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.

Park Assist Pilot (PAP)* – introduction
The Park Assist Pilot provides assistance when parallel parking by measuring the park-ing space and turning the steering wheel.
Introduction
The off/on button shown is located on the center console
Park Assist Pilot (PAP) is a semi-automatic system that provides assistance when parallelparking by:
• Finding a parking space and determining if it is big enough for the vehicle
• Helping to steer the vehicle into the park-ing space
Information about the actions required of the driver is provided in the instrument panel inthe form of symbols, images and text.
NOTE
If a trailer hitch is configured in the vehi- cle's electrical system, PAP will take thetrailer hitch into consideration when deter-mining the necessary size of a parkingspace.
WARNING
• PAP does not function in all situations and is only intended to assist thedriver when parallel parking.
• As the driver, you have full responsibil-ity for parking the vehicle in a safemanner.

Park Assist Pilot (PAP)* – function
PAP's function is to measure the parking space and to turn the steering wheel duringthe parallel parking procedure. The driver isresponsible for following the instructionsshown in the instrument panel and for: shift-ing between
R (Reverse) and D (Drive) when
required, regulating the vehicle's speed,applying the brakes and stopping the vehicle. PAP can be activated in the following condi- tions: • When the stability or ABS systems are not working actively
• The vehicle is not towing a trailer
• The vehicle's speed is below30 mph (50 km/h)
How PAP works
PAP helps park the vehicle by:

Park Assist Pilot (PAP)* – limitations
The PAP parking procedure will be cancelled if.
• The vehicle's speed goes above approxi- mately 4 mph 7 km/h
• The driver moves the steering wheel
• If the stability or ABS systems are acti-vated (e.g., if a wheel starts to spinbecause of a slippery road surface
If the system has been switched off, this will be indicated by a text message in the instru-ment panel.
NOTE
• PAP will not function correctly if its sensors are obstructed by dirt, snow,etc.
• In certain situations, PAP may not beable to measure a parking space. Thiscould be due to external sources ofsound (e.g., a vehicle's horn, tires onwet asphalt, pneumatic brakes, noisefrom a motorcycle's exhaust, etc.)emitting ultrasound using approxi-mately the same frequencies as PAP.
Information to keep in mindPAP is only intended to provide parallel park- ing assistance but may not be able to func-tion fully in all situations. •
PAP's function is based on the way that the vehicles are parked behind and infront of your parking space. If they are,for example, parked too close to the curb,there is a risk that your vehicle's tires orwheel rims could be damaged by thecurb during the parking procedure.
• PAP is intended to provide parking assis-tance on straight streets, not sections ofstreet with curved or irregular curbs. Besure that your vehicle is parallel to thecurb when PAP measures the parkingspace.
• PAP may not be able to provide parkingassistance on narrow streets due to lackof space to maneuver the vehicle. In sit-uations like this, it may help to drive asclose to the side of the road as possiblewhere the parking space is located.
• Use only approved tires with the correctinflation pressure because this affectsPAP's capacity to provide parking assis-tance. See the table in Tire inflation –pressure table (p. 305). Changing to adifferent approved tire size may affectPAP's parameters. Consult a trained andqualified Volvo service technician.
• Heavy rain or snow may inhibit PAP'scapacity to correctly measure a parkingspace.
• Do not use PAP if snow chains or a tem-porary spare tire is being used.
• Do not use PAP if there are any objectsprotruding from the vehicle.
WARNING
• The front end of your vehicle may turn out toward oncoming traffic during theparking procedure.
• Objects located above the parkingsensors' field of vision are not includedwhen PAP measures a parking space.For this reason, PAP may turn into theparking space too soon. Avoid parkingspaces of this type.
• The driver is always responsible fordetermining if PAP has selected a suit-able parking space.
Maintenance

