* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
Introduction
Air 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
\b
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.
\b 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
\b
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.
\b
The temperature sensor for the passenger
compartment is located below the climate
control panel.
\b The outside temperature sensor is located
on the door mirror.
\b The humidity sensor
* is located in the inte-
rior 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.
Temporary shut-off of the air
conditioning
The 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

The audio system compensates for disrupting
noises in the passenger compartment by
increasing the volume according to the speed
of the vehicle. The level of sound compensa-
tion can be set at low, medium or high. Select
the level under Audio settings Auto
volume control in the menu system.
External audio source volumeExternal devices such as an MP3 player can be
connected to the AUX input, see page 134. The
volume of the external sound source AUX may
be different from the volume of the internal
sound sources such as the CD player or the
radio. Before connecting an external device, it
may be advisable to adjust the device to
approximately 2/3 of its maximum volume. If
the external sound source\fs volume is too high,
the quality of the sound may be impaired. To
help prevent this, adjust the input volume of the
external audio source:
1. Set the audio system in AUX mode using MODE and use (4) to navigate to Volume,
AUX input.
2. Turn the control (3) or press / the nav-
igation button. G031440

04 Comfort and driving pleasureCompass 04
154 Operation
Rearview mirror with compass.
The rearview mirror has an integrated display
that shows the compass direction in which the
vehicle is pointing. Eight different directions
are shown with the abbreviations: N (north),
NE (north east), E (east), SE (southeast), S
(south), SW (southwest), W (west) and NW
(northwest).
The compass is displayed automatically when
the vehicle is started or in ignition mode II. To
switch the compass on/off use a pen or similar
object and press in the button on the rear side
of the mirror.
CalibrationThe compass may need to be calibrated if, for
example, the vehicle is driven into a new mag-
netic zone. 1.
Stop the vehicle in a large open area, safely
out of traffic and away from steel structures
and high-tension electrical wires.
2. Start the vehicle.
NOTE For best results from calibration, switch off
all electrical equipment in the vehicle (cli-
mate system, windshield wipers, audio sys-
tem, etc.) and make sure that all doors are
closed.
3. Using a pen or similar object, press and
hold the button on the rear side of mirror
until C is shown again in the mirror(after
approx. 6 seconds).
4. Drive as usual. C disappears from the dis-
play when calibration is complete.
Alternative calibration method:
Drive slowly in a circle at a speed of no
more than 5 mph (8 km/h) until C disap-
pears from the display when calibration is
complete.
Selecting a magnetic zone Magnetic zones.
The earth is divided into 15 magnetic zones.
The correct zone must be selected for the com-
pass to work correctly.
1.
Put the ignition in mode II.
2. Using a pen or similar object, press and hold the button on the rear side of mirror
for at least 3 seconds. The number for the
current area will be shown.
3. Press the button repeatedly until the num-
ber for the required geographic area
(1 – 15) is shown.
4. The display will revert to showing the com-
pass direction after several seconds. G031611
