Driver distraction
Please keep the following warnings in mind when operating/servicing your vehicle.
A driver has a responsibility to do everything pos- sible to ensure his or her own safety and thesafety of passengers in the vehicle and otherssharing the roadway. Avoiding distractions is partof that responsibility. Driver distraction results from driver activities that are not directly related to controlling the vehiclein the driving environment. Your new Volvo is, orcan be, equipped with many feature-rich enter-tainment and communication systems. Theseinclude hands-free cellular telephones, navigationsystems, and multipurpose audio systems. Youmay also own other portable electronic devicesfor your own convenience. When used properlyand safely, they enrich the driving experience.Improperly used, any of these could cause a dis-traction. For all of these systems, we want to provide the following warning that reflects the strong Volvoconcern for your safety. Never use these devicesor any feature of your vehicle in a way that dis-tracts you from the task of driving safely. Distrac-tion can lead to a serious accident. In addition tothis general warning, we offer the following guid-ance regarding specific newer features that maybe found in your vehicle:
WARNING
• Never use a hand-held cellular telephone while driving. Some jurisdictions prohibitcellular telephone use by a driver whilethe vehicle is moving.
• If your vehicle is equipped with a naviga-tion system, set and make changes toyour travel itinerary only with the vehicleparked.
• Never program your audio system whilethe vehicle is moving. Program radio pre-sets with the vehicle parked, and use yourprogrammed presets to make radio usequicker and simpler.
• Never use portable computers or per-sonal digital assistants while the vehicleis moving.
Accessory installation
•We strongly recommend that Volvo ownersinstall only genuine, Volvo-approved acces-sories, and that accessory installations beperformed only by a trained and qualifiedVolvo service technician.

Seat belt reminder
Seat belt reminder light in ceiling console
The seat belt reminder consists of an audible signal, an indicator light nearthe rearview mirror and a symbol in theinstrument panel that alert all occu-
pants of the vehicle to buckle their seat belts.
The audible signal is speed-dependent and will sound for several seconds. If the driver's or a passenger's seat belt is not buckled, this will be indicated in the instrumentpanel. Child seats are not included in the seat belt reminder system.
Front seats
An audible signal and an indicator light will remind the driver and front seat passenger tobuckle their seat belts.
Rear seats
The rear seat belt reminder has two functions.
• It indicates which seat belts are buckled in the rear seats. This will also be displayed inan instrument panel graphic.
• It also provides audio and visual reminders ifa rear seat belt is unbuckled while the vehi-cle is in motion. The reminders will disappearwhen the seat belt has been buckled again or can be erased by pressing the
O button
on the steering wheel keypad.
Door/hood/tailgate/fuel filler door
reminder
If a door, the hood, tailgate or fuel filler door is/are not properly closed, this will be indicated ina graphic in the instrument panel. Stop the vehi-cle safely and close the source of the reminder.
If the vehicle is moving at a speedunder approx.6 mph (10 km/h), theinformation symbol will illuminate in theinstrument panel.
At speeds above approx. 6 mph (10 km/h), the warning symbol will illu-minate in the instrument panel.

Child safety
Children should always be seated safely when traveling in the vehicle.
General informationVolvo recommends the proper use of restraint systems for all occupants including children.Remember that, regardless of age and size, achild should always be properly restrained in avehicle. Your vehicle is also equipped with ISOFIX/ LATCH attachments, which make it more conven-ient to install child seats. Some restraint systems for children are designed to be secured in the vehicle by lap belts or thelap portion of a lap-shoulder belt. Such childrestraint systems can help protect children invehicles in the event of an accident only if theyare used properly. However, children could beendangered in a crash if the child restraints arenot properly secured in the vehicle. Failure to fol-low the installation instructions for your childrestraint can result in your child striking the vehi-cle's interior in a sudden stop. Holding a child in your arms is NOT a suitable substitute for a child restraint system. In an acci-dent, a child held in a person's arms can becrushed between the vehicle's interior and anunrestrained person. The child could also beinjured by striking the interior, or by being ejectedfrom the vehicle during a sudden maneuver or

INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS

Trip computer The trip computer registers and calculates infor- mation such as distance driven, fuel consump-tion and average speed. This information is dis-played in the instrument panel.
To help promote fuel efficient driving, the trip computer provides readings for current and aver-age fuel consumption. The trip computer includes the following gauges:
• Trip odometers
• Odometer
• Current fuel consumption
• Distance to empty
• Tourist (alternative speedometer)
Trip odometerThere are two trip odometers: TM and TA. During a drive, the trip odometer registers:
• Mileage
• Driving time
• Average speed
• Average fuel consumption
The values displayed are those since the lasttime the trip odometer was reset.
OdometerThe odometer registers the vehicle's total mile-age and cannot be reset.
Current fuel consumptionThis gauge shows the current fuel consumption.This reading is updated once a second.
Distance to emptyThis function shows the approximate distancethat can be driven on the fuel remaining in thetank. The calculation is based on average fuel con- sumption during the last 20 miles (30 km) ofdriving and the amount of fuel remaining in thetank. When the gauge displays "----", there is very little useable fuel remaining in the tank; refuel as soonas possible. The accuracy of this figure may vary if your driv-ing style changes. An economical driving style willgenerally increase this distance.
Distance to discharged batteryThis gauge shows the approximate distance thatcan be driven on the charge remaining in thehybrid battery. When the gauge displays "----"there is no guaranteed driving charge remainingin the battery. This calculation is based on the average electrical current consumption in a normally loaded vehicleduring normal driving, and whether the A/C is onor off. An economical driving style will generally increase this distance.
Distance using the electric motor
To get the optimal driving distance using the electric motor, it is essential to conserve current.Functions that use a great deal of current (e.g.,audio system, electrical heating in the steeringwheel/door mirrors/rear window/seats, very coldair from the climate system, etc.) reduce the pos-sible driving distance.
NOTE
In addition to high electrical consumption in the passenger compartment, fast accelera-tion, sudden braking, heavy loads, low ambienttemperatures and driving up hills can reducethe possible driving distance.

• Ignition modes (p. 370)
Calibrating the compass
North America is divided into 15 magnetic zones and the compass will need to be calibrated if thevehicle is driven from one zone to another.
To calibrate the compass:
1. Stop the vehicle in a large open area, safely out of traffic and away from steel structures and high-tension electrical wires.
2. Start the vehicle.
NOTE
• For best calibration results, switch off all electrical equipment in the vehicle (climatesystem, windshield wipers, audio system,etc.) and make sure that all doors areclosed.
• Calibration may not succeed or be incor-rect if the vehicle's electrical equipment isnot switched off.
3. Using a pen, paperclip or similar object, press
and hold the button on the underside of mir- ror for approx. 3 seconds until the number ofthe current magnetic zone is displayed.

WARNING
Warnings will only be provided if there is an imminent risk of a collision taking place. Thedriver should be aware of the system's limita-tions before operating the vehicle. Warnings and automatic braking for pedes- trians and cyclists are deactivated at speedsabove 50 mph (80 km/h). City Safety's auto-brake function can help prevent a collision or reduce the speed atwhich a collision occurs. However, the drivershould always apply the brakes, even if auto-brake is operating. The driver is always responsible for maintain- ing the correct speed and distance in relationto the vehicle ahead. Never wait for a collisionwarning or for City Safety to intervene. City Safety does not activate the auto-brake function during fast acceleration. City Safety maintenance may only be carried out by a trained and qualified Volvo servicetechnician.
Function overview
Audio-visual collision warning
Distance monitoring by a camera and radar sensor
When triggered, City Safety carries out threesteps in the following order: 1. Collision warning
2. Brake assistance
3. Auto-brake
1: Collision warningThe driver is first alerted to the risk of an immi- nent collision. City Safety can detect pedestrians, cyclists or vehicles that are stationary, are moving in thesame direction as your vehicle or are described inthe article "City Safety in crossing traffic." Thedriver is alerted by a flashing red warning signal, an audible signal and pulsations in the brakepedal.
2: Brake assistanceIf the risk of a collision increases, brake supportwill be activated. This function increases pressure on the brake pedal if the driver does not apply enough pres-sure to the pedal.
3: Auto-brakeThe brakes will be applied automatically. If the driver has not taken action at this stage and a collision is imminent, auto-braking will be trig-gered. Full braking effect will be used to avoidthe collision if possible or to make the speed atthe point of impact as low as possible. In certain situations, auto-braking may begin with limited effect before full braking is used. If City Safety has prevented a collision, the vehi- cle will be kept at a standstill until the drivertakes action. If the vehicle has slowed to avoidcolliding with the vehicle ahead, your speed willbe reduced to that vehicle's speed. When auto-break is triggered, the seat belt pre- tensioners may also be activated, see the article"Seat belts" for additional information. Auto-braking can be cancelled if the driver presses hard on the accelerator pedal.
