NOTE
•Deployment of front airbags occurs only one time during an accident. In a collisionwhere deployment occurs, the airbagsand seat belt pretensioners activate.Some noise occurs and a small amountof powder is released. The release of thepowder may appear as smoke-like matter.This is a normal characteristic and doesnot indicate fire.
• Volvo's front airbags use special sensorsthat are integrated with the front seatbuckles. The point at which the airbagdeploys is determined by whether or notthe seat belt is being used, as well as theseverity of the collision.
• Collisions can occur where only one ofthe airbags deploys. If the impact is lesssevere, but severe enough to present aclear injury risk, the airbags are triggeredat partial capacity. If the impact is moresevere, the airbags are triggered at fullcapacity.

WARNING
• Children must never be allowed in the front passenger's seat.
• Occupants in the front passenger's seatmust never sit on the edge of the seat, sitleaning toward the instrument panel orotherwise sit out of position.

Climate – sensors
The climate system utilizes a number of sensors to help regulate the temperature and humiditylevel in the passenger compartment.
Sensor location
• The sunlight sensor is located on the top side of the dashboard.
NOTE
The sunlight sensor monitors which side of the car that is most exposed to sunlight. Thiscan mean that the temperature may differbetween the right and left-side air vents, evenif the temperatures set for both sides of thepassenger compartment are the same.
•
The temperature sensor for the passenger compartment is located below the climatecontrol panel.
• The outside (ambient) temperature sensor islocated on the door mirror.
• The humidity sensor
* is located in the interior
rearview mirror.
NOTE
Do not cover or block the sensors with cloth- ing or other objects.

Air quality
The passenger compartment has been designed to be pleasant and comfortable, even for peoplewith asthma and contact allergies.
Passenger compartment filterReplace the cabin air filter with a new one at the recommended intervals. Please refer to your War-ranty and Service Records Information booklet, orconsult a trained and qualified Volvo service tech-nician for these intervals. The filter should bereplaced more often when driving under dirty anddusty conditions. The filter cannot be cleanedand therefore should always be replaced with anew one.
NOTE
There are different types of cabin air filters. Ensure that the correct type is installed.
Interior Air Quality System (IAQS)A multifilter helps reduce gases and particles in the incoming air, thereby reducing the levels ofodors and contaminants entering the vehicle. Theair quality sensor detects increased levels of con-taminants in the outside air. When the air qualitysensor detects contaminated outside air, the airintake closes and the air inside the passengercompartment is recirculated, i.e., no outside airenters the vehicle. The filter also cleans recircula-ted passenger compartment air.

Climate – menu settings
The default settings for four of the climate sys-
tem's (p. 120) functions can be changed in themenu system.
• Blower speed (p. 127) in automatic mode (p. 127).
• Recirculation timer (p. 130) for passengercompartment air.
• Automatic rear window defrosting (p. 99).
• The optional Interior Air Quality Sys-tem (p. 122) (IAQS).
The functions can also be returned to factory set-tings in the menu system. See My Car – introduction (p. 71) for a descrip- tion of the menu system.

Air distribution – general
The incoming air is distributed through a number of different vents in the passenger compartment.
Air distribution is fully automatic in AUTO
mode (p. 127). If desired, air distribution can be controlled man- ually, see Air distribution – function (p. 129).

Electronic climate control (ECC)
ECC (Electronic Climate Control) helps maintain the selected temperature in the passenger com- partment and the temperature can be set sepa-rately on the driver's and passenger's sides.
The AUTO function (p. 127) automatically regu-lates the temperature, air conditioning, blowerspeed, recirculation and air distribution.

NOTE
•Triangular areas at the far sides of the windshield are not heated electrically andwill take slightly longer to defrost/de-ice.
• The heated windshield may affect theperformance/range of e.g., transpondersused to automatically pay highway tolls orother communication equipment.
The following occurs when the defroster/wind- shield heating functions have been activated:
• Blower speed increases automatically andthe air conditioning (p. 128) will switch on (ifnot already on and if the passenger compart-ment blower is not turned off) to dehumidifythe air in the passenger compartment. Airconditioning can be switched off by pressing the
AC button.
• Recirculation (p. 130) will not function while defrost is engaged.
The climate system will return to its previous set-tings when the defroster/windshield heatingfunction is switched off. See also Heated windshield *, rear window and
door mirror defrosters (p. 99) for additional infor- mation.
