Volvo recommends that
mode is used
when the car is being driven, as long as traffic situations or weather conditions are unfavour-able for the active high beam function*.
Instrument lightingDifferent display and instrument lighting isswitched on depending on key position; seeKey positions - functions at different levels (p.70). 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.

Active high beam*
The Active High Beam function detects the headlamp beams of oncoming traffic or therear lights of vehicles in front, and switchesthe lighting from main beam to dipped beam.Xenon headlamps only dim the portion of thelight beam that points directly to the vehicle.The lighting returns to main beam when theincoming light has stopped.
Active high beam - AHBActive high beam (Active High Beam - AHB) isa function which uses a camera sensor at thetop edge of the windscreen to detect theheadlamp beams of oncoming traffic or therear lights of vehicles in front, and thenswitches from main beam to dipped beam.The function can also take streetlights intoaccount. Car with halogen headlamps The lighting returns to main beam about a second after the camera sensor no longerdetects the headlamp beams from oncomingtraffic or the rear lights from vehicles in front. Car with Xenon headlamps Unlike what happens during conventional dimming, the light beam continues with mainbeam on both sides of oncoming traffic orvehicles ahead - only the part of the light

detects on the windscreen. The sensitivity of the rain sensor can be adjusted using thethumbwheel. When the rain sensor is activated a lamp in the button illuminates and the rain sensor symbol
is shown in the combined
instrument panel.
Activating and setting the sensitivityWhen activating the rain sensor, the car must be running or the remote control key in posi-tion I or II while the windscreen wiper stalk
switch must be in position 0 or in the position
for a single sweep. Activate the rain sensor by pressing the but- ton
. The windscreen wipers make one
sweep. Press the stalk switch up for the wipers to make an extra sweep. Turn the thumbwheel upward for higher sen- sitivity and downward for lower sensitivity.(An extra sweep is made when the thumb-wheel is turned upward.)
DeactivateDeactivate the rain sensor by pressing the button
or move the stalk switch down
to another wiper program. The rain sensor is automatically deactivated when the remote control key is removed from the ignition switch or five minutes after theengine has been switched off.
IMPORTANT
The windscreen wipers could start and be damaged in an automatic car wash.Switch off the rain sensor while the car isin motion or when the remote control keyis in position
I or II. The symbol in the
combined instrument panel and the lampin the button go out.
Washing the headlamps and windows
Washing function.
Washing the windscreenMove the stalk switch toward the steering wheel to start the windscreen and headlampwashers. The windscreen wipers will make several more sweeps and the headlamps are washedonce the stalk switch has been released.
Heated washer nozzles*The washer nozzles are heated automaticallyin cold weather to prevent the washer fluidfreezing solid.
High-pressure headlamp washing*High-pressure headlamp washing consumesa large quantity of washer fluid. To save fluid,the headlamps are washed automatically atevery fifth windscreen wash cycle.
Reduced washingIf only approx. 1 litre of washer fluid remainsin the reservoir and the message that youshould fill the washer fluid is shown in thecombined instrument panel, then the supplyof washer fluid to the headlamps is switchedoff. This is in order to prioritise cleaning thewindscreen and the visibility through it.
