Calibrating the compass
North America is divided into 15 magnetic zones and the compass will need to be calibrated if thevehicle is driven from one zone to another.
To calibrate the compass:
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 calibration results, switch off all electrical equipment in the vehicle (climatesystem, windshield wipers, audio system,etc.) and make sure that all doors areclosed.
• Calibration may not succeed or be incor-rect if the vehicle's electrical equipment isnot switched off.
3. Using a pen, paperclip or similar object, press
and hold the button on the underside of mir- ror for approx. 3 seconds until the number ofthe current magnetic zone is displayed.

Magnetic zones
4. Press the button on the underside of mirrorrepeatedly until the desired magnetic zone (
1–15) is displayed (see the map of mag-
netic zones).
5. Wait until
C is again displayed in the mirror
or hold the button on the underside of mirror for approx. 6 seconds until
C is displayed in
the mirror.
6. Drive slowly in a circle at a speed of no more than 6 mph (10 km/h) until a direction is dis- played. This indicates that calibration is com-plete. Drive around in a circle an additionaltwo times to fine-tune the calibration.
7. Vehicles with an electrically heated wind- shield: * if
C is displayed when the heating
function is activated, perform step 6 with the heating function on.

CAUTION
•Use ample washer fluid when washing the windshield. The windshield should bethoroughly wet when the wipers are inoperation.
• Avoid using the washers if the fluid reser-voir is frozen or empty to help avoid dam-age to the pump.
When the washing system is used, the length of time that the windshield washers operatedepends on the ambient temperature. In coldweather, the amount of washer fluid used willalso be increased automatically to help improvecleaning.
Heated washer nozzles
*The washer nozzles are heated automatically incold weather to help prevent the washer fluidfrom freezing.
High-pressure headlight washing *High-pressure headlight washing consumes alarge quantity of washer fluid. To save fluid, theheadlights are washed once for every five timesthe windshield is washed.
Reduced washingWhen approx. 1 US quart (1 liter) of washer fluidremains in the reservoir, the headlights will nolonger be washed to conserve fluid. A text message and the
symbol will be dis-
played in the instrument panel to remind the driver to fill the washer fluid reservoir.

DRIVER SUPPORT
* Option/accessory.299
CAUTION
•Service and maintenance on City Safety may only be carried out by a trained andqualified Volvo service technician.
• If a crack, scratch or stone chip shouldoccur in the section of the windshield infront the camera/radar sensor, contact atrained and qualified Volvo service techni-cian to repair or replace the windshield.Failing to do so may result in reducedCity Safety functionality.
• This can also result in certain functionsbeing reduced or disabled, or they mayrespond incorrectly.
To help avoid the risk of incorrect, reduced ordisabled functionality for driver support sys-tems using the camera or radar sensors:
• Volvo recommends that cracks, scratchesor stone chips on the windshield in front of the camera/radar sensor should
not
be repaired; in such cases, the entire windshield should be replaced.
• Before the windshield is replaced, con-tact a Volvo retailer to ensure that thecorrect windshield is ordered and instal-led. If the wrong type of windshield isused, this may cause City Safety to func-tion improperly or not at all.
• Volvo recommends the use of only Genu-ine Volvo Replacement Windshields.
• When replacing windshield wipers, use the same type or ones approved by Volvo.
After the windshield has been replaced, thecamera/radar sensor will have to be recalibra-ted by a trained and qualified Volvo servicetechnician to help ensure proper function ofall of the vehicle's camera-/radar-based sys-tems.
MaintenanceIn order for camera and radar sensor to function properly, the area of the windshield must be keptfree of dirt, ice, snow, etc. and should be washedregularly with a suitable car washing detergent.
NOTE
Dirt, ice and/or snow covering the camera and radar sensors reduce functionality andmay disable the vehicle's camera-/radar-based systems. This can also result in certain functions being reduced or disabled, or they may respond incorrectly.

CauseAction
Water or snow on the surface of the road swirl up and block radar signals or the camera's view. No action. The driver should be extra alert in conditions of this type.
There is dirt between the inside of the windshield and the camera/radar sensor. Have the area of the windshield cleaned by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician.
Strong backlighting No action required. The came will reset automatically when lightingconditions improve.
High temperaturesIf the temperature in the passenger compartment is very high, the camera and radar sensor may betemporarily turned off for approx. 15 minutesafter the engine has been started to protect theirelectronic components. When the temperaturehas cooled sufficiently, the camera and radarsensor will restart automatically.
