Trip computer controls and functions.
The four* trip computer functions can be accessed by twisting control B \
one step at a time in either
direction. Twisting a fifth** time returns you to the original function.\
The trip computer can be reset (current data will be erased from system\
memory) by pressing RESET
(button C).
1. Driving distance on current fuel reserve
This function shows the approximate distance that can be driven on the f\
uel remaining in the tank. This
calculation is based on average fuel consumption during the last 12 mile\
s (20 km) of driving and the
amount of fuel remaining in the tank when the reading was taken.
When the driving distance on current fuel reserve is less than 12 miles \
(20 km), "----" will be displayed
in the text window.
2. Average fuel consumption
This value indicates fuel consumption since the last time the trip compu\
ter was reset (by pressing
RESET, button C). When the engine is switched off, information on fuel \
consumption is stored and
remains in system memory until the RESET (button C) is pressed again.
3. Current fuel consumption
This value indicates the current fuel consumption, based on readings tak\
en once per second. When the
vehicle is not moving, "----" will be displayed.
4. Average speed
This value indicates average speed since the last time the trip computer\
was reset (by pressing RESET,
button C). When the engine is switched off, information on average spee\
d is stored and remains in
system memory until the RESET (button C) is pressed again.
5. Current speed in miles per hour (Canadian models only)
This function provides the driver with an instantaneous conversion of th\
e vehicle's current speed from
km/h to mph.
NOTE: Trip computer readings may vary slightly depending on the circumference\
of the tires on the
vehicle.
* Five functions on Canadian models

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 recirculat\
ion function for several minutes to
enable the air conditioning to cool the compartment as quickly as possib\
le.
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.
Climate control 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 v\
ehicle contains a CFC-free
refrigerant - R134a (HFC134a). This substance will not deplete the ozo\
ne layer. The 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 seven minutes, to remove condensation in the A/C evaporator.
Blower function to reduce battery drain
The climate system's blower functions normally while the engine is runni\
ng.
However, when the engine is switched off (even if the ignition is switc\
hed to positions I or II), the blower
control will be automatically switched off to avoid unnecessary battery \
drain.
The following points pertain if the ignition key is on but the engine is not running:
l To restart the blower, turn the control knob to the setting of your choi\
ce.
l After approximately 2 minutes, the blower speed will be reduced to avoid\
battery drain.
You can reset the blower speed at any time. Please be aware that the sys\
tem has been designed to reduce the
blower's speed again after 2 minutes, until the engine is started. If th\
e battery becomes drained:
l LOW BATTERY, FAN IS REDUCED will be displayed in the text window in the \
instrument panel.
l The yellow warning light in the instrument panel (see page 27) will also light up.
