•
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±

sor (normal setting).
or
±
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.

05 Locks and alarm
Remote control
05``109
Your vehicle is equipped with two coded
remote control transmitters with integrated
ignition keys called Key Integrated Remote
(KIR).
The remote control transmitters will also acti-
vate or allow "keyless" entry into the passenger
compartment or the trunk. These transmitters
use a radio frequency that will enable you to
lock/unlock all doors and the trunk from a dis-
tance of 10 – 15 feet (3 – 5 meters). They will
also activate or deactivate your vehicle's alarm
system(s). The vehicle can also be locked/
unlocked with the key.
If one of the transmitters is misplaced, a
replacement can be purchased from your near-
est authorized Volvo retailer.

08 Car care
Washing and cleaning the vehicle
08``177
NOTE
When washing the vehicle, remember to
remove dirt from the drain holes in the doors
and sills
WARNING
When the vehicle is driven immediately after
being washed, apply the brakes several
times in order to remove any moisture from
the brake linings.
Engine cleaning agents should not be used
when the engine is warm. This constitutes a
fire risk.Automatic washing - simple and quick•
We do NOT recommend washing your
vehicle in an automatic wash during the
first six months (because the paint will not
have hardened sufficiently).
•
An automatic wash is a simple and quick
way to clean your vehicle, but it is worth
remembering that it may not be as thor-
ough as when you yourself go over the
vehicle with sponge and water. Keeping
the underbody clean is most important,
especially in the winter. Some automatic
washers do not have facilities for washing
the underbody.
•
Before driving into an automatic vehicle
wash, make sure that side view mirrors,auxiliary lamps, etc, are secure, and that
any antenna(s) are retracted or removed.
Otherwise there is risk of the machine dis-
lodging them.
Exterior lightingCondensation may form temporarily on the
inside of the lenses of exterior lights such as
headlights, fog lights, or tail lights. This is nor-
mal and the lights are designed to withstand
moisture. Normally, condensation will dissi-
pate after the lights have been on for a short
time.Polishing and waxing•
Normally, polishing is not required during
the first year after delivery, however, wax-
ing may be beneficial.
•
Before applying polish or wax the vehicle
must be washed and dried. Tar spots can
be removed with kerosene or tar remover.
Difficult spots may require a fine rubbing
compound.
•
After polishing use liquid or paste wax.
•
Several commercially available products
contain both polish and wax.
•
Waxing alone does not substitute for pol-
ishing a dull surface.
•
A wide range of polymer-based vehicle
waxes can be purchased today. Thesewaxes are easy to use and produce a long-
lasting, high-gloss finish that protects the
bodywork against oxidation, road dirt and
fading.
•
Do not polish or wax your vehicle in direct
sunlight (the surface of the vehicle should
not be warmer than 113 ° F (45 ° C).CAUTION
Volvo does not recommend the use of long-
life or durable paint protection coatings,
some of which may claim to prevent pitting,
fading, oxidation, etc. These coatings have
not been tested by Volvo for compatibility
with your vehicle's clear coat. Some of them
may cause the clear coat to soften, crack,
or cloud. Damage caused by application of
paint protection coatings may not be cov-
ered under your vehicle's paint warranty.Cleaning the upholsteryFabricClean with soapy water or a detergent. For
more difficult spots caused by oil, ice cream,
shoe polish, grease, etc., use a clothing/fabric
stain remover. Consult your Volvo retailer.Interior plastic componentsCleaning interior plastic components should
be done with a cleaning agent specially

09 Maintenance and servicing

185 Owner maintenance
Periodic maintenance requirements and inter-
vals are described in your vehicle's Warranty
and Service Records Information booklet.
The following points can be carried out
between the normally scheduled maintenance
services.Each time the vehicle is refueled:•
Check the engine oil level
•
Clean the windshield, windshield wipers,
headlights, and tail lights
Monthly:•
Check cold tire pressure in all tires. Inspect
the tires for wear.
•
Check that engine coolant and other fluid
levels are between the indicated "min" and
"max" markings.
•
Clean interior glass surfaces with a glass
cleaner and soft paper towels.
•
Wipe driver information displays with a soft
cloth.
•
Visually inspect battery terminals for cor-
rosion. Corrosion may indicate a loose ter-
minal connector, or a battery near the end
of its useful service life. Consult a trained
and qualified Volvo service technician for
additional information.
As needed:•
Wash the vehicle, including the undercar-
riage, to reduce wear that can be caused
by a buildup of dirt, and corrosion that can
be caused by salt residues.
•
Clean leaves and twigs from air intake
vents at the base of the windshield, and
from other places where they may collect.NOTE

technicians is available online for purchase
