Options/accessoriesAll types of option/accessory are marked with an asterisk*. In addition to standard equipment, the owner's manual also describes options (fac-tory fitted equipment) and certain accessories(retrofitted extra equipment). The equipment described in the owner's manual is not available in all cars - they havedifferent equipment depending on adapta-tions for the needs of different markets andnational or local laws and regulations. In the event of uncertainty over what is stand- ard or an option/accessory, contact a Volvodealer.
Special texts
WARNING
Warning texts appear if there is a risk of injury.
IMPORTANT
"Important" texts appear if there is a risk of damage.
NOTE
NOTE texts give advice or tips that facili- tate the use of e.g. features and functions.
FootnoteThere is footnote information in the owner's manual that is located at the bottom of thepage. This information is an addition to thetext that it refers to via a number. If the foot-note refers to text in a table then letters areused instead of numbers for referral.
Message textsThere are displays in the car that show textmessages. These text messages are high-lighted in the owner's manual by means ofthe text being slightly larger and printed ingrey. Examples of this are in menu texts andmessage texts on the information display (e.g.
Audio settings).
DecalsThe car contains different types of decal which are designed to convey importantinformation in a simple and clear manner. Thedecals in the car have the following descend-ing degree of importance for the warning/information.
Warning for personal injury

Inflatable Curtain (IC)
The inflatable curtain helps to prevent the driver and passengers from striking theirheads on the inside of the car during a colli-sion.
Inflatable curtain IC (Inflatable Curtain) is part of the SIPS system (p. 31) and the airbag sys-tem (p. 28). It is fitted in the headlining alongboth sides of the roof and protects the car'soccupants sitting in the outer seats. A suffi-ciently violent collision trips the sensors andthe inflatable curtain is inflated.
WARNING
Never hang or attach heavy items onto the handles in the roof. The hook is onlydesigned for light clothing (not for solidobjects such as umbrellas for example). Do not screw or install anything onto the car's headlining, door pillars or side pan-els. This could compromise the intendedprotection. Volvo recommends that youonly ever use Volvo genuine parts that areapproved for placement in these areas.
WARNING
Do not load the car higher than 50 mm under the top edge of the door windows.Otherwise, the intended protection of theinflatable curtain, which is concealed in theheadlining, may be compromised.
WARNING
The inflatable curtain is a supplement to the seatbelts. Always use a seatbelt.

Manual lowering of the outer head restraints, rear seat
Pull the locking handle closest to the head restraint to fold the head restraint forward. The head restraint is moved back manually until a "click" can be heard.
WARNING
The head restraints must be in locked position after being raised.
Lowering the rear seat backrest
IMPORTANT
There must be no objects on the rear seat when the backrest is to be folded down.The seat belts must not be connectedeither. Otherwise there is a risk of damag-ing the rear seat upholstery.
The triple-section backrest can be folded in different ways.
NOTE
The front seats may need to be pushed forwards, and/or the backrests adjustedupwards, in order that the rear backrestscan be folded forward fully.
•The left-hand section can be folded sepa- rately.
• The centre section can be folded sepa-rately.
• The right-hand section can only be foldedtogether with the centre section.
• If the entire backrest is to be folded thenthe different sections should be foldedseparately.If the centre backrest is being lowered - release and adjust the head restraint forthe centre backrest, see the earlier sec-tion "Head restraint, centre seat, rear".
The outer head restraints are lowered automatically when the outer backrestsare lowered. Pull up the backrest's lock- ing handle
while folding the backrest
forward at the same time. A red indicator on the lock catch
shows that the
backrest is no longer locked in place.
NOTE
When the backrests have been lowered the head restraints must be moved for-ward slightly so as not to make contactwith the seat cushion.
Raising takes place in reverse order.

WARNING
This system help to save energy - it cannot determine in all situations when daylight istoo weak or sufficiently strong, e.g. in mistand rain. The driver is always responsible for ensur- ing that the car is driven with its lights in acorrect state and in accordance with appli-cable traffic regulations.
Tunnel detection*
In markets without automatic dipped beam, tunnel detection activates dipped beam whendriving into a tunnel. Dipped beam is deacti-vated approx. 20 seconds after the car hasbeen driven out of the tunnel. The tunnel detection function is available in cars with rain sensor*. The sensor detects theentrance to a tunnel and resets the lightingfrom daytime running lights to dipped beam.Approx. 20 seconds after the car has left thetunnel, the lighting returns to daytime runninglights. If the car is driven into another tunnelwithin this time period then dipped beam iskept switched on. This avoids repeatedchanges to the car's light settings. Note that the headlamp control's knob must remain in
position for tunnel detection
to work.

Main/dipped beam
With the knob for headlamp control in posi- tion

key position II or the engine running, the
dipped beam is activated automatically in poor light conditions. With the knob for headlamp control in posi- tion

are shown. The
symbol goes out when
these messages are shown. AHB may be temporarily unavailable e.g. in situations with dense fog or heavy rain. WhenAHB becomes available again, or the wind-screen sensors are no longer blocked, the message extinguishes and the
symbol
illuminates.
WARNING
AHB is an aid for using optimum light composition when conditions are favoura-ble. The driver always bears responsibility for manually switching between main anddipped beam when traffic situations orweather conditions so require.
IMPORTANT
Examples of when manual switching between main and dipped beam may berequired:
• In heavy rain or dense fog
• In freezing rain
• In snow flurries or slush
• In moonlight
• When driving in poorly lit built-up areas
• When the traffic ahead has weak light-ing
• If there are pedestrians on or besidethe road
• If there are highly reflective objectssuch as signs in the vicinity of the road
• When the lighting from oncoming traf-fic is obscured by e.g. a crash barrier
• When there is traffic on connectingroads
• On the brow of a hill or in a hollow
• In sharp bends.

Active Xenon headlamps*
Active Xenon headlamps are designed to pro- vide maximum illumination in bends and junc-tions and so provide increased safety.
Active Xenon headlamps ABL
Headlamp pattern with function deactivated (left) and activated (right) respectively.
If the car is equipped with active Xenon head- lamps (Active Bending Lights – ABL) the lightfrom the headlamps follows the steeringwheel movement in order to provide maxi-mum lighting in bends and junctions and soprovide increased safety. The function is activated automatically when the car is started (provided that it has notbeen deactivated in the menu systemMY CAR), see MY CAR (p. 103). In the event of a fault in the function the
