light pressure to the display. Pressing too hard could damage the display. Do not spray liquid or corrosive chemicals directly onto the center display. Do not use win-dow cleaners, cleaning agents, aerosol sprays,solvents, alcohol, ammonia or detergents thatcontain abrasives. Never use abrasive cloths,paper towels or tissue paper, as these mayscratch the display. FOLDING DOWN THE REAR SEAT BACK- RESTS When the backrest is folded down, make sure there are no objects in the rear seat, and the seatbelts are not buckled. The integrated booster cushion*/armrest * on the center seating position
must be in the stowed position. RIGHT-SIDE STEERING WHEEL LEVER Wiper blades in service position - Before plac-
ing the wipers in service position, ensure that they have not frozen to the windshield. If thewiper arms in service position are raised fromthe windshield, they must be folded backagainst the windshield before activating wiping,washing or rain sensor as well as before depar-ture. This is to prevent scratching the paint onthe hood. CONNECTIONS Electrical outlet – Each 12-volt socket can sup-
ply a maximum of 120 W (10 A). 120-volt sockets can supply a maximum of 150 W.
NOTE
EXTERIOR OVERVIEW Foot-operated tailgate - There is a risk of
reduced or lost function if there are large amounts of snow, ice, dirt, etc. on the rearbumper. Make sure to keep the bumper clean. Please note that the system could be inadver- tently activated in a car wash or similar if theremote key is within range. Setting maximum opening height - If the sys-
tem has been working continuously for a pro- longed period of time, it will be switched off to avoid overload. It can be used again afterapproximately 2 minutes. Electromagnetic fields and obstructing objects may interfere with
remote key functions . Avoid
storing the remote key near metal objects orelectronic devices, e.g. cell phones, tablets, lap-tops or chargers – preferably no closer than10-15 cm (4-6 in.). INTERIOR OVERVIEW OFF ROAD drive mode is not designed to be
used for normal street driving. With a cold start , idling speed may be consider-
ably higher than normal for certain engine types. This is done to get the emissions system up tonormal operating temperature as quickly as pos-sible, which minimizes exhaust emissions andprotects the environment. Head-up display * – When a City Safety function
is activated, the information in the head-up dis- play will be replaced by a City Safety graphic.This graphic will illuminate even if the head-updisplay is turned off. The driver's ability to see information in the head-up display may be impeded by the use ofe.g. polarizing sunglasses, a driving posture inwhich the driver is not centered in the seat,objects on the display unit's glass cover and/orunfavorable lighting conditions. People with cer-tain types of vision problems may experienceheadaches or eye strain when using the head-updisplay. STEERING WHEEL Trip computer - Calculation of driving range
may vary if your driving style changes. PASSENGER COMPARTMENT CLIMATE Heating/cooling cannot be accelerated by choosing a higher/lower temperature than thedesired temperature. Preconditioning - The vehicle's doors and win-
dows should be closed during preconditioning of the passenger compartment. CONNECTIONS Vehicle modem – Please note that the SIM
card used for Internet connection via P-SIM must have a different phone number than the SIM card used by the cellular phone. If the cardshave the same number, calls will not be con-nected correctly to the phone. Use a SIM cardwith a separate phone number for the Internetconnection or a data card that does not handlephone calls and therefore cannot interfere withphone function. Internet
- Data (data traffic) is transfered when
using the Internet, which can incur additional costs. Activating data roaming and Wi-Fi hot-spots can incur additional charges. Contact yournetwork operator about data traffic costs. Whendownloading using a phone, pay extra attentionto the data traffic costs. Data downloading can affect other services that
transfer data, e.g. web radio. If the affect on other services is experienced as problematic, thedownload can be interrupted. Alternatively, itmay be appropriate to switch off or cancel otherservices. When downloading using a phone, payextra attention to the data traffic costs. Updating – If the phone's operating system is
being updated, it is possible that the Bluetooth connection will be interrupted. Delete the phonefrom the vehicle and reconnect. USING CONNECTED DEVICES Apple CarPlay and Android Auto – Volvo is not
responsible for the content of the CarPlay or Android Auto apps. For installation of Android Auto to be possible, the vehicle must be equipped with two USB ports (USB hub) *. If the car only has one USB
port then it is not possible to use Android Auto.
