SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
The Owner's Manual and other manuals contain safety instructions and all warning, caution andnote texts, which must be read. Some functionsonly apply to certain markets.
WARNING
GETTING STARTED Volvo On Call – The system's services only
work in areas in which Volvo On Call's partners have cellular coverage and in markets whereVolvo On Call is available. Just as with cellular phones, atmospheric distur- bances or areas with fewer transmitters, e.g.sparsely populated rural areas, can make con-nection impossible. For warning, caution and note texts for Volvo On Call services, see the Owner's Manual andthe applicable agreement for the Volvo On Callsubscription. Sensus Navigation * – Direct all your attention
to the road and make sure that your concentra- tion is focused on driving. Follow applicable traf-fic laws and use good judgment while driving.Road conditions can be affected by weather orseason, which may make certain recommenda-tions less reliable. EXTERIOR OVERVIEW Tailgate – Bear in mind the risk of pinching
when opening/closing the tailgate. Make sure that no one is in the path of the tailgate whocould be injured by its movement. Always oper-ate the tailgate with caution. Keyless locking/unlocking * – Check that chil-
dren or other passengers are not at risk of crush- ing when all the windows are closed with key- less closing *.
INTERIOR OVERVIEW Passenger airbag – Volvo recommends that all
occupants (adults and children) shorter than 140 cm (4 foot 7 inches) be seated in the rear seat of any vehicle with a front passenger sideairbag and be properly restrained for their heightand weight. Occupant Weight Sensor (OWS) 
No objects that add to the total weight on the seat should be placed on the front passenger'sseat. If a child is seated in the front passeng-er's seat with any additional weight, this extraweight could cause the OWS system to ena-ble the airbag, which might cause it to deployin the event of a collision, thereby injuring thechild.
 The seat belt should never be wrapped aroundan object on the front passenger's seat. Thiscould interfere with the OWS system's func-tion.
 The front passenger's seat belt should neverbe used in a way that exerts more pressure onthe passenger than normal. This couldincrease the pressure exerted on the weightsensor by a child, and could result in the air-bag being enabled, which might cause it todeploy in the event of a collision, thereby injur-ing the child.
Always take the remote key with you when you
leave the vehicle. Make sure the ignition is inmode 0, especially if there are children in the
vehicle. Always apply the parking brake when parking
on an incline. Selecting a gear or putting the automatic transmission in P may not be suffi-
cient to keep the vehicle stationary in all situa-tions. CHARGING THE HYBRID BATTERY
 Charging the hybrid battery may only be done from approved, grounded 120/240 V outlets(AC, alternating current). If the electrical circuitor electrical socket's capacity is not known, leta licensed electrician inspect the electrical cir-cuit's capacity. Using a charge level thatexceeds the electrical circuit's or electricaloutlet's capacity may start a fire or damagethe electrical circuit.
 The charging cable must be grounded when inuse. It is equipped with a cord with a ground- ing conductor and a grounding plug. The plugmust be inserted into an appropriate outletthat is properly installed and grounded inaccordance with all local codes and ordinan-ces and is not damaged in any way.
 Children should be supervised when in thevicinity of the charging cable when it is plug-ged in.
 The charging cable and its components mustnot be rinsed or immersed in water.
 High voltage is present in your electric meterhousing and power distribution service panel.Contact with high voltage can cause death orserious personal injury.
 Do not use the charging cable if it is damagedin any way. A damaged or malfunctioningcharging cable may only be repaired by aworkshop – an authorized Volvo workshop isrecommended.
 Always position the charging cable so that itwill not be driven over, stepped on, trippedover or otherwise damaged, or cause personalinjury.
 Disconnect the charger from the wall outletbefore cleaning it.
 Never connect the charging cable to an exten-sion cord or a multiple plug socket.
 Avoid visibly worn or damaged electrical out-lets since they may lead to fire damage and/orpersonal injury if used.
 Do not use one or more adapters between thecharging cable and the electric outlet.
 Do not use an external timer between thecharging cable and the electrical outlet.
Also, refer to the manufacturer's instructions forusing the charging cable and its components. POWER FRONT SEATS Do not adjust the seat while driving. The seat must be positioned in a way that allows thedriver to fully depress the brake pedal. Adjust theseat as far rearward as comfort and controlallow. After adjusting the seat, make sure that itis securely locked into position before starting todrive. FOLDING DOWN THE REAR SEAT BACK- RESTS Make sure the backrest is correctly engaged before folding up and down and that the headrestraint is correctly engaged after folding up.The head restraints on the outboard second-rowseats must always be folded up when there are passengers in the third row of seats

