Some engine and gearbox combinations are equipped with a Start/Stop function whichengages in the event of e.g. stationary trafficor waiting at traffic lights. An auto-stoppedengine may restart in certain cases withoutthe driver having decided that the journeyshould continue. In the following cases the engine also starts automatically if the driver has not depressedthe clutch pedal (manual gearbox) or takeshis/her foot off the brake pedal (automaticgearbox):

Start/Stop* - involuntary engine stoppage manual gearbox
Some engine and gearbox combinations are equipped with a Start/Stop function whichengages in the event of e.g. stationary trafficor waiting at traffic lights. In the event that astart-up fails and the engine stops, proceed inaccordance with the below:
1. Depress the clutch pedal again - the
engine starts automatically.
2. In certain cases the gear lever must be set in neutral position. The combined instrument panel then shows the text
Put
gear in neutral.

WARNING
If and illuminate at the same
time, there may be a fault in the brake sys- tem. If the level in the brake fluid reservoir is normal at this stage, drive carefully to thenearest workshop and have the brake sys-tem checked - an authorised Volvo work-shop is recommended. If the brake fluid is below the MIN level in
the brake fluid reservoir, do not drive fur- ther before topping up the brake fluid. The reason for the loss of brake fluid must be investigated.

Foot brake - anti-lock braking system
The anti-lock braking system, ABS (Anti-lock Braking System), prevents the wheels fromlocking up during braking. The function allows steering ability to be maintained, and it is easier to swerve to avoida hazard for example. Vibration may be felt inthe brake pedal when this is engaged and thisis normal. A short test of the ABS system is made auto- matically after the engine has been startedwhen the driver releases the brake pedal. Afurther automatic test of the ABS system maybe made when the car reaches 10 km/h. Thetest may be experienced as pulses in thebrake pedal.

Foot brake - emergency brake lights and automatic hazard warningflashers
Emergency brake lights are activated to alert vehicles behind about sudden braking. Thefunction means that the brake light flashesinstead of - as in normal braking - shining witha constant glow. Emergency brake lights are activated at speeds above 50 km/h in the event of suddenbraking. After the car's speed has beenslowed below 10 km/h the brake light returnsfrom flashing to the normal constant glow -while at the same time the hazard warningflashers (p. 86) are activated, and they flashuntil the driver changes engine speed with theaccelerator pedal or they are deactivated withtheir button.

Foot brake - emergency brake assistance
Emergency brake assistance EBA (Emergency Brake Assist) helps to increase the brakingforce and so reduce the braking distance. EBA detects the driver's braking style and increases the braking force when necessary.The brake force can be reinforced up to thelevel when the ABS system is engaged. TheEBA function is interrupted when the pressureon the brake pedal is reduced.
NOTE
When EBA is activated the brake pedal lowers slightly more than usual, depress(hold) the brake pedal as long as neces-sary. If the brake pedal is released then allbraking ceases.

Do not tow a heavy trailer when the car is brand new. Wait until it has been drivenat least 1000 km.
• The brakes are loaded much more thanusual on long and steep downhill slopes.Downshift to a lower gear and adjust yourspeed.
• For safety reasons, the maximum permit-ted speed for the car when coupled witha trailer should not be exceeded. Followthe regulations in force for the permittedspeeds and weights.
• Maintain a low speed when driving with atrailer up long, steep ascents.
• Avoid driving with a trailer on inclines ofmore than 12%.
Trailer cableAn adapter is required if the car's towing bracket has 13 pin electrics and the trailerhas 7 pin electrics. Use an adapter cableapproved by Volvo. Make sure the cable doesnot drag on the ground.

trailer text is shown.
Level control*The rear shock absorbers maintain a constant height irrespective of the car's load (up to themaximum permissible weight). When the caris stationary the rear of the car lowers slightly,which is normal.
Trailer weightsFor information on Volvo's permitted trailerweights, see Towing capacity and towballload (p. 391).
NOTE
The stated maximum permitted trailer weights are those permitted by Volvo.National vehicle regulations can furtherlimit trailer weights and speeds. Towbarscan be certified for higher towing weightsthan the car can actually tow.
WARNING
Follow the stated recommendations for trailer weights. Otherwise, the car andtrailer may be difficult to control in theevent of sudden movement and braking.

Lamp replacement
Lamp replacement can be carried out for bulbs. When replacing LED and Xenon lamps,please refer to a workshop. The bulbs are specified (p. 358). The follow- ing list contains locations of bulbs and otherlight sources that are specialised, such as LED 10
lamps, or are unsuitable for changing
for some other reason, except at a workshop:
• Active Xenon headlamps - ABL (Xenon lamps)
• Daytime running lights/Position/parkinglamps front
• Side marker lamps front
• Cornering lights
• Side direction indicators, door mirrors
• Approach lighting, door mirrors
• Interior lighting apart from Courtesy light-ing front
• Glovebox lighting
• Position/parking lamps rear/Side markerlamps rear
• Brake light.WARNING
On cars with Xenon headlamps, the replacement of Xenon lamps must be car-ried out at a workshop - an authorisedVolvo workshop is recommended. Workingwith Xenon lamps demands extreme cau-tion because the headlamp is equippedwith a high voltage unit.
WARNING
The car's electrical system must be in key position
0 for bulb replacement; see Key
positions - functions at different levels (p.70).
IMPORTANT
Never touch the glass part of the bulbs with your fingers. Grease from your fingersis vaporised by the heat, coating thereflector and then causing damage.
NOTE
If an error message remains after the bro- ken bulb has been replaced then we rec-ommend that you visit an authorised Volvoworkshop.
