Digital compass*
The rear-view mirror has an integrated display that shows the compass direction in whichthe vehicle is traveling.
Operation
Rearview mirror with compass.
Eight different directions are shown with the abbreviations:
N (north), NE (north east), E(east), SE (southeast), S (south), SW (south-
west), W (west) and NW (northwest).
The compass is displayed automatically when the vehicle is started or in ignition mode II. To
switch the compass on/off use a pen, paper-clip or similar object and press in the buttonon the underside of the mirror.
CalibrationNorth America is divided into 15 magneticzones and the compass will need to be cali-brated if the vehicle is driven into a new one(see the magnetic zones on the map in thefollowing section "Selecting a magneticzone"). To do so:
1. Stop the vehicle in a large open area, safely out of traffic and away from steel structures and high-tension electricalwires.
2. Start the vehicle.
NOTE
• For best calibration results, switch off all electrical equipment in the vehicle(climate system, windshield wipers,audio system, etc.) and make sure thatall doors are closed.
• Calibration may not succeed or beincorrect if the vehicle's electricalequipment is not switched off.
3. Using a pen, paperclip or similar object,
press and hold the button on the under- side of mirror for approx. 6 seconds until
C is displayed in the mirror. 4. Press and hold the button for 3 seconds
until the number of the current magnetic zone is displayed.
5. Press the button repeatedly until the number of the desired magnetic zone (
1-15) is displayed. See the magnetic
zones on the map in the following section "Selecting a magnetic zone").
6. Wait until
C is again displayed in the mir-
ror.
7. Drive slowly in a circle at a speed of no more than 6 mph (10 km/h) until a direc- tion is displayed. This indicates that cali-bration is complete.
8. Drive around in a circle an additional two times to fine-tune the calibration.
9. Vehicles with an electrically heated windshield:
* if
C is displayed when the
heating function is activated, perform step 7 with the heating function on. Seealso Max. defroster and electricallyheated windshield* (p. 132) for additionalinformation about the heated windshield.
Repeat the calibration procedure if neces-sary.
20 The auto-dim function is also available as an option on the door mirrors.

Panoramic roof* – introduction
The laminated panoramic roof is divided into two sections. The rear glass section is fixed inplace and cannot be moved but the frontglass section can be slid horizontally to theopen or closed positions or its rear edge canbe raised and lowered to allow ventilation.
IntroductionAll references in this section to opening orclosing the panoramic roof pertain to the frontglass section. The laminated panoramic roof also has a sun shade made of perforated fabric that islocated below the sections of glass. Thisshade can be opened or closed, for examplewhen driving in bright sunlight.
Both the laminated panoramic roof and the sun shade are operated by the controls in theceiling console, near the rear-view mirror. The vehicle's ignition must be in mode
I or II
before the laminated panoramic roof/sunshade can be operated.
CAUTION
• Remove ice and snow before opening the laminated panoramic roof.
• Do not operate the laminated panor-amic roof if it is frozen closed.
• Never place heavy objects on the lami-nated panoramic roof.
Wind blocker
The laminated panoramic roof is equipped with a wind blocker that folds up when theroof is open.

* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.125
Climate – general information
The vehicle is equipped with Electronic Cli- mate Control (ECC) (p. 129) 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 laminated panoramic roof
To ensure that the air conditioning works optimally, the side windows, and the lamina-ted panoramic roof should be closed.
Fog on the inside of the windowsThe defroster function (p. 132) 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. 132) 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.