Tires – general information
Your vehicle is equipped with tires according to the vehicle's tire information placard on theB-pillar (the structural member at the side ofthe vehicle, at the rear of the driver's dooropening).
Introduction
CAUTION
Some Volvo models are equipped with an Ultra High Performance tire and wheelcombination designed to provide maxi-mum dry pavement performance with con-sideration for hydroplaning resistance.They may be more susceptible to roadhazard damage and, depending on drivingconditions, may achieve a tread life of lessthan 20,000 miles (30,000 km). Even if thisvehicle is equipped with Volvo’s advancedAWD or stability system, these tires are notdesigned for winter driving, and should bereplaced with winter tires when weatherconditions dictate.
The tires have good road holding characteris- tics and offer good handling on dry and wetsurfaces. It should be noted however that thetires have been developed to give these fea-tures on snow/ice-free surfaces. Most models are equipped with "all-season" tires, which provide a somewhat higherdegree of road holding on slippery surfacesthan tires without the "all-season" rating.However, for optimum road holding on icy orsnow-covered roads, we recommend suitablewinter tires on all four wheels. When replacing tires, be sure that the new tires are the same size designation, type(radial) and preferably from the same manu-facturer, on all four wheels. Otherwise there isa risk of altering the car's roadholding andhandling characteristics.
Tire rotationYour vehicle has no required tire rotation. Tirewear is affected by a number of factors suchas tire inflation, ambient temperature, drivingstyle, etc.
NOTE
•
If the tires are rotated, they should only be moved from front to rear orvice versa. They should never be rota-ted left to right/right to left.
• Ideally, tire rotation should be done thefirst time after approximately 3,000miles (5,000 km) and thereafter at6,000-mile (10,000-km) intervals.Some customers find that tire rotationmay help to get extra mileage from tirelife.
• Tire rotation should only be performedif front/rear tire wear is fairly even andtread height is above 1/16" (1.6 mm).

Tires – storage and age
When storing complete wheels (tires mounted on rims), they should be suspended off thefloor or placed on their sides on the floor.
New Tires
Remember that tires are perishable goods. Asof 2000, the manufacturing week and year(Department of Transportation (DOT) stamp)will be indicated with 4 digits (e.g., 1513means that the tire illustrated was manufac-tured during week 15 of 2013).
Tire ageTires degrade over time, even when they are not being used. It is recommended that tiresgenerally be replaced after 6 years of normalservice. Heat caused by hot climates, fre-quent high loading conditions or Ultra Violet(U.V.) exposure can accelerate the agingprocess. The temporary spare
1
should also
be replaced at 6-year intervals, even if it hasnever been used. A tire's age can be determined by the DOT stamp on the sidewall (see the illustration). A tire with e.g., visible cracks or discoloration should be replaced immediately.
Storing wheels and tiresWhen storing completes wheels (tires moun-ted on rims), they should be suspended offthe floor or placed on their sides on the floor. Tires not mounted on rims should be stored on their sides or standing upright, but shouldnot be suspended.
CAUTION
Tires should preferably be stored in a cool, dry, dark place, and should never bestored in close proximity to solvents, gaso-line, oils, etc.
WARNING
• The wheel and tire sizes for your Volvo are specified to meet stringent stabilityand handling requirements. Unap-proved wheel/tire size combinationscan negatively affect your vehicle'sstability and handling.
• Any damage caused by installation ofunapproved wheel/tire size combina-tions will not be covered by your newvehicle warranty. Volvo assumes noresponsibility for death, injury, orexpenses that may result from suchinstallations.

Tires – tread wear indicator
The tires have wear indicator strips running across or parallel to the tread.
G021829
The letters TWI are printed on the side of the
tire. When approximately 1/16" (1.6 mm) is left on the tread, these strips become visibleand indicate that the tire should be replaced.Tires with less than 1/16" (1.6 mm) tread offervery poor traction. When replacing worn tires, it is recommended that the tire be identical in type (radial) andsize as the one being replaced. Using a tire ofthe same make (manufacturer) will preventalteration of the driving characteristics of thevehicle.

Tires – tire economy
A smooth driving style and correct inflation pressure can help prolong the tires' servicelife. • Maintain correct tire pressure. The tire inflation table, see Tire inflation – pressuretable (p. 305).
• Avoid fast starts, hard braking and tirescreeching.
• Tire wear increases with speed.
• Correct front wheel alignment is veryimportant.
• Unbalanced wheels impair tire economyand driving comfort.
• Tires must maintain the same direction ofrotation throughout their lifetime.
• When replacing tires, the tires with themost tread should be mounted on therear wheels to reduce the chance of over-steer during hard braking.
• Hitting curbs or potholes can damage thetires and/or wheels permanently.
