HomeLink ®
Wireless Control System*
– introduction
HomeLink® can be used to open garage
doors, gates, etc.
WARNING
• If you use HomeLink ®
to open a
garage door or gate, be sure no one is near the gate or door while it is inmotion.
• When programming a garage dooropener, it is advised to park outside ofthe garage.
• Do not use HomeLink ®
with any
garage door opener that lacks safetystop and reverse features as requiredby U.S. federal safety standards (thisincludes any garage door openermodel manufactured before April 1,1982). A garage door that cannotdetect an object - signaling the door tostop and reverse - does not meet cur-rent U.S. federal safety standards. Formore information, contact HomeLinkat: www.homelink.com.
The HomeLink ®

Wireless Control System
provides a convenient way to replace up to three hand-held radio-frequency (RF) trans-mitters used to activate devices such as gateoperators, garage door openers, entry doorlocks, security systems, even home lighting.Additional information can be found on theInternet at, www.homelink.com/www.youtube.com/HomeLinkGentex or byphoning the hotline at 1–800–355–3515.

Wireless Control System* – pro-
gramming (p. 109).
Using HomeLinkTo operate, simply press and hold the pro- grammed HomeLink button until the traineddevice begins to operate (this may take sev-eral seconds). Activation will now occur forthe trained device (i.e., garage door opener,gate operator, security system, entry doorlock, home/office lighting, etc.). For conven-ience, the hand-held transmitter of the devicemay also be used at any time. In the eventthat there are still programming difficulties orquestions, contact HomeLink at:www.homelink.com/www.youtube.com/HomeLinkGentex or by phoning the hotline at1–800–355–3515.

The HomeLink Wireless Control System pro- vides a convenient way to replace up to threehand-held radio-frequency (RF) transmittersused to activate devices such as gate opera-tors, garage door openers, entry door locks,security systems, even home lighting. Addi-tional information can be found on the Inter-net atwww.homelink.com/www.youtube.com/HomeLinkGentex or by phoning the hotline at1–800–355–3515.
NOTE
Some vehicles may require the ignition to be switched on or be in the “accessories”position for programming and/or operationof HomeLink. It is also recommended thata new battery be placed in the hand-heldtransmitter of the device being pro-grammed to HomeLink for quicker trainingand accurate transmission of the radio-fre-quency signal. The HomeLink buttonsmust be reset first. When this has beencompleted, Homelink is in learning modeso that you can perform programming.
1. Position the end of your hand-held trans- mitter 1–3 inches (5–14 cm) away from the HomeLink button you wish to pro-gram while keeping the indicator light inview. 2. Simultaneously press and hold both the
chosen HomeLink and hand-held trans-mitter buttons until the HomeLink indica-tor light changes from a slow to a rapidlyblinking light. Now you may release boththe HomeLink and hand-held transmitterbuttons.
NOTE
Some devices may require you to replace this Programming Step 2 with proceduresnoted in the “Gate Operator / CanadianProgramming” section. If the HomeLinkindicator light does not change to a rapidlyblinking light after performing these steps,contact HomeLink at www.homelink.com/www.youtube.com/HomeLinkGentex or byphoning the hotline at 1–800–355–3515.

Loading – general
The load carrying capacity of your vehicle is determined by factors such as the number ofpassengers, the amount of cargo, the weightof any accessories that may be installed, etc. To increase loading space, the rear seat backrests can be folded down, see Rearseats – folding backrest (p. 86). When loading the cargo area, keep the fol- lowing in mind:
• Load objects in the cargo area against the backrest whenever possible.
• Unstable loads can be secured to theload anchoring eyelets with straps or weblashings to help keep them from shifting.
• Stop the engine and apply the parkingbrake when loading or unloading longobjects. The gear selector can beknocked out of position by long loads,which could set the vehicle in motion.WARNING
•Stop the engine, put the gear selector in
P, and apply the parking brake
when loading or unloading longobjects.
• The vehicle's driving characteristicsmay change depending on the weightand distribution of the load.
• A 44-pound (20 kg) object produces aforce of 2,200 pounds (1,000 kg) in ahead-on collision at 30 mph (50 km/h).
• The cargo area and rear seat shouldnot be loaded to a level higher than2 in. (5 cm) below the upper edge ofthe rear side windows. Objects placedhigher than this level could impede thefunction of the Inflatable Curtain.

Loading – roof load carriers
Using load carriersLoad carriers are available as Volvo accesso- ries. Observe the following points when inuse:
• To avoid damaging your vehicle and to achieve maximum safety when driving,we recommend using the load carriersthat Volvo has developed especially foryour vehicle.
• Volvo-approved removable roof racks aredesigned to carry the maximum allowableroof load for this vehicle: 220 lbs (100 kg).For non-Volvo roof racks, check the man-ufacturer's weight limits for the rack.
• Never exceed the rack manufacturer'sweigh limits and never exceed the maxi-mum rated roof load of 220 lbs (100 kg).
• Avoid single-point loads. Distribute loadsevenly.
• Place heavier cargo at the bottom of theload.
• Secure the cargo correctly with appropri-ate tie-down equipment.
• Check periodically that the load carriersand load are properly secured.
• Remember that the vehicle's center ofgravity and handling change when youcarry a load on the roof.

Radar sensor
The radar sensor is designed to help detect cars or larger vehicles driving in the samedirection as your vehicle, in the same lane.
The radar sensor and its limitationsIn addition to being used by the AdaptiveCruise Control (ACC), the radar sensor is alsoused by Distance Alert (see Distance Alert –introduction (p. 198)) and Collision Warningwith Full Auto-brake and Pedestrian Detec-tion (see Collision warning – introduction(p. 209)).
WARNING
•If there is visible damage to the front grille or you suspect that the radarsensor may be damaged in any way,contact a trained and qualified Volvoservice technician as soon as possible.The radar sensor may only functionpartially (or not at all) if it is damagedor is not securely fastened in place.
• Accessories or other objects, such asextra headlights, must not be installedin front of the grille.
• Modification of the radar sensor couldmake its use illegal.
The radar sensor's capacity to detect vehi- cles ahead is impeded:
• if the radar sensor is obstructed and can- not detect other vehicles, for example in heavy rain, or if snow or other objects areobscuring the radar sensor.
NOTE
Keep the area in front of the radar sensor clean.
•
if the speed of vehicles ahead is signifi- cantly different from your own speed.

Adaptive Cruise Control – limitations
The ACC cannot cover all driving situations and traffic, weather and road conditions.
Situations where ACC may not function optimally
WARNING
• The radar sensor has a limited field of vision. In some situations it may detecta vehicle later than expected or notdetect other vehicles at all.
• If ACC is not functioning properly,cruise control will also be disabled.
