BLIS is an information system based on cam-
era technology that under certain conditions
can help the driver to notice vehicles moving in
the same direction as the host vehicle in the so-
called "blind spot".
WARNING
The system is a supplement to, not a
replacement for, a safe driving style and use
of the rearview mirrors. It can never replace
the driver's attention and responsibility. The
responsibility for changing lanes safely
always rests with the driver.
The system is designed to work most effec-
tively when driving in dense traffic on multi-lane
highways.
When a camera (1) has detected a vehicle
inside the blind spot zone the indicator lamp (2)
illuminates with a constant glow.
NOTE
The lamp illuminates on the side of the car
where the system has detected the vehicle.
If the car is overtaken on both sides at the
same time then both lamps illuminate.
BLIS advises the driver with a message if a fault
arises in the system. If for example the sys-
tem's cameras are obscured then the BLIS
indicator lamp flashes and a message is shown
on the information display. In such cases,
check and clean the lenses.If necessary, the system can be switched off
temporarily, see the section "Activate/deacti-
vate".
Blind spots
A = approx. 9.5 m and B = approx. 3.0 m.

05 Comfort and driving pleasure
Climate control 
05
210* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
General
Climate controlThe car is equipped with electronic climate
control. The climate control system cools or
heats as well as dehumidifies the air in the pas-
senger compartment.
NOTE
The air conditioning system (AC) can be
switched off, but to ensure the best possible
climate comfort in the passenger compart-
ment and to prevent the windows from mist-
ing, it should always be on.
Actual temperatureThe temperature you select corresponds to the
physical experience with reference to factors
such as air speed, humidity and solar radiation
etc. in and around the car.
The system includes a sun sensor which
detects on which side the sun is shining into
the passenger compartment. This means
1 that
the temperature can differ between the right
and left-hand air vents despite the controls
being set for the same temperature on both
sides.
Sensor location
•The sun sensor is located on the top side
of the dashboard.
•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* is located by the inte-
rior rearview mirror.
NOTE
Do not cover or block the sensors with
clothing or other objects.
Side windows and sunroof*To ensure that the air conditioning works opti-
mally, the side windows, and sunroof* if speci-
fied, should be closed.
Misting windowsRemove misting on the insides of the windows
by primarily using the defroster function.
To reduce the risk of misting, keep the win-
dows clean and use window cleaner.
Temporary shut-off of the air
conditioning
When the engine requires full power, e.g. for full
acceleration or driving uphill with a trailer, the
air conditioning can be temporarily switched
off. There may then be a temporary increase in
temperature in the passenger compartment.
CondensationIn warm weather, condensation from the air
conditioning may drip under the car. This is
normal.
Ice and snowRemove ice and snow from the climate control
system air intake (the grille between the bonnet
and the windscreen).
Total airing functionThe function opens/closes all side windows
simultaneously and can be used for example to
quickly air the car during hot weather, see
page 58.
Passenger compartment filterAll air entering the car's passenger compart-
ment is cleaned with a filter. This must be
replaced at regular intervals. Follow the Volvo
Service Programme for the recommended
replacement intervals. If the car is used in a
1Only applies to ECC.
