HomeLink® Wireless Control System*
03
100* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
Introduction
The HomeLink1 Wireless Control System pro-
vides a convenient way to replace up to three
hand-held radio-frequency (RF) transmitters
used to activate devices such as gate opera-
tors, garage door openers, entry door locks,
security systems, even home lighting. Addi-
tional HomeLink information can be found on
the Internet at www.homelink.com.
WARNING
•If you use HomeLink to open a garage
door or gate, be sure no one is near the
gate or door while it is in motion.
•When programming a garage door
opener, it is advised to park outside of
the garage.
•Do not use HomeLink with any garage
door opener that lacks safety stop and
reverse features as required by U.S.
federal safety standards (this includes
any garage door opener model manu-
factured before April 1, 1982). A garage
door that cannot detect an object - sig-
naling the door to stop and reverse -
does not meet current U.S. federal
safety standards. For more information,
contact HomeLink at:
www.homelink.com.
Retain the original transmitter of the RF device
you are programming for use in other vehicles
as well as for future HomeLink programming. It
is also suggested that upon the sale of the
vehicle, the programmed HomeLink buttons be
erased for security purposes. Refer to “Erasing
HomeLink Buttons”.
Programming HomeLink
NOTE
Some vehicles may require the ignition
switch to be turned on or to the second
(“accessories”) position for programming
and/or operation of HomeLink. It is also rec-
ommended that a new battery be placed in
the hand-held transmitter of the device
being programmed to HomeLink for quicker
training and accurate transmission of the
radio-frequency signal.
1. Position the end of your hand-held trans-
mitter 1–3 inches (5–14 cm) away from the
HomeLink button you wish to program
while keeping the indicator light in view.
2. Simultaneously press and hold both the
chosen HomeLink and hand-held transmit-
ter buttons until the HomeLink indicator
light changes from a slow to a rapidly blink-
ing light. Now you may release both the
HomeLink and hand-held transmitter but-
tons.

HomeLink button previously trained, follow
these steps:
1. Press and hold the desired HomeLink but-
ton. DO NOT release the button.
2. The indicator light will begin to flash after
20 seconds. Without releasing the Home-
Link button, proceed with “Programming”
- step 1.For questions or comments, contact HomeLink
at: www.homelink.com or 1–800–355–3515.

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 128.
•Automatic rear window defrosting, see
page 97.
The functions can also be returned to factory
settings in the menu system.
Air distribution
G017699
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.

USB/iPod Ÿ connector*
AUX and USB sockets in the storage compartment
between the front seats
An auxiliary device, such as an iPod Ÿ, MP3
player or a USB flash drive can be connected
to the audio system via the connectors in the
center console storage compartment. A stand-
ard cable from an iPod Ÿ or MP3 player can be
routed under the cover to the AUX connector
in the storage compartment.
A sound source must be chosen, depending on
the device that has been connected:
1.
Use MODE to select
iPod or USB. The textCONNECT DEVICE will be displayed.
2. Connect the device to the connector in the
center console storage compartment (see

The text LOADING will be displayed while the
system loads the files (folder structure) on the
device. This may take a short time.
When information about the files (the folder
structure) on the device has been loaded, the
resulting list includes information on the artist,
genre and song title.
To navigate in the folder structure, press
ENTER and scroll up and down the folders
using the arrow buttons (on the audio system
control panel or on the steering wheel keypad).
Press the right arrow button to select a folder.
Press the left arrow button to go up a level in
the folder structure. Press ENTER to go down
a level in the folder structure.
Tracks can be selected in two ways:
•Turn the manual tuning knob clockwise or
counterclockwise
•Use the right or left arrow keys on the nav-
igation control to select the desired track.
The arrow keys on the steering wheel key-
pad can also be used in the same way.
NOTE
The system supports playback of files in the
most common versions of formats such as
mp3, wma, and wav. However, there may be
versions of these formats that the system
does not support.
The system also supports a number of
iPod Ÿ models produced in 2005 or later.
iPod Ÿ Shuffle is not supported.
USB flash driveTo simplify the use of a USB flash drive, it is
advisable to only store music files on the drive.
It will take considerably longer for the system
to index the files on the drive if it contains any-
thing other than compatible music files.
NOTE
The system supports removable media that
uses the USB 2.0 standard and the FAT32
file system and can index up to 500 folders
and a maximum of 64,000 files. The device
must have at least 256 Mb of memory.
MP3 playerMany MP3 players have a file indexing system
that is not supported by the vehicle's audio
system. In order to use an MP3 player, the sys-
tem must be set to USB Removable device/
Mass Storage Device.
iPod Ÿ
An iPod Ÿ receives current and its battery is
charged through the connecting cord. How-
ever, if the iPod's battery is completely
drained, it should be recharged before the
iPod Ÿ is connected to the audio system.
NOTE
When an iPod Ÿ is used as a sound source,
the vehicle's audio system has a menu
structure similar to the one in the iPod Ÿ. See
the iPod's manual for detailed information.
For further information, refer to the accessory
manual USB/iPod Ÿ Music Interface.