DRIVER SUPPORT The vehicle's driver support systems are designed to offer supplementary assistance tothe driver, but cannot handle all situations in alltraffic, weather and road conditions. They arenever a substitute for the driver's attention andjudgment. The driver is always responsible forensuring the vehicle is driven in a safe manner,at the appropriate speed, with an appropriatedistance to other vehicles, and in accordancewith current traffic rules and regulations. Thedriver always has ultimate responsibility forbraking and steering the vehicle. Before driving your vehicle, read all sections of the Owner's Manual concerning driver supportsystems in the vehicle. PARKING ASSISTANCE SYSTEMS Park Assist Pilot is a supplementary driver sup-
port but cannot handle all situations. The func- tion is only intended to assist the driver whenparallel and perpendicular parking. The driverbears full responsibility for parking the vehiclesafely and braking when necessary. Objectslocated far into the parking space may not be
07

detected when scanning. The driver is always responsible for assessing whether the spacesuggested by Park Assist Pilot is suitable forparking. Park Assist Camera is supplementary driver
support intended to assist when parking the vehicle. The function is never a substitute for thedriver's attention and judgment. The camerashave dead/blind spots where objects cannot bedetected. Pay particular attention to people andanimals near the vehicle. Bear in mind that thefront end of the vehicle may swing out towardsoncoming traffic during the parking maneuver.

CAUTION
INTERIOR OVERVIEW Start knob – The vehicle cannot be started if the
charging cable is still plugged in. Make sure that the charging cable is removed from the chargingsocket before starting the vehicle. Do not use the OFF ROAD drive mode when
towing a trailer without an electrical connection. This could result in damage to the pneumaticsuspension system's bellows. The information is projected from a head-up
display unit * located in the dashboard. To help
prevent damage to the display unit's glass cover, do not place any objects on the glass and pre-vent objects from falling onto it. Wireless phone charger Keep cellular phones
and charger stations away from other objects while charging to help avoid overheating. Do notplace cards with NFC (Near Field Communica-tion), e.g. debit cards for contactless payment,next to the phone. This type of card could bedestroyed during charging. CENTER DISPLAY When cleaning
the center display, use a micro-
fiber cloth that is free from sand and similar deb- ris. When cleaning the center display, apply onlylight pressure to the display. Pressing too hardcould 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. CHARGING THE HYBRID BATTERY Charging cable - Never connect the charging
cable if there is a risk of a thunderstorm or there is lightning. Never detach the charging cablefrom the 120/240-volt outlet while charging isin progress – the 120/240-volt outlet could bedamaged in such circumstances. Always inter-rupt charging first and then disconnect thecharging cable – first from the vehicle's chargingsocket and then from the 120/240 V outlet. Power strips, extension cords, surge protectors or similar devices must not be used togetherwith the charging cable since this may involve arisk of fire, electric shocks, etc. An adapter maynot be used between the 120/240-volt outletand the charging cable. Control unit – Avoid exposing the control unit
and its plug to direct sunlight. In such cases, the overheating protection in the plug could reduceor cut off charging of the hybrid battery. Check that the 120/240-volt outlet has a power supply sufficient for charging electric vehicles –if uncertain, you should have the outlet checkedby a professional. Wipe the charging cable with a clean cloth lightly moistened with water or a mild detergent.Do not use chemicals or solvents. Do not sub-merge the charging cable. Only use the charging cable provided with your vehicle or a replacement cable purchased from aVolvo retailer. 
Check the capacity of the socket.
 Other electronic equipment connected on thesame fuse circuit must be disconnected if thetotal load is exceeded.
 Do not connect the charging cable if thesocket is damaged.
 Make sure that the fuse to the wall outlet canhandle the current specified for the chargingcable.
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).
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 toavoid overload. It can be used again afterapproximately 2 minutes Electromagnetic fields and obstructing objectsmay 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 is only available when the vehi-
cle is connected to an electrical outlet. A charg- ing post that is not always active, for examplebecause of a timer, can cause loss of function forpreconditioning. If the vehicle is not connectedto an electrical socket it is still possible in awarm climate to achieve brief cooling of the pas-senger compartment by direct starting precondi-tioning. The vehicle doors and windows should
07

be closed during preconditioning of the passen- ger compartment. CONNECTIONS Vehicle modem – Please note that the SIM
card used for Internet connection via P-SIM must have a different phone number than theSIM 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.
