Driver distraction
A driver has a responsibility to do everything possible to ensure his or her own safety andthe safety of passengers in the vehicle andothers sharing the roadway. Avoiding distrac-tions is part of that responsibility. Driver distraction results from driver activities that are not directly related to controlling thevehicle in the driving environment. Your newVolvo is, or can be, equipped with many fea-ture-rich entertainment and communicationsystems. These include hands-free cellulartelephones, navigation systems, and multi-purpose audio systems. You may also ownother portable electronic devices for your ownconvenience. When used properly and safely,they enrich the driving experience. Improperlyused, any of these could cause a distraction. For all of these systems, we want to provide the following warning that reflects the strongVolvo concern for your safety. Never usethese devices or any feature of your vehicle ina way that distracts you from the task of driv-ing safely. Distraction can lead to a seriousaccident. In addition to this general warning,we offer the following guidance regardingspecific newer features that may be found inyour vehicle: •Never use a hand-held cellular telephone while driving. Some jurisdictions prohibit cellular telephone use by a driver whilethe vehicle is moving.
• If your vehicle is equipped with a naviga-tion system, set and make changes toyour travel itinerary only with the vehicleparked.
• Never program your audio system whilethe vehicle is moving. Program radio pre-sets with the vehicle parked, and useyour programmed presets to make radiouse quicker and simpler.
• Never use portable computers or per-sonal digital assistants while the vehicle ismoving.
Accessory installation
• We strongly recommend that Volvo own- ers install only genuine, Volvo-approvedaccessories, and that accessory installa-tions be performed only by a trained andqualified Volvo service technician.
• Genuine Volvo accessories are tested toensure compatibility with the perform-ance, safety, and emission systems inyour vehicle. Additionally, a trained andqualified Volvo service technician knowswhere accessories may and may not besafely installed in your Volvo. In all cases,please consult a trained and qualifiedVolvo service technician before installingany accessory in or on your vehicle. •
Accessories that have not been approvedby Volvo may or may not be specificallytested for compatibility with your vehicle.Additionally, an inexperienced installermay not be familiar with some of yourcar's systems.
• Any of your car's performance and safetysystems could be adversely affected ifyou install accessories that Volvo has nottested, or if you allow accessories to beinstalled by someone unfamiliar with yourvehicle.
• Damage caused by unapproved orimproperly installed accessories may notbe covered by your new vehicle warranty.See your Warranty and Service RecordsInformation booklet for more warrantyinformation. Volvo assumes no responsi-bility for death, injury, or expenses thatmay result from the installation of non-genuine accessories.

The HomeLink 1
Wireless Control System pro-
vides a convenient way to replace up to three hand-held radio-frequency (RF) transmittersused to activate devices such as gate opera-tors, garage door openers, entry door locks,security systems, even home lighting. Addi-tional HomeLink information can be found onthe Internet at www.homelink.com or byphoning the hotline at 1–800–355–3515.
WARNING
• If you use HomeLink to open a garage door or gate, be sure no one is nearthe gate or door while it is in motion.
• When programming a garage dooropener, it is advised to park outside ofthe garage.
• Do not use HomeLink with any garagedoor opener that lacks safety stop andreverse features as required by U.S.federal safety standards (this includesany garage door opener model manu-factured before April 1, 1982). Agarage door that cannot detect anobject - signaling the door to stop andreverse - does not meet current U.S.federal safety standards. For moreinformation, contact HomeLink at:www.homelink.com.
Retain the original transmitter of the RF device you are programming for use in othervehicles as well as for future HomeLink pro-gramming. It is also suggested that upon thesale of the vehicle, the programmed Home-Link buttons be erased for security purposes.Refer to “Resetting HomeLink Buttons” onpage 91.
Programming HomeLink
NOTE
Some vehicles may require the ignition to be switched on or be in the “accessories”position for programming and/or operationof HomeLink. It is also recommended thata new battery be placed in the hand-heldtransmitter of the device being pro-grammed to HomeLink for quicker trainingand accurate transmission of the radio-fre-quency signal. The HomeLink buttonsmust be reset first. When this has beencompleted, Homelink is in learning modeso that you can perform programming.
1. Position the end of your hand-held trans-
mitter 1–3 inches (5–14 cm) away from the HomeLink button you wish to pro-gram while keeping the indicator light inview.
2. Simultaneously press and hold both the chosen HomeLink and hand-held trans-mitter buttons until the HomeLink indica-tor light changes from a slow to a rapidlyblinking light. Now you may release boththe HomeLink and hand-held transmitterbuttons.

Climate system blower
The climate system blower will be automati- cally switched off when the engine is not run-ning (even if the ignition key is in position I or
II ) to avoid unnecessary battery drain. To
activate the blower, turn the control to thedesired setting. The climate system blower may start auto- matically during a period of up to approxi-mately 50 minutes after the ignition has beenturned off to remove condensation in the A/Cevaporator. It will run for 15 minutes andswitch off automatically.
Passenger compartment blower
Approximately 50 minutes after the ignition is turned off, the blower may come on automati-cally, and run for seven minutes, to removecondensation in the A/C evaporator.
Blower function to reduce battery drain
The climate system's blower functions nor- mally while the engine is running. However, when the engine is switched off (even if the ignition is switched to positions I
or II), the blower control will be automatically
switched off to avoid unnecessary batterydrain. The following points pertain if the ignition ison but the engine in not running:
• To restart the blower, turn the control knob to the setting of your choice.
• After approximately 2 minutes, the blowerspeed will be reduced to avoid batterydrain.
You can reset the blower speed at any time. Please be aware that the system has beendesigned to reduce the blower's speed againafter 2 minutes, until the engine is started. If the battery becomes drained: • LOW BATTERY, FAN IS REDUCED
will
be displayed in the text window in the instrument panel.
• The yellow warning light in the instrumentpanel (see page 58) will also light up.
