Lever for releasing/locking the steering wheel
Possible positions
To adjust the steering wheel's height and reach:
1. Pull the lever toward you to release the steering wheel.
2. Adjust the steering wheel to the position that suits you. 3. Push back the lever to lock the steering
wheel in place. If the lever is difficult to push into place, press the steering wheellightly at the same time as you push thelever.
WARNING
Never adjust the steering wheel while driv- ing.
With the optional speed-dependent power steering the level of steering force can beadjusted, see Active chassis* (Four C)(p. 162).

Active chassis* (Four C)
Active chassis, Four-C (Continuously Controlled Chassis Concept), regulates thecharacteristics of the shock absorbers so thatthe vehicle's driving characteristics can beadjusted. There are three settings: Comfort,Sport and Advanced.
Operation
Chassis settings
Use the buttons in the center console to change setting. The setting in use when theengine is switched off is activated the nexttime the engine is started.
ComfortComfort mode offers a somewhat softer ride and the transmission shifts gears at lowerrpm. This mode is particularly suitable forlong-distance highway driving. The indicatorlight in the button will be on when this modeis selected.
SportIn this mode, the vehicle's body sway is reduced during cornering and steeringresponse is more immediate. The transmis-sion shifts up at higher rpm for sportier driv-ing. The indicator light in the button will be onto indicate that Sport mode has beenselected.
AdvancedIn this mode, body sway in curves is minimal and steering response is very direct. Gearshifting is done at high rpm in each gear fordynamic and active driving.

Stability system – introduction
The Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system consists of a number of functions designed tohelp reduce wheel spin, counteract skiddingand to generally help improve directional sta-bility.
A pulsating sound will be audiblewhen the system is actively operat-ing and is normal. Acceleration willalso be slightly slower than normal.
WARNING
ESC is a supplementary aid and cannot deal with all situations or road conditions. The driver is always responsible for oper- ating the vehicle in a safe manner inaccordance with current traffic regulations.
ESC consists of the following functions:
• Traction control
• Spin control
• Active Yaw Control
Traction Control (TC)This function is designed to help reduce wheel spin at low speeds by transferringpower from a drive wheel that begins to losetraction to the wheel on the opposite side ofthe vehicle (on the same axle).

Adjustable steering force*
Steering force increases with the speed of the vehicle to give the driver enhanced sense ofcontrol and stability. At low speed the vehicleis easy to steer in order to facilitate parking,etc.

description of the menu system, My Car – introduction (p. 70).
NOTE
This steering force level menu function cannot be accessed when the vehicle is inmotion.
NOTE
In certain situations, the power steering may become too warm and will have to betemporarily cooled down. While this ishappening, the power steering effect willbe reduced slightly and somewhat moreeffort may be required to turn the steeringwheel. If this occurs, a message will be displayed in the instrument panel.

Road Sign Information (RSI)* – introduction
RSI is a feature that helps the driver see road signs with the posted speed limit.
Introduction
Examples of readable road signs If the vehicle passes a sign showing the speed limit, this will be displayed in the centerconsole.
WARNING
RSI does not function in all situations and is only intended to provide supplementaryinformation. The driver is always responsible for oper- ating the vehicle safely.

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. 267)
• 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 12-volt socket in thetrunk (p. 135) 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. 362)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. 275). Check tire pres-sure (p. 282).
• 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

CAUTION
The maximum trailer weights listed are only applicable for altitudes up to 3,280 ft(1000 m) above sea level. With increasingaltitude the engine power and thereforethe car's climbing ability are impairedbecause of the reduced air density, so themaximum trailer weight has to be reducedaccordingly. The weight of the vehicle andtrailer must be reduced by 10% for everyfurther 3,280 ft (1000 m) (or part thereof).When towing 5,950 lbs (2,700kg) hill incli-nation is restricted to 14%.
WARNING
•Bumper-attached trailer hitches must not be used on Volvos, nor shouldsafety chains be attached to thebumper.
• Trailer hitches attaching to the vehiclerear axle must not be used.
• Never connect a trailer's hydraulicbrake system directly to the vehiclebrake system, nor a trailer's lightingsystem directly to the vehicle lightingsystem. Consult your nearest author-ized Volvo retailer for correct installa-tion.
• When towing a trailer, the trailer'ssafety chains or wire must be correctlyfastened to the attachment points pro-vided in the trailer hitch on the vehicle.The safety chain or wire must never befastened to or wound around the tow-ing ball.
Trailer cableAn adapter is required if the vehicle's trailer hitch has a 13-pin connector and the trailerhas 7 pins. Use an adapter cable approvedby Volvo. Make sure the cable does not dragon the ground.

Trailer Stability Assist (TSA)
Trailer Stability Assist is a system designed to help stabilize a vehicle that is towing a trailerwhen the vehicle and trailer have begun tosway and is part of the stability system. Forinformation on the stability system, see Stabil-ity system – introduction (p. 162)
FunctionA vehicle towing a trailer may begin to swayfor various reasons. Normally this only occursat high speeds but, for example, if the traileris overloaded or if the load is unevenly dis-tributed in the trailer, there is risk of swayingat speeds between approximately 45-55 mph(70-90 km/h). Swaying may be caused by factors such as: •
The vehicle and trailer are hit by a sud- den, strong crosswind
• The vehicle and trailer are traveling on anuneven road surface or drive over a bump
• Sudden movements of the steering wheel
Facts about TSA
• TSA intervenes at speeds above approxi-mately 40 mph (60 km/h)
• The stability system symbol in the instru-ment panel will flash when TSA is working
• If the driver switches off the stability sys-tem's Spin Control function, TSA will also
