Drive-E ‒ purer driving pleasure
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 aholistic 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 intoproduction 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 our

goal. 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 partnerin the work to lessen the vehicle'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.
Twin Engine vehicles
•If possible, precondition the vehicle with thecharging 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 modeB to utilize the electric motor's braking func-tion when the accelerator pedal is released.This helps charge the hybrid battery.

Data recording
As part of Volvo's commitment to safety andquality, certain information is recorded regardingvehicle operation, functionality and incidents.
This vehicle is equipped with an event datarecorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR isto record, in certain crash or near crash-like sit-uations, such as an airbag deployment or hittinga road obstacle, data that will assist in under-standing how a vehicle's systems performed. TheEDR is designed to record data related to vehicledynamics and safety systems for a short period oftime, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR inthis vehicle is designed to record such data as:
•How various systems in your vehicle wereoperating;
•Whether or not the driver and passengersafety belts were buckled/fastened;
•How far (if at all) the driver was depressingthe accelerator and/or brake pedal; and,
•How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better understand-ing of the circumstances in which crashes andinjuries occur.
EDR data is only recorded by the vehicle if amore serious collision situation occurs. No data isrecorded by the EDR under normal driving condi-tions and the EDR never registers who is drivingthe vehicle or the location of a crash or a nearcrash-like situation. However, other parties, such
as law enforcement, could combine the EDR datawith the type of personally identifying data rou-tinely acquired during a crash investigation. Toread data recorded by an EDR, special equipmentis required, and access to the vehicle or the EDRis needed.
Furthermore, your vehicle is equipped with anumber of computers whose task is to continu-ously control and monitor the vehicle's operation.They can also register some of this informationduring normal driving conditions, most importantlyif they detect a fault relating to the vehicle'soperation and functionality or upon activation ofthe vehicle's active safety systems (e.g. CitySafety and the auto-brake function). Some of theregistered information is required by technicianswhen carrying out service and maintenance toenable them to diagnose and rectify any faultsthat have occurred in the vehicle and to enableVolvo to fulfill legal and other regulatory require-ments. Information thus registered in the vehicleis registered in the vehicle's computers until thevehicle is serviced or repaired. In addition to theabove, the registered information may - on anaggregated basis - be used for research andproduct development purposes in order to contin-uously improve the safety and quality of Volvovehicles.
