ing system but cannot ensure that an cur-
rent overload will never occur.
• Never use visibly worn or damaged elec-
trical sockets. Doing so could lead to fires
or serious injury.
• Never connect the charging cable to an
extension cord.
• Maintenance or replacement of the hybrid
battery may only be performed by a
trained and qualified Volvo service techni-
cian.

120/240 V outlet (AC, alternating current) is
disconnected. Note that the charging cable
must be disconnected from the vehicle's

STARTING AND DRIVING
}}

In some situations, such as in cold weather or if
the hybrid battery's charge level is too low, the
gasoline engine will start instead.
The vehicle should not be started with the charg-
ing cable connected. However, if the cable can-
not be pulled out or if the vehicle incorrectly
detects a cable that is not connected, the vehicle
can be started using an override procedure:
1.

Press the brake pedal and turn the start
knob clockwise.
2. Charge cable Remove before start will
appear in the instrument panel.
3.

Turn the start knob clockwise again.
4. Removed? Turn and hold start knob 7s
will appear. Turn the knob clockwise and hold
it for 7 seconds to start the vehicle. Location of the backup reader in the tunnel console. If the
Vehicle key not found message is shown
in the instrument panel at start, place the remote
key at the backup reader and then make a new
start attempt.
NOTE When the remote key is placed in the backup
reader, make sure that no other vehicle keys,
metal objects or electronic devices (e.g. cellu-
lar phones, tablets, laptops or chargers) are in
the backup reader. Multiple vehicle keys close
to each other in the backup reader can dis-
rupt their functionality.
If Vehicle start System check, wait is dis-
played in the instrument panel while attempting
to start the vehicle, wait until the message disap-
pears and try again to start the vehicle.
CAUTION If the engine has not responded after 3
attempts – wait for 3 minutes before starting
a new attempt. Starting capability increases if
the starter battery is given time to recover.

battery is discharged.

Always remove the remote key from the
passenger compartment when you leave
the vehicle and make sure the ignition is
in mode 0.

apply the parking brake before leaving
the vehicle. Never leave the vehicle unsu-
pervised while the engine is running.

cle contain carbon monoxide, which is
invisible and odorless but very toxic.
WARNING Never remove the remote control key from
the vehicle while driving.
WARNING
Always take along the remote control key
when leaving the vehicle and make sure that
the vehicle electrical system is in ignition
mode 0 – especially if there are children in
the vehicle.

||MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
600
Monthly:
•
Check cold tire pressure in all tires. Inspect
the tires for wear.
• Check that engine coolant and other fluid
levels are between the indicated "min" and
"max" markings.
• Clean interior glass surfaces with a glass
cleaner and soft paper towels.
• Wipe driver information displays with a soft
cloth.
• Visually inspect battery terminals for corro-
sion. Corrosion may indicate a loose terminal
connector, or a battery near the end of its
useful service life. Consult your Volvo retailer
for additional information.
As needed:
Wash the car, including the undercarriage, to
reduce wear that can be caused by a buildup of
dirt, and corrosion that can be caused by salt res-
idues.
Clean leaves and twigs from air intake vents at
the base of the windshield, and from other places
where they may collect.

workshop over Wi-Fi
Volvo workshops have a designated Wi-Fi net-
work for secure data transfer between your vehi-
cle and the workshop. Your visit to the workshop
will be easier and more effective when diagnos-
tics information and software can be transferred
over the workshop's network.
When you arrive at the workshop, your technician
can connect your vehicle to the workshop's Wi-Fi
network to perform troubleshooting and down-
load software. For this type of communication,
the vehicle only connects to the workshop's net-
work. The vehicle can only be connected to the
designated workshop networks, not to any other
network, e.g. your home network.
Manual connection to workshop Wi-FiManual connection is usually performed by a
service technician. Because the technician uses
the buttons on your remote key to connect the
vehicle, it is important that you bring a key with
buttons when taking the vehicle in to a workshop.
Pressing the lock button on the remote key three
times will connect the vehicle to the workshop's
Wi-Fi network.
When the car is connected to a Wi-Fi network,
the symbol appears in the center display.
