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.

0387 Passenger compartment blower
The passenger compartment blower may start
automatically during a period of up to approx-
imately 50 minutes after the ignition has been
turned off to remove condensation in the A/C
evaporator. It will run for 15 minutes and switch
off automatically.

AUTO
This function automatically reg-
ulates the Electronic Climate
Control system so that the
selected temperatures are
maintained. The blower, heat-
ing, air distribution (air flow), air
conditioning, and optional air quality sensor
are controlled. If you prefer to manually set any
of these functions, the remaining functions will
still be controlled automatically. Pressing the
AUTObutton overrides any settings that were
previously made manually.
Rear window and door mirror defrosters
This function defrosts/de-ices
the rear window and door mir-
rors. The LED in the switch will
light up to indicate that the
heating function is engaged.
See page 66 for additional
information on this function.
NOTE
Never use ice scrapers made of metal as
they can easily scratch the mirror surface.
Temperature
These controls are used to indi-
vidually set the temperature for
both sides of the passenger
compartment. Please note that
the compartment will not be
heated or cooled faster by set-
ting the temperature higher or lower than nec-
essary.

PressAUTO to automatically regulate air flow
or press any combination of the controls
shown in the illustration to manually adjust air
flow. An LED in the switch will light up if an air
flow control has been pressed.Heated front seats (option)•
Press the switch once for maximum seat
heating. Both LEDs in the switch will be lit.
•
Press the switch a second time for comfort

Press the switch to turn the air
conditioning on or off. The
"ON" or "OFF" LED will light up
to indicate if the system is
switched on or off. Other func-
tions will still be regulated auto-
matically (if the AUTO switch is on).
•
The air conditioning functions only at tem-
peratures above 32 °F (0 °C).
•
While the Defroster function is selected,
the air conditioning is temporarily activated
to dehumidify the air, even if you have man-
ually switched the air conditioning off. This
will only function if the blower is not
switched off.
Recirculation

recirculation function (air in the
passenger compartment recir-
culates - no fresh air enters the
compartment). The LED in the
switch will light up to indicate
that the function is engaged.
MANAUT€
Use this function if the outside air is con-
taminated with exhaust gases, smoke, etc
or to heat/cool the vehicle quickly.
€
Recirculation should not be used for more
than 15 minutes. If your windows begin to

Timer mode activation: (vehicles with the
Interior Air Quality system have no timer
mode) Press and hold the recirculation but-
ton for at least 3 seconds to activate a
recirculation timer mode. The amber LED
in the recirculation button will flash 5 times
to show that the timer mode is being acti-
vated. In timer mode, each time the recir-
culation button is pressed, the climate
control system will recirculate the air in the
passenger compartment for 5-12 minutes,
depending on the outside air temperature,
and then revert back to fresh air.
•
Timer mode deactivation: Press and hold
the recirculation button for 3 seconds. The
amber LED in the recirculation button will
illuminate steadily for 5 seconds to show a
return to "normal" mode.
•
In normal mode, when the recirculation
button is pressed, the climate control sys-
tem will recirculate the air in the passenger
compartment until the recirculation button
is pressed again.
•
Timer mode memory: If the vehicle is
turned off while timer mode is active, timer
mode will still be active when the vehicle is
restarted.
Interior air quality sensor (option)
Some vehicles are equipped
with a multifilter and air quality
sensor. The filter separates
gases and particles, thereby
reducing the amounts of odors
and contaminants entering the
vehicle. The air quality sensor detects
increased levels of contaminants in the outside
air. When the air quality sensor detects conta-
minated outside air, the air intake closes and
the air inside the passenger compartment is
recirculated, i.e. no outside air enters the vehi-
cle. The filter also cleans recirculated passen-
ger compartment air.
MANAUTWhen the ECC system is in the AUTO mode,
the green LED in the button will be on.Operation±
PressAUTO to operate the air quality sen-
sor (normal setting).

±
Select one of the following three functions
by pressing the recirculation button 1, 2 or
3 times.
1.
The AUT LED lights. The air quality sensor
is now activated.2. No LED lights. Recirculation is not acti-
vated unless needed to cool the passenger
compartment in a warm climate.
3.
TheMAN LED lights. Recirculation is now
activated.
Keep in mind the following•
Make it a rule to have the air quality sensor
activated at all times.
•
Recirculation is limited in cold climates to
avoid fogging.
•
If window fogging occurs, you should
deactivate the air quality sensor.
•
If fogging occurs, use the defroster func-
tions for the windshield, side windows and
rear window, see page 66.
The filter should be changed at the intervals
recommended in the service schedule. How-
ever, if the vehicle is used in a severely conta-
minated environment, it may be necessary to
change the filter more frequently.
