All power windows can be operated using the
control panel in the driver's door. The controlpanels in the other doors only operate the win-
dow in the respective doors.
For the power windows to function, the ignition
must be in at least mode I. When the vehicle
has been running, the power windows can be
operated for several minutes after the remote
key has been removed from the ignition slot, or
until a door has been opened.
NOTE
•
Movement of the windows will stop if
they are obstructed in any way.
•
To reduce buffeting wind noise if the
rear windows are opened, also open the
front windows slightly.

defrosters
G018377
Use the defroster to quickly remove misting
and ice from the rear window and the door mir-
rors.
Press the button once to start simultaneous
rear window and door mirror defrosting. The
light in the button indicates that the function is
active. Defrosting is deactivated automatically
and its duration is controlled by the outside
temperature.
The rear window is demisted/de-iced automat-
ically if the vehicle is started in an outside tem-
perature lower than 45 °F (7 °C).

IntroductionAir conditioningThe vehicle is equipped with Electronic Climate
Control (ECC). The climate control system
cools, heats or dehumidifies the air in the pas-
senger compartment.
NOTE
•
The air conditioning can be switched
off, but to ensure the best possible cli-
mate comfort in the passenger com-
partment and to prevent the windows
from misting, it should always be on.
•
In warm weather, a small amount of
water may accumulate under the car
when it has been parked. This water is
condensation from the A/C system and
is normal.
Sensor location•
The sunlight sensor is located on the top
side of the dashboard.
NOTE
The sunlight sensor monitors which side of
the car that is most exposed to sunlight.
This can mean that the temperature may
differ between the right and left-side air
vents, even if the temperatures set for both
sides of the passenger compartment are the
same.•
The temperature sensor for the passenger
compartment is located below the climate
control panel.
•
The outside temperature sensor is located
on the door mirror.
•
The humidity sensor (option) is located in
the interior rearview mirror.NOTE
Do not cover or block the sensors with
clothing or other objects.Side windows and moonroofTo ensure that the air conditioning works opti-
mally, the side windows, and the optional
moonroof should be closed.Fog 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.
Vents in the parcel shelf
NOTE
The air vents at the rear of the parcel shelf
should never be obstructed.Temporary shut-off of the air
conditioningThe air conditioning is momentarily disen-
gaged during full-throttle acceleration or when
driving uphill with a trailer. This may result in a
temporary increase in cabin temperature.Ice and snowAlways keep the air intake grille at the base of
the windshield free of snow.Climate system 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 car contains a
CFC-free refrigerant – R134a. This substance
will not deplete the ozone layer. The air condi-

tioning system contains 1.8 lbs (800 g) of
R134a. The systems uses PAG oil.Passenger compartment 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.
NOTE
There are different types of cabin air filters.
Ensure that the correct type is installed.Interior Air Quality System (IAQS)A multifilter helps reduce gases and particles
in the incoming air, thereby reducing the levels
of odors and contaminants entering the vehi-
cle. The air quality sensor detects increased
levels of contaminants in the outside air. When
the air quality sensor detects contaminated
outside air, the air intake closes and the air
inside the passenger compartment is recircu-
lated, i.e. no outside air enters the vehicle. The
filter also cleans recirculated passenger com-
partment air.
NOTE
Contact your Volvo retailer for IAQS air filter
replacement intervals.Menu settingsThe default settings for three of the climate
system's functions can be changed in the
menu system, see page 120:•
Blower speed in automatic mode, see
page 127.
•
Recirculation timer for passenger com-
partment air, see page 127.
•
Automatic rear window defrosting, see
page 99.
The functions can also be returned to factory
settings in the menu system.
Air distribution
G021366
The incoming air is distributed from 20 different
vents in the passenger compartment.
Air distribution is fully automatic in AUTO
mode.
If desired, air distribution can be controlled
manually, see page 130.

Ventilated front seats (option)The ventilation system consists of fans in the
seats and backrests that draw air through the
seat upholstery. The cooling effect increases
as the air in the passenger compartment
becomes cooler.
The ventilation is controlled by the ECC sys-
tem, which takes into account the seat tem-
perature, sunlight in the passenger compart-
ment, and the ambient temperature.
The ventilation can be used at the same time
as seat heating.
The ventilation system can be activated when
the engine is running. There are three comfort
levels that produce different cooling and dehu-
midification effects:•
Level three: press the button once for
maximum output – three indicator lights
come on.
•
Level two: press the button twice for a
lower output – two indicator lights come
on.
•
Level one: press the button three times for
the lowest output – one indicator light
comes on.
•
Press the button a fourth time to switch off
the function – the indicator light will go out.
Blower control
Turn the control clockwise to
increase or counterclockwise
to decrease the blower
speed. Pressing the AUTO
switch will automatically reg-
ulate blower speed and over-
ride manual adjustment.
NOTE
If the blower is turned off completely, the air
conditioning is disengaged, which may
result in fogging on the windows.Heated front seats (option)
Press the button once for the
highest heat level – three indi-
cator lights come on.
Press the button twice for a
lower heat level – two indica-
tor lights come on.
Press the button three times for the lowest heat
level – one indicator light comes on.
Press the button four times to switch off the
heat – no indicator lights come on.Heated rear seats

Temperature control
The temperatures on the
driver and passenger sides
can be set independently.
When the vehicle is started,
the most recent setting is
resumed.
NOTE
Heating or cooling cannot be speeded up by
selecting a higher/lower temperature than
the actual temperature required.A/C – ON/OFF
The air conditioning is con-
trolled automatically by the
system when the ON light is
on. This cools/heats and
dehumidifies the incoming air.
When the OFF light is on, the
air conditioning is always dis-
engaged. Other functions are still controlled
automatically. When defroster is selected, the
air conditioning system is set for maximum
blower speed and dehumidification.
Defroster
This function defrosts/de-ices
the windshield and front side
windows. The indicator light
in the defroster button lights
when the function is active.
•
Blower speed increases automatically and
the air conditioning will switch on (if not
already on and if the passenger compart-
ment blower is not turned off) to dehumid-
ify the air in the passenger compartment.
Air conditioning can be switched off by
pressing the AC button.
•
Recirculation will not function while defrost
is engaged.
The climate system will return to its previous
settings when the defroster function is
switched off.
