WARNING!
l Never drive with the airbags deployed. The fact that they hang out can i\
mpair the steering of your
car. Other safety systems can also be damaged. The smoke and dust formed\
when the airbags are
deployed can cause skin and eye irritation in the event of prolonged exp\
osure.
l If your car has been subjected to flood conditions (e.g. soaked carpeti\
ng/standing water on the floor
of the vehicle) or if your car has become flood-damaged in any way, do \
not attempt to start the
vehicle or put the key in the ignition before disconnecting the battery.\
This may cause airbag
deployment which could result in personal injury. Have the car towed to \
an authorized Volvo retailer
for repairs.



pg. 9 Volvo Inflatable Curtain (VIC)


Volvo Inflatable Curtain (VIC)
This system consists of inflatable curtains located along the sides of t\
he roof liners, stretching from the
center of both front side windows to the rear edge of the rear side door\
windows. It is designed to help
protect the heads of the occupant of the front seat and the occupant of \
the outboard rear seat position in
certain side impact collisions.
NOTE: IC system deployment occurs only on the side of the vehicle affected by \
the impact.
In certain side impacts, BOTH the Inflatable Curtain (IC) and the Side Impact Airbag System (SIPS-\
bag) will deploy, whereas, in some cases, ONLY the Inflatable Curtain (IC) will deploy. In cases where
BOTH the IC and the SIPS-bag deploy, deployment will occur simultaneously.

pg. 47 Climate control system - general information
Condensation on the inside of the windows
Keeping the insides of the windows clean will help reduce the amount of \
condensation that forms on the
windows. Use a commercial window cleaning agent to clean the windows.
Ice and snow
Always keep the air intake grille at the base of the windshield free of \
snow.
Cabin air filter
Replace the cabin air filter with a new one at the recommended intervals\
. Please refer to your Warranty
and Service Records Information booklet, or consult your Volvo retailer \
for these intervals. The filter
should be replaced more often when driving under dirty and dusty conditi\
ons. The filter cannot be
cleaned and therefore should always be replaced with a new one.
Sensors
The sunlight sensor on the dashboard and passenger compartment temperatu\
re sensor in the ECC control
panel should not be covered in any way as this could cause incorrect inf\
ormation to be sent to the ECC
system.
Parking the car in warm weather
If your car has been parked in the sun in warm weather, opening the wind\
ows and moonroof (option) for
several minutes before driving will help release the warm air from the p\
assenger compartment. When
the engine is running, close the windows and moonroof and use the recirc\
ulation function for several
minutes to enable the air conditioning to cool the compartment as quickl\
y as possible.

Windows and optional moonroof
The ECC system will function best if the windows and optional moonroof a\
re closed. If you drive with
the moonroof open, we recommend that you manually adjust the temperature\
and blower control (the
LED in the AUTO switch should be off).
Acceleration
The air conditioning is momentarily disengaged during full-throttle acce\
leration.
ECC maintenance
All maintenance on the climate control systems should be carried out by \
an authorized Volvo service
technician only.
Refrigerant
Volvo cares about the environment. The air conditioning system in your c\
ar contains a CFC-free
refrigerant - R134a. This substance will not deplete the ozone layer. Th\
e system contains 2.2 lbs (1000
g) R134a and uses PAG oil.
Passenger compartment blower
Approximately 50 minutes after the ignition is turned off, the blower ma\
y come on automatically, and
run for five minutes, to remove condensation in the A/C evaporator.
