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.

to reduce the chance of oversteer during hard braking.
• Hitting curbs or potholes can damage thetires and/or wheels permanently.
Tire rotationYour vehicle has no required tire rotation. Tire wear is affected by a number of factors such astire inflation, ambient temperature, driving style,etc.
NOTE
• If the tires are rotated, they should only be moved from front to rear or vice versa.They should never be rotated left toright/right to left.
• Ideally, tire rotation should be done thefirst time after approximately 3,000 miles(5,000 km) and thereafter at 6,000-mile(10,000-km) intervals. Some customersfind that tire rotation may help to getextra mileage from tire life.
• Tire rotation should only be performed iffront/rear tire wear is fairly even andtread height is above 1/16" (1.6 mm).
Storing wheels and tiresWhen storing complete wheels (tires mounted on rims), they should be suspended off the floor orplaced on their sides on the floor. Tires not mounted on rims should be stored ontheir sides or standing upright, but should not besuspended.
CAUTION
Tires should preferably be stored in a cool, dry, dark place, and should never be stored inclose proximity to solvents, gasoline, oils, etc.
WARNING
•
The wheel and tire sizes for your Volvo are specified to meet stringent stabilityand handling requirements. Unapprovedwheel/tire size combinations can nega-tively affect your vehicle's stability andhandling.
• Any damage caused by installation ofunapproved wheel/tire size combinationswill not be covered by your new vehiclewarranty. Volvo assumes no responsibilityfor death, injury, or expenses that mayresult from such installations.

Tire sidewall designations
The following information can be found on a tire's sidewall.
Federal law mandates that tire manufacturers place standardized information on the sidewall ofall tires (see the illustration). The vehicle has been certified with certain combi- nations of wheels and tires. The following information is listed on the tire sidewall: The tire designation:
