seat backrests.
WARNING!
The SIPS airbag system is a supplement to the structural Side Impact Protection System and the three-point seat
belt system. It is not designed to deploy during collisions from the front or rear of the vehicle or in rollover
situations.
The use of seat covers on the front seats may impede SIPS airbag deployment.
No objects, accessory equipment or stickers may be placed on, attached to or installed near the SIPS airbag
system or in the area affected by SIPS airbag deployment.
Never try to open or repair any components of the SIPS airbag system. This should be done only by a trained and
qualified Volvo service technician.
In order for the SIPS airbag to provide its best protection, both front seat occupants should sit in an upright
position with the seat belt properly fastened.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in injury to the occupants of the vehicle in the event of an accident.

Volvo Inflatable Curtain (VIC)
This system consists of inflatable curtains located along the sides of the 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
occupants of the front seats and the occupant of the outboard rear seating positions in certain side impact collisions.
In certain side impacts, both the Inflatable Curtain (VIC) and the Side Impact Airbag System (SIPS-bag) will deploy,
whereas, in some cases, only the Inflatable Curtain (VIC) will deploy. In cases where both the VIC and the SIPS -bag
deploy, this will occur simultaneously.
NOTE: If the inflatable curtain deploys, it remains inflated for approximately 3 seconds.
WARNING!
The VIC system is a supplement to the Side Impact Protection System. It is not designed to deploy during
collisions from the front or rear of the vehicle or in rollover situations.
Never try to open or repair any components of the VIC system. This should be done only by a trained and
qualified Volvo service technician.

The mirrors should always be adjusted prior to driving. Objects seen in the passenger's side wide -angle sideview
mirror are closer than they appear to be.
Remote central locking and sideview mirror memory-option
If you lock the vehicle and later unlock it with the same remote control and open the driver's door, the sideview
mirrors (and the driver's seat) will automatically move to the position they were in when you left the vehicle. This
feature will work in the same way with all of the remote control transmitters (up to 3) that you use with your vehicle.
This feature will not function if you lock your vehicle with the key.
Water repellent glass-option on certain models
The side door windows can be treated with a water repellent coating. The symbol to the left indicates
these windows have this coating. The optional laminated side windows always have this coating.
The coating improves vision by causing the water to run off quickly.
See page 163
for information on cleaning this type of glass.
CAUTION!
Use only suitable plastic scrapers to remove ice or snow from the windows. Using a metal ice scraper could damage
the water repellent coating.

Manual open: Pull the switch rearward to position 3 and hold it until the moonroof has opened to the position of your
choice.
Auto open: Pull the switch as far back as possible (position 4) and release it to automatically slide open the moonroof
to the "comfort"
1 position. Pull the switch rearward again to open the moonroof completely.
Manual close: Push the switch to position 2 and hold it until the moonroof has closed completely or to the position of
your choice.
Auto close: Push the switch forward as far as possible (position 1) and release it to automatically close the moonroof.
CAUTION!
- Remove ice and snow before opening the moonroof.
- Do not operate the moonroof if it is frozen closed.
- Never place heavy objects on the moonroof.
WARNING!
Never open/close the moonroof it is obstructed in any way when in operation.
Never allow a child to operate the moonroof.
Never extend any object or body part through the open moonroof, even if the vehicle's ignition is completely
switched off.
Never leave a child alone in a vehicle.
1. A position where the moonroof is not quite fully open, which helps alleviate "rumbling" wind noise.

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 conditions. 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 temperature sensor in the ECC control panel should
not be covered in any way as this could cause incorrect information to be sent to the ECC system.
Parking the vehicle in warm weather
If your vehicle has been parked in the sun in warm weather, opening the windows and moonroof (option) for several
minutes before driving will help release the warm air from the passenger compartment. When the engine is running,
close the windows and moonroof and use the recirculation function for several minutes to enable the air conditioning
to cool the compartment as quickly as possible.
Windows and optional moonroof
The ECC system will function best if the windows and optional moonroof are 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 acceleration.

Automatic re-locking
If the doors are unlocked, the locks will automatically reengage (re-lock) and the alarm will rearm after 2 minutes
unless a door or the trunk has been opened. This helps prevent the car from inadvertently being left unlocked.

WARNING!
Never use the transmitter to lock the doors from inside the vehicle. Doing so would ACTIVATE:
the break-in alarm, which would sound if one of the doors were opened
the optional interior motion and inclination alarm sensors. Doing so would DEACTIVATE:
the moonroof and interior courtesy light controls.
the central locking buttons on the front door armrests, although the interior door handles would still function to
allow occupants to leave the vehicle.
Disabled features would remain disabled until the remote is used again to unlock the vehicle.
In addition, locking an occupied vehicle would hinder rapid access to the occupants in an accident or emergency.

Replacing the battery in the remote control
If the range of the transmitter is noticeably reduced, this indicates that the battery is weak and should be replaced.
