Climate control system - general information
Condensation on the inside of the windows
Keeping the insides of the windows clean will help reduce the amount
of condensation that forms on the windows. Use a commercial window
cleaning agent to clean the windows.

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).

Climate control maintenance
Special tools and equipment are required to maintain and carry out
repairs on the climate system. Work of this type should only be done by
a trained and qualified Volvo service technician.

AUTO
This function automatically regulates the
Electronic Climate Control system so that the
selected temperatures are maintained. The
blower, heating, air distribution (air flow) and
air conditioning are controlled. If you prefer to
manually set any of these functions, the remaining functions will still be
controlled automatically. Pressing the AUTO button overrides any
settings that were previously made manually.
Temperature
These controls are used to individually set the
temperature for both sides of the passenger
compartment. Please note that the compartment
will not be heated or cooled faster by setting the
temperature higher or lower than necessary.
Set the control to the temperature you prefer.Defroster
This function demists/de-ices the windshield and
front side windows. The LED in the switch will
light up to indicate that the defrost function is
engaged. Blower speed increases automatically
and the air in the passenger compartment is
dehumidified. Recirculation will not function while defrost is engaged.
Heated rear window/sideview mirrors
This function demists/de-ices the rear window
and sideview mirrors. The LED in the switch
will light up to indicate that the heating function
is engaged. See page 40 for additional informa-
tion on this function.

Press AUTO to automatically regulate air flow or press any combina-
tion of the controls shown in the illustration to manually adjust air flow.
An LED in the switch will light up if an air flow control has been
pressed.
Air conditioning ON/OFF
Press the switch to turn the air conditioning on or
off. The “ON” or “OFF” LED will light up to
indicate if the system is switched on or off. Other
functions will still be regulated automatically (if the
AUTO switch is on).

Blower control
Turn the control clockwise to increase or counterclock-
wise to decrease the blower speed. Pressing the AUTO
switch will automatically regulate blower speed and
override manual adjustment.
NOTE: Turning the blower control counterclockwise as far as possible
(an orange LED next to the control will light up) will turn both the
blower and the air conditioning off.

WARNING!
•Driving with the tailgate open: Driving
with the tailgate open could mean that
poisonous exhaust gases enter the
passenger compartment.
If the tailgate must be kept open for any
reason, proceed as follows:
- Close the windows.
- Set the ventilation system to air flow to
floor, windshield and side windows and
blower control to its highest setting.
•Floor mats: An extra mat on the driver's
floor can cause the accelerator pedal to
catch. Check that the movement of the
accelerator pedal is not impeded. Not
more than one protective floor covering
may be used at one time.
Cooling system
The risk for engine overheating is greatest,
especially in hot weather, when:

•When the car is driven immediately after being washed, apply the
brakes several times in order to remove any moisture from the
brake linings.
•Engine cleaning agents should not be used when the engine is
warm. This constitutes a fire risk.

windows)–option
Cleaning water repellent glass
•Do not apply wax, degreasing agents, etc. to this glass. This could

CAUTION!
•Not checking the oil level regularly can
result in serious engine damage if the oil
level becomes too low.
•Oil that is lower than the specified quality
can damage the engine.
•Always add oil of the same type and
viscosity as already used.
•Never fill oil above the MAX mark. This
could cause an increase in oil consump-
tion.
R-models
R-models are equipped with an oil level
warning system. If the engine oil level
becomes too low, the warning light in the
instrument panel will come on and a warning
will be displayed in the text window.
