Towing
Find out the highest legal speed for towing
before towing the car.
1. Press the remote control key into the igni-
tion switch to unlock the steering lock so
that the car can be steered, see page 81.
2. The remote control key must remain in the
ignition switch while the car is being towed.
3. Keep the towline taut when the towing
vehicle reduces speed by holding your foot
gently pressed on the brake pedal -
thereby avoiding unnecessary jerking.
4. Be prepared to brake to stop.
WARNING
•The steering lock must be unlocked
before towing.
•The remote control key must be in key
position II.
•Never remove the remote control key
from the ignition switch while driving or
when the car is being towed.
WARNING
The brake servo and power steering do not
work when the engine is switched off. The
brake pedal must be pressed about five
times harder than normal, and the steering
will be considerably heavier than normal.
Manual gearbox
Move gear lever into neutral and release
the parking brake.
Automatic gearbox, Geartronic
IMPORTANT
Note that the car must always be towed with
the wheels rolling forward.
•Cars with automatic gearbox must not
be towed at speeds above 80 km/h or
further than 80 km.

Move the gear selector to position N and
release the parking brake.
Automatic gearbox, PowershiftThe 2.0T with Powershift automatic transmis-
sion should not be towed as the transmission
is dependent on the engine running in order to
receive sufficient lubrication.
IMPORTANT
Avoid towing.
•However, the car can be towed for a
short distance at low speed to move it
from a dangerous position - not further
than 10 km and not faster than
10 km/h. Note that the car must always
be towed with the wheels rolling for-
ward.
•In the event of moving a longer distance
than 10 km, the car must be transported
with the drive wheels raised from the
road - professional recovery is recom-
mended.

Move the gear selector to position N and
release the parking brake.
Jump startingDo not tow the car to bump start the engine.
Use a donor battery if the battery is discharged
and the engine does not start, see page 115.
IMPORTANT
Bump starting the car can damage the cat-
alytic converter.

Sealing punctured tyres
G014338
For information on the function of the parts, see
preceding illustration.
1. Open the lid of the emergency puncture
repair kit.
2. Detach the label for maximum permitted
speed and affix it to the steering wheel.
WARNING
The sealing fluid can irritate the skin. In the
case of contact with skin, wash away the
fluid with soap and water.
3.
Check that the switch is in position 0 and
locate the cable and the air hose.
NOTE
Do not break the bottle's seal before use.
The seal is broken automatically when the
bottle is screwed in.
4. Unscrew the orange cap and unscrew the
bottle's stopper.
5. Screw the bottle into its holder.
WARNING
Do not unscrew the bottle, it is equipped
with a reverse catch to prevent leakage.
6. Unscrew the wheel's dust cap and screw
in the air hose valve connection to the bot-
tom of the thread on the tyre's air valve.
7. Plug the cable into the 12 V socket and
start the car.
WARNING
Do not leave children in the car without
supervision when the engine is running.
8.
Flick the switch to position I.
WARNING
Never stand next to the tyre when the com-
pressor is running. If cracks or unevenness
arise then the compressor must be
switched off immediately. The journey
should not be continued. Contacting an
authorised tyre centre is recommended.
NOTE
When the compressor starts, the pressure
can increase up to 6 bar but the pressure
drops after approximately 30 seconds.
9. Inflate the tyre for 7 minutes.
IMPORTANT
Risk of overheating. The compressor must
not run for more than 10 minutes.
10. Switch off the compressor to check the
pressure on the pressure gauge. Minimum

Lamps

313 General
All bulbs are specified, see page 317. Bulbs
and spotlights that are of a special type or that
are only suitable for replacement by a work-
shop are:
•General interior lighting in the roof, reading
lamps
•Glovebox lighting
•Courtesy lighting
•Direction indicators, door mirror
•Approach lighting
•Brake light
•Rear side position lamps, position lamps
•Xenon, Active Xenon lamps
•LED lamps, general
WARNING
On cars equipped with Xenon lamps, head-
lamp replacement must be performed at a
workshop - an authorised Volvo workshop
is recommended. The lamp must be han-
dled with extreme caution because it is
equipped with a high voltage unit.
IMPORTANT
Never touch the glass part of the bulbs with
your fingers. Grease and oils from your fin-
gers are vaporised by the heat, coating the
reflector and then causing damage.
Headlamps front
All of the headlamp bulbs are replaced via the
engine compartment. Loosen and remove the
whole headlamp.
WARNING
Always switch off the ignition and remove
the remote control key before starting to
replace a bulb.
Removing the headlamp1.
Press the START-/STOP ENGINE button
quickly.
2. (Upper illustration)
Pull out the headlamp's locking pins.
Release the headlamp by alternately
tilting and pulling it out.

Eco Start/Stop DRIVe*
The car is equipped with two 12 V batteries -
an extra heavy-duty battery for starting and a
support battery which assists the
Eco Start/Stop DRIVe function's starting
sequence.

NOTE
•The higher the current take-off in the car
(extra cooling/heating, etc.) the more
the batteries must be charged =
increased fuel consumption.
•When the capacity of the battery has
fallen below the lowest permissible level
then the Start/Stop function is disen-
gaged.
Temporarily reduced Start/Stop function due
to high current take-off means:
•The engine auto-starts1 without the driver
depressing the clutch pedal.
1Auto-start can only take place if the gear lever is in neutral position.

Battery location
A: Left-hand drive car. B: Right-hand drive car. 1.
Battery for starting2 2. Support battery.
The support battery normally requires no more
service than the normal battery that is used for
starting.
IMPORTANT
If the following instruction is not observed
then the Start/Stop function may cease to
work after the temporary connection of an
external battery or battery charger:
•The negative battery terminal on the
car's battery must never be used for
connecting an external battery or bat-
tery charger - only the car chassis may
be used as the grounding point.
See the section "Start assistance" in "Star-
ting and driving" - where there is a descrip-
tion of how the cable clamps must be fitted.
NOTE
If the battery has become so discharged
that everything is "black" and in principle
the car does not have all the normal electri-
cal functions and the engine is subsequently
started using an external battery or battery
charger, then the Start/Stop function will be
activated. It will then be possible for the
engine to be auto-stopped but in the event
of an auto-stop the Start/Stop function may
fail to auto-start the engine due to inade-
quate capacity in the battery.
The battery must first be charged in order to
ensure a successful auto-start after an auto-
stop. At an outside temperature of +15 °C
the battery needs to be charged for at least
1 hour. At a lower outside temperature a
charging time of 3-4 hours is recom-
mended. The recommendation is that the
battery is charged using an external battery
charger.
If this is not possible then the recommen-
dation is to temporarily deactivate the func-
tion until the battery has been adequately
recharged.
For more information about recharging the
battery, see the section "Battery" in the
chapter "Maintenance and service".
2The battery for starting is described in detail on page 321.
