Air quality
The materials used in the passenger compart- ment and air filtering system have been selectedto ensure a high level of air quality in the passen-ger compartment.
Materials used in the passenger compartment
The materials in the passenger compartment are designed to be pleasant and comfortable, evenfor people with asthma or allergies. The materials have been developed and tested to minimize dust in the passenger compartment and make it easier to keep clean. The mats in both the passenger compartment and cargo compartment can be easily removedfor cleaning. Use Volvo-recommended cleaning agents and car care products to clean the interior.
Air filtering systemsIn addition to the passenger compartment filter, the Clean Zone Interior Package * and Interior Air
Quality System * also help maintain high air qual-
ity in the passenger compartment.

Clean Zone
*
The Clean Zone function monitors the condi- tions affecting good air quality in the passengercompartment and indicates whether they are ful-filled or not.
The indicator is shown in the center display's Climate view.
The indicator is shown in the climate bar when Climate view is not open.
If the conditions are not met, the text
Clean
Zone will be shown in white. When all the condi-
tions are met, the text will change to blue. Clean Zone monitors whether:
• All doors and tailgate are closed.
• All side windows and panoramic roof
* are
closed.
• The Interior Air Quality System
* is activated.

Clean Zone Interior Package
*
Clean Zone Interior Package (CZIP) is a series of modifications that filters even more allergy andasthma-inducing substances from the passengercompartment.
CZIP includes the following:
• An enhanced function that starts the blower when the vehicle is unlocked using theremote key. The blower will then fill the pas-senger compartment with fresh air. The func-tion starts when required and switches offautomatically after a period of time or whenone of the passenger compartment doors isopened. The amount of time the blower runsgradually decreases due to reduced need upuntil the vehicle is 4 years old.
• The fully automatic Interior Air QualitySystem (IAQS).

Interior Air Quality System
*
Interior Air Quality System (IAQS) is a fully auto- matic air quality system that removes gases andparticles to reduce odors and contaminants inthe passenger compartment.
IAQS is part of the Clean Zone Interior Package (CZIP) and removes air contaminants such asparticles, hydrocarbons, nitric oxides and ground-level ozone. If the system's air quality sensors detect contami- nants in the outside air, the air intake closes andair recirculation is activated.
NOTE
To ensure optimal air quality in the passenger compartment, the air quality sensor shouldalways be engaged. Recirculation is limited in cold weather to pre- vent fogging. In the event of fogging, use the defroster functions for the windshield, side windowsand rear window.

Passenger compartment air filter
All air entering the passenger compartment through the climate control system intake is fil-tered.
Replacing the passenger compartment filter
To maintain the high performance of the climate control system, the filter must be replaced regu-larly. Follow Volvo's service schedule for recom-mended replacement intervals. When driving inareas with a lot of smog, dust, etc., the filter mayneed to be changed more frequently.
NOTE
There are two types of passenger compart- ment filters. Make sure that the correct filteris installed.

Air distribution
The climate system distributes incoming air through a number of vents in the passengercompartment.
Automatic and manual air distributionWhen the auto-climate feature is on, air distribu- tion is regulated automatically. Air distribution canalso be controlled manually.
Adjustable air ventsCertain air vents in the vehicle are adjustable,which means they can be opened/closed and thedirection of the air flow from the vent can beadjusted.
Location of adjustable air vents in the passenger com- partment.
2-zone system - four vents on the dashboard and one on each of the pillars between thefront and rear doors.
4-zone system * - two additional vents on the
rear side of the tunnel console.
4-zone system * and seven seats - one addi-
tional vent on each of the pillars behind the rear doors.

Opening, closing and directing airvents Some of the air vents in the passenger compart- ment can be individually opened, closed anddirected.
Misting can be eliminated by directing the outer air vents towards the door windows. Direct the outer air vents into the passenger compartment to maintain a comfortable tempera-ture in warm weather.
