Volvo and the environment Volvo is committed to the well-being of its cus- tomers. As a natural part of this commitment, wecare about the environment in which we all live.Concern for the environment means an everydayinvolvement in reducing our environmentalimpact.
Volvo's environmental activities are based on a holistic view, which means we consider the over-all environmental impact of a product throughoutits complete life cycle. In this context, design, pro-duction, product use, and recycling are all impor-tant considerations. In production, Volvo haspartly or completely phased out several chemicalsincluding CFCs, lead chromates, asbestos, andcadmium; and reduced the number of chemicalsused in our plants 50% since 1991. Volvo was the first in the world to introduce into production a three-way catalytic converter with aLambda sond, now called the heated oxygen sen-sor, in 1976. The current version of this highlyefficient system reduces emissions of harmfulsubstances (CO, HC, NOx) from the exhaust pipeby approximately 95 – 99% and the search toeliminate the remaining emissions continues.Volvo is the only automobile manufacturer tooffer CFC-free retrofit kits for the air conditioningsystem of all models as far back as the 1975model 240. Advanced electronic engine controlsand cleaner fuels are bringing us closer to ourgoal. In addition to continuous environmentalrefinement of conventional gasoline-poweredinternal combustion engines, Volvo is activelylooking at advanced technology alternative-fuelvehicles. When you drive a Volvo, you become our partner in the work to lessen the car's impact on theenvironment. To reduce your vehicle's environ-mental impact, you can:
• Maintain proper air pressure in your tires. Tests have shown decreased fuel economywith improperly inflated tires.
• Follow the recommended maintenanceschedule in your Warranty and ServiceRecords Information booklet.
• Drive at a constant speed whenever possible.
• See a trained and qualified Volvo servicetechnician as soon as possible for inspectionif the check engine (malfunction indicator)light illuminates, or stays on after the vehiclehas started.
• Properly dispose of any vehicle-related wastesuch as used motor oil, used batteries, brakepads, etc.
• When cleaning your vehicle, please use gen-uine Volvo car care products. All Volvo carcare products are formulated to be environ-mentally friendly.
Volvo XC90 T8 Twin Engine Plug-in Hybrid
• If possible, precondition the vehicle with the charging cable before driving.
• If preconditioning is not possible in coldweather, use the seat and steering wheelheating primarily. Avoid heating the entirepassenger compartment, which reduces thehybrid battery's charge level.
• Choose the
Pure drive mode to help mini-
mize electric power consumption.
• In hilly terrain, put the gear selector in mode B
to utilize the electric motor's braking func-
tion when the accelerator pedal is released. This helps charge the hybrid battery.
• Select the
Save drive mode for higher
speeds when driving farther than is possible using the electric motor only.

Function view: vehicle functions can be acti- vated/deactivated by tapping. Certain func-tions are called "trigger functions", which open settings windows, e.g.,
Camera and
parking functions. Settings for the head-up display * are also started from Function view
but the actual interaction is controlled from the steering wheel keypad buttons and theinstrument panel.
Home view: the initial view shown when the center display is started.
App (Application) view: shows apps that have been downloaded (third-party apps) as well as ones for integrated functions such as
FM
radio. Tap an icon to open the app.
Status bar: vehicle activities are shown at the top of the screen. Network/connection infor-mation is shown on the left side of the bar.Media-related information, the clock andinformation about background activities areshown to the right.

INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS
96
Trip computer The trip computer registers and calculates infor- mation such as distance driven, fuel consump-tion and average speed. This information is dis-played in the instrument panel.
To help promote fuel efficient driving, the trip computer provides readings for current and aver-age fuel consumption. The trip computer includes the following gauges:
• Trip odometers
• Odometer
• Current fuel consumption
• Distance to empty
• Tourist (alternative speedometer)
Trip odometerThere are two trip odometers: TM and TA. During a drive, the trip odometer registers:
• Mileage
• Driving time
• Average speed
• Average fuel consumption
The values displayed are those since the lasttime the trip odometer was reset.
OdometerThe odometer registers the vehicle's total mile-age and cannot be reset.
Current fuel consumptionThis gauge shows the current fuel consumption.This reading is updated once a second.
Distance to emptyThis function shows the approximate distancethat can be driven on the fuel remaining in thetank. The calculation is based on average fuel con- sumption during the last 20 miles (30 km) ofdriving and the amount of fuel remaining in thetank. When the gauge displays "----", there is very little useable fuel remaining in the tank; refuel as soonas possible. The accuracy of this figure may vary if your driv-ing style changes. An economical driving style willgenerally increase this distance.
Distance to discharged batteryThis gauge shows the approximate distance thatcan be driven on the charge remaining in thehybrid battery. When the gauge displays "----"there is no guaranteed driving charge remainingin the battery. This calculation is based on the average electrical current consumption in a normally loaded vehicleduring normal driving, and whether the A/C is onor off. An economical driving style will generally increase this distance.
Distance using the electric motor
To get the optimal driving distance using the electric motor, it is essential to conserve current.Functions that use a great deal of current (e.g.,audio system, electrical heating in the steeringwheel/door mirrors/rear window/seats, very coldair from the climate system, etc.) reduce the pos-sible driving distance.
NOTE
In addition to high electrical consumption in the passenger compartment, fast accelera-tion, sudden braking, heavy loads, low ambienttemperatures and driving up hills can reducethe possible driving distance.
