About this manual
•Before you operate your vehicle for the first
time, please familiarize yourself with the
information found in the chapters "Instru-
ments and controls" and "Starting and
driving."
•Information contained in the balance of the
manual is extremely useful and should be
read after operating the vehicle for the first
time.
•The manual is structured so that it can be
used for reference. For this reason, it
should be kept in the vehicle for ready
access.
FootnotesCertain pages of this manual contain informa-
tion in the form of footnotes at the bottom of
the page. This information supplements the
text that the footnote number refers to (a letter
is used if the footnote refers to text in a table).
Display textsThere are several displays in the driver’s field
of vision that show messages generated by
various systems and functions in the vehicle.
These texts are indicated in the Owner’s Man-
ual by being in slightly larger type than the sur-
rounding text and are printed in gray, (for
example:
Change doors unlock setting).
DecalsThere are various types of decals in the vehicle
whose purpose is to provide important infor-
mation in a clear and concise way. The impor-
tance of these decals is explained as follows,
in descending order of importance.
Risk of injury
G031590
Black ISO symbols on a yellow warning back-
ground, white text/image on a black back-
ground. Decals of this type are used to indicate
potential danger. Ignoring a warning of this
type could result in serious injury or death.

ShiftlockWhen your vehicle is parked, the gear selector
is locked in the P (Park) position. To release the
selector from this position, turn the ignition key
to position II (or start the engine), depress the
brake pedal, press the button on the front side
of the gear selector and move the selector from
P (Park).
KeylockWhen you switch off the ignition, the gear
selector must be in the P (Park) position before
the key can be removed from the ignition
switch.
Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)The ABS system in your vehicle performs a
self-diagnostic test when the vehicle first rea-
ches the speed of approximately 12 mph
(20 km/h). The brake pedal will pulsate several
times and a sound may be audible from the
ABS control module. This is normal.
Fuel filler doorPress the button on the light switch panel (see
the illustration on page 67) when the vehicle
is at a standstill to unlock the fuel filler door.
Please note that the fuel filler door will remain
unlocked until the vehicle begins to move for-
ward. An audible click will be heard when the
fuel filler door relocks.
Points to keep in mind
•Do not export your Volvo to another coun-
try before investigating that country's
applicable safety and exhaust emission
requirements. In some cases it may be dif-
ficult or impossible to comply with these
requirements. Modifications to the emis-
sion control system(s) may render your
Volvo not certifiable for legal operation in
the U.S., Canada and other countries.
•All information, illustrations and specifica-
tions contained in this manual are based on
the latest product information available at
the time of publication. Please note that
some vehicles may be equipped differ-
ently, depending on special legal require-
ments. Optional equipment described in
this manual may not be available in all mar-
kets.
•Volvo reserves the right to make model
changes at any time, or to change specifi-
cations or design without notice and with-
out incurring obligation.
Volvo Structural Parts Statement
Volvo has always been and continues to be a
leader in automotive safety. Volvo engineers
and manufactures vehicles designed to help
protect vehicle occupants in the event of a col-
lision.
Volvos are designed to absorb the impact of a
collision. This energy absorption system
including, but not limited to, structural compo-
nents such as bumper reinforcement bars,
bumper energy absorbers, frames, rails, fender
aprons, A-pillars, B-pillars and body panels
must work together to maintain cabin integrity
and protect the vehicle occupants.
The supplemental restraint system including
but not limited to air bags, side curtain air bags,
and deployment sensors work together with
the above components to provide proper tim-
ing for air bag deployment.
Due to the above, Volvo Cars of North America
does not support the use of aftermarket, alter-
native or anything other than original Volvo
parts for collision repair.
In addition Volvo does not support the use or
re-use of structural components from an exist-
ing vehicle that has been previously damaged.
Although these parts may appear equivalent, it
is difficult to tell if the parts have been previ-
ously replaced with non-OE parts or if the part
has been damaged as a result of a prior colli-

This condition reflects limitations of the OWS
classification capability. It does not indicate
OWS malfunction.
ModificationsIf you are considering modifying your vehicle in
any way to accommodate a disability, for
example by altering or adapting the driver's or
front passenger's seat(s) and/or airbag sys-
tems, please contact Volvo at:

WARNING
•No objects that add to the total weight
on the seat should be placed on the
front passenger's seat. If a child is
seated in the front passenger's seat
with any additional weight, this extra
weight could cause the OWS system to
enable the airbag, which might cause it
to deploy in the event of a collision,
thereby injuring the child.
•The seat belt should never be wrapped
around an object on the front passeng-
er's seat. This could interfere with the
OWS system's function.
•The front passenger's seat belt should
never be used in a way that exerts more
pressure on the passenger than normal.
This could increase the pressure exer-
ted on the weight sensor by a child, and
could result in the airbag being enabled,
which might cause it to deploy in the
event of a collision, thereby injuring the
child.
WARNING
Keep the following points in mind with
respect to the OWS system. Failure to follow
these instructions could adversely affect the
system's function and result in serious injury
to the occupant of the front passenger's
seat:
•The full weight of the front seat passen-
ger should always be on the seat cush-
ion. The passenger should never lift
him/herself off the seat cushion using
the armrest in the door or the center
console, by pressing the feet on the
floor, by sitting on the edge of the seat
cushion, or by pressing against the
backrest in a way that reduces pressure
on the seat cushion. This could cause
OWS to disable the front passenger's
side airbag.
•Do not place any type of object on the
front passenger's seat in such a way
that jamming, pressing, or squeezing
occurs between the object and the front
seat, other than as a direct result of the
correct use of the Automatic Locking
Retractor/Emergency Locking Retrac-
tor (ALR/ELR) seat belt (see page 38).
•No objects should be placed under the
front passenger's seat. This could inter-
fere with the OWS system's function.
