* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.107
Climate – general information
The vehicle is equipped with Electronic Cli- mate Control (ECC) (p. 110) that cools, heatsor dehumidifies the air in the passenger com-partment.
Air conditioning
NOTE
• The air conditioning can be switched off, but to ensure the best possible cli-mate comfort in the passenger com-partment and to prevent the windowsfrom misting, it should always be on.
• In warm weather, a small amount ofwater may accumulate under the carwhen it has been parked. This water iscondensation from the A/C systemand is normal.
Fog on the inside of the windowsThe defroster function (p. 112) should be used to remove fog or mist from the inside ofthe windows. Keeping the windows cleanwith a commercially available window wash-ing spray will also help prevent fogging ormisting.
Temporary shut-off of the air conditioning
The air conditioning (p. 112) is momentarily disengaged during full acceleration or when driving uphill with a trailer. This may result ina temporary increase in cabin temperature.
Ice and snowAlways keep the air intake grille at the base ofthe windshield free of snow.
Climate system maintenanceSpecial tools and equipment are required tomaintain and carry out repairs on the climatesystem. Work of this type should only bedone by a trained and qualified Volvo servicetechnician.
RefrigerantVolvo cares about the environment. The airconditioning system in your car contains aCFC-free refrigerant – R134a. This substancewill not deplete the ozone layer. The air con-ditioning system contains 1.76 lbs (800 g) ofR134a. The systems uses PAG oil.

Climate – sensors
The climate system utilizes a number of sen- sors to help regulate the temperature andhumidity level in the passenger compartment.
Sensor location
• The sunlight sensor is located on the top side of the dashboard.
NOTE
The sunlight sensor monitors which side of the car that is most exposed to sunlight.This can mean that the temperature maydiffer between the right and left-side airvents, even if the temperatures set for bothsides of the passenger compartment arethe same.
•The temperature sensor for the passen- ger compartment is located below the cli-mate control panel.
• The outside (ambient) temperature sensoris located on the door mirror.
• The humidity sensor* is located in theinterior rearview mirror.
NOTE
Do not cover or block the sensors with clothing or other objects.

drive in countries where it may be difficult to obtain the correct fuel.
• Consider your destination. If you will bedriving through an area where snow or iceare likely to occur, consider snowtires (p. 265).

Driving in cold weather
Check your vehicle before the approach of cold weather. The following advice is worth noting:
• Make sure that the engine cool- ant (p. 288) contains 50 percent anti-freeze. Any other mixture will reducefreeze protection. This gives protectionagainst freezing down to –31 °F (–35 °C).The use of "recycled" antifreeze is notapproved by Volvo. Different types ofantifreeze must not be mixed.
• Volvo recommends using only genuineVolvo antifreeze in your vehicle's radiator.
• Try to keep the fuel tank well filled – thishelps prevent the formation of condensa-tion in the tank. In addition, in extremelycold weather conditions it is worthwhileto add fuel line de-icer before refueling.
• The viscosity of the engine oil is impor-tant. Oil with low viscosity (thinner oil)improves cold-weather starting as well asdecreasing fuel consumption while theengine is warming up. Full synthetic0W-30 oil is recommended for driving inareas with sustained low temperatures.
• The load placed on the battery is greaterduring the winter since the windshieldwipers, lighting, etc., are used moreoften. Moreover, the capacity of the bat-tery decreases as the temperature drops.In very cold weather, a poorly chargedbattery can freeze and be damaged. It is therefore advisable to check the state ofcharge more frequently and spray an anti-rust oil on the battery posts.
• Volvo recommends the use of snow tireson all four wheels for winter driving, seeSnow tires/studded tires (p. 265).
• To prevent the washer fluid (p. 295)reser-voir from freezing, add washer solventscontaining antifreeze. This is importantsince dirt is often splashed on the wind-shield during winter driving, requiring thefrequent use of the washers and wipers.Volvo Washer Solvent should be dilutedas follows: Down to 14 °F (–10 °C): 1 partwasher solvent and 4 parts water Downto 5 °F (–15 °C): 1 part washer solventand 3 parts water Down to 0 °F (–18 °C):1 part washer solvent and 2 parts waterDown to –18 °F (–28 °C): 1 part washersolvent and 1 part water.
• Use Volvo Teflon Lock Spray in the locks.
• Avoid using de-icing sprays as they cancause damage to the locks.

WARNING
Before performing any operations in the engine compartment, the ignition shouldalways be completely switched off (inmode 0, see Ignition modes (p. 69)) and
there should be no remote keys in the pas-senger compartment. The gear selectorshould be in the P (park) position. If the
engine has been running, wait until it hascooled before touching any components inthe engine compartment. The distributor ignition system operates at very high voltages. Special safety precau-tions must be followed to prevent injury.Always turn the ignition off when:
• Replacing distributor ignition compo- nents e.g. plugs, coil, etc.
• Do not touch any part of the distributorignition system while the engine is run-ning. This may result in unintendedmovements and body injury.

