Accessories and extra equipment
The incorrect connection and installation of accessories and extra equipment can nega-tively affect the car's electronic system. Certain accessories only function when asso- ciated software is installed in the car's com-puter system. Volvo therefore recommendsthat you always contact an authorised Volvoworkshop before installing accessories orextra equipment which are connected to oraffect the electrical system.
Heat-reflecting windscreen*
Areas where IR film is not applied.
Dimensions
A40 mm
B80 mm
The windscreen is equipped with a heat- reflecting film (IR) that reduces the solar heatradiation into the passenger compartment. The positioning of electronic equipment, such as a transponder, behind a glass surface withheat-reflecting film may affect its function andperformance. For the optimal function of electronic equip- ment, it should be positioned on the part ofthe windscreen with no heat-reflecting film(see the highlighted area in the above illustra-tion).Change of ownership for cars with Volvo On Call*
If the car is equipped with Volvo On Call, VOC it is important to change the owner of theservice. VOC is a supplemental service that consists of safety, security and comfort services. Inthe event of change of ownership it is impor-tant to change the owner of the service.
Closing the VOC serviceContact a Volvo dealer in the event of changeof ownership in order to close the VOC serv-ice. In the event of change of ownership it is important to reset personal settings in the car to the original factory settings 2
, see Change
of ownership.
Starting the VOC serviceIt is very important that the VOC service changes owner so that the previous owner'sability to use services in the car is stopped.Contact a Volvo dealer in the event of achange of ownership.

Park assist camera
The parking camera is an assist system and is activated when reverse gear is engaged (canbe changed in the settings menu (p. 246)). The camera image is shown on the centre console's screen.
NOTE
When a towbar is configured with the car's electrical system, the protrusion of thetowbar is included when the functionmeasures the parking space.
WARNING
• The parking camera serves as an aid. It does not relieve the driver of respon-sibility when reversing.
• The camera has blind spots, whereobstacles cannot be detected.
• Be aware of people and animals in thevicinity of the car.
Function and operation
CAM
button location.
The camera shows what is behind the car and if something appears from the sides. The camera shows a wide area behind the car and part of the bumper and any towbar. Objects on the screen may appear to tilt slightly - this is normal.
NOTE
Objects on the display screen may be closer to the car than they appear to be onthe screen.
If another view is active the parking camera system takes over automatically and thecamera image is displayed on the screen. When reverse gear is engaged two unbroken lines are shown graphically which illustrate where the car's rear wheels will roll with thecurrent steering wheel angle, this facilitatestight parking, reversing into tight spaces andfor hitching a trailer. The car’s approximateexternal dimensions are illustrated by meansof two dashed lines. These park assist linescan be switched off in the settings menu. If the car is also equipped with parking assis- tance sensors* then their information is dis-played graphically as coloured fields in orderto illustrate the distance to detected obsta-cles, see the heading "Cars with reversingsensors" later in the text. The camera is active approx. 5 seconds after reverse gear has been disengaged or until thecar's speed exceeds 10 km/h forward or35 km/h backward.

Tyres - direction of rotation
Tyres with a tread pattern which are designed to only turn in one direction have the directionof rotation marked with an arrow.
G021778
The arrow shows the tyre's direction of rotation.The tyre must always rotate in the same direction throughout its lifespan. Tyres shouldonly be switched between front and rearpositions, never between left and right-handsides, or vice versa. If the tyres are fittedincorrectly, the car's braking characteristicsand capacity to force rain and slush out of theway are adversely affected. Tyres with thegreatest tread depth should always be fittedto the rear of the car (to decrease the risk ofskidding).
NOTE
Make sure that both pairs of wheels have the same type and dimension, and also thesame make.
Follow the recommended tyre pressures specified in the tyre pressure table (p. 407).

Tyres - maintenance
Amongst other things, the function of the tyres is to provide grip on the road surface,dampen vibration and protect the wheel fromwear.
Driving characteristicsTyres greatly affect the car's driving characte-ristics. The type of tyre, dimensions, tyrepressure and speed rating are important forhow the car performs.
Tyre ageAll tyres older than 6 years old should bechecked by an expert even if they seemundamaged. Tyres age and decompose, evenif they are hardly ever or never used. Thefunction can therefore be affected. Thisapplies to all tyres that are stored for futureuse. Examples of external signs which indi-cate that the tyre is unsuitable for use arecracks or discoloration.

New tyres
Tyres are perishable. After a few years they begin to harden at the same time as the fric-tion capacity/characteristics gradually deteri-orate. For this reason, aim to get as freshtyres as possible when you replace them.This is especially important with regard towinter tyres. The last four digits in thesequence mean the week and year of manu-facture. This is the tyre's DOT marking(Department of Transportation), and this isstated with four digits, for example 1510. Thetyre in the figure was manufactured in week15 of 2010.
Summer and winter tyresWhen summer and winter wheels arechanged the wheels should be marked withwhich side of the car they were mounted on,for example L for left and R for right.
Wear and maintenanceCorrect tyre pressure (p. 328) results in moreeven wear. Driving style, tyre pressure, cli-mate and road condition affect how quicklyyour tyres age and wear. To avoid differencesin tread depth and to prevent wear patternsarising, the front and rear wheels can beswitched with each other. A suitable distancefor the first change is approx. 5000 km andthen at 10000 km intervals. Volvo recom-mends that you contact an authorised Volvoworkshop for checking if you are uncertainabout tread depth. If significant differences inwear (> 1 mm difference in tread depth)between tyres have already occurred, theleast worn tyres must always be placed onthe rear. Understeer is normally easier to cor-rect than oversteer, and leads to the car con-tinuing forwards in a straight line rather thanhaving the rear end skidding to one side,resulting in possible complete loss of controlover the car. This is why it is important for therear wheels never to lose grip before the frontwheels. Wheels should be stored lying down or hang- ing up - and not standing up.
WARNING
A damaged tyre may lead to loss of control over the car.

Tyres - tread wear indicators
A tread wear indicator shows the status of the tyre's tread.
G021829
Tread wear indicators.
Tread wear indicators are narrow treadless bands across the width of the tread. On theside of the tyre are the letters TWI (TreadWear Indicator). When the tyre's tread depthis down to 1.6 mm, the tread depth will belevel in height with the tread wear indicators.Change to new tyres as soon as possible.Remember that tyres with little tread depthprovide very poor grip in rain and snow.

Wheel bolts
Wheel bolts are used to fasten the wheels at the hubs and are available in different ver-sions.
IMPORTANT
The wheel bolts must be tightened to 140 Nm. Overtightening can damage the nutsand the bolts.
Only use rims that are tested and approved by Volvo and which are Volvo genuine acces-sories. Check the torque with a torquewrench.
Locking wheel bolts*Locking wheel bolts* can be used on bothaluminium and steel rims. Under the cargoarea floor there is space for the sleeve for thelockable wheel bolts.
