Air distribution – function
The air distribution function consists of three buttons.
Manual air distribution—defroster
Manual air distribution—dashboard air vents
Manual air distribution—floor
When a button is pressed, the corresponding figure will appear in the display with an arrowindicating which manual air flow has beenselected (see the following illustration). Seealso the air distribution chart (p. 116).
Air distribution is shown in the center console display

Air distribution – recirculation
Recirculation can be used to shut out exhaust fumes, smoke, etc., from the passenger com-partment.
The air in the passengercompartment is then recircu-lated, i.e., no air from outsidethe car is taken into the carwhen this function is acti-vated. The indicator light inthe button will illuminate
when recirculation is selected. If the air in the car recirculates for too long, there is a risk of condensation forming on theinsides of the windows, especially in winter.
TimerThe timer function minimizes the risk of fog- ging, or stale air when the recirculation func-tion is selected by automatically switching offthe function after a certain length of time,depending on the ambient temperature. Acti-vate/deactivate the function under

NOTE

Condition/situation
Condensation forms on the windows.
The climate system cannot keep the desired settings in the passenger compart-ment.
Electrical current consumption is tempo- rarily high or the main battery's charge isbelow the minimum level.
The brake pedal is pumped repeatedly.

Engine and cooling system
Under special conditions, for example when driving in hilly terrain, extreme heat or withheavy loads, there is a risk that the engine andcooling system will overheat. Proceed as follows to avoid overheating the engine. •Maintain a low speed when driving with a trailer up long, steep hills. For informa-tion, see Towing a trailer (p. 243)
• Do not turn the engine off immediatelywhen stopping after a hard drive.
WARNING
The cooling fan may start or continue to operate (for up to 6 minutes) after theengine has been switched off.
•
Remove any auxiliary lights from in front of the grille when driving in hot weatherconditions.
• Do not exceed engine speeds of4500 rpm if driving with a trailer in hillyterrain. The oil temperature could becometoo high.
Conserving electrical current
Keep the following in mind to help minimize battery drain:
• When the engine is not running, avoid using ignition mode
II. Many electrical
systems (the audio system, the optionalnavigation system, power windows, etc)will function in ignition modes 0 and I.
These modes reduce drain on the battery.
• Please keep in mind that using systems,accessories, etc., that consume a greatdeal of current when the engine is notrunning could result in the battery beingcompletely drained. Driving or having theengine running for approximately15 minutes will help keep the batterycharged.
• The optional area provides electrical cur-rent even with the ignition switched off,which drains the battery.
Before a long distance trip
It is always worthwhile to have your vehicle checked by a trained and qualified Volvo serv-ice technician before driving long distances.Your retailer will also be able to supply youwith bulbs, fuses, spark plugs and wiperblades for your use in the event that problemsoccur. As a minimum, the following items should be checked before any long trip:
• Check that engine runs smoothly and that fuel consumption is normal.
• Check for fuel, oil, and fluid leakage.
• Have the transmission oil level (p. 325)checked.
• Check condition of drive belts.
• Check state of the battery's charge.
• Examine tires carefully (the spare tire aswell), and replace those that areworn (p. 251). Check tire pres-sure (p. 256).
• The brakes, front wheel alignment, andsteering gear should be checked by atrained and qualified Volvo service techni-cian only.
• Check all lights, including high beams.
• Reflective warning triangles are legallyrequired in some states/provinces.
• Have a word with a trained and qualifiedVolvo service technician if you intend to

Economical driving
Better driving economy may be obtained by thinking ahead, avoiding rapid starts andstops and adjusting the speed of your vehicleto immediate traffic conditions.
Handling and roadholding
•Vehicle load, tire design and inflation pressure all affect vehicle handling.Therefore, check that the tires are inflatedto the recommended pressure accordingto the vehicle load. Loads should be dis-tributed so that capacity weight or maxi-mum permissible axle loads are notexceeded.
Related information
•Climate – general information (p. 107)
Towing a trailer
When towing a trailer, always observe the legal requirements of the state/province.
NOTE
For the maximum trailer and tongue weights recommended by Volvo, seeWeights (p. 320).
•All Volvo models are equipped with energy-absorbing shock-mounted bump-ers. Trailer hitch installation should notinterfere with the proper operation of thisbumper system.
Trailer towing does not normally present any particular problems, but take into considera-tion: • Increase tire pressure to recommended full pressure, see Tire inflation – pressuretable (p. 260).
• When your vehicle is new, avoid towingheavy trailers during the first 620 miles(1,000 km).
• Maximum speed when towing a trailer:50 mph (80 km/h).
• Engine and transmission are subject toincreased loads. Therefore, engine cool-ant temperature should be closelywatched when driving in hot climates orhilly terrain. Use a lower gear and turn offthe air conditioner if the temperaturegauge needle enters the red range. •
If the automatic transmission begins tooverheat, a message will be displayed inthe text window.
• Avoid overload and other abusive opera-tion.
• Hauling a trailer affects handling, durabil-ity, and economy.
• It is necessary to balance trailer brakeswith the towing vehicle brakes to providea safe stop (check and observe state/local regulations).
• Do not connect the trailer's brake systemdirectly to the vehicle's brake system.
• More frequent vehicle maintenance isrequired.
• Remove the ball holder when the hitch isnot being used.

Tire Monitor - introduction
Tire Monitor uses the rotational speed of the tires in combination with signal analysis of theABS sensor signals to determine if they areproperly inflated. When a tire is under-inflated, its diameter (and consequently also its rotational speed)changes. By comparing the individual tireswith each other it is possible to determine ifone or more tires are under inflated. When low inflation pressure is detected or if the system is not functioning properly, TireMonitor will light up the tire pressure warning light (
) (also referred to as a telltale) in
the instrument panel and will display one of the following messages in the text window, for example:
Tire pressure low Check rear
right tire4 or Tire press. syst Service
required.
If two or more tires have low pressure or if the system cannot determine which tire has low pressure, a general text (
Tire pressure low
Check tires) will be displayed.
NOTE
If a malfunction occurs in the system, the tire pressure warning light will flash forapproximately 1 minute and then remain illuminated.
Tire press. syst Service
required will be displayed.
NOTE
The system indicates low tire pressure but does not replace normal tire maintenance.For information on correct tire pressure,please refer to the tire inflation pressuretable (see Tire inflation – pressure table(p. 260)), the tire inflation pressure placardlocated on the driver's side B-pillar (thestructural member at the side of the vehi-cle, at the rear of the driver's door open-ing) or consult your Volvo retailer.

Calibrating Tire Monitor
In order for Tire Monitor to work correctly, tire pressure reference values must be set. Thismust be done each time wheels or tire pres-sures are changed.
Calibration1. Switch off the engine.
2. Inflate the tires to the desired pressure
(consult tire pressure placard located on the driver's side B-pillar (the structuralmember at the side of the vehicle) andput the ignition in mode II, see Ignition
modes (p. 69).
3. Press the MY CAR button on the center
console control panel and select
Settings
Car settingsTire monitoring.
4. Press OK/MENU , select
Calibrate tire
pressure and press OK/MENU again.
5. Drive away. > The calibration process will be comple-ted while driving and will be interrupted if the vehicle is parked and the engineis switched off. Calibration continuesautomatically when driving resumes.The system will not give any confirma-tion when calibration is finishedalthough it will state if calibration fails.
4That last part of this message varies, depending on the tire(s) effected.
