03 ClimateClimate control systems - general information
0386
Condensation on the inside of the
windowsThe defroster function should be used to
remove fog or mist from the inside of the win-
dows. Keeping the windows clean with a com-
mercially available window washing spray will
also help prevent fogging or misting.Ice and snowAlways keep the air intake grille at the base of
the windshield free of snow.Cabin air filterReplace the cabin air filter with a new one at
the recommended intervals. Please refer to
your Warranty and Service Records Informa-
tion booklet, or consult a trained and qualified
Volvo service technician 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.
SensorsThe sunlight sensor on the dashboard and pas-
senger compartment temperature sensor in
the ECC control panel should not be covered
in any way as this could cause incorrect infor-
mation to be sent to the ECC system.Parking the vehicle in warm weatherIf 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 moonroofThe ECC system will function best if the win-
dows 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).
AccelerationThe air conditioning is momentarily disen-
gaged during full-throttle acceleration.Climate control maintenanceSpecial tools and equipment are required to
maintain and carry out repairs on the climate
system. Work of this type should only be done
by a trained and qualified Volvo service tech-
nician.RefrigerantVolvo cares about the environment. The air
conditioning system in your vehicle contains a
CFC-free refrigerant - R134a (HFC134a). This
substance will not deplete the ozone layer. The
system contains 1.5 lbs (700 g) R134a and
uses PAG oil.Climate system blowerThe climate system blower will be automati-
cally switched off when the engine is not run-
ning (even if the ignition key is in position Ior
II) to avoid unnecessary battery drain. To acti-
vate the blower, turn the control to the desired
setting.

WARNING
Keep vehicle doors and the luggage com-
partment 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. Expo-
sure of people to these high temperatures
for even a short period of time can cause
heat-related injury or death. Small children
are particularly at risk.
WARNING
•
When the backrest is returned to the
upright position, check that it is properly
locked in place. Return the head
restraints to the upright position.
•
Long loads should always be securely
anchored to help avoid injury in the
event of a sudden stop.
•
Always turn the engine off and apply the
parking brake when loading/unloading
the vehicle.
•
Place the transmission in the P position
(automatic transmission) to help pre-
vent inadvertent movement of the gear
selector.
•
The vehicle features a 60/40 split fold-
down rear seat. This function is per-
formed by handles inside the trunk, and
also provides a means for children and
adults to enter the passenger compart-
ment in the event they become locked
inside the trunk.
•
Adults are advised to familiarize them-
selves with the operation and location
of the release handles.
•
To fold down the rear seats from inside
the trunk, pull the release control han-
dles located on either side of the trunk.

05 Locks and alarmKeys
05108
G030179
Your vehicle is equipped with two coded
remote control transmitters with integrated
ignition key blades called Key Integrated
Remote (KIR)
1.
To unlock/lock the vehicle using the key blade:
•
Insert the key blade in the driver's door lock
and turn it once to unlock the driver's door
only.
•
Turn the key blade again (within 10 sec-
onds) to unlock all doors and the trunk.
•
Turn the key blade once in the opposite
direction to lock all doors and the trunk.
WARNING
If the doors are locked while driving, this
may hinder rapid access to the occupants
of the vehicle in the event of an accident.
(Also see the information about "Child
safety locks" on page 114.
NOTE
To help prevent accidentally locking the
keys in the vehicle, the central locking sys-
tem is designed to unlock the doors imme-
diately if the key is left in the ignition switch,
the vehicle is locked using the lock button
on the door and the door is then closed. A
sound from the lock will be audible at this
time.
Please note that this function will not unlock
the doors if the engine is running.Immobilizer (start inhibitor)Each of the keys supplied with your vehicle
contains a coded transmitter. The code in the
key is transmitted to an antenna in the ignition
switch where it is compared to the code stored
in the start inhibitor module. The vehicle will
start only with a properly coded key.
Each key has a unique code, which your Volvo
retailer uses if new keys are required. A maxi-mum of six remote controls/keys can be pro-
grammed and used for one vehicle.
If you misplace a key, take the other keys to an
authorized Volvo retailer for reprogramming as
an antitheft measure.

NOTE
•
If an airbag deploys, your vehicle's SRS
control module will attempt to automat-
ically unlock all doors.
•
The keys may also be used to lock and
unlock the doors, and to activate and
deactivate the alarm system.
•
To avoid leaving your keys in the vehi-
cle, make a habit of always locking the
vehicle with the remote control.
•
If the key blade section of the remote is
not fully folded out when starting the
vehicle, the immobilizer function may
make it impossible to start the engine.
•
The vehicle can be locked even if a door
is open. When the door(s) are closed,
they will be locked. Please be aware
that the keys could be locked in the car
when this is done.
Automatic re-lockingIf the doors are unlocked, the locks will auto-
matically 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 inclina-
tion 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.
