Crash event data
This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDRis to record, in certain crash or near crash-likesituations, such as an air bag deployment orhitting a road obstacle, data that will assist inunderstanding how a vehicle's systems per-formed. The EDR is designed to record datarelated to vehicle dynamics and safety sys-tems for a short period of time, typically 30seconds or less. The EDR in this vehicle isdesigned to record such data as:
• How various systems in your vehicle were operating;
• Whether or not the driver and passengersafety belts were buckled/fastened;
• How far (if at all) the driver was depress-ing the accelerator and/or brake pedal;and,
• How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better under- standing of the circumstances in whichcrashes and injuries occur.NOTE
EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs;no data are recorded by the EDR undernormal driving conditions and no personaldata (e.g., name, gender, age, and crashlocation) are recorded. However, otherparties, such as law enforcement, couldcombine the EDR data with the type ofpersonally identifying data routinelyacquired during a crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to thevehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition tothe vehicle manufacturer, other parties, suchas law enforcement, that have the specialequipment, can read the information if theyhave access to the vehicle or the EDR. Furthermore, your vehicle is equipped with a number of computers whose task is to con-tinuously control and monitor the vehicle’soperation. They can also register informationduring normal driving conditions if they detecta fault relating to the vehicle’s operation andfunctionality. Some of the stored informationis required by technicians when carrying outservice and maintenance to enable them todiagnose and rectify any faults that haveoccurred in the vehicle and to enable Volvo tofulfill legal and other regulatory requirements.This information may be stored in the vehi-cle’s computers for a certain period of time.

for a description of the menu system.
Interior rearview mirror
The interior rearview mirror has an auto-dim function that helps reduce glare from follow-ing vehicle's headlights.
Auto-dim functionThe interior rearview mirror’s auto-dim func-tion is controlled by two sensors: one point-ing forward (located on the forward-facingside of the mirror, which monitors the amountof ambient light) and one pointing rearward(located on the side of the mirror facing thedriver at the upper edge, which senses thestrength of following vehicles' headlights),and work together to help eliminate glare.
NOTE
Obstructing the forward sensor with e.g., parking stickers, transponders, etc., or therear sensor by loading the cargo area orthe rear seat in such a way that light isprevented from reaching the sensor willreduce the auto-dim function in the rear-view mirror.

Digital compass*
The rear-view mirror has an integrated display that shows the compass direction in whichthe vehicle is traveling.
Operation
G029737
Rearview mirror with compass.
Eight different directions are shown with the abbreviations:
N (north), NE (north east), E(east), SE (southeast), S (south), SW (south-
west), 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, paper-clip or similar object and press in the buttonon the rear side of the mirror.
CalibrationNorth America is divided into 15 magneticzones and the compass will need to be cali-brated if the vehicle is driven into a new one (see the magnetic zones on the map in thefollowing section "Selecting a magneticzone"). To do so:
1. Stop the vehicle in a large open area,
safely out of traffic and away from steel structures and high-tension electricalwires.
2. Start the vehicle.
NOTE
• For best calibration results, switch off all electrical equipment in the vehicle(climate system, windshield wipers,audio system, etc.) and make sure thatall doors are closed.
• Calibration may not succeed or beincorrect if the vehicle's electricalequipment is not switched off.
3. Using a pen, paperclip or similar object,
press and hold the button on the rear side of mirror for approx. 6 seconds until
C is
displayed in the mirror.
4. Press and hold the button for 3 seconds until the number of the current magnetic zone is displayed.
5. Press the button repeatedly until the number of the desired magnetic zone (
1-15) is displayed. See the magnetic
zones on the map in the following section "Selecting a magnetic zone"). 6.
Wait until
C is again displayed in the mir-
ror.
7. Drive slowly in a circle at a speed of no more than 6 mph (10 km/h) until a direc- tion is displayed. This indicates that cali-bration is complete.
8. Drive around in a circle an additional two times to fine-tune the calibration.
9. Vehicles with an electrically heated windshield:
* if
C is displayed when the
heating function is activated, perform step 7 with the heating function on. Seealso Max. defroster and electricallyheated windshield* (p. 132) for additionalinformation about the heated windshield.
Repeat the calibration procedure if neces-sary.

Climate – general information
The vehicle is equipped with Electronic Cli- mate Control (ECC) (p. 128) that cools, heatsor dehumidifies the air in the passenger com-partment.
Air conditioning
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.
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 (p. 132) should beused to remove fog or mist from the inside ofthe windows. Keeping the windows cleanwith a commercially available window wash-ing spray will also help prevent fogging ormisting.
Temporary shut-off of the air conditioning
The air conditioning (p. 131) is momentarily disengaged during full acceleration or whendriving uphill with a trailer. This may result ina temporary 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. The air con-ditioning system contains 1.76 lbs (800 g) ofR134a. The systems uses PAG oil.
