84 Instrument panel
The instrument panel displays information rela-
ted to the vehicle and driving. The instrument panel contains gauges, indicators
and monitoring and warning symbols. What is
shown in the instrument panel varies depending
on the equipment, settings and functions cur-
rently active.
The instrument panel is activated as soon as a
door is opened, i.e. in ignition mode 0. The panel
will power down after a short period of time if it is
not used. To reactivate it, do one of the following:
• Depress the brake pedal.
• Activate ignition mode I. •
Open one of the doors.
WARNING If the instrument panel is not functioning
properly, information about brakes, airbags or
other safety-related systems may not be dis-
played. The driver will then not be able to
check the status of the vehicle systems or
receive relevant warnings and information.
WARNING
If the instrument panel turns off, does not
activate when the ignition is switched on, or
part/all of the panel cannot be read, do not
drive the vehicle. Consult a workshop immedi-
ately. Volvo recommends an authorized Volvo
workshop.

HYBRID INFORMATION

Long-term storage of vehicles with
hybrid batteries
To help minimize degradation of the hybrid bat-
tery if the vehicle is not driven for a prolonged
period (longer than 1 month) the hybrid battery
charge level should be kept at approx. 25%
according to the gauge in the instrument panel.
Do as follows:
1. If the hybrid battery charge level is high, drive
the vehicle until the charge level is approxi-
mately 25%. If the charge level is low, charge
the battery until the level reaches approxi-
mately 25%. 2.

If the vehicle is not driven for more than 6
months or the hybrid battery's charge level is
noticeably below the 25% mark, charge the
battery to about 25% to help compensate for
the natural battery discharge that occurs in
long-term storage. Regularly check the
charge level using the gauge in the instru-
ment display.
NOTE Store the vehicle in as cool a location as pos-
sible to minimize battery aging during long-
term storage. In the summer, park the vehicle
indoors or in a shady location, whichever is
cooler.

STARTING AND DRIVING
}}
425
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.
NOTE
The vehicle cannot be started if the hybrid
battery is discharged.
WARNING •
Always remove the remote key from the
passenger compartment when you leave
the vehicle and make sure the ignition is
in mode 0.
• Always put the gear selector in P and
apply the parking brake before leaving
the vehicle. Never leave the vehicle unsu-
pervised while the engine is running.
• Always open the garage door fully and
make sure that ventilation is very good
before starting the engine in a garage.
The exhaust fumes produced by the vehi-
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.
