WARNING •
If you use HomeLink ®
to open a garage
door or gate, be sure no one is near the
gate or door while it is in motion.
• Do not use HomeLink ®
with any garage
door opener that lacks safety stop and
reverse features as required by US fed-
eral safety standards (this includes any
garage door opener model manufactured
before April 1, 1982). A garage door that
cannot detect an object - signaling the
door to stop and reverse - does not meet
current U.S. federal safety standards. For
more information, contact HomeLink at:

NOTE Always remember to calibrate the Tire Pres-
sure Monitoring System when the wheels
have been changed or the tire inflation pres-
sure has been corrected according to the tire
pressure decal or tire inflation pressure table.
If correct reference values have not been set,
the system cannot issue low tire pressure
alerts correctly.
The vehicle must be stationary with the
engine running to access the calibration but-
ton and to start the calibration process.
WARNING
The exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide,
which is invisible and odorless but very poi-
sonous. For this reason, always perform the
calibration procedure outdoors or in a work-
shop with exhaust gas evacuation equipment.

11
The spare wheel is a Temporary spare and can
be used to temporarily replace a punctured tire
on one of the vehicle's regular wheels. The spare tire is only intended for temporary use.
Replace it with a normal wheel as soon as possi-
ble.
The driving characteristics of the vehicle change
and ground clearance reduces when the spare
wheel is used. Do not wash the vehicle in an
automatic car wash while using the Temporary
Spare.
The recommended tire pressure must be main-
tained regardless of at which position the tempo-
rary spare wheel is used on the vehicle.
If the spare wheel is damaged, a new one can be
purchased from a Volvo retailer.
WARNING Current legislation prohibits the use of the
"Temporary Spare" tire other than as a tem-
porary replacement for a punctured tire. It
must be replaced as soon as possible by a
standard tire. Road holding and handling may
be affected with the "Temporary Spare" in
use. Do not drive faster than 80 km/h
(50 mph).

584 Using the electrical outlets
The 12 V outlet can be used for devices
intended for this such as MP3 players, coolers
and cellular phones.
The high-voltage outlet* can be used for devices
intended for this, such as chargers, laptops, etc. The ignition must be in at least mode I for the
outlets to supply current. The outlets will then be
active as long as there is sufficient charge in the
start battery.
If the engine is turned off and the vehicle is
locked, the outlets will be deactivated. If the
engine is turned off and the vehicle remains
unlocked, the sockets will remain active for up to
7 minutes.
NOTE Bear in mind that using the electrical outlets
when the engine is off could cause the starter
battery to have too low of a charge level,
which could limit other functionality.
Accessories connected to the electrical out-
lets can be activated even when the vehicle
electrical system is off or if preconditioning is
used. For this reason, disconnect plugs when
they are not in use to prevent the starter bat-
tery from becoming discharged.
WARNING •
Do not use accessories with large or
heavy plugs – they could damage the out-
let or come loose while you are driving.
• Do not use accessories that could cause
disruptions to e.g. the vehicle's radio
receiver or electrical system.
• Position the accessory so that there is no
risk of it injuring the driver or passengers
in the event of heavy braking or a colli-
sion.
• Pay attention to connected accessories
as they can generate heat that could burn
passengers or the interior.

• Passenger compartment interior (p. 580) Cargo compartment
The vehicle has a flexible cargo compartment
that makes it possible to carry and secure large
objects.
The cargo compartment capacity can be consid-
erably increased by folding down the backrests in
the second and third rows* of seats. To make
loading and unloading easier, the rear section of
the vehicle can be raised and lowered using the
level control function*. Use the load anchoring
eyelets or grocery bag holders to help secure
objects in place, and the retractable cargo com-
partment cover* to help conceal objects in the
cargo compartment.
If the vehicle is equipped with a temporary spare
tire, this is secured to the cargo compartment
floor under the cover. The towing eyelet and tire
sealing system are located under the cargo com-
partment floor.

• Installing and removing the cargo compart-
ment cover* (p. 589) Loading recommendations
There are a number of things to consider when
carrying loads in or on the vehicle. Load-carrying capacity is determined by the vehi-
cle's curb weight. The total weight of all passen-
gers and any installed accessories reduces the
vehicle's load-carrying capacity by the corres-
ponding amount.
WARNING The vehicle's driving characteristics change
depending on the weight and position of the
load.
Loading in the trunk and cargo
compartment
•
Position objects so they are pressing against
the rear seat backrests.
• Distribute the load evenly.
• Heavy objects should be positioned as low
as possible. Avoid placing heavy objects on
folded-down seat backrests.
• Cover sharp corners with a soft cloth or simi-
lar to help prevent damage to the upholstery.
• Use the load anchoring eyelets and tension-
ing straps or similar to secure all objects.
