Actual temperature
The temperature you select in the passenger compartment corresponds to the physicalexperience with reference to factors such asair speed, humidity and solar radiation etc. inand around the car. The system includes a sun sensor (p. 116) which detects on which side the sun is shin-ing into the passenger compartment. Thismeans that the temperature can differbetween the right and left-hand air ventsdespite the controls being set for the sametemperature on both sides.

Air cleaning - IAQS*
The air quality system IAQS separates gases and particles to reduce the levels of odoursand pollution in the passenger compartment. If the outside air is contaminated then the air intake is closed and the air is recirculated. It is possible to activate/deactivate the func- tion in the menu system MY CAR. For a
description of the menu system, see MY CAR(p. 103).
NOTE
The air quality sensor must always be ena- bled to ensure the best air in the passen-ger compartment. In a cold climate recirculation is limited so as to prevent misting. In the event of misting, the air quality sen- sor should be disengaged, and thedefroster functions for the windscreen andside windows, as well as the rear window,should be used.

Locking/unlocking - tailgate
The tailgate can be opened, locked and unlocked in several ways.
Manual opening
Rubber plate with electrical contact.
The tailgate is held closed by an electrical lock. To open:
1. Push down gently on the wider of the two rubberised pressure plates under the outer handle - the lock is released.
2. Lift the outside handle in order to fully open the tailgate.
IMPORTANT
• Minimal force is required to release the rear hatch lock - just gently press therubberised panel.
• Do not place the lift force on the rub-ber panel when opening the rear hatch- lift the handle. Using too much forcemay damage the electrical contacts onthe rubber panel.
Unlocking with the remote control key
The alarm for the tailgate can be disarmed* and the tailgate unlocked on its own by using the remote control key's
button.
The lock indicator (p. 150) on the instrument panel stops flashing in order to show that notall of the car is locked and the alarm's* leveland movement sensors and the sensors foropening the tailgate are disconnected.

Alarm
The alarm is a device that warns in the event of e.g. a break-in in the car. Activated alarm is triggered if:
• a door, the bonnet or the tailgate is opened
• a movement is detected in the passengercompartment (if fitted with a movementdetector*)
• the car is raised or towed away (if fittedwith a tilt detector*)
• the battery's cable is disconnected
• the siren is disconnected.
If there is a fault in the alarm system then the information display in the combined instru-ment panel shows a message. In which case,contact a workshop - an authorised Volvoworkshop is recommended.NOTE
The movement sensors trigger an alarm in the event of movement in the passengercompartment - air currents are also regis-tered. For this reason the alarm is trig-gered if the car is left with a window or thesunroof open or if the passenger compart-ment heater is used. To avoid this: Close the window/sunroof when leaving the car. If the car's inte-grated passenger compartment heater (ora portable electric heater) shall be used -direct the airflow from the air vents so thatthey are not pointing upwards in the pas-senger compartment. Alternatively,reduced alarm level can be used, seeReduced alarm level (p. 173).
NOTE
Do not attempt to repair or alter compo- nents in the alarm system yourself. Anysuch attempts may affect the terms of theinsurance.
Arming the alarm–Press the remote control key lock button.
Deactivate the alarm–Press the remote control key unlock but- ton.
Deactivating a triggered alarm–Press the remote control key unlock but- ton or insert the remote control key in theignition switch.

Road sign information (RSI)* - limitations
The road sign information function (RSI – Road Sign Information) helps the driver toremember which speed-related road signs thecar has passed. The function has the follow-ing limitations. The RSI function's camera sensor has limita- tions just like the human eye - read moreabout camera sensor limitations (p. 220)). Signs which indirectly provide information on a prevailing speed limit, e.g. name signs fortowns/districts, are not recorded by the RSIfunction. Here are several examples of what can dis- rupt the function:
• Faded signs
• Signs positioned on bends
• Rotated or damaged signs
• Concealed or poorly positioned signs
• Signs completely or partly covered with frost, snow and/or dirt.

Adaptive cruise control* - function
The adaptive cruise control (ACC – Adaptive Cruise Control) helps the driver to maintain aneven speed and a safe distance from the vehi-cle ahead. It consists of a cruise control sys-tem and a coordinated spacing system.

Warning lamp - braking by driver required
Steering wheel keypad (p. 190)
Radar sensor (p. 197)
WARNING
Adaptive cruise control is not a collision avoidance system. The driver must inter-vene if the system does not detect a vehi-cle in front. The adaptive cruise control does not brake for humans or animals, and not for smallvehicles such as bicycles and motorcy-cles. Nor for oncoming, slow or stationaryvehicles and objects. Do not use the adaptive cruise control, for example, in city traffic, in dense traffic, atjunctions, on slippery surfaces, with a lotof water or slush on the road, in heavyrain/snow, in poor visibility, on windingroads or on slip roads.
Distance to the vehicle ahead (p. 192) is measured primarily by a radar sensor (p.197). Cruise control regulates the speed withacceleration and braking. It is normal for thebrakes to emit a low sound when they arebeing used by the adaptive cruise control.
WARNING
The brake pedal moves when Cruise Con- trol brakes. Do not rest your foot beneaththe brake pedal as it may become trapped.
The adaptive cruise control aims to follow the vehicle ahead in the same lane at a time inter-val set by the driver. If the radar sensor can-not see any vehicle in front then the car willinstead maintain the cruise control's setspeed. This also happens if the speed of thevehicle in front exceeds the cruise control'sset speed. The adaptive cruise control aims to control the speed in a smooth way. In situations thatdemand sudden braking the driver mustbrake himself/herself. This applies with largedifferences in speed, or if the vehicle in frontbrakes heavily. Due to limitations in the radarsensor (p. 197) braking may come unexpect-edly or not at all. The adaptive cruise control can be activated to follow another vehicle at speeds from 30 km/h 7
up to 200 km/h. If the speed falls
below 30 km/h or if the engine speed becomes too low, the cruise control is set instandby mode (p. 193) at which automaticbraking ceases - the driver must then takeover himself/herself to maintain a safe dis-tance to the vehicle ahead.
Warning lamp - braking by driver required
Adaptive cruise control has a braking capacity that is equivalent to more than 40%of the car's braking capacity.
6 NOTE: The illustration is schematic - details may differ depending on car model.
7 Queue Assistant (p. 195) (in cars with automatic gearbox) can operate in the range of 0-200 km/h.

190* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
If the car needs to be braked more heavily than cruise control capacity and the driverdoes not brake, then cruise control uses thewarning lamp and warning sound from theCollision warning system (p. 212) in order toalert the driver that immediate intervention isrequired.
NOTE
The warning lamp may be difficult to see in strong sunlight or when wearing sun-glasses.
WARNING
Cruise Control warns only of vehicles which the radar sensor has detected.Hence the warning may not be given, or itmay be given with a certain delay. Do notwait for a warning without braking when sorequired.
Steep roads and/or heavy loadBear in mind that the adaptive cruise control is primarily intended for use when driving onlevel road surfaces. It may have difficulty inkeeping the correct distance from the vehicleahead when driving on steep downhill slopes,with a heavy load or with a trailer - in whichcase, be extra attentive and ready to slowdown.

Adaptive cruise control* - overtaking another vehicle
The adaptive cruise control (ACC – Adaptive Cruise Control) helps the driver to maintain aneven speed and a safe distance from the vehi-cle ahead. When the car is following another vehicle and the driver indicates an impending overtaking manoeuvre with the direction indicator 11
, the
adaptive cruise control helps to briefly accel- erate the car towards the vehicle in front. This function is active at speeds above 70 km/h.
WARNING
Be aware that this function can be acti- vated in more situations other than duringovertaking, e.g. when a direction indicatoris used to indicate a change of lane or exitto another road - the car will then acceler-ate briefly.
