Audio volume and automatic volume
control
The infotainment system compensates for dis-

by increasing the volume according to the
speed of the vehicle. The level of sound com-
pensation can be set at low, medium, high or
off. Select the level under Audio settings
Volume compensation.
External audio source volumeIf an external device such as an MP3 player or
an iPod Ÿ is connected to the AUX socket, the
device's volume may be different than the vol-
ume of the internal sound sources such as the
disc player or the radio. If the external sound
source's volume is too high, the quality of the
sound may be impaired. To help prevent this,adjust the input volume of the external audio
source:
NOTE
Sound quality may be affected if the MP3
player is being charged while the system is
in AUX mode. To help prevent this, avoid
charging the MP3 player in a 12-volt socket
while it is being played.

Connecting external devices
Sockets for auxiliary devices in the storage com-
partment between the front seats
An auxiliary device, such as an iPodŸ or MP3
player can be connected to the infotainment
system via one of the sockets in the center
console storage compartment. A device con-
nected to the USB socket can be operated
using the vehicle's infotainment system con-
trols.
There is a notch at the right rear of the center
console for routing wires to external devices.
This notch helps prevent the wires from being
pinched when the cover is closed.
An iPod
Ÿ or an MP3 player with rechargeable
batteries will also be charged if the device isconnected to the USB socket (if the vehicle's
ignition is on or if the engine is running).
To connect a device:
1.
Press MEDIA and turn TUNE to select the
desired source (
iPod, USB or AUX). Press
OK/MENU.
> For example, if a USB device has been
selected, the text
Connect USB will be
displayed.
2. Connect the device to one of the sockets
in the center console storage compartment
(see the illustration).
The text
Reading USB will be displayed while
the system reads the device's folders. This may
take a short time, depending on the folder
structure and the number of files.
When this information has been loaded, track
information will be displayed and a track can
be selected.
NOTE
•The system supports a number of
iPodŸ models produced in 2005 or later.
•In order to help avoid damage to the
USB socket, it will be switched off if
there is a short circuit or if the con-
nected device uses too much current
(which can happen if the device does
not comply with the USB standard). The
USB socket will reactivate the next time
the ignition is switched on if the problem
no longer exists. If the problem persists,
contact a trained and authorized Volvo
service technician.
Media menu selections can be made from the
center console or the steering wheel keypad,
see page 216 for more information.
Navigating and playing tracks1
Turn TUNE to access the device's playlist and
to navigate in this list. Press OK/MENU to
either select a sub-folder or confirm a choice
and begin playback. Press EXIT to cancel and

The / buttons on the center console or
steering wheel keypad can also be used to
change tracks/files.
The following symbols are used in the display:
•- audio files
•- video files
•- folders
When a file has been played, the player will
continue to play the rest of the files (of the same
type) in the current folder. When all of the files
in the folder have been played, the player will
automatically go to the next folder
1 (unlessRepeat folder is activated) and play the files
in it.
The system automatically detects and changes
settings if a device containing only audio or
only video files is connected to the USB socket
and will play these files. However, the system
will not change settings if the device contains
both audio and video files and will continue to
play the current type of file.

access the folders) or by pressing one of the
character keys to enter a letter/number. Pos-
sible search results will be displayed as char-
acters are entered.
Play the file by pressing OK/MENU.
Repeat2
This function makes it possible to play files in
a folder repeatedly. When the last file has been
played, the first file will begin again. For infor-
mation, see page 236.
PauseWhen the infotainment system volume is
turned off completely or the sound is muted,
the player will pause. It will resume playing
when the volume is turned up again or if the
sound is unmuted. Pause is also available via
the menu system, select
Play/Pause.
External sound sources
USB flash drive
To simplify the use of a USB flash drive, it is
advisable to only store music files on the drive.
It will take considerably longer for the system
to index the files on the drive if it contains any-
thing other than compatible music files.
NOTE
•The system supports removable media
that uses the USB 2.0 standard and the
FAT32 file system. It can index up to
1,000 folders and a maximum of 254
sub-folders/files for each folder. How-
ever, the highest folder level can sup-
port up to 1,000 sub-folders/files.
•When using a longer type of USB
device, connecting it with a USB
adapter cable will help reduce mechan-
ical wear on the USB socket and on the
device.
USB hubA USB hub can be connected to the USB
socket, making it possible to connect several
USB devices at the same time. To select one

Introduction
The RSE system1 provides entertainment for
the rear seat passengers by making it possible
to e.g., watch a film, play music, listen to the
radio or connect an external device such as a
game console.
RSE is fully integrated into the vehicle's info-
tainment system and can be used at the same
time as other infotainment features.
For example, if a rear seat passenger is using
A/V-AUX and headphones, the driver and front
seat passenger can still use the vehicle's radioor media player. However, only one disc can be
played in the media player at a time. You can
listen to music from e.g., an iPodŸ or from
streaming audio files using the BluetoothŸ
function.
The RSE system can be controlled from the
front screen (parental control).
Different media can be played or viewed from
different sources on the various screens (front
center console and/or the respective screens
in the rear seat). It is also possible to play or
view media from the same source on one or
