WARNING
•Keep the following points in mind withrespect to the OWS system. Failure tofollow these instructions could adverselyaffect the system's function and result inserious injury to the occupant of the frontpassenger's seat:
•The full weight of the front seat passen-ger should always be on the seat cushion.The passenger should never lift him/herself off the seat cushion using thearmrest in the door or the center console,by pressing the feet on the floor, by sit-ting on the edge of the seat cushion, orby pressing against the backrest in a waythat reduces pressure on the seat cush-ion. This could cause OWS to disable thefront, passenger's side airbag.
WARNING
•Do not place any type of object on thefront passenger's seat in such a way thatjamming, pressing, or squeezing occursbetween the object and the front seat,other than as a direct result of the correctuse of the Automatic Locking Retractor/Emergency Locking Retractor (ALR/ELR)seat belt.
•No objects should be placed under thefront passenger's seat. This could inter-fere with the OWS system's function.

•Airbag system (p. 71)Side impact airbags
As an enhancement to the structural side impactprotection built into your vehicle, it is also equip-ped with Side Impact Protection System (SIPS)airbags.
The SIPS airbag system is designed to helpincrease occupant protection in the event of cer-tain side impact collisions. The SIPS airbags aredesigned to deploy only during certain side-impact collisions, depending on the crashseverity, angle, speed and point of impact.
NOTE
SIPS airbag deployment (one airbag) occursonly on the side of the vehicle affected by theimpact. The airbags are not designed todeploy in all side impact situations.

The accuracy of this figure may vary if your driv-ing style changes. An economical driving style willgenerally increase this distance.
Distance to discharged battery
This gauge shows the approximate distance thatcan be driven on the charge remaining in thehybrid battery. When the gauge displays "----"there is no guaranteed driving charge remainingin the battery.
This calculation is based on the average electricalcurrent consumption in a normally loaded vehicleduring normal driving, and whether the A/C is onor off.
An economical driving style will generallyincrease this distance.
Distance using the electric motor
To get the optimal driving distance using theelectric motor, it is essential to conserve current.Functions that use a great deal of current (e.g.,audio system, electrical heating in the steeringwheel/door mirrors/rear window/seats, very coldair from the climate system, etc.) reduce the pos-sible driving distance.
NOTE
In addition to high electrical consumption inthe passenger compartment, fast accelera-tion, sudden braking, heavy loads, low ambienttemperatures and driving up hills can reducethe possible driving distance.
Tourist (alternative speedometer)
This is an alternative digital speedometer can beused when driving in areas in which the speedlimit is listed in a different unit of measure. If thespeedometer is in mph, this gauge will show thevehicle's speed in km/h and vice versa.

Gate Operator/Canadian Programming
Canadian radio-frequency laws require transmit-ter signals to “time-out” (or quit) after severalseconds of transmission – which may not be longenough for HomeLink to pick up the signal dur-ing programming. Similar to this Canadian law,some U.S. gate operators are designed to “time-out” in the same manner.
If you live in Canada or you are having difficultiesprogramming a gate operator or garage dooropener by using the “Programming” procedures,replace “Programming HomeLink” step 3with the following:
•Continue to press and hold the HomeLinkbutton while you press and release - everytwo seconds (“cycle”) your hand-held trans-mitter until the HomeLink indicator lightchanges from a slow to a rapidly blinkinglight. Now you may release both the Home-Link and hand-held transmitter buttons.
Proceed with “Programming” step 4 to complete.
Using HomeLink ®
When programming has been completed,
HomeLink® can be used instead of the originalremote controls.
To operate, press and hold the programmed
HomeLink® button until the trained device begins
to operate3 (this may take several seconds). The
indicator light will glow steadily or flash when thebutton has been pressed. Activation will nowoccur for the trained device (i.e., garage dooropener, gate operator, security system, entry doorlock, home/office lighting, etc.).
NOTE
If the ignition is switched off, HomeLink willfunction for 30 minutes after the driver's doorhas been opened.
For convenience, the hand-held transmitter of thedevice may also be used at any time.
In the event that there are still programming diffi-culties or questions, contact HomeLink at:www.HomeLink.com, www.youtube.com/HomeLinkGentex or by phoning the hotline at 1–800–355–3515.
Resetting HomeLink ®
buttons
Use the following procedure to reset (erase pro-
gramming) from the three HomeLink® buttons(individual buttons cannot be reset but can be“reprogrammed” as outlined in the following sec-tion):
1.Press and hold HomeLink® buttons 1 and 3for approx. 10 seconds until the indicatorlight begins to flash green.
2. Release both buttons.
>HomeLink® is now in the training (orlearning) mode and can be programmedat any time beginning with “To program
HomeLink®" above.
Reprogramming a single HomeLink ®
button
To reprogram an individual HomeLink® button:
1.Press and hold the desired HomeLink® but-ton. DO NOT release the button.
2. The yellow indicator light will begin to flashafter 20 seconds. Without releasing theHomeLink button, proceed with “To program
HomeLink®" step 1 above.
For questions or comments, contact HomeLinkat: www.HomeLink.com, www.youtube.com/HomeLinkGentex or by phoning the hotline at 1–800–355–3515.

Voice control
Voice commands make it possible for the driverto voice-control certain functions in the mediaplayer, a Bluetooth-connected cell phone, cli-mate system and the Volvo navigation system*.
Voice control offers convenience and enables thedriver to keep his/her hands on the steeringwheel and concentrate on driving and the trafficsituation around the vehicle.
WARNING
As the driver, you have full responsibility foroperating the vehicle safely and adhering toall applicable traffic regulations.
Input to the system is in dialog form and compri-ses commands from the driver and a verbalresponse from the system.
The voice control system uses the same micro-
phone as the Bluetooth hands-free system andsystem responses come via the infotainment sys-tem's speakers.
In certain cases, text messages are also providedin the instrument panel.
The functions are controlled using the right-sidesteering wheel keypad and settings are madefrom the center console.
System updates
The voice control system is being constantlyimproved and updates should be downloaded foroptimal functionality. See the support sitesupport.volvocars.com.
