The climate control system will start using the
same settings as when the engine was
switched off.
When the engine is started using ERS, it will run
for a maximum of 15 minutes before automat-
ically switching off again. After 2 ERS starts,
the engine must be started in the normal way
before ERS can be used again.

and or Local laws regarding engine idling
when using ERS.
WARNING

General information
The infotainment system consists of radio and
media player features and also makes it pos-
sible to communicate via a cell phone. The
information is displayed on a 7" screen in the
center console. Infotainment functions can be
controlled from the center console or via the
buttons on the steering wheel keypad. On
models equipped with the optional navigation
system, voice commands can also be used to
e.g., set destinations, make calls from a
Bluetooth
Ÿ-connected cell phone, etc.
If the infotainment system was on when the
ignition was switched off, the most recently
used source (
FM1, etc.) will restart the next
time the ignition is put in mode I or higher. The
driver's door must also be closed on vehicles
with keyless drive*.
The infotainment system can be operated for
15 minutes at a time while the engine is
switched off by pressing the On/Off button.
While the engine is being started, the infotain-
ment system will be temporarily interrupted
and will resume when the engine has started.
NOTE
To help avoid excessive battery drain,
remove the remote key from the ignition slot
if the infotainment system is used while the
engine is switched off.

241 Introduction
The vehicle's media player is equipped with
BluetoothŸ and can play streaming audio files
from a BluetoothŸ device such as a cell phone
or mp3 player. Navigation and control of the
device can be done through the vehicle's cen-
ter console control panel or the steering wheel
keypad. On certain external devices, it is also
possible to change tracks from the device.
NOTE
Any Bluetooth cell phones used must sup-
port Audio/Video Remote Control Profile
(AVRCP) and Advanced Audio Distribution
Profile (A2DP). The phone must use AVRCP
version 1.3 and A2DP 1.2. If older versions
of these standards are used, certain fea-
tures (e.g., scan or random) may not func-
tion.
Not all cell phones are fully compatible with
the vehicle's Bluetooth system. A list of
compatible phones is available at you Volvo
retailer or at www.volvocars.us.
Menu navigation
Choices can be made in the Bluetooth menus
from the center console control panel or the
steering wheel keypad. For additional informa-
tion about navigating the various menus, see

must be paired to the infotainment system. The
procedure for connecting an external device
varies, depending whether or not the device
has previously been paired to the infotainment
system. A maximum of 10 external devices can
be paired and each device only needs to be
paired once. To pair a device, see page 244.
Automatic connection

Bluetooth® hands-free connection

243 Introduction
This feature makes it possible to set up a wire-
less connection between a BluetoothŸ-ena-
bled cell phone or other device and the vehi-
cle’s infotainment system. This enables the
infotainment system to function as a hands-
free connection and allows you to remote-con-
trol a number of the phone’s functions. The
microphone used by this system is located
near the driver's side sun visor (2). The buttons
and other controls on the cell phone can
always be used regardless of whether or not
the phone is connected to the hands-free sys-
tem.
NOTE
Not all cell phones are fully compatible with
the hands-free system. A list of compatible
phones is available at your Volvo retailer or
at www.volvocars.us
WARNING
Never use the hands-free feature or any
other device in your vehicle in a way that
distracts you from the task of driving safely.
Distraction can lead to a serious accident.

Introduction
The RSE system1 provides entertainment for
the rear seat passengers by making it possible
to e.g., watch a film, play music, listen to the
radio or connect an external device such as a
game console.
RSE is fully integrated into the vehicle's info-
tainment system and can be used at the same
time as other infotainment features.
For example, if a rear seat passenger is using
A/V-AUX and headphones, the driver and front
seat passenger can still use the vehicle's radioor media player. However, only one disc can be
played in the media player at a time. You can
listen to music from e.g., an iPodŸ or from
streaming audio files using the BluetoothŸ
function.
The RSE system can be controlled from the
front screen (parental control).
Different media can be played or viewed from
different sources on the various screens (front
center console and/or the respective screens
in the rear seat). It is also possible to play or
view media from the same source on one or

more of the screens. However, it is not possible
to play a film from USB while a CD or DVD is
being played.
CAUTION
When transporting large objects in the rear
seat, be sure that there is adequate space
between the object(s) and the RSE screens
to help avoid scratching or damaging these
screens.
If necessary, cover the screens with a suit-
able material.
NOTE
•The RSE screens and remote control
may not function in very low or very high
cabin temperatures. They will become
operable again after the climate control
system has created a comfortable tem-
perature in the cabin.
•Keep the IR transceivers' lenses clean
by wiping them regularly with a damp
cloth. A dirty lens could affect the func-
tion of the remote control.
Ignition modes and electrical current to
RSE
RSE can be activated with the ignition in
modes I or II (and when the engine is running).See page 84 for detailed information about the
various ignition modes. If a film is being played,
it will stop momentarily while the engine is
being started and will resume when the engine
is running.
NOTE
Using RSE for more than approx.
10 minutes when the engine is not running
will drain the vehicle's battery and may
make the engine difficult or impossible to
start.
A message will be displayed on the screen
if the battery's charge level becomes too
low.
Using the system's menusSelections in the RSE menus are made using
the remote control. See page 261 for more
information about the RSE menus.
Remote control
A remote control is included with the RSE sys-
tem, which can be used to control both screens
in the rear seat as well as other infotainment
system functions.
See page 264 for more detailed information
about the remote control.
