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 – general information
The vehicle is equipped with Electronic Cli- mate Control (ECC) (p. 126) 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. 129) 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.
Temporary shut-off of the air conditioning
The air conditioning (p. 129) 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.

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.

Electronic climate control (ECC)
ECC (Electronic Climate Control) helps main- tain the selected temperature in the passen-ger compartment and the temperature can be set separately on the driver's and passenger'ssides.
The AUTO function (p. 128) automaticallyregulates the temperature, air conditioning,blower speed, recirculation and air distribu-tion.

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. 129) 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. 131) 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. 102) for addi-tional information.
