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\fs functions can be changed in the
menu system, see page 122:
\b
Blower speed in automatic mode.
\b Recirculation timer for passenger com-
partment air.
\b Automatic rear window defrosting.
The functions can also be returned to factory
settings in the menu system.
Air distribution 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 128.

dows.
For a description of the menu system, see
page 122.
Temperature controlThe 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/OFFThe air conditioning is con-
trolled automatically by the
system when the ON light is
on. This cools/heats and
dehumidifies the incoming air.

DefrosterThis function defrosts/de-ices
the windshield and front side
windows. The indicator light
in the defroster button lights
when the function is active.\b
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.
\b Recirculation will not function while defrost
is engaged.
The climate system will return to its previous
settings when the defroster function is
switched off.Recirculation/air quality system
Recirculation
This function can be used to
shut out exhaust fumes,
smoke, etc from the passen-
ger compartment. The air in
the passenger compartment
is then recirculated, i.e., no air
from outside the car is taken
into the car when this function is activated. The
indicator light in the button will illuminate when
recirculation is selected.
If the air in the car recirculates for too long,
there is a risk of condensation forming on the
insides of the windows, especially in winter.
TimerThe timer function minimizes the risk of fog-
ging, or stale air when the recirculation function
is selected by automatically switching off the
function after a certain length of time, depend-
ing on the ambient temperature. Activate/
deactivate the function under Climate control
settings Recirculation timer. For a
description of the menu system, see
page 122.
NOTE When Defroster is selected, recirculation is
always deactivated.
Interior Air Quality System–IAQS*This system consists of a mul-
tifilter and an air quality sen-
sor. The filter helps remove
gases and particles from the
incoming air, thereby reduc-
ing 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. When the AUTO button
is depressed the air quality sensor is always
engaged.
Activating the air quality sensorSwitch between the three
functions by pressing the but-
ton repeatedly.