Engine compartment – engine oil
The correct oil must be used for the stated oil change (service) intervals to apply. The oil level on 4-cylinder engines is checked electronically and is checked using a dipstickon 5- and 6-cylinder engines.
Checking the engine oil (5- and 6-
cylinder engines)
The oil level should be checked at regularintervals, particularly during the period up tothe first scheduled maintenance service.
• See Oil specifications (p. 323) for oil specifications.
• Also, refer to the Warranty and ServiceRecords information booklet for informa-tion on oil change intervals and oil speci-fications.
CAUTION
•Not checking the oil level regularly can result in serious engine damage if theoil level becomes too low.
• Oil that is lower than the specifiedquality can damage the engine.
• Volvo does not recommend the use ofoil additives.
• Always add oil of the same type andviscosity as already used.
• Never fill oil above the
MAX mark. This
could cause an increase in oil con-sumption.
• Oil changes should be carried out by atrained and qualified Volvo servicetechnician.

WARNING
Do not allow oil to spill onto or come into contact with hot exhaust pipe surfaces.
Electronically checking the oil levelThe oil level should be checked at regular intervals, particularly during the period up tothe first scheduled maintenance service. To check the oil level:
1. Activate ignition mode II, see Ignition
modes (p. 69).
2. Turn the thumb wheel on the left steering wheel lever until
Oil level is displayed.
> The oil level will be displayed.
NOTE
• The system cannot detect changes in the oil level immediately. The vehiclemust be driven approximately 20 miles(30 km) or have been parked on levelground with the engine off for5 minutes before the oil level readingwill be correct.
• If the necessary conditions are not metfor checking the oil level electronically(time interval after the engine wasswitched off, if the vehicle is parked on an incline, etc.),
No values availablewill be displayed. This does
not indi-
cate a problem with the oil level sen- sor.
Engine compartment – coolant
Normally, the coolant does not need to be changed. If the system must be drained, con-sult a trained and qualified Volvo service tech-nician.
Level check and fillingSee Fuel tank volume – specification and vol-ume (p. 325) for information on cooling sys-tem capacities.
CAUTION
• If necessary, top up the cooling sys- tem with Volvo Genuine Coolant/Anti-freeze only (a 50/50 mix of water andantifreeze).
• Different types of antifreeze/coolantmay not be mixed.
• If the cooling system is drained, itshould be flushed with clean water orpremixed anti-freeze before it is refilledwith the correct mixture of water/anti-freeze.
• The cooling system must always bekept filled to the correct level, and thelevel must be between the
MIN and
MAX marks. If it is not kept filled, there
can be high local temperatures in theengine which could result in damage.Check coolant regularly!
• Do not top up with water only. Thisreduces the rust-protective and anti-freeze qualities of the coolant and hasa lower boiling point. It can also causedamage to the cooling system if itshould freeze.
• Do not use chlorinated tap water in thevehicle's cooling system.

Protecting leather upholstery1. Put a small amount of protectant creamon a cloth and apply a thin coating of cream to the upholstery with light circularmovements.
2. Allow the leather to dry for 20 minutes. This will help the leather resist staining and protect against sunlight's harmful UV rays.
CAUTION
• Under no circumstances should gaso- line, naphtha or similar cleaning agentsbe used on the plastic or the leathersince these can cause damage.
• Take extra care when removing stainssuch as ink or lipstick since the color-ing can spread.
• Use solvents sparingly. Too much sol-vent can damage the seat padding.
• Start from the outside of the stain andwork toward the center.
• Sharp objects (e.g. pencils or pens in apocket) or Velcro fasteners on clothingmay damage the textile upholstery.
• Clothing that is not colorfast, such asnew jeans or suede garments, maystain the upholstery.
Cleaning a leather-covered steering wheel
•
Remove soil, dust, etc., with a damp sponge and a neutral soap solution.
• Leather should be allowed to breath.Never cover the steering wheel with aplastic protector.
• Volvo recommends cleaning, protectingand conditioning the steering wheel withVolvo's Leather Care Kit 951 0251 andLeather Softener 943 7429.
If there are stains on the steering wheel: Type 1 (ink, wine, coffee, milk, sweat or
blood)
–Use a soft cloth or sponge. Wipe the wheel with a solution with 5% ammonia.For blood stains, mix approx. 1 cup (2 dl)of water and one ounce (25g) of salt andwipe the stain.
Type 2 (fat, oil, sauces, or chocolate)
1. Same procedure as for type I stains.
2. Finish by rubbing the wheel with absorb- ent paper or a towel.
Type 3 (dry soil or dust)
1. Remove the soil/dust with a soft brush.
2. Same procedure as for type I stains.
CAUTION
Sharp objects, such as rings, could dam- age the leather on the steering wheel.
Cleaning the seat beltsClean only with lukewarm water and a mild soap solution.
Cleaning floor matsThe floor mats should be vacuumed orbrushed clean regularly, especially duringwinter when they should be taken out for dry-ing. Spots on textile mats can be removedwith a mild detergent. For best protection inwinter, Volvo recommends the use of Volvorubber floor mats. Consult your Volvo retailer.
