Switching HD on or offThe factory setting for HD radio is on. However,
when driving through areas with weak HD sig-
nals (fringe areas), you may experience that the
radio repeatedly switches between analogue/
digital and digital/analogue reception. If this
happens, it may be desirable to switch HD off.
To do so:
1. Be sure the audio system is switched on
and in AM or FM mode.
2.
Press MENU in the center console control
panel.
3.
Press ENTER to turn HD off (the X will dis-
appear from the box on the display screen).
This will disable the radio's capability to receive
digital broadcasts but it will continue to func-
tion as a conventional (analogue) AM/FM
receiver. Please note that when HD is switched
off, it will not be possible to tune to sub-chan-
nels (see the following section for a more
detailed explanation of sub-channels).
Repeat steps 2 and 3 above to reactivate HD
(an X will appear in the box on the display
screen).Sub-channels
Example of an HD Radio station with sub-channels
In many cases, a main HD Radio station (FM
wavebands only) will also have sub-channels
offering additional types of programming or
music.
In such cases, a number will be displayed to
the right of the frequency number indicating
that the currently tuned frequency has at least
one sub-channel. The "2" in the illustration indi-
cates that you are currently listening to the first
sub-channel on frequency 93.9.
Selecting sub-channelsTo listen to a station's sub-channel(s), press
the right arrow key on the center console or on
the steering wheel keypad. To go back to themain channel, press the left arrow key. To go
to subchannel 2 (if available), press the right
arrow key.
If you are currently tuned to a frequency's main
channel, pressing the left arrow key will tune to
the next lower radio frequency.
NOTE
•When the radio has gone into HD mode,
it may take several seconds before the
">" symbol (if the current frequency has
any sub-channels) is displayed to the
right of the frequency. Pressing the
arrow keys before the number is dis-
played will cause the radio to tune to the
next available radio station, not to the
current station's sub-channels.
•When you are no longer in broadcasting
range of the currently tuned sub-chan-
nel,
No HD reception will be dis-
played. The radio will then be muted
and it will be necessary to tune to or
search for a new radio station.
Sub-channels can also be stored as presets,
see page 256 for information on storing sta-
tions.
If you press a sub-channel's preset button, it
may take up to 6 seconds before the channel
becomes audible. If you press this button while

If the vehicle is equipped with Rear Seat Enter-
tainment (RSE)*, an audio switch is located in
the tunnel console for switching from AUX and
RSE. The switch has two positions:
CAUTION
The cover over the cup holders should be
open when a device is connected to the
AUX socket.
•AUX: sound from an auxiliary device is
heard from the audio system's speakers
•RSE: sound from the RSE system is heard
from the audio system's speakers
AUX*The AUX (auxiliary) port can be used to con-
nect a device such as an MP3 player.
Turn the SELECTOR control (see the illustra-
tion on page 250) to choose
AUX.
If the player is being charged through a 12-volt
socket while it is connect to the AUX port,
sound quality may be impaired.
The volume of the external sound source AUX
may be different from the volume of the internal
sound sources such as the CD player or the
radio.

If you connect an iPodŸ, MP3 player or a USB
flash drive to the optional USB connector, this
device can be controlled using the vehicle's

The text
Loading will be displayed while
the system loads the files (folder struc-
ture) on the device. This may take a
short time.
When the information has been loaded, infor-
mation about the tracks on the device will be
displayed.
The
/ buttons can be used to fast
forward/reverse or change tracks:
•Press briefly to change tracks.
•Press slightly longer to fast forward/
reverse.
The arrow keys on the steering wheel keypad
can also be used in the same way.
NOTE
•The system supports a number of
iPodŸ models produced in 2005 or later.
•In order to help avoid damage to the
USB socket, it will be switched off if
there is a short circuit or if the con-
nected device uses too much current
(which can happen if the device does
not comply with the USB standard). The
USB socket will reactivate the next time
the ignition is switched on if the problem
no longer exists. If the problem persists,
contact a trained and authorized Volvo
service technician.
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. It can index up to
1,000 folders and a maximum of 254
sub-folders/files for each folder. How-
ever, the highest folder level can sup-
port up to 1,000 sub-folders/files.
•When using a longer type of USB
device, connecting it with a USB
adapter cable will help reduce mechan-
ical wear on the USB socket and on the
device.
iPodŸ
An iPodŸ is charged and draws current if it is
connected to the USB connector. However, if
the battery is completely discharged, it should
be charged before the iPod
Ÿ is connected to
the USB connector.
BluetoothŸ streaming audio (BT)The vehicle's audio system is equipped with
BluetoothŸ, which makes it possible to play
streaming audio files from a BluetoothŸcon-
nected cell phone. Navigation and control of
the phone can be done through the vehicle's

wheel keypad. On certain cell phones, it is also
