NOTE
One of the remote keys must be in your pos- session or within range when you are behindthe vehicle in order to activate the foot move-ment sensor, even if the tailgate is alreadyunlocked. This is done to help prevent thesensor from inadvertently opening the tail-gate, for example, in a car wash. Be sure that the key is not within range when the vehicle is in an automatic carwash.

Operation
Kicking motion under the sensor's activation area
Opening/closing
–With the remote key within range, move your foot slowly forward in a kicking motion belowthe left section of the rear bumper withouttouching the bumper and take a step back.
> A brief audible signal will sound when the
tailgate begins to open/close.
The tailgate can be closed (or closed and locked) by pressing the
or buttons on the lower
edge of the tailgate 10
.
It can also be operated manually or by pressing the button on the lighting panel in the passengercompartment or on the remote key. If several attempts have been made to open/close the tailgate using the foot sensor without aremote key within range, the function will timeout and will not be available for a short period.
NOTE
Foot operation may not be possible or func- tion normally if the sensor is obstructed bysnow, ice, dirt, etc.
Interrupting opening/closing
–Move your foot slowly forward in a kicking motion while the tailgate is opening/closingto stop its movement.
No remote keys need to be within range in orderto interrupt movement of the tailgate.
Vehicles equipped with a skid plate/ diffuser *
If the vehicle is equipped with a skid plate/ diffuser*, the sensor is located under the left cor-
ner of the rear bumper.

Before a long distance trip
It is always worthwhile to have your vehicle checked by a trained and qualified Volvo servicetechnician before driving long distances. Yourretailer will also be able to supply you with bulbs,fuses, spark plugs and wiper blades for your usein the event that problems occur.
As a minimum, the following items should be checked before any long trip:
• Check that engine runs smoothly and that fuel consumption and the oil level are normal.
• Before leaving on a trip, fill the fuel tank andmake sure the hybrid battery is fully charged.During the trip, make a habit of refueling reg-ularly.
• Check for fuel, oil, and fluid leakage.
• Check condition of drive belts.
• Check state of the battery's charge.
• Examine tires carefully and replace thosethat are worn. Also, check tire inflation pres-sure.
• The brakes, front wheel alignment, and steer-ing gear should be checked by a trained andqualified Volvo service technician only.
• Check all lights, including high beams.
• Reflective warning triangles are legallyrequired in some states/provinces.
• Have a word with a trained and qualifiedVolvo service technician if you intend to drive in countries where it may be difficult toobtain the correct fuel.
• Consider your destination. If you will be driv-ing through an area where snow or ice arelikely to occur, consider using snow tires.
Driving economically
Better driving economy can be obtained by thinking ahead, avoiding rapid starts and stopsand adjusting the speed of your vehicle to imme-diate traffic conditions.
Driving economically with the XC90 T8Twin Engine Plug-in Hybrid
Plan your driving in order to utilize the electric motor as much as possible. An energy-conserving driving style lowers current consumption from the hybrid battery and helpsincrease electric driving range.
Charging
• Charge the hybrid battery regularly using the charging cable. Whenever possible, begin adrive with a fully charged battery.
• Check the location of charging points.
• Where possible, choose parking spaces withcharging points.

or location or removing components, and/or repeated use of leaded fuel.
NOTE
Unleaded fuel is required for vehicles with three-way catalytic converters.
Heated oxygen sensorsThe heated oxygen sensors monitor the oxygen content of the exhaust gases. Readings are fedinto a control module that continuously monitorsengine functions and controls fuel injection. Theratio of fuel to air into the engine is continuouslyadjusted for efficient combustion to help reduceharmful emissions.

Jump starting
Follow the instructions provided here to jump start your vehicle or to jump start another vehi-cle.
Jumper cable connecting terminals
NOTE
The vehicle cannot be started if the hybrid battery is discharged.
CAUTION
The vehicle's jumper cable connecting termi- nals may only be used to start your vehicle.
They are not intended to be used to help start another vehicle. If they are used to startanother vehicle, a fuse may blow and the ter-minal will not function.
If a fuse blows, Battery failure Battery fuse
Service required will be displayed in the instru-
ment panel. Contact a trained and qualified Volvo service technician. Use the following steps when jump starting your vehicle to help prevent short circuits or otherdamage.

Hybrid-related symbols and messages
A number of symbols and messages relating to the XC90 T8 Twin Engine Plug-in Hybrid may appear in the instrument panel. They may alsobe displayed in combination with general indica-tor and warning symbols and will go out whenthe necessary action has been taken.
SymbolMessageExplanation

NOTE
•At very low or high temperatures, some of the charging current is used to heat orcool the hybrid battery and the passengercompartment, which means that chargingmay take longer.
• Charging time is longer if preconditioninghas been selected. This time is primarilyaffected by the ambient temperature.
Charging coupler and charging socket
There are normally several 120-/240-volt power consumers in a fuse circuit, which means thatmore than one power consumer (lighting, vacuumcleaner, electric drill, etc.) may use the same fuse.
Long-term storage of a vehicle with a hybrid battery
To help keep the hybrid battery from degrading if the vehicle is not driven for a prolonged period
(longer than 1 month), the hybrid battery charge level should be kept at approx. 25% accordingto the gauge in the instrument panel.
Do as follows:
1. If the hybrid battery charge level is high, drive the vehicle until approx. 25% of the charge remains. If the charge level is low, charge thebattery until the level is approx. 25%. 2. If the vehicle has not been driven for at least
6 months or the charge level is noticeablybelow the 25% level, charge the battery upto 25% again to help compensate for naturalbattery discharge. Check the charge levelregularly using the gauge in the instrumentpanel.
See the article "Jump starting" for informationabout charging the start battery.
NOTE
• If the vehicle will not be driven for an extended period, park it in as cool a loca-tion as possible to help minimize hybridbattery aging. Park the vehicle indoors orin a shady location in the summer, which-ever is coolest.
