Introduction
Air conditioningThe vehicle is equipped with Electronic Cli- mate Control (ECC). The climate control sys-tem cools, heats or dehumidifies the air in thepassenger compartment.
NOTE
• The air conditioning can be switched off, but to ensure the best possible cli-mate comfort in the passenger com-partment and to prevent the windowsfrom misting, it should always be on.
• In warm weather, a small amount ofwater may accumulate under the carwhen it has been parked. This water iscondensation from the A/C systemand is normal.
Sensor location
•
The sunlight sensor is located on the top side of the dashboard.
NOTE
The sunlight sensor monitors which side of the car that is most exposed to sunlight.This can mean that the temperature maydiffer between the right and left-side airvents, even if the temperatures set for bothsides of the passenger compartment arethe same.
•The temperature sensor for the passen- ger compartment is located below the cli-mate control panel.
• The outside (ambient) temperature sensoris located on the door mirror.
• The humidity sensor* is located in theinterior rearview mirror.
NOTE
Do not cover or block the sensors with clothing or other objects.
Side windows and moonroofTo ensure that the air conditioning works optimally, the side windows, and the optionalmoonroof should be closed.
Fog on the inside of the windowsThe defroster function should be used toremove fog or mist from the inside of the win-dows. Keeping the windows clean with acommercially available window washing spray will also help prevent fogging or mist-ing.
Temporary shut-off of the air
conditioning
The air conditioning is momentarily disen-gaged during full acceleration or when drivinguphill with a trailer. This may result in a tem-porary increase in cabin temperature.
Ice and snowAlways keep the air intake grille at the base ofthe windshield free of snow.
Climate system maintenanceSpecial tools and equipment are required tomaintain and carry out repairs on the climatesystem. Work of this type should only bedone by a trained and qualified Volvo servicetechnician.
RefrigerantVolvo cares about the environment. The airconditioning system in your car contains aCFC-free refrigerant – R134a. This substancewill not deplete the ozone layer. See page389 for the amount of refrigerant in the A/Csystem. The system uses PAG oil.
Passenger compartment filterReplace the cabin air filter with a new one atthe recommended intervals. Please refer to

front side windows. The indicator light (2) in the defroster button illuminates whenthe function is active.
• Press the button twice to switch off thedefroster (the indicator light will switchoff).
Models with an electrically heated wind-
shield*
• If this feature is switched off, press thebutton once to start heating the wind- shield 3
. Symbol (1) will illuminate in the
center console display.
• Press the button twice to start both the defroster and the windshield heating.Symbols (1) and (2) will illuminate in thecenter console display.
• If these features are on, press the buttonto switch them off. The symbols will nolonger be displayed.NOTE
•Triangular areas at the far sides of the windshield are not heated electricallyand will take slightly longer todefrost/de-ice.
• The heated windshield may affect theperformance/range of e.g., transpond-ers used to automatically pay highwaytolls or other communication equip-ment.
The following occurs when the defroster/ windshield heating functions have been acti-vated: •
Blower speed increases automatically and the air conditioning will switch on (ifnot already on and if the passenger com-partment blower is not turned off) todehumidify the air in the passenger com-partment. Air conditioning can beswitched off by pressing the
AC button.
• Recirculation will not function whiledefrost is engaged.
The climate system will return to its previous settings when the defroster/windshield heat-ing function is switched off. See also page 113 for additional information.
Recirculation/air quality system
RecirculationThis function can be used to shut out exhaust fumes,smoke, etc., from the pas-senger compartment. The airin the passenger compart-ment is then recirculated,i.e., no air from outside the
car is taken into the car when this function isactivated. The indicator light in the button willilluminate when recirculation is selected. If the air in the car recirculates for too long, there is a risk of condensation forming on theinsides of the windows, especially in winter.
TimerThe timer function minimizes the risk of fog- ging, or stale air when the recirculation func-tion is selected by automatically switching offthe function after a certain length of time,depending on the ambient temperature. Acti-vate/deactivate the function under
Climate
settings
Recirculation timer. See page
209 for a description of the menu system.
NOTE
When Defroster is selected, recirculation is always deactivated.
3 If a "C" appears in the rear-view mirror when the button is pressed, the compass* has to be recalibrated, see page 115.
