01 Safety
Volvo Inflatable Curtain (VIC)
0129
G027218
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 posi-
tions in certain side impact collisions.
In certain side impacts, both the Inflatable Cur-
tain (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 simultane-
ously.
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 compo-
nents of the VIC system. This should be
done only by a trained and qualified
Volvo service technician.
•
Never hang heavy items from the ceiling
handles. This could impede deployment
of the Inflatable curtain.
WARNING
In order for the VIC to provide its best pro-
tection, both front seat occupants and both
outboard rear seat occupants should sit in
an upright position with the seat belt prop-
erly fastened; adults using the seat belt and
children using the proper child restraint sys-
tem. Only adults should sit in the front seats.
Children must never be allowed in the front
passenger seat. See 33 for guidelines.
Failure to follow these instructions can
result in injury to the vehicle occupants in an
accident.

To operate the moonroof, turn the ignition key
to position I or II, or start the engine. The moon-
roof can be operated in two ways:
Tilt positionSliding moonroof
Tilt positionOpen: With the moonroof closed, push up the
rear edge of the switch (position 5 in the illus-
tration in the center column).
Close: Pull down and hold the rear edge of the
switch (position 6 in the illustration in the centercolumn) until the moonroof has closed com-
pletely.
G027010
Sliding moonroofManual open: Pull the switch rearward to posi-
tion 3 and hold it until the moonroof has
opened to the position of your choice.
Auto open: Pull the switch as far back as pos-
sible (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 com-
pletely or to the position of your choice.
Auto close: Push the switch forward as far as
possible (position 1) and release it to automat-
ically close the moonroof.
CAUTION
•
Remove ice and snow before opening
the moonroof.
•
Do not operate the moonroof if it is fro-
zen closed.
•
Never place heavy objects on the
moonroof.WARNING
•
Never open/close the moonroof it is
obstructed in any way when in opera-
tion.
•
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.
1A position where the moonroof is not quite fully open, which helps alleviate "rumbling" wind noise.

Sun visorThe optional moonroof also features a sliding
sun visor. The visor slides open automatically
when the moonroof is opened. The visor must
be closed manually.
WARNING
The moonroof must never be obstructed in
any way when in operation.
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.

tion is subject to the following condi-
tions: (1) this device may not cause
interference, and (2) this device must
accept any interference, including inter-
ference that may cause undesired oper-
ation of the device.
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.
