INTRODUCTION

Volvo and the environment Volvo is committed to the well-being of its cus- tomers. As a natural part of this commitment, wecare about the environment in which we all live.Concern for the environment means an everydayinvolvement in reducing our environmentalimpact.
Volvo's environmental activities are based on a holistic view, which means we consider the over-all environmental impact of a product throughoutits complete life cycle. In this context, design, pro-duction, product use, and recycling are all impor-tant considerations. In production, Volvo haspartly or completely phased out several chemicalsincluding CFCs, lead chromates, asbestos, andcadmium; and reduced the number of chemicalsused in our plants 50% since 1991. Volvo was the first in the world to introduce into production a three-way catalytic converter with aLambda sond, now called the heated oxygen sen-sor, in 1976. The current version of this highlyefficient system reduces emissions of harmfulsubstances (CO, HC, NOx) from the exhaust pipeby approximately 95 – 99% and the search toeliminate the remaining emissions continues.Volvo is the only automobile manufacturer tooffer CFC-free retrofit kits for the air conditioningsystem of all models as far back as the 1975model 240. Advanced electronic engine controlsand cleaner fuels are bringing us closer to ourgoal. In addition to continuous environmentalrefinement of conventional gasoline-poweredinternal combustion engines, Volvo is activelylooking at advanced technology alternative-fuelvehicles. When you drive a Volvo, you become our partner in the work to lessen the car's impact on theenvironment. To reduce your vehicle's environ-mental impact, you can:
• Maintain proper air pressure in your tires. Tests have shown decreased fuel economywith improperly inflated tires.
• Follow the recommended maintenanceschedule in your Warranty and ServiceRecords Information booklet.
• Drive at a constant speed whenever possible.
• See a trained and qualified Volvo servicetechnician as soon as possible for inspectionif the check engine (malfunction indicator)light illuminates, or stays on after the vehiclehas started.
• Properly dispose of any vehicle-related wastesuch as used motor oil, used batteries, brakepads, etc.
• When cleaning your vehicle, please use gen-uine Volvo car care products. All Volvo carcare products are formulated to be environ-mentally friendly.
Volvo XC90 T8 Twin Engine Plug-in Hybrid
• If possible, precondition the vehicle with the charging cable before driving.
• If preconditioning is not possible in coldweather, use the seat and steering wheelheating primarily. Avoid heating the entirepassenger compartment, which reduces thehybrid battery's charge level.
• Choose the
Pure drive mode to help mini-
mize electric power consumption.
• In hilly terrain, put the gear selector in mode B
to utilize the electric motor's braking func-
tion when the accelerator pedal is released. This helps charge the hybrid battery.
• Select the
Save drive mode for higher
speeds when driving farther than is possible using the electric motor only.

INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS
* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.123
Climate system voice commands Voice commands can be used to control the cli- mate system to e.g., change the temperature, activate seat heating* or change blower (fan)
speed.
To use the voice control system, press the on the right-side steering wheel keypad and say one of the following commands after the tone:
• "
Climate": starts a command dialog and
provides examples of commands that can be used.
• "
Set temperature to X degrees": sets the
desired temperature.
• "
Raise temperature"/"Lower
temperature": raises/lowers the tempera-
ture.
• "
Sync temperature": synchronizes the tem-
perature in all of the vehicle's climate zones with the one set for the driver's side.
• "
Air on feet"/"Air on body": opens the
desired air vent.
• "
Air on feet off"/"Air on body off": closes
the desired air vent.
• "
Set fan to max"/"Turn off fan": changes
the blower speed to Max/Off.
• "
Raise fan speed"/"Lower fan speed":
raises/lowers the blower speed.
• "
Turn on auto": activates automatic climate
control. •
"
Air condition on"/"Air condition off":
activates/deactivates the air conditioning.
• "
Recirculation on"/"Recirculation off":
activates/deactivates recirculation.
• "
Turn on defroster "/"Turn off defroster":
activates/deactivates window and door mirror defrosting.
• "
Turn on max defroster"/"Turn off max
defroster": activates/deactivates max
defroster.
• "
Turn on electric defroster"/"Turn off
electric defroster": activates/deactivates
the electrically heated windshield *.
• "
Turn on rear defroster"/"Turn off rear
defroster": activates/deactivates the electri-
cally heated rear window and door mirrors.
• "
Turn steering wheel heat on"/"Turn
steering wheel heat off": activates/deacti-
vates the electrically heated steering wheel *.
• "
Raise steering wheel heat"/"Lower
steering wheel heat": raises/lowers the
heating level for the electrically heated steer- ing wheel *.
• "
Turn on seat heat"/"Turn off seat heat":
activates/deactivates the electrically heated seats *.
• "
Raise seat heat"/"Lower seat heat": rai-
ses/lowers the heating level for the electri- cally heated seats *. •
"
Turn on seat ventilation"/"Turn off seat
ventilation": activates/deactivates seat ven-
tilation *.
• "
Raise seat ventilation"/"Lower seat
ventilation": raises/lowers the level for seat
ventilation *.

Left/right turn signals Both turn signal indicators will flash when the hazard warningflashers are being used.
Forward lights
Active Bending Lights (ABL) This symbol will illuminate if there is a fault in the ABL system.
Automatic/active high beams on The symbol will be blue when the automatic high beams are on.
Automatic/active high beams offThe symbol will be white when
the automatic high beams are off.
High beam indicator The symbol will illuminate when the high beams are on or whenhigh beam flash is being used.
SymbolExplanation

Rear fog lights The symbol illuminates when the rear fog lights are on.
Rain sensor The symbol illuminates when the rain sensor is on.
SymbolExplanation
Preconditioning C
The symbol illuminates when the engine/cabin heater/air condition-ing are preconditioning the vehi-cle.
Stability system This symbol flashes when the sta- bility system is actively working tostabilize the vehicle. If the symbolglows steadily, there is a fault inthe system.
Stability system, sport mode This symbol illuminates when Sport mode is on. Sport modeoffers more active driving charac-teristics by monitoring movementof the accelerator pedal, steeringwheel and cornering by allowingmore lateral movement of the rearwheels before the stability systemis activated.

CLIMATE

Climate control systemThe vehicle is equipped with Electronic Climate Control (ECC) that cools, heats, dehumidifiesand filters the air in the passenger compartment.
4-zone climate system
4-zone system climate zones
The 4-zone climate system makes it possible to set the left- and right-side temperatures sepa-rately for the front and rears seats. All climate system settings are made from the center display and the buttons in the center con-sole. Settings for the rear seats can also bemade from the climate system panel on the rearside of the tunnel console.

Perceived temperature
The climate system regulates passenger com- partment temperature based on the perceivedtemperature, not on the actual one.
The selected passenger compartment tempera- ture is based on a physical perception relating tothe current ambient temperature, air flow, humid-ity, sunlight in the passenger compartment, etc. The system's sunlight sensor monitors the side of the car where sunlight is entering the passengercompartment. This means that the actual tem-perature may differ between the right and leftsides of the compartment, even if the tempera-ture setting is the same for both sides.

Parking climate (preconditioning)
The climate in the passenger compartment can be preconditioned and maintained, even whenthe vehicle is parked. For full functionality, the
vehicle's charging cable must be connected .
Parking climate/preconditioning and maintaining pas- senger compartment climate comfort is controlled from the Parking climate tab in the center display's Climate
view.
