Auto-stopping the engineNormally, when Start/Stop is activated and the brakes are applied until the vehicle comesto a standstill, the engine will auto-stop auto-matically if the driver keeps the brake pedal
depressed .
To remind the driver that the enginehas been auto-stopped, theStart/Stop symbol will illuminate inthe instrument panel and remain on
until the engine restarts.
If the ECO function* (ECO* (p. 262)) is activated, theengine may auto-stop beforethe vehicle comes to a com-plete standstill.
Auto-starting the engineThe engine restarts as soon as the driver releases the brake pedal.
Deactivating Start/StopIn certain situations (e.g., driving in heavy, stop-and-gotraffic), it may be preferableto deactivate Start/Stop. This is done by pressing the button in the center console.
The indicator light in the button will go out. Start/Stop will remain deactivated until the button is pressed again or until the engine isswitched off and restarted by the driver.

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. 5 mph (8 km/h) after themost recent auto-start or after the driverhas started the engine.
The driver unbuckles his/her seat belt.
The main battery's charge is below the minimum level.
The engine has not reached its normal operating temperature.
The ambient temperature is below approx. 25°F (-4°C) or above approx. 85°F (30°C).
The windshield's heating function* is acti- vated.
The climate system cannot keep the desired settings in the passenger compart-ment; the blower will operate at highspeed.
The vehicle is backing up.
The main battery's temperature is below freezing or too high.

ECO*
Eco is a function 10
developed by Volvo to give
the driver the opportunity to actively drive more economically and to help reduce fuelconsumption.
IntroductionWhen Eco is activated, thefollowing functions are modi-fied:
• The automatic transmission's shifting points
• The engine management system andaccelerator pedal response
• Stop/stop function (Start/Stop – introduc-tion (p. 257)): the engine can auto-stopbefore the vehicle has come to a full stop
• Eco Coast functionality is activated:engine braking is disabled
• Climate system settings: certain functions(e.g., air conditioning) will be temporarilyreduced or deactivated
NOTE
When Eco is activated, several climate system parameters are changed and thefunction of certain current-consuming sys-tems will be reduced. Some of these functions can be restarted manually but full functionality will not berestored until Eco is deactivated.
Function
ECO On/Off button in the center console
ECO symbol in the instrument panel
When the engine is switched off, ECO is deactivated and must be reactivated eachtime the engine is started (with the exceptionof certain engines). The
ECO symbol will be displayed in the
instrument panel and the indicator light in the ECO button will be on when Eco is activated.
Eco on or offWhen ECO is deactivated, the ECO symbol will not be
displayed in the instrument panel and the indicator lightin the ECO button will be off.
The function will remaindeactivated until the buttonis pressed again.
Eco CoastEco Coast is an integral part of the Eco func- tion and essentially deactivates engine brak-ing, allowing the vehicle to roll freely.
NOTE
To function optimally, Eco Coast should primarily be used when the vehicle cancoast as far as possible.
When the driver releases the accelerator pedal, the transmission is automatically dis-engaged from the engine and engine rpm willbe reduced to the idle level(approx. 700-800 rpm), which helps reducefuel consumption.

* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.263
This feature is primarily intended to be used in driving situations where a decrease inspeed is expected, such as when approach-ing an intersection or a traffic light.
Eco Coast enables proactive driving with as little braking as possible.
Combinations of On and OffDepending on the driving situation, Eco can be used in different ways to help reduce fuelconsumption:
• With Eco activated
: this enables Eco
Coast, which allows the vehicle to roll
freely for as far as possible when the
driver releases the accelerator pedal (e.g., when approaching a traffic light or inter-section).
or
• With Eco deactivated
: engine braking
can be used when the vehicle will only
roll for a short distance (in heavy traffic,
etc.) or when driving down hills .
To help keep fuel consumption as low as possible, Eco Coast should not be used intraffic situations where the brakes have to beused frequently.
Activating Eco CoastEco Coast is activated when the accelerator pedal is released completely if:
• Eco is activated
• The gear selector is in
D •
The vehicle's speed is between approxi- mately 40–85 mph (65–140 km/h). Alwaysobserve posted speed limits
• The gradient of a down-slope is less thanapproximately 6%
Deactivating Eco CoastIn certain situations, it may be advisable to switch off the Eco Coast function, such as:
• When driving down steep hills, in order to utilize engine braking
• Prior to passing another vehicle, in orderto do so as safely as possible
Deactivating Eco Coast (and reactivating engine braking) can be done in the followingways:
• Press the
ECO button on the center con-
sole
• Move the gear selector to the manual "
S
+/– " position
• Change gears using the steering wheel paddles*
• Press the brake or accelerator pedal
Eco Coast limitationsThis function will not be available if:
• Cruise control is activated
• The gradient of a down-slope is morethan approximately 6%
• The steering wheel paddles* are used tomanually change gears •
The engine and/or transmission have notreached their normal operating tempera-ture
• The gear selector is moved from
D to the
manual " S+/–" position
• The vehicle's speed is not within the40–85 mph (65–140 km/h). interval
Additional information and settings
Other ECO-related settings can be made in the vehicle's
MY CAR menu. See My Car –
introduction (p. 76) for more information.

operation
Function
• HDC can be switched on and off with the button in the center console. An indicatorlight in the button illuminates when HDCis activated.
• The indicator light
in the instrument
panel illuminates and a message is dis- played when the system is controlling thevehicle's speed.
• HDC only functions when
first or reverse
gears are selected (
1 will be shown in the
instrument panel display when first gear is selected).
NOTE
HDC cannot be activated if the gear selec- tor is the D position.
Using HDCHDC allows the car to roll forward at a maxi- mum speed of 6 mph (10 km/h), and 4 mph(7 km/h) in reverse. However, the acceleratorpedal can be used to select any speed that ispossible in first or reverse gears. When theaccelerator pedal is released, speed isquickly reduced again to 6 mph (10 km/h) or4 mph (7 km/h), depending on the gearselected, regardless of the hill's gradient. It isnot necessary to apply the brakes.
• The brake lights illuminate automatically when HDC is controlling the vehicle'sspeed.
• The driver can slow or stop the vehicle atany time by applying the brakes.
HDC is deactivated when:
• The button on the center console ispressed
• A gear higher than first gear is selected
• D
is selected on vehicles with an auto-
matic transmission
HDC can be deactivated at any time. If this is done while driving down a steep hill, the sys-tem's braking effect will decrease gradually.
14 Available on the V60 Cross Country in combination with certain engines only.

Emergency Brake Assistance (EBA)
EBA is designed to provide full brake effect immediately in the event of sudden, hardbraking.
Emergency Brake AssistanceThe EBA system is activated by the speedwith which the brake pedal is depressed. When the EBA system is activated, the brake pedal will go down and pressure in the brakesystem immediately increases to the maxi-mum level. Maintain full pressure on thebrake pedal in order to utilize the systemcompletely. EBA is automatically deactivatedwhen the brake pedal is released.
NOTE
•When the EBA system is activated, the brake pedal will go down and pressurein the brake system immediatelyincreases to the maximum level. Youmust maintain full pressure on thebrake pedal in order to utilize the sys-tem completely. There will be no brak-ing effect if the pedal is released. EBAis automatically deactivated when thebrake pedal is released.
• When the vehicle has been parked forsome time, the brake pedal may sinkmore than usual when the engine isstarted. This is normal and the pedalwill return to its usual position when itis released.
