General Information
pg. 2 Introduction
Shiftlock
When your car is parked, the gear selector is locked in the (P)ark position. To release the selector from this position,
turn the ignition key to position II (or start the engine), depress the brake pedal, press the button on the front side of the
gear selector and move the selector from (P)ark.
Keylock
When the ignition is switched off, the gear selector must be in the (P)ark position before the key can be removed from
the ignition switch.
Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)
The ABS system in your car performs a self -diagnostic test when the vehicle first reaches the speed of approximately
12 mph (20 km/h). The brake pedal will pulsate several times and a sound may be audible from the ABS control
module. This is normal.
Fuel filler door
Press the button on the light switch panel when the car is at a standstill to open the fuel filler door.
Fuel filler cap
After refueling, close the fuel filler cap by turning it clockwise until it clicks into place. If this cap is not closed tightly
or if the engine is running when the car is refueled, the Malfunction Indicator Lamp ("Check Engine" light) may
indicate a fault.
Points to keep in mind
Before you operate your vehicle for the first time, please familiarize yourself with the new-engine oil consumption
information on page 191
. You should also be familiar with the information found in the chapters "Instruments and
controls," and "Starting and driving."
Information contained in the balance of the manual is extremely useful and should be read after operating the vehicle
for the first time.
The manual is structured so that it can be used for reference. For this reason, it should be kept in the vehicle for
ready access.
Do not export your Volvo to another country before investigating that country's applicable safety and emission
control requirements. In some cases it may be difficult or impossible to comply with these requirements. Modifications
to the emission control system(s) may render your Volvo not certifiable for legal operation in the U.S., Canada and
other countries.

Attempting to start the car
If damage to the car is minor and there is no fuel leakage, you may attempt to start the car. To do so:
Remove the ignition key.
Reinsert the key in the ignition switch. The car will then attempt to reset COLLISION STATUS to normal status.
Try to start the car.
Moving the car
If the electrical system is able to reset system status to normal (CRASH STATUS SEE MANUAL will no longer be
shown in the display), the car may be moved carefully from its present position, if for example, it is blocking traffic. It
should, however, not be moved farther than is absolutely necessary.
WARNING!
Even if the car appears to be drivable after COLLISION STATUS has been set, it should not be driven or towed
(pulled by another vehicle). There may be concealed damage that could make it difficult or impossible to control.
The car should be transported on a flatbed tow truck to a trained and qualified Volvo service technician for
inspection/repairs.

Make sure the child restraint system is approved for the child's height, weight and development - the label required
by the standard or regulation, or instructions for infant restraints, typically provide this information.
In using any child restraint system, we urge you to carefully look over the instructions that are provided with the
restraint. Be sure you understand them and can use the device properly and safely in this vehicle. A misused child
restraint system can result in increased injuries for both the infant or child and other occupants in the vehicle.
When a child has outgrown the child safety seat, you should use the rear seat with the standard seat belt fastened. The
best way to help protect the child here is to place the child on a cushion so that the seat belt is properly located on the
hips. Legislation in your state or province may mandate the use of a child seat or cushion in combination with the seat
belt, depending on the child's age and/or size. Please check local regulations.
A specially designed and tested booster cushion (not available in Canada) can be obtained from your Volvo retailer for
children weighing 33 - 80 lb. (15 - 36 kg) and 38-54 inches (97 - 137 cm) in height.
pg. 29 Safety
Child safety
WARNING!
Do not use child safety seats or child booster cushions/backrests in the front passenger's seat. We also recommend
that children under 4 feet 7 inches (140 cm) in height who have outgrown these devices sit in the rear seat with the
seat belt fastened.
Keep vehicle doors and trunk locked and keep keys out of a child's reach. Unsupervised children could lock
themselves in an open trunk and risk injury. Children should be taught not to play in vehicles.
On hot days, the temperature in the trunk or vehicle interior can rise very quickly. Exposure to these high
temperatures for even a short period of time can cause heat-related injury or death. Small children are particularly at
risk.
ISOFIX/LATCH anchors
Lower anchors for ISOFIX-equipped child seats are located in the rear seats, hidden below the backrest cushions.
Symbols on the seat back upholstery mark the anchor positions as shown. To access the anchors, kneel on the seat
cushion and locate the anchors by feel. Always follow your child seat manufacturer's installation instructions.
