Indicator Lamp ("Check Engine" light) may
indicate a fault.
WARNING! If your vehicle is involved in an accident, unseen damage may affect your vehicle's driveability and
safety.
Important
Before you operate your car for the first time, please familiarize yourself with the new-engine oil consumption
information on page 152
. You should also be familiar with the information in chapters one, two and four of this
manual.
Information contained in the balance of the manual is extremely useful and should be read after operating the
vehicle for the first time.
The manual is structured so that it can be used for reference. For this reason, it should be kept in the car for
ready access. Do not export your Volvo to another country before investigating that country's applicable safety
and exhaust emission requirements. In some cases it may be difficult or impossible to comply with these
requirements. Modifications to the emission control system(s) may render your Volvo not certifiable for legal
operation in the U.S., Canada and other countries.
All information, illustrations and specifications contained in this manual are based on the latest product
information available at the time of publication. Please note that some vehicles may be equipped differently,
depending on special legal requirements and that optional equipment described in this manual may not be
available in all markets.
Volvo reserves the right to make model changes at any time, or to change specifications or design, without
notice and without incurring obligation.

pg. 55 Electronic Climate Control (ECC) with Interior Air Quality system (option)
Interior Air Quality system (option)
Some cars are equipped with a multifilter and air quality sensor. The filter separates gases and particles, thereby
reducing the amounts of odors and contaminants entering the car. The air quality sensor detects increased levels of
contaminants in the outside air. When the Air quality sensor detects contaminated outside air, the air intake closes and
the air inside the passenger compartment is recirculated, i.e. no outside air enters the car. The filter also cleans
recirculated passenger compartment air. When the Air quality sensor is activated, the LED AUT comes on in

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.
pg. 91 Starting the engine
Starting the engine
1. Fasten the seat belt.
WARNING!
Before starting, check that the seat, steering wheel and mirrors adjusted properly.
Make sure the brake pedal can be depressed completely. Adjust the seat if necessary. See page 60.
2. Apply the parking brake, if not already set. The gear selector ( automatic transmission) is locked in the (P)ark
position ( SHIFT -LOCK ).
Manual transmission: the clutch must be fully depressed.
3. Without touching the accelerator pedal, turn the ignition key* to the starting position. Allow the starter to operate
for up to 10 seconds. Release the key as soon as the engine starts. If the engine fails to start, repeat this step.
For cold starts at altitudes above 6000 ft (1800 meters), depress the accelerator pedal halfway and turn the key to the
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
starting position. Release the pedal slowly when the engine starts.
4. To release the gear selector from the (P)ark position, the engine must be running (or the ignition key must be in
position II) and the brake pedal must be depressed. While keeping firm pressure on the brake pedal, release the parking
brake.

Recommended tire pressure (see the placard on the B-pillar or on the fuel filler door) should be maintained irrespective
of which position on the car the temporary spare tire is used on.
In the event of damage to this tire, a new one can be purchased from your Volvo retailer.WARNING!
Current legislation prohibits the use of the "Temporary Spare" tire other than as a temporary replacement for a
punctured tire. It must be replaced as soon as possible by a standard tire. Road holding and handling may be affected
with the "Temporary Spare" in use. Do not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h). Do not drive farther than 50 miles (80 km) on
a temporary spare tire.
CAUTION:
The car must not be driven with wheels of different dimensions or with a spare tire other than the one that came with
the car. The use of different size wheels can seriously damage your car's transmission.

Jack for AWD models
CAUTION:
The car must not be driven with wheels of different dimensions or with a spare tire other than the one that came with
the car. The use of different size wheels can seriously damage your car's transmission.
WARNING!
• The jack's attachment must engage the bar in the jack attachment (see inset illustration on the previous page). The
car's weight must not rest on the jack attachment.
• Be sure the jack is on a firm, level, non-slippery surface.
• Never allow any part of your body to be extended under a car supported by a jack.
• Use the jack intended for the car when replacing a wheel. For any other job, use stands to support the side of the
car being worked on.
• Apply the parking brake, select position P (automatic transmission) or Reverse gear (manual transmission).
• Block the wheels standing on the ground, use rigid wooden blocks or large stones.
• The jack should be kept well-greased.
Installing the wheel
Clean the contact surfaces on the wheel and hub. Lift the wheel and place it on the hub. Make sure that you align the
wheel with the guide stud on the wheel hub prior to installation. Install the wheel bolts crosswise (see illustration) and
tighten by turning lightly clockwise. Lower the vehicle to the ground and alternately tighten the bolts to 102 ft. lbs.
(140 Nm). Install the wheel cap (where applicable).
CAUTION : Correct tightening torque on wheel bolts must be observed. The wheel bolts should never be greased or
lubricated. The extended, chromed wheel bolts must not be used with steel rims, as they make it impossible to fit the
hub caps.
