. See My Car – introduction
(p. 70) for a description of the menu system. The door mirror will reset to its normal posi- tion: • after 10 seconds when reverse is disen- gaged and the car remains stopped.
• immediately when reverse is disengagedand the vehicle's forward speed exceedsapproximately 6 mph (10 km/h).
• immediately if you press the correspond-ing
L or R button again.
• when the engine is turned off.
• when the side mirrors are folded in.
NOTE
Only one mirror can be tilted down at a time.
Home safe and approach lightingThe light on the door mirrors comes on when approach lighting or home safe lighting isselected, see Approach lighting (p. 91) andHome safe lighting (p. 91).

Press button (1) to defrost/de-ice the wind- shield and/or button (2) to defrost the rearwindow and door mirrors. The indicator lightsin the respective buttons indicate that thefunction is active. Switch the function offwhen then windshield/rear window/mirrorshave cleared to help avoid battery drain. Theheating function will also switch off automati-cally after a certain amount of time. The rear window is then defogged/de-iced (the function will switch on and off automati-cally until the ignition is switched off) if the ambient temperature remains below 45 °F(7 °C).

Climate – general information
The vehicle is equipped with Electronic Cli- mate Control (ECC) (p. 122) 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.
Side windows and moonroofTo ensure that the air conditioning works optimally, the side windows, and the optionalmoonroof should be closed.
Fog on the inside of the windowsThe defroster function (p. 125) should beused 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.
Vents in the parcel shelf
NOTE
The air vents at the rear of the parcel shelf should never be obstructed.
Temporary shut-off of the air conditioning
The air conditioning (p. 125) is momentarily disengaged during full acceleration or whendriving 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.

Interior Air Quality System (IAQS)*
The Air Quality System (IAQS) consists of a multifilter and an air quality sensor. The filterhelps remove gases and particles from theincoming air, thereby reducing the amounts ofodors and contaminants entering the vehicle. The air quality (p. 119) sensor detects increased levels of contaminants in the out-side air. When the air quality sensor detectscontaminated outside air, the air intake closesand the air inside the passenger compart-ment is recirculated, i.e., no outside air entersthe vehicle. The filter also cleans recirculatedpassenger compartment air. When theAUTO (p. 124) button is depressed the air
quality sensor is always engaged. Activate or deactivate this function in
Climate
settings
Interior air quality system.
NOTE
• The air quality sensor should always be engaged in order to obtain the bestair in the passenger compartment.
• Recirculation is limited in cold weatherto avoid 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.

Temperature and blower control
When the vehicle is started, the most recent setting is resumed. The blower should always be activated to help avoid condensation and fogging on thewindows.
Temperature controlThe temperatures on thedriver and passenger sidescan be set separately.
NOTE
Heating or cooling cannot be speeded up by selecting a higher/lower temperaturethan the actual temperature required.
Blower controlTurn the control clockwise to increase or counterclockwiseto decrease the blowerspeed. If AUTO (p. 124) is
selected, blower speed willbe regulated automaticallyand this will override manual
adjustment.
NOTE
If the blower is turned off completely, the air conditioning is disengaged, which mayresult in fogging on the windows.

Air conditioning
The air conditioning function cools and dehu- midifies the air in the passenger compart-ment.
When the indicator light inthe button is on, the air con-ditioning is controlled auto-matically. This cools/heatsand dehumidifies the incom-ing air. When the indicatorlight in the button is off, the
air conditioning is disengaged. Other func-tions are still controlled automatically. Whenmaximum defroster (p. 125) is selected, theair conditioning system is set for maximumblower speed and dehumidifies the cabin asquickly as possible.
