Voice recognition 8
The voice recognition system allows the driver to use voice recognition to control certain functionsof the media player, Bluetooth-connected phone,the climate system and Volvo's navigation sys- tem *.
Voice commands offer convenience and help the driver to avoid being distracted, and instead con-centrate on driving and focus attention on theroad and the traffic conditions.
WARNING
The driver always holds overall responsibility for driving the vehicle in a safe manner andcomplying with all applicable rules of the road.
Voice control system microphone
Voice recognition control takes place in dialogue form with spoken commands from the user andverbal response from the system. The voice rec-ognition system uses the same microphone asthe Bluetooth handsfree system and the voicerecognition system's replies come via the car'sspeakers. In some cases, a text message is alsoshown in the driver display. Functions are con-trolled from the right-hand steering wheel key-pad. Settings are made via the centre display.
System updating
The voice recognition system is continuously improved. Download updates for optimal perform-ance, see support.volvocars.com.

The settings view has 7 main categories: My Car,Sound, Navigation, Media, Communication,Climate and System.
In turn, each category contains a number of sub- categories and setting options. The tables belowshow the first level of subcategories. The settingoptions for a function or area are described inmore detail in the corresponding section of theowner's manual.

2-zone climate
Climate zones with 2-zone climate.
With 2-zone climate, the temperature in the pas- senger compartment can be set separately forthe left and right-hand sides. All climate control system functions are con- trolled from the centre display and physical but-tons in the centre console.
4-zone climate *
Climate zones with 4-zone climate.
With 4-zone climate the temperature in the pas- senger compartment can be set separately forthe left and right-hand sides in both the front andrear seat.

CLIMATE CONTROL
* Option/accessory.183
Climate control - sensors The climate control system has a number of sen- sors to help control the climate in the car.
Sensor location
Moisture sensor - in the casing by the inte- rior rearview mirror.
Outside temperature sensor - in the right- hand door mirror.
Sun sensor - on the upper side of the instru- ment panel.
Temperature sensor for the passenger com- partment - by the physical buttons in thecentre console.
NOTE
Do not cover or block the sensors with cloth- ing or other objects.
With the Interior Air Quality System * there is also
an air quality sensor that is fitted into the climate control system air intake.

* (p. 185)
Perceived temperature
The climate control system regulates the climate in the passenger compartment based on theperceived temperature, not on actual tempera-ture.
The temperature you select in the passenger compartment corresponds to the physically per-ceived temperature as affected by factors suchas the ambient temperature, air speed, humidity,solar radiation, etc. in and around the car at thetime. The system includes a sun sensor which detects on which side the sun is shining into the passen-ger compartment. This means that the tempera-ture can differ between the right and left-handside's air vents despite the controls being set forthe same temperature on both sides.

Air quality
The materials selected for the passenger com- partment and the air cleaning system ensure thatthe air quality in the passenger compartment ishigh.
Materials in the passenger compartment
The interior of the passenger compartment is designed to be pleasant and comfortable, evenfor people with contact allergies and for asthmasufferers. Tested materials have been developed in order to minimise the quantity of dust in the passengercompartment and to contribute to making thepassenger compartment easier to keep clean. The carpets in both the passenger compartment and the cargo area are removable and easy toremove and clean. Use cleaning agents and car care products rec- ommended by Volvo to clean the interior.
Air cleaning systemIn addition to the passenger compartment filter,the modifications for Clean Zone Interior Package * and the air quality system Interior Air
Quality System * also help to maintain high air
quality in the passenger compartment.
Clean Zone *The Clean Zone function checks whether or not all conditions have been met for good air qualityin the passenger compartment.
The indicator is visible in the climate view in the centre display.
The indicator is visible in the climate row when the climate view is not open.
If the conditions have not been met then the
Clean Zone text is white. When all conditions
have been met, this is indicated by the text changing colour to blue. Conditions that are checked:
• That all doors and the tailgate are closed.
• That all side windows and the panorama roof
* are closed.
• That the air quality system Interior Air QualitySystem
* is activated. •
That the ventilation fan is activated.
• That the air recirculation is deactivated.
NOTE
Clean Zone does not indicate that the air quality is good. It only indicates that the con-ditions for good air quality have been met.

Passenger compartment filter All air entering the car's passenger compartment is cleaned with a filter.
Replacing the passenger compartment
filter
To maintain high climate system performance, the filter must be changed at regular intervals.Follow the Volvo Service Programme for the rec-ommended replacement intervals. If the car isused in a severely contaminated environment, itmay be necessary to replace the filter more often.
NOTE
There are different types of passenger com- partment filter. Make sure that the correct fil-ter is fitted.

Clean Zone Interior Package
*
Clean Zone Interior Package (CZIP) comprises a series of modifications that keep the passen-ger compartment even clearer from allergy andasthma-inducing substances.
The following is included:
• An enhanced fan function that means that the fan starts when the car is unlocked withthe remote control key. The fan fills the pas-senger compartment with fresh air. The func-tion starts when required and is disengagedautomatically after a time or when one of thepassenger compartment doors is opened.The amount of time the fan runs is reducedgradually due to reduced need up until thecar is 4 years old.
• The fully automatic air quality system InteriorAir Quality System (IAQS).

Interior Air Quality System *
Interior Air Quality System (IAQS) is a fully auto- matic air quality system that separates gasesand particles to reduce the levels of odours andcontaminants in the passenger compartment.
IAQS is a part of the Clean Zone Interior Package (CZIP) and cleans the air in the passen-ger compartment from contaminants such as par-ticles, hydrocarbons, nitrous oxides and ground-level ozone. If the air quality sensor senses that the outside air is contaminated, the air intake is closed andair recirculation is activated.
NOTE
The air quality sensor must always be enabled to ensure the best air in the passenger com-partment. In a cold climate recirculation is limited so as to prevent misting. In the event of misting, the defrost functions for windscreen, side windows and rear win-dow should be used.
Activating/deactivating the air quality sensor
It is possible to set whether the air quality sensor should be activated/deactivated.
