Remote key memory and the power
driver's seat* and door mirrors2
Each remote key has a feature that enables it
to store (remember) the position of the power
driver's seat and door mirrors when the vehicle
is locked with that remote key.
This feature has to be activated for each of the
remote keys used in the vehicle as follows:
1. Insert a remote key in the ignition slot.2.
Go into the MY CAR menu and go to
Settings
Car settingsCar key
memory
3. To activate the remote key memory fea-
ture, press ENTER (check the box).
> The remote key is now ready to store the
position of the power driver's seat and
door mirrors.
Repeat this procedure for each of the vehicle's
remote keys.
See page 189 for a description of the menu
system.
Storing the positions of the power
driver's seat/mirrors in the remote key
1. Move the seat and door mirrors to the
desired position using the seat and mirror
adjustment controls.
2. Exit the vehicle and lock the doors with the
remote key (or close the driver's door and
press the lock button on the door handle
with the remote key in your possession on
vehicles with the optional keyless drive).
> The positions of the power driver's seat
and door mirrors are now stored in the
remote key's memory.
NOTE
The remote key's memory feature and the
power driver's seat memory function (the
settings made using the buttons on the side
of the seat, see the section "Power seat
memory function" on page 85) work inde-
pendently of each other.
Returning the seat/mirrors to the stored
positions
To move the seat and door mirrors to the posi-
tion stored in the remote key:
1.
Unlock the driver's door with the same
remote key (the one used to lock the
doors). For models equipped with the
optional keyless drive, you must have the
same remote key in your possession.
2. Open the driver's door within 2 minutes.
The driver's seat and door mirrors will auto-
matically move to the position in which you left
them (if the vehicle has been unlocked with one
of the other keys and new seat/mirror adjust-
ments have been made).
2This information also applies to vehicles with the optional keyless drive.

Rearview mirror with compass.
The rearview mirror has an integrated display
that shows the compass direction in which the
vehicle is pointing. Eight different directions are
shown with the abbreviations:
N (north), NE(north east), E (east), SE (southeast), S (south),SW (southwest), W (west) and NW (northwest).
The compass is displayed automatically when
the vehicle is started or in ignition mode II. To
switch the compass on/off use a pen or similar
object and press in the button on the rear side
of the mirror.
CalibrationThe compass will need to be calibrated if the
vehicle is driven into a new magnetic zone (see
the magnetic zones on the map at the end of
this section). To do so:1. Stop the vehicle in a large open area, safely
out of traffic and away from steel structures
and high-tension electrical wires.
2. Start the vehicle.
NOTE
For best results from calibration, switch off
all electrical equipment in the vehicle (cli-
mate system, windshield wipers, audio sys-
tem, etc.) and make sure that all doors are
closed.
3. Using a pen or similar object, press and
hold the button on the rear side of mirror
until
C is shown again in the mirror (after
approx. 6 seconds).
4.
Drive as usual.
C disappears from the dis-
play when calibration is complete.
Alternative calibration method:
Drive slowly in a circle at a speed of no
more than 5 mph (8 km/h) until
C disap-
pears from the display when calibration is
complete.

Blind Spot Information System*

Introduction

BLIS camera
Indicator light
BLIS symbol
The Blind Spot Information System (BLIS) is an
information system that indicates the presence
of another vehicle moving in the same direction
as your vehicle in the side-view mirror's "blind
area."
CAUTION
The BLIS system should only be repaired by
a trained and qualified Volvo service tech-
nician.
WARNING
•BLIS is an information system, NOT a
warning or safety system.
•BLIS does not eliminate the need for
you to visually confirm the conditions
around you, and the need for you to turn
your head and shoulders to make sure
that you can safely change lanes.
•As the driver, you have full responsibility
for changing lanes in a safe manner.
The system is based on digital camera tech-
nology. The cameras are located beneath the
side-view mirrors.
When one (or both) of the cameras have
detected a vehicle in the blind area (up to
approximately 10 ft. (3 meters) from the side of
your vehicle, and up to approximately 31 ft.
(9.5 meters) behind the side-view mirror), see
the illustration, the indicator light in the door
panel illuminates. The light will glow continu-
ously to alert the driver of the vehicle in the
blind area.
NOTE
The door panel indicator light illuminates on
the side of the vehicle where the system has
detected another vehicle. If your vehicle is
passed on both sides at the same time, both
lights will illuminate.
BLIS has an integrated function that alerts the
driver if a fault should occur with the system.
For example, if one or both of the system's
cameras are obscured, a message (see the
table on page 182) will appear in the informa-
tion display in the instrument panel. If this
occurs, clean the camera lenses. If necessary,
the system can be temporarily switched off (for
instructions, see page 182).
Areas monitored by BLIS Distance A = approx.
31 ft. (9.5 meters), Distance B = approx. 10 ft.
