WARNING
•No objects or accessory equipment, e.g. dashboard covers, may be placedon, attached to, or installed near theair bag hatch (the area above the glovecompartment) or the area affected byairbag deployment.
• There should be no loose articles,such as coffee cups on the floor, seat,or dashboard area.
• Never try to open the airbag cover onthe steering wheel or the passenger'sside dashboard. This should only bedone by a trained and qualified Volvoservice technician.
• Failure to follow these instructions canresult in injury to the vehicle occu-pants.

Occupant Weight Sensor
The Occupant Weight Sensor (OWS) is designed to meet the regulatory requirementsof Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard(FMVSS) 208 and is designed to disable (willnot inflate) the passenger's side front airbagunder certain conditions.

Occupant Weight Sensor (OWS) indicator light
Disabling the passenger's side front
airbag
Volvo recommends that ALL occupants (adults and children) shorter than 4 feet7 inches (140 cm) be seated in the back seatof any vehicle with a front passenger side air-bag (p. 33), and be properly restrained fortheir size and weight. For child safety recom-mendations, see Child safety (p. 46). The OWS works with sensors that are part of the front passenger's seat and seatbelt (p. 28). The sensors are designed to detect the presence of a properly seatedoccupant and determine if the passenger'sside front airbag should be enabled (mayinflate) or disabled (will not inflate). The OWS will disable (will not inflate) the pas- senger's side front airbag when:
• the front passenger's seat is unoccupied, or has small/medium objects in the frontseat,
• the system determines that an infant ispresent in a rear-facing infant seat that isinstalled according to the manufacturer'sinstructions,
• the system determines that a small childis present in a forward-facing childrestraint that is installed according to themanufacturer's instructions,
• the system determines that a small childis present in a booster seat,
• a front passenger takes his/her weight offof the seat for a period of time,
• a child or a small person occupies thefront passenger's seat.
The OWS uses a PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF indicator lamp which will illuminate and stayon to remind you that the passenger's sidefront airbag is disabled. The PASSENGERAIRBAG OFF indicator lamp is located in theoverhead console, near the base of the rear-view mirror.

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.

Air quality
The passenger compartment has been designed to be pleasant and comfortable,even for people with asthma and contactallergies.
Passenger compartment filterReplace the cabin air filter with a new one atthe recommended intervals. Please refer toyour Warranty and Service Records Informa-tion booklet, or consult a trained and qualifiedVolvo service technician for these intervals.The filter should be replaced more often whendriving under dirty and dusty conditions. Thefilter cannot be cleaned and therefore shouldalways be replaced with a new one.
NOTE
There are different types of cabin air filters. Ensure that the correct type is installed.
Interior Air Quality System (IAQS)A multifilter helps reduce gases and particles in the incoming air, thereby reducing the lev-els of odors and contaminants entering thevehicle. The air quality sensor detectsincreased 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.
NOTE
Contact your Volvo retailer for IAQS air fil- ter replacement intervals.
Materials used in the cabinThe materials used in the cabin have been developed to help minimize the amount ofdust and make the cabin easier to keepclean. All floor mats can be easily removedfor cleaning. Use car cleaning products rec-ommended by Volvo. See also the informa-tion in Cleaning the interior (p. 358).

Air distribution – general
The incoming air is distributed through a number of different vents in the passengercompartment.
Air distribution is fully automatic in AUTO
mode (p. 124). If desired, air distribution can be controlled manually, see Air distribution – function(p. 126).

NOTE
• Triangular areas at the far sides of the windshield are not heated electricallyand will take slightly longer todefrost/de-ice.
• The heated windshield may affect theperformance/range of e.g., transpond-ers used to automatically pay highwaytolls or other communication equip-ment.
The following occurs when the defroster/ windshield heating functions have been acti-vated: •
Blower speed increases automatically and the air conditioning (p. 125) willswitch on (if not already on and if the pas-senger compartment blower is not turnedoff) to dehumidify the air in the passengercompartment. Air conditioning can beswitched off by pressing the
AC button.
• Recirculation (p. 127) will not functionwhile defrost is engaged.
The climate system will return to its previous
settings when the defroster/windshield heat- ing function is switched off. See also Heated windshield*, rear window and door mirror defrosters (p. 98) for addi-tional information.
