Location of the ambient temperature sensor in 12" (upper) and 8" (lower) instrument panels (temperatureshown here in degrees Celsius)
NOTE
When the ambient temperature is between 23° and 36 °F (–5° and +2 °C), a snowflakesymbol will be displayed next to the tempera-ture. This symbol serves as a warning for pos-sible slippery road surfaces. Please note that this symbol does not indicate a fault with your
vehicle. At low speeds or when the vehicle is not mov- ing, the temperature readings may be slightlyhigher than the actual ambient temperature.

Voice control
Voice commands make it possible for the driver to voice-control certain functions in the mediaplayer, a Bluetooth-connected cell phone, cli- mate system and the Volvo navigation system *.
Voice control offers convenience and enables the driver to keep his/her hands on the steeringwheel and concentrate on driving and the trafficsituation around the vehicle.
WARNING
As the driver, you have full responsibility for operating the vehicle safely and adhering toall applicable traffic regulations.
Input to the system is in dialog form and compri- ses commands from the driver and a verbalresponse from the system. The voice control system uses the same micro- phone as the Bluetooth hands-free system and system responses come via the infotainment sys-tem's speakers. In certain cases, text messages are also provided in the instrument panel. The functions are controlled using the right-side steering wheel keypad and settings are madefrom the center console.
System updates
The voice control system is being constantly improved and updates should be downloaded foroptimal functionality. See the support sitesupport.volvocars.com.

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.

Air quality
The materials used in the passenger compart- ment have been selected and designed to bepleasant and comfortable, even for people withasthma or other types of allergies.
Materials in the passenger compartment
The materials used have been developed to help minimize the amount of dust and make the cabineasier to keep clean. All floor mats can be easily removed for cleaning. Use car cleaning products recommended byVolvo. Only use cleaning agents and car care products recommended by Volvo. Clean regularly and fol-low the instructions included with the car careproduct.
Air filtering systemsIn addition to the passenger compartment filter, the Clean Zone Interior Package * and the Interior
Air Quality System * contribute to a cleaner pas-
senger compartment environment.

Clean Zone Interior Package (CZIP)
*
The Clean Zone Interior Package includes a number of features that help further reduce aller-genic substances in the passenger compart-ment.
CZIP includes the following:
• An enhanced blower function that starts the blower when the vehicle is unlocked with theremote key to fill the passenger compart-ment with fresh air. This function starts auto-matically when required and shuts off auto-matically after a short period or if one thedoors is opened. The time for which theblower operates decreases gradually due toreduced need until the vehicle is four yearsold.
• The Interior Air Quality System (IAQS).
NOTE
In order to retain the CZIP standard, the IAQS filter must be replaced at the specified inter-vals. Consult your Volvo retailer.
Interior Air Quality System (IAQS)
*
The Interior Air Quality System uses a multifilter and an air quality sensor to remove gases, parti-cles and other contaminants from the air enter-ing the passenger compartment.
The IAQS air quality sensor monitors increased levels of contaminants in the outside air and ifcontaminants are detected, the air intake closesand the air inside the passenger compartment isrecirculated, i.e., no outside air enters the vehicle.The filter also cleans recirculated passengercompartment air.
NOTE
• The air quality sensor should always be engaged in order to obtain the best air inthe passenger compartment.
• Recirculation is limited in cold weather toavoid fogging.
• If the insides of the windows start fog-ging, disengage the air quality sensor.Use the defroster function to increaseairflow to the front, side, and rear win-dows.
Activating/deactivating IAQSTo change the setting for IAQS activation/deacti- vation:
1. In the center display's Settings view, go to
