Parking the car in warm weather
If your car has been parked in the sun in warm weather, opening the
windows and moonroof (option) for several minutes before driving will
help release the warm air from the passenger compartment. When the
engine is running, close the windows and moonroof and use the
recirculation function for several minutes to enable the air conditioning
to cool the compartment as quickly as possible.
Windows and optional moonroof
The ECC system will function best if the windows and optional moon-
roof are closed. If you drive with the moonroof open, we recommend
that you manually adjust the temperature and blower control (the LED in
the AUTO switch should be off).

repairs on the climate system. Work of this type should only be done by
a trained and qualified Volvo service technician.

Keys
Two types of keys are provided with your car;
master keys and a service key. The master key,
the remote control, and the central locking
button may all be used to lock and unlock all
of your car’s locks.
The service key operates the driver’s door and
the ignition switch. It will also fit the tailgate
lock cylinder on models outfitted with a
factory installed third seat. The service key is
intended to help deter unwanted entry into the
glove compartment. $
? 


Turn the key again (within 10 seconds) to
unlock all doors and the tailgate.
One turn with the key towards lock in the
drivers door locks all doors and tailgate.

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.
8302499m
Each key has a unique code, which your Volvo
retailer uses if new keys are required. A
maximum of six remote controls/keys can be
programmed and used for one car.
If you misplace a key, take the other keys to an
authorized Volvo retailer for reprogramming as
an antitheft measure.
This device complies with part 15 of the
FCC rules. Operation is subject to the
following condition: (1) This device may not
cause harmful interference, and (2) this
device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.

Fuel requirements
Fuel requirements
Octane rating: Volvo engines are designed for optimum performance
on unleaded premium gasoline with an octane rating AKI of 91, or
above. AKI (ANTI KNOCK INDEX) is an average of the Research
Octane Number, RON, and the Motor Octane Number, MON. (RON +
MON/2). The minimum octane requirement is AKI 87 (RON 91).

NOTE: Some U.S. and Canadian gasolines contain an octane enhancing
additive called methyl-cyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl (MMT).
If such fuels are used, your Emission Control System performance may
be affected, and the Check Engine light (malfunction indicator lamp)
located on your instrument panel may light. If this occurs, please return
your vehicle to an authorized Volvo retailer for service.Gasoline containing alcohol and ethers

Do not use gasolines containing methanol (methyl alcohol, wood
alcohol). This practice can result in vehicle performance deteriora-
tion and can damage critical parts in the fuel system. Such damage
may not be covered under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.

Maintenance services
Your Volvo passed several major inspections before it was delivered to
you, in accordance with Volvo specifications. The maintenance services
outlined in the Warranty and Service Records Information booklet,
many of which will positively affect your vehicle’s emissions, should be
performed as indicated. It is recommended that receipts for vehicle
emission services be retained in case questions arise concerning
maintenance.
Inspection and service should also be performed anytime a malfunction
is observed or suspected.

Accessory Installation – Important Warning
•We strongly recommend that Volvo owners install only genuine,
Volvo-approved accessories, and that accessory installations be
performed only by the factory-trained technicians at your authorized
Volvo retailer.
•Genuine Volvo accessories are tested to ensure compatibility with the
performance, safety, and emission systems in your car. Additionally,
your authorized Volvo retailer knows where accessories may and may
not be safely installed in your Volvo. In all cases, please consult your
authorized Volvo retailer before installing any accessory in or on your
car.
•Accessories that have not been approved by Volvo may or may not be
specifically tested for compatibility with your car. Additionally, an
inexperienced installer may not be familiar with some of your car’s
systems.
•Any of your car’s performance and safety systems could be adversely
affected if you install accessories that Volvo has not tested, or if you
allow accessories to be installed by someone unfamiliar with your car.
•Damage caused by unapproved or improperly installed accessories
may not be covered by your new car warranty. See your Warranty
and Service Records Information booklet for more warranty informa-
tion. Volvo assumes no responsibility for death, injury, or expenses
that may result from the installation of non-genuine accessories.
Driver Distraction
•Driver distraction results from driver activities that are not directly
related to controlling the car in the driving environment. Your new
Volvo is, or can be, equipped with many feature-rich entertainment
and communication systems. These include hands-free cellular
telephones, navigation systems, and multipurpose audio systems.
You may also own other portable electronic devices for your own
convenience. When used properly and safely, they enrich the driving
experience. Improperly used, any of these could cause a distraction.
•For all of these systems, we want to provide the following warning
that reflects the strong Volvo concern for your safety:
•Never use these devices or any feature of your vehicle in a way that
distracts you from the task of driving safely. Distraction can lead to a
serious accident.
•In addition to this general warning, we offer the following guidance
regarding specific newer features that may be found in your vehicle:
•Never use a hand-held cellular telephone while driving. Some
jurisdictions prohibit cellular telephone use by a driver while the
vehicle is moving.
•If your car is equipped with a navigation system, set and make
changes to your travel itinerary only with the vehicle parked.
•Never program your audio system while the vehicle is moving.
Program radio presets with the vehicle parked, and use your pro-
grammed presets to make radio use quicker and simpler.
•Never use portable computers or personal digital assistants while the
vehicle is moving.
A driver has a responsibility to do everything possible to ensure his or\
her own safety and the safety of passengers in the vehicle and others
sharing the roadway. Avoiding distractions is part of that responsibility.
