Important information on accessories, extra equipment anddiagnostic socket Incorrect connection and installation of accesso- ries, extra equipment or software/diagnostictools may have a negative effect on the car'selectronic system.
Certain accessories only function when associ- ated software is installed in the car's computersystem. Volvo therefore recommends alwaysmaking contact with an authorised Volvo work-shop before the installation of accessories orextra equipment that are connected to or affectthe electrical system.
Connection of equipment to the car's
diagnostic socket
WARNING
Volvo Cars accepts no responsibility for the consequences of cases where non-authorisedequipment is connected to the car's data linkconnector (On-Board-Diagnostics (OBD-II)).
The diagnostic socket is located under the instrument panel and on the same side as the steering wheel.

IntelliSafe-driver support
IntelliSafe is the Volvo Cars concept concerning car safety. It comprises a number of systemsthat contribute to making a car journey safe, tothe prevention of injuries and to the protection ofpassengers from other road users.
SupportThere are systems incorporated in IntelliSafe that help the driver to drive the car in a safe manner.The driver support functions incorporated in thecar include e.g. the adaptive cruise control (Adaptive Cruise Control) * that ensures that a
constant distance is held between the car and the vehicle in front. Pilot Assist * helps the driver to keep the car
between the lane's edge markings, combined with maintaining a preset time interval to thevehicle ahead. Park Assist Pilot * helps the driver park the car by
sensing the area around it. Other examples of systems that help the driver are the Active main beam, Cross Traffic Alert (CTA) * and Blind Spot Information (BLIS) * sys-
tems.
PreventionAn example of a function that helps to prevent accidents is City Safety. The function warns thedriver of risks of collision with another vehicle,pedestrians, cyclists or larger animals. If the driver does not react to the warning and the risk of col-lision is imminent then City Safety can automati-cally brake the car. Lane Keeping Aid (LKA)
* is another example of a
function that helps to prevent accidents by warn- ing the driver and giving corrective steering inter-ventions if the car is about to cross a lane sideline. Also available is the run-off mitigation function (Run off mitigation), whose purpose is to reducethe risk of the car unintentionally leaving theroad, and it actively steers the car back onto theroad.
ProtectionTo protect the driver and passengers, the car isequipped with seatbelt tensioners which can ten-sion the seatbelts in critical situations and in col-lisions. It also has airbags and inflatable curtains,as well as Whiplash Protection System (WHIPS)which protects against whiplash injuries. A Pedestrian Protection System (PPS) is also available for mitigating a pedestrian's impact withthe car in the event of a frontal collision.

Different types of information are shown in different displays depending on how the information should be prioritised.
Head-up display *
The head-up display shows selected information that the driver should deal with as soon as possi-ble. Such information includes traffic warnings, speed information and navigation
* information.
Road Sign Information and incoming phone callsare also shown in the head-up display. The dis-play is operated via the right-hand steering wheelkeypad and via the centre display.
Driver display

INTRODUCTION
* Option/accessory.31
8-inch driver display.
The driver display shows information on speed and e.g. incoming calls or song tracks beingplayed. The display is operated via the two steer-ing wheel keypads.
Centre display
Many of the main functions of the car are con- trolled from the centre display, a touch screenwhich reacts to touch. The number of physicalbuttons and controls in the car is therefore mini-mal. The screen can even be operated whilewearing gloves. The climate control system, the entertainment system and seat position are controlled fromhere, for example. The information that is shownin the centre display can be acted on by thedriver or someone else in the car when theopportunity arises.
Voice recognition system
The voice recognition system can be used without the driverneeding to take his/her handsoff the steering wheel. The sys-tem can understand naturalspeech. Use voice recognitionto play back a song, call some-
one, increase the temperature or read out a textmessage.
For more information about all functions/ systems, see the relevant section in the owner'smanual or its supplement.

Safety
The vehicle is equipped with several safety sys- tems that work together to protect the vehicle'sdriver and passengers in the event of an acci-dent.
The car is equipped with a number of sensors that react in the event of an accident and activatedifferent safety systems, such as different typesof airbags and seatbelt tensioners. Depending onthe specific accident situation, such as collisionsat different angles, rollover or driving off the road,the systems react in different ways to provide thebest protection. There are also mechanical safety systems such as Whiplash Protection System. The car is alsoconstructed so that a large part of the force of acollision is distributed to beams, pillars, floor, roofand other parts of the body. The car's safety mode may be activated after a collision if an important function in the car hasbeen damaged.
Warning symbol in driver displayThe warning symbol is illuminated inthe driver display when the car's elec-trical system is set in ignition position II . The symbol is extinguished after
approx. 6 seconds if the car's safety system is fault-free.
WARNING
If the warning symbol remains illuminated or is switched on during driving and the mes- sage
SRS airbag Service urgent Drive to
workshop is shown in the driver display, it
means that part of one of the safety systems does not have full functionality. Volvo recom-mends that an authorised Volvo workshopshould be contacted as soon as possible.
If the specific warning symbol is broken then the general warning symbol is illu-minated instead and the driver displayshows the same message.

Safety during pregnancy It is important that the seatbelt is used correctly during pregnancy, and that pregnant driversadjust their seating position.
Seatbelt
The diagonal section should wrap over the shoul- der then be routed between the breasts and tothe side of the abdomen. The lap section should lay flat over the thighs and as low as possible under the abdomen. – It mustnever be allowed to ride upward. Remove theslack from the seatbelt and ensure that it fits asclose to the body as possible. In addition, checkthat there are no twists in the seatbelt.
Seating positionAs the pregnancy progresses, pregnant driversmust adjust the seat and steering wheel suchthat they can easily maintain control of the vehi-

Whiplash Protection System Whiplash Protection System (WHIPS) is a pro- tection against whiplash injuries. The systemconsists of energy-absorbing backrests and seatcushions, and specially designed head restraintsin the front seats.
WHIPS is deployed in the event of a rear-end collision, where the angle and speed of the colli-sion and the nature of the colliding vehicle allhave an influence. When WHIPS is deployed, the front seat back- rests are lowered backward and the seat cush-ions move downward to change the seating posi-tion of the driver and front seat passenger. Thisreduces the risk of whiplash injury.
WARNING
WHIPS is a supplement to the seatbelts. Always use a seatbelt.
WARNING
Never modify or repair the seat or WHIPS yourself. Volvo recommends that an author-ised Volvo workshop should be contacted. If the front seats have been subjected to a major load, such as in conjunction with a colli-sion, the seats must be replaced. Some of theseats' protective properties may have beenlost even if they do not appear damaged.
Do not leave any objects on the floor behind or under the front seats or in the rear seat that may preventWHIPS from functioning.
WARNING
Do not squeeze rigid objects between the rear seat cushion and the front seat's back-rest.
WARNING
If a rear seat backrest is folded down, the cor- responding front seat must be moved forwardso that it does not make contact with thefolded backrest.
Seating positionFor optimum protection from WHIPS the driver and passenger must have the correct seatingposition and make sure that the system's func-tion is not obstructed.
