The infotainment system's voice recognition1
allows the driver to voice-activate certain func-
tions in a BluetoothŸ-connected mobile phone
or in Volvo's navigation system - RTI (Road and
Traffic Information System).
NOTE
•The information in this section
describes the use of voice commands
to control a mobile phone connected
using Bluetooth
Ÿ. For detailed infor-
mation on using a mobile phone con-
nected using Bluetooth
Ÿ with the car's
Infotainment system see page 262.
•The Volvo navigation system RTI (Road
and Traffic Information System) has a
separate user manual which contains
more information on voice control and
voice commands to control that sys-
tem.
Voice commands offer convenience and help
the driver to avoid being distracted, and
instead concentrate on driving and focus
attention on the road and traffic conditions.
WARNING
The driver always holds overall responsibil-
ity for driving the vehicle in a safe manner
and complying with all applicable rules of
the road.
The voice recognition system allows the driver
to voice-activate certain functions of a
Bluetooth
Ÿ-connected mobile phone and in
Volvo's navigation system - RTI (Road and
Traffic Information System), while the driver
can keep his/her hands on the wheel at the
same time. The input data are in dialogue form
with spoken commands from the user and ver-
bal replies from the system. The voice recog-
nition system uses the same microphone as
the Bluetooth
Ÿ handsfree system (see illustra-
tion on page 262) and the voice recognition
system's replies come via the car's speakers.
Language
Language list.
Voice recognition is not possible for all lan-
guages. Languages available for voice recog-
nition are marked with an icon in the language
list -
. Changing the language is performed
in the menu system MY CAR, see page 204.

Button for voice recognition
To activate the systemBefore voice commands to a mobile phone can
be used the mobile phone must be paired and
connected via Bluetooth
Ÿ handsfree. If a tele-
phone command is given and no mobile phone
is paired, then the system will provide informa-
tion about this. For information on pairing and
connecting a mobile phone, see page 263.
•Press the button for voice recognition (1) in
order to activate the system and initiate a
dialogue with voice commands. The sys-
tem will then display commonly used com-
mands in the TV screen in the centre con-
sole.Keep the following things in mind when you use
the voice recognition system:
•For a command - speak after the tone, with
normal voice at normal speed.
•Do not speak while the system is replying
(the system cannot understand commands
during this time).
•The car's doors, windows and sunroof*
must be closed.
•Avoid background noise in the passenger
compartment.
NOTE
If the driver is unsure of which command to
use, he (she) can say "Help" - the system
then responds with a few different com-
mands which can be used in the current sit-
uation.
Voice commands can be disabled by:
•saying "Cancel"
•not speaking
•a long press on the steering wheel but-
ton for Voice recognition
•Press EXIT or another main source but-
ton (e.g. MEDIA).
Help functions for voice recognition
•Instructions: A function that helps you get
familiar with the system and the procedure
for giving commands.
•Voice training: A function that enables the
voice recognition system to learn to know
your voice and your accent. The function

Using voice commands
The driver initiates a dialogue with the voice
commands by pressing the button for voice
recognition (see illustration on page 272).
Once a dialogue has been started, commonly
used commands will be shown in the TV
screen. Greyed-out text or text within brackets
is not included in the spoken command.
When the driver becomes accustomed to the
system, he/she can speed up the command
dialogue and skip the prompts from the sys-
tem, by briefly pressing the button for voice
recognition.
Commands can be given in several ways
The command "Phone call contact" can be
pronounced as e.g.:
•"Phone > Call contact" - Say "Phone", wait
for the system's reply, and then continue
by saying "Call contact."
or
•"Phone call contact" - Say the whole com-
mand in one sequence.
Quick commandsQuick commands for the phone can be found
in the menu system MY CAR under Settings
Voice settingsVoice command list
Phone commands and General commands.For a description of the menu system, see
page 202.
Dial a numberThe system understands the numbers 0 (zero)
to 9 (nine). These numbers can be pronounced
individually, in groups of several numbers at a
time, or the whole number all at once. Numbers
greater than 9 (nine) cannot be handled by the
system, e.g. 10 (ten) or 11 (eleven) are not pos-
sible.
The following is an example of a dialogue with
voice commands. The system's reply will vary
depending on the situation.
The user starts the dialogue by saying:Phone > call number
or
Phone call number
System replyNumber?
User actionStart saying the numbers (as individual units,
i.e. six-eight-seven, etc.) in the phone number.
If you say several numbers and pause, the sys-
tem will repeat them, and then say "Continue".
Continue to say the numbers. When finished,
finish the command by saying "Call".
•You can also change the number by saying
the commands "Correct" (which deletes

Consider the following when you call a contact:
•If there are several contacts with similar
names, they will be presented in the dis-play in the numbered rows and the system
prompts you to select a row number.
•If there are more rows in the list than can
be displayed simultaneously, saying
"Down" allows you to scroll down in the list
(and saying "Up" allows you to scroll up in
the list).
Calling voice mailboxThe following dialogue allows you to call your

General information on fuel
Fuel of a lower quality than that recommended
by Volvo must not be used as engine power
and fuel consumption is negatively affected.
WARNING
Always avoid inhaling fuel vapour and get-
ting fuel splashes in the eyes.
In the event of fuel in the eyes, remove any
contact lenses and rinse the eyes in plenty
of water for at least 15 minutes and seek
medical attention.
Never swallow fuel. Fuels such as petrol,
bioethanol and mixtures of them and diesel
are highly toxic and could cause permanent
injury or be fatal if swallowed. Seek medical
attention immediately if fuel has been swal-
lowed.
WARNING
Fuel which spills onto the ground can be
ignited.
Switch off the fuel-driven heater before star-
ting to refuel.
Never carry an activated mobile phone
when refuelling. The ring signal could cause
spark build-up and ignite petrol fumes,
leading to fire and injury.
IMPORTANT
Mixing different types of fuel or the use of
fuel not recommended invalidates Volvo's
guarantees, and any associated service
agreement. This applies to all engines.
NOTE: It does not apply to cars with engines
that are adapted to run on ethanol fuel (E85).
NOTE
Extreme weather conditions, driving with a
trailer or driving at high altitudes in combi-
nation with fuel grade are factors that could
affect the car's performance.
Catalytic convertersThe purpose of the catalytic converters is to
purify exhaust gases. They are located close to
the engine so that operating temperature is
reached quickly.
The catalytic converters consist of a monolith
(ceramic or metal) with channels. The channel
walls are lined with a thin layer of platinum/rho-
dium/palladium. These metals act as catalysts,
i.e. they participate in and accelerate a chem-
ical reaction without being used up them-
selves.
Lambda-sondTM oxygen sensorThe Lambda-sond is part of a control system
intended to reduce emissions and improve fuel
economy.
An oxygen sensor monitors the oxygen content
of the exhaust gases leaving the engine. This
value is fed into an electronic system that con-
tinuously controls the injectors. The ratio of fuel
to air directed to the engine is continuously
adjusted. These adjustments create optimal
conditions for efficient combustion, and
together with the three-way catalytic converter
reduce harmful emissions (hydrocarbons, car-
bon monoxide and nitrous oxides).
Petrol
Petrol must fulfil the EN 228 standard. Most
engines can be run with octane ratings of 95
and 98 RON. Only in exceptional cases should
91 RON be used.
•95 RON can be used for normal driving.
•98 RON is recommended for optimum per-
formance and minimum fuel consumption.
When driving in temperatures above +38 °C,
fuel with the highest possible octane rating is
recommended for optimum performance and
fuel economy.
