WARNING
Please be aware that there is no sound from the engine when the vehicle is being poweredby the electric motor and it may be difficult todetect by children, pedestrians, cyclists andanimals. This is especially true at low speeds.
High-voltage electrical current
WARNING
A number of electrical components in the XC90 T8 Twin Engine Plug-in Hybrid usehigh-voltage current and can be extremelydangerous if handled incorrectly. These com-ponents and any orange wiring in the vehiclemay only be handled by trained and qualifiedVolvo service technicians.
Hybrid-unique functions
Drive modes
Different drive modes can be selected while driv- ing, e.g., electric power only or a combination ofelectric and gasoline power. The vehicle calcu-lates the optimal combination of drivability, drivingexperience, environmental impact and fuel econ-omy for the selected drive mode. See also thearticle "Drive modes" for additional information.
Instrument panel
In certain driving situations, hybrid-unique infor- mation may be displayed in the instrument panel,such as: a hybrid battery gauge (current chargelevel), the current drive mode, a symbol that illu-minates when the gasoline engine is being used,a Hybrid Guide and the level of energy regenera-tion.
Preconditioning
In order to function optimally, the hybrid battery (and its related electrical systems) and the gaso-line engine (and its drive systems) should be atthe correct operating temperature. The hybridbattery's capacity is reduced considerably if it istoo cold or hot. Preconditioning prepares thevehicle's drive systems and passenger compart-ment before the vehicle is driven to help reducewear and energy consumption.
Charging the hybrid battery
CAUTION
Never connect the charging cable if there is a risk of thunderstorms/lightning.
The XC90 T8 Twin Engine Plug-in Hybrid uses a lithium-ion battery that can be charged in severalways:
• A charging cable can be connected from the vehicle to a 110-volt AC socket. Chargingtime depends on the strength of the current.
• When the brakes are applied lightly, the elec-tric motor is used for engine braking, duringwhich the vehicle's kinetic energy is conver-ted into electric current that is used to helprecharge the hybrid battery.
• The hybrid battery is also recharged to a cer-tain extent when the gasoline engine is inoperation.

Using the owner's manualReading your owner's manual is a good way of familiarizing yourself with the features and sys-tems in your vehicle.
On-board owner's manualReading the owner's manual is a good way to become familiar with your vehicle and to learn toutilize the features and functions that it offers.Pay particular attention to the warnings provided.

Printed owner's informationWe advise keeping printed owner's information in the vehicle for quick access to necessary infor-mation and how to contact Volvo if help isrequired.
IllustrationsSome of the illustrations used in your owner'sinformation may be generic and will give a gen-eral view of a certain feature or function. Forexample, some illustrations describing climatesystem functions may display a temperature indegrees Celsius but the same information appliesto Fahrenheit.
Options and accessoriesOptional or accessory equipment described inthis manual is indicated by an asterisk. Optional or accessory equipment may not be available in all countries or markets. Please notethat some vehicles may be equipped differently,depending on special legal requirements. Contact your Volvo retailer for additional informa- tion.
FootnotesCertain pages of this manual contain informationin the form of footnotes at the bottom of thepage. This information supplements the text thatthe footnote number refers to (a letter is used ifthe footnote refers to text in a table).
MessagesThere are several displays in the vehicle thatshow messages generated by various systemsand functions in the vehicle. The appearance ofthese texts differs slightly from normal texts (for example:
Phone, Accept).
DecalsThere are various types of decals in the vehicle whose purpose is to provide important informa-tion in a clear and concise way. The importanceof these decals is explained as follows, indescending order of importance.
Risk of injury
Black ISO symbols on a yellow warning back- ground, white text/image on a black background.Decals of this type are used to indicate potentialdanger. Ignoring a warning of this type couldresult in serious injury or death.

INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS
96
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.
