To help ensure the vehicle's hybrid battery is reli-
ably charged each time it is connected, charging
is stopped if the temperature in the charging
cable becomes too high and reaches a critical
limit.
CAUTION If charging is often inadvertently interrupted,
have the charging cable and the vehicle's
charging system inspected by a trained and

Always unlock the vehicle so that charging is
cut off before the connection to the
120/240 V outlet (AC, alternating current) is
disconnected. Note that the charging cable
must be disconnected from the vehicle's
charging socket before it is disconnected
from the 120/240 V outlet, partly to prevent
damage to the system and party to prevent
unintentional interruption of charging. Unlock the vehicle with the remote key.

STARTING AND DRIVING
}}
435
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 Never remove the remote control key from
the vehicle while driving.
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.
NOTE With a cold start, idling speed may be consid-
erably higher than normal for certain engine
types. This is done to get the emissions sys-
tem up to normal operating temperature as
quickly as possible, which minimizes exhaust
emissions and protects the environment.

brakes, the vehicle is also equipped with a num-
ber of automatic brake assist functions. These

cle stationary when the brake pedal is not
depressed (e.g. at a traffic light or intersection),
when starting up a hill or when driving down a hill.

||MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
612
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.

technicians is available online for purchase or

Engine compartment overview (p. 622) Data transfer between vehicle and
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 service
technician can connect your vehicle to the work-
shop's Wi-Fi network to perform troubleshooting
and download software. For this type of commu-
nication, the vehicle only connects to a work-
shop's network. It is not possible to connect the
vehicle to another Wi-Fi network (e.g. your home
network) in the same way as to a workshop's net-
work.
Connecting with remote keyConnection is usually managed by the service
technician, who will use the remote key buttons. It
is therefore important to bring a key with buttons
with you when you visit the workshop. Pressing
the lock button on the remote key three times will
connect the vehicle to the workshop's Wi-Fi net-
work.
When the car is connected to a Wi-Fi network,
the symbol appears in the center display.
