Voice control
Voice commands make it possible for the driver to voice-control certain functions in the mediaplayer, a Bluetooth-connected cell phone, cli- mate system and the Volvo navigation system *.
Voice control offers convenience and enables the driver to keep his/her hands on the steeringwheel and concentrate on driving and the trafficsituation around the vehicle.
WARNING
As the driver, you have full responsibility for operating the vehicle safely and adhering toall applicable traffic regulations.
Input to the system is in dialog form and compri- ses commands from the driver and a verbalresponse from the system. The voice control system uses the same micro- phone as the Bluetooth hands-free system and system responses come via the infotainment sys-tem's speakers. In certain cases, text messages are also provided in the instrument panel. The functions are controlled using the right-side steering wheel keypad and settings are madefrom the center console.
System updatesThe voice control system is being constantly improved and updates should be downloaded foroptimal functionality. See the article "Systemupdates" and the Volvo Cars support sitesupport.volvocars.com.

Perceived temperature
The climate system regulates passenger com- partment temperature based on the perceivedtemperature, not on the actual one.
The selected passenger compartment tempera- ture is based on a physical perception relating tothe current ambient temperature, air flow, humid-ity, sunlight in the passenger compartment, etc. The system's sunlight sensor monitors the side of the car where sunlight is entering the passengercompartment. This means that the actual tem-perature may differ between the right and leftsides of the compartment, even if the tempera-ture setting is the same for both sides.

Clean Zone Interior Package (CZIP) *
The Clean Zone Interior Package includes a number of features that help further reduce aller-genic substances in the passenger compart-ment.
CZIP includes the following:
• An enhanced blower function that starts the blower when the vehicle is unlocked with theremote key to fill the passenger compart-ment with fresh air. This function starts auto-matically when required and shuts off auto-matically after a short period or if one thedoors is opened. The time for which theblower operates decreases gradually due toreduced need until the vehicle is four yearsold.
• The Interior Air Quality System (IAQS).
NOTE
In order to retain the CZIP standard, the IAQS filter must be replaced at the specified inter-vals. Consult your Volvo retailer.
See also the CZIP brochure for additional infor- mation.
Interior Air Quality System (IAQS)
*
The Interior Air Quality System uses a multifilter and an air quality sensor to remove gases, parti-cles and other contaminants from the air enter-ing the passenger compartment.
The IAQS sensor monitors increased levels of contaminants in the outside air and if contami-nants are detected, the air intake closes and theair inside the passenger compartment is recircu-lated, i.e., no outside air enters the vehicle. The fil-ter also cleans recirculated passenger compart-ment air.
NOTE
• The air quality sensor should always be engaged in order to obtain the best air inthe passenger compartment.
• Recirculation is limited in cold weather toavoid fogging.
• If the insides of the windows start fog-ging, disengage the air quality sensor.Use the defroster function to increaseairflow to the front, side, and rear win-dows.
NOTE
In order to retain the CZIP standard, the IAQS filter must be replaced at the specified inter-vals. Consult your Volvo retailer.
Activating/deactivating IAQSTo change the setting for IAQS activation/deacti- vation:
1. In the center display's Settings view, go to
Climate.
2. Activate/deactivate IAQS by selecting/dese- lecting the
Air Quality Sensor box.
