Battery drain
Your vehicle's electrical functions drain the bat-tery to varying extents.
Avoid using ignition mode II as much as posssi-ble, or electrical functions that require a greatdeal of electrical current when the engine is notrunning.
Using ignition mode I whenever possible con-sumes less electrical current.
Functions that require a great deal of electricalcurrent include:
•the climate system blower
•headlights
•wipers
•infotainment system (especially at high vol-ume).
If the battery's charge level is low, a text messagewill appear in the instrument panel. The vehicle'senergy-saving function will then turn off orreduce certain functions that are currently con-suming electrical current.
If the battery needs to be recharged, start theengine and let it idle for at least 15 minutes ordrive the vehicle (driving charges the batteryfaster than letting the engine idle).

WARNING
•Never use more than one floor mat at atime on the driver's floor. Before driving,remove the original mat from the driver'sseat floor before using any other type offloor mat. Any mat used in this positionshould be securely and properly anchoredin the attaching pins. An extra mat on thedriver's floor can cause the acceleratorand/or brake pedal to catch. Check thatthe movement of these pedals is notimpeded.
•Volvo's floor mats are specially manufac-tured for your car. They must be firmlysecured in the clips on the floor so thatthey cannot slide and become trappedunder the pedals on the driver's side.
During normal starts, the electric motor is priori-tized and the gasoline engine will not start. Thismeans that when the start knob has been turnedtoward START and released, the electric motor isactivated ("started") and the vehicle is ready tobe driven. The warning and information symbolsin the instrument panel will go out and thechosen theme will be displayed to indicate thatthe electric motor has been activated.
However, in certain situations, such as in coldweather or if the hybrid battery is not sufficientlycharged, the gasoline engine will start instead.
NOTE
The vehicle cannot be started if the hybridbattery is discharged.
Back-up reader in the tunnel console
If Vehicle key not found is displayed in theinstrument panel, place the remote key in theback-up reader in the tunnel console (see theillustration) and try again to start the engine.
NOTE
When the remote key is in the back-upreader, be sure there are no other metallicobjects (e.g., other keys, coins, cell phones) inthe cup holder. This could affect the back-upreader's function.
If Vehicle start System check, wait is dis-played in the instrument panel when you try to
start the vehicle, wait until the message is nolonger displayed and try to start again.
CAUTION
If the engine does not start after the third try,wait for approximately 3 minutes before tryingto start it again to give the battery time torecover its starting capacity.
WARNING
•Always remove the remote key from thepassenger compartment when leaving thevehicle and ensure that the ignition inmode 0.
•On vehicles with the optional PassiveEntry, never remove the remote key fromthe vehicle while it is being driven ortowed.
•Always place the gear selector in Parkand apply the parking brake before leav-ing the vehicle. Never leave the vehicleunattended with the engine running.
•Always open garage doors fully beforestarting the engine inside a garage toensure adequate ventilation. The exhaustgases contain carbon monoxide, which isinvisible and odorless but very poisonous.

NOTE
After a cold start, idle speed may be noticea-bly higher than normal for a short period. Thisis done to help bring components in theemission control system to their normal oper-ating temperature as quickly as possible,which enables them to control emissions andhelp reduce the vehicle's impact on the envi-ronment.
CAUTION
•When starting in cold weather, the auto-matic transmission may shift up at slightlyhigher engine speeds than normal untilthe automatic transmission fluid reachesnormal operating temperature.
•Do not race a cold engine immediatelyafter starting. Oil flow may not reachsome lubrication points fast enough toprevent engine damage.
•The engine should be idling when youmove the gear selector. Never accelerateuntil after you feel the transmissionengage. Accelerating immediately afterselecting a gear will cause harsh engage-ment and premature transmission wear.
•Selecting P or N when idling at a stand-still for prolonged periods of time will helpprevent overheating of the automatictransmission fluid.
