WARNING!
The mirrors should always be adjusted prior to driving. Objects seen in \
the passenger's side wide-
angle sideview mirror are closer than they appear to be.
Remote central locking and sideview mirror memory-option
If you lock the vehicle and later unlock it with the same remote control and open the driver's door, the
sideview mirrors (and the driver's seat) will automatically move to th\
e position they were in when you
left the vehicle. This feature will work in the same way with all of the\
remote control transmitters (up to

u lock your vehicle with the key.
Water repellent glass-option on certain models

The side door windows can be treated with a water repellent coating. The\
symbol to the left indicates
these windows have this coating. The optional laminated side windows alw\
ays have this coating.
The coating improves vision by causing the water to run off quickly.
See
page 179 for information on cleaning this type of glass.
CAUTION!

s. Using a metal ice scraper
could damage the water repellent coating.

pg. 74 Climate
Climate control systems - 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.
Ice and snow
Always keep the air intake grille at the base of the windshield free of \
snow.
Cabin air filter
Replace the cabin air filter with a new one at the recommended intervals\
. Please refer to your Warranty and Service
Records Information booklet, or consult your Volvo retailer for these in\
tervals. The filter should be replaced more
often when driving under dirty and dusty conditions. The filter cannot b\
e cleaned and therefore should always be
replaced with a new one.
Sensors
The sunlight sensor on the dashboard and passenger compartment temperatu\
re sensor in the ECC control panel
should not be covered in any way as this could cause incorrect informati\
on to be sent to the ECC system.
Parking the vehicle in warm weather
If your vehicle 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 se\
veral 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 moonroof a\
re 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).
