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.
