WARNING
Please be aware that there is no sound fromthe engine when the vehicle is being poweredby the electric motor and it may be difficult todetect by children, pedestrians, cyclists andanimals. This is especially true at low speeds.
High-voltage electrical current WARNING
A number of electrical components in theXC90 T8 Twin Engine Plug-in Hybrid usehigh-voltage current and can be extremelydangerous if handled incorrectly. These com-ponents and any orange wiring in the vehiclemay only be handled by trained and qualifiedVolvo service technicians.
Hybrid-unique functions
Drive modes
Different drive modes can be selected while driv-ing, e.g., electric power only or a combination ofelectric and gasoline power. The vehicle calcu-lates the optimal combination of drivability, drivingexperience, environmental impact and fuel econ-omy for the selected drive mode. See also thearticle "Drive modes" for additional information.
Instrument panel
In certain driving situations, hybrid-unique infor-mation may be displayed in the instrument panel,such as: a hybrid battery gauge (current chargelevel), the current drive mode, a symbol that illu-minates when the gasoline engine is being used,a Hybrid Guide and the level of energy regenera-tion.
Preconditioning
In order to function optimally, the hybrid battery(and its related electrical systems) and the gaso-line engine (and its drive systems) should be atthe correct operating temperature. The hybridbattery's capacity is reduced considerably if it is
too cold or hot. Preconditioning prepares thevehicle's drive systems and passenger compart-ment before the vehicle is driven to help reducewear and energy consumption.
Charging the hybrid battery
CAUTION
Never connect the charging cable if there is arisk of thunderstorms/lightning.
The XC90 T8 Twin Engine Plug-in Hybrid uses alithium-ion battery that can be charged in severalways:
•A charging cable can be connected from thevehicle to a 110-volt AC socket. Chargingtime depends on the strength of the current.
•When the brakes are applied lightly, the elec-tric motor is used for engine braking, duringwhich the vehicle's kinetic energy is conver-ted into electric current that is used to helprecharge the hybrid battery.
•The hybrid battery is also recharged to a cer-tain extent when the gasoline engine is inoperation.

102
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.

High and low beam headlights
If the ignition is in mode II or when the engine isstarted, the low beams are activated automati-
cally if the lighting ring is in position . Indark conditions, the low beams will also be on if
the lighting ring is in the position.

High beam flash
Continuous high beams
High beam flash
Pull the lever slightly toward the steering wheel.The high beams illuminate until the lever isreleased.
Continuous high beams
Continuous high beams are available if the light-
ing ring is turned to 9 or . Toggle tohigh beams by moving the lever forward. Returnto low beams by moving the lever toward thesteering wheel.
The symbol will illuminate in the instrumentpanel when the high beams are on.
Active high beams
The active high beam system uses a camera atthe upper edge of the windshield to detect theheadlights of oncoming vehicles or the taillightsof a vehicle directly ahead. When this happens,the headlights will automatically switch from highbeams to low beams.
When the camera no longer detects anapproaching vehicle or one that is ahead, yourheadlights will switch back to high beams.
Vehicles with halogen headlights 10
When the camera no longer detects the head-lights of an approaching vehicle or the taillightsof a vehicle ahead, your headlights will switchback to high beams after several seconds.
Operation
Activate/deactivate this function by turning the
lighting ring past the position to .
When released, the ring will automatically return
to the position.
If the active high beam function has not beenactivated, switching between high and low beamsmust be done manually.
A white symbol () in the instrument panelindicates that the function has been activated.
When the high beams are on, the symbol willchange to blue.
NOTE
•Keep the windshield in front of the cam-era free of ice, snow, dirt, etc.
•Do not mount or in any way attach any-thing on the windshield that couldobstruct the camera.
If a message is displayed in the instru-ment panel saying that active highbeams are temporarily unavailable,switching between high and low beamswill have to be done manually. However, the light
switch can remain in the position. Thesame applies if a message saying that the wind-shield sensors are blocked and the symbol above

Possible positions
The steering wheel's height and reach can beadjusted. To do so:
1.Push the lever down to release the steeringwheel.
2. Adjust the steering wheel to a suitable posi-tion.
3. Pull back the lever to lock the steering wheelin place. If the lever is difficult to pull intoplace, press the steering wheel lightly at thesame time as you pull the lever.
WARNING
Never adjust the steering wheel while driving.
If the vehicle is equipped with the optionalspeed-dependent power steering, the level ofsteering force can be adjusted. The force level isadjusted according to the vehicle's speed.
