The display lighting is automatically subdued in darkness - the sensitivity is set with thethumbwheel. The intensity of the instrument lighting is adjusted with the thumbwheel.
Headlamp levellingThe load in the car changes the vertical align-ment of the headlamp beam, which coulddazzle oncoming motorists. Avoid this byadjusting the height of the beam. Lower thebeam if the car is heavily laden. 1. Leave the engine running, or have the
car's electrical system in key position I.
2. Roll the thumbwheel up/down to raise/ lower beam alignment.

Trip computer - supplementary information
The car's trip computer can record, calculate and show information while driving. Supple-mentary information of several functions fol-lows below.
AverageAverage fuel consumption is calculated fromthe last resetting.
NOTE
There may be a slight error in the reading if a fuel-driven heater* has been used.
Average speedThe average speed is calculated for the driv- ing distance driven since the last reset tozero.
InstantaneousThe information for current fuel consumptionis updated continuously - approximately onceper second. When the car is driven at lowspeed the consumption is shown per timeunit - at a higher speed it is shown related tomileage. Different units (km/miles) can be selected for the display - see the section "Change unit" (p.112).
Range - distance to empty tankThe trip computer shows the approximatedistance that can be driven with the fuelquantity remaining in the tank. No guaranteed range remains when the head- ing
Distance to empty shows "----".
–In which case, refuel as soon as possible.
The calculation is based on the average fuel consumption over the last 30 km and theremaining driveable fuel quantity.
NOTE
There may be a slight error in the reading if the driving style has been changed.
An economic driving style generally results in a longer driving distance. For more informa-tion on how fuel consumption can be influ-enced, see Volvo Car Corporation 's Environ-mental Philosophy (p. 19).
Digital speed display 29The speed is shown in the opposite unit(kmh/mph) in relation to the main instrument.If it is calibrated in mph then the trip com-puter shows the corresponding speed inkm/h and vice versa.
Resetting with "Analog"With current trip computer heading - Tripmeter T1, Trip meter T2 or Average speed -shown in the combined instrument panel:
–Give a long press on
RESET - selected
heading is zeroed.
Each heading must be zeroed individually.
