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 the control 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
fuel remaining in the tank. This calculation is based on average fuel
consumption during the last 12 miles (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
computer 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
taken once per second. When the car 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 speed 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 the
car’s current speed from km/h to mph.

RBDS functions
Radio Broadcast Data
System - RBDS
This feature, which may not be available in
your area, functions only with FM broadcasts.
The radio in your car is equipped with an
advanced system allowing information from
broadcasters to be transmitted visually, as text,
together with the audio signal. This informa-
tion is then decoded by the radio and made
available for several new and unique features.
The RBDS or Radio Broadcast Data System
operates in the FM band only, and the
information transmitted is supplied exclusively
by participating broadcasters. Volvo has no
control over the accuracy of the data or
information.
Coverage by local broadcasters may be limited
at this time, but as the technology and benefits
grow, you will find the radio in your car is
equipped to take advantage of this system.
PI (Program Information) Seek:
When an FM station has been stored as a
preset, the radio also stores RBDS program
information if it is available. When the preset
is selected at a later time, the radio tries to
access updated program information. In weak
signal areas, there may be a delay before the
station becomes audible. During this delay, “PI
seek” will be displayed and there will be no
sound.
PI seek can be interrupted by pressing EXIT.
Radio text
Certain RBDS stations broadcast program
information, which can be shown in the
display. The text will be shown twice in the
display.
To start this function:
Press the FM button for several seconds.
To deactivate this function:
Press EXIT briefly.

Accessory Installation – Important Warning
•We strongly recommend that Volvo owners install only genuine,
Volvo-approved accessories, and that accessory installations be
performed only by the factory-trained technicians at your authorized
Volvo retailer.
•Genuine Volvo accessories are tested to ensure compatibility with the
performance, safety, and emission systems in your car. Additionally,
your authorized Volvo retailer knows where accessories may and may
not be safely installed in your Volvo. In all cases, please consult your
authorized Volvo retailer before installing any accessory in or on your
car.
•Accessories that have not been approved by Volvo may or may not be
specifically tested for compatibility with your car. Additionally, an
inexperienced installer may not be familiar with some of your car’s
systems.
•Any of your car’s performance and safety systems could be adversely
affected if you install accessories that Volvo has not tested, or if you
allow accessories to be installed by someone unfamiliar with your car.
•Damage caused by unapproved or improperly installed accessories
may not be covered by your new car warranty. See your Warranty
and Service Records Information booklet for more warranty informa-
tion. Volvo assumes no responsibility for death, injury, or expenses
that may result from the installation of non-genuine accessories.
Driver Distraction
•Driver distraction results from driver activities that are not directly
related to controlling the car in the driving environment. Your new
Volvo is, or can be, equipped with many feature-rich entertainment
and communication systems. These include hands-free cellular
telephones, navigation systems, and multipurpose audio systems.
You may also own other portable electronic devices for your own
convenience. When used properly and safely, they enrich the driving
experience. Improperly used, any of these could cause a distraction.
•For all of these systems, we want to provide the following warning
that reflects the strong Volvo concern for your safety:
•Never use these devices or any feature of your vehicle in a way that
distracts you from the task of driving safely. Distraction can lead to a
serious accident.
•In addition to this general warning, we offer the following guidance
regarding specific newer features that may be found in your vehicle:
•Never use a hand-held cellular telephone while driving. Some
jurisdictions prohibit cellular telephone use by a driver while the
vehicle is moving.
•If your car is equipped with a navigation system, set and make
changes to your travel itinerary only with the vehicle parked.
•Never program your audio system while the vehicle is moving.
Program radio presets with the vehicle parked, and use your pro-
grammed presets to make radio use quicker and simpler.
•Never use portable computers or personal digital assistants while the
vehicle is moving.
A driver has a responsibility to do everything possible to ensure his or\
her own safety and the safety of passengers in the vehicle and others
sharing the roadway. Avoiding distractions is part of that responsibility.
