378 a short distance
(in heavy traffic, etc.) or
when driving down hills .
To help keep fuel consumption as low as possi- ble, Eco Coast should not be used in traffic situa-tions where the brakes have to be used fre-quently.
Activating Eco Coast
Eco Coast is activated when the accelerator pedal is released completely if:
• Eco is activated
• The gear selector is in
D
• The vehicle's speed is between approxi-mately 40 and 87 mph(65 and 140 km/h)Always observe posted speed limits
• The gradient of a down-slope is less thanapproximately 6%
COASTING will appear in the instrument panel
when Eco Coast is being used.
Limitations
Eco Coast is not available if:
• The engine and/or transmission have not reached their normal operating temperature
• Cruise control is activated
• The gear selector is moved from
D to " +/-"
for manual shifting
• The vehicle's speed is not within the40 and 87 mph(65 and 140 km/h) range •
The gradient of a down-slope is more thanapproximately 6%
• The steering wheel paddles
* are used for
manual shifting
Deactivating and turning off Eco Coast
In certain situations, it may be advisable to switch off the Eco Coast function, such as:
• When driving down steep hills, in order to uti-lize engine braking
• Prior to passing another vehicle, in order todo so as safely as possible
Deactivating Eco Coast (and reactivating enginebraking) can be done in the following ways: • Move the gear selector to the manual "
+/–"
position
• Change gears using the steering wheel pad- dles
*
• Press the brake or accelerator pedal
Turn the function off by changing drive modes * or
by turning ECO off in the center display's Func- tion view. The vehicle will roll for short distances even if Eco Coast is turned off to help conserve fuel.However, for the best fuel economy, the functionshould be used as much as possible.

• When the brake system's Auto Hold functionis activated, the engine will not auto-startuntil the accelerator pedal is pressed.
• When
Adaptive cruise or Pilot Assist are
activated, the engine will auto-start when the accelerator pedal is pressed or if the
button is pressed on the left-side steering wheel keypad.
• Keep the brake pedal depressed but pressthe accelerator pedal. The engine will auto-start.
• On a downhill incline, release the brake pedalso that the vehicle begins to roll. The enginewill auto-start after a slight increase in speed.

Certain conditions must be met for the Start/ Stop feature to function. If a condition is not met,this will be indicated in the instrument panel.
The engine does not auto-stopIn certain situations or conditions, the engine may not auto-stop when the vehicle comes to a
standstill, such as when:
• the vehicle has not reached a speed of approx. 8 mph (12 km/h) after starting.
• after several auto-stops, the speed mustagain exceed approx. 8 mph (12 km/h)before the next auto-stop.
• the driver's seat belt is unbuckled.
• the main battery's charge is below the mini-mum level.
• the engine has not reached its normal oper-ating temperature.
• the ambient temperature is below approx.23°F (-5°C) or above approx. 85°F (30°C).
• the windshield's heating function
* is acti-
vated.
• the climate system cannot keep the desiredsettings in the passenger compartment.
• the vehicle is backing up.
• the main battery's temperature is above orbelow the permitted limits.
• the driver is turning the steering wheel hard. •
the road's incline is very steep.
• the hood is opened.
• the transmission has not reached its normaloperating temperature.
• driving at high altitude and the engine hasnot reached its normal operating tempera-ture.
• the gear selector is in the manual shiftingposition.
• the ABS brakes have activated.
• hard braking (even if the ABS brakes havenot activated).
• many starts during a short time period havetriggered the starter motor's overheating pro-tection.
• a trailer's electrical system is connected tothe vehicle's electrical system.
The engine does not auto-startIn certain situations or conditions, the engine may not auto-start
after an auto-stop, such as:
• if the driver is not wearing a seat belt
• the gear selector is in the

Shiftlock The automatic transmission's shiftlock feature helps prevent inadvertently moving the gearselector between different positions.
There are two different types of shiftlock: mechanical and automatic.
Mechanical shiftlock
The gear selector can be moved back and forth freely between
N and D. There is a mechanical
shiftlock for the other positions. To move the gear selector to between P, R , N
and D, press the button on the front of the gear
selector (see the illustration).
Automatic shiftlock
From Park – P
In order to move the gear selector from the P
position, the brake pedal must be depressed and the ignition must be in mode II.
From neutral – N
If the gear selector is in N and the vehicle has
been stationary for more than 3 seconds (regard- less of whether or not the engine is running), theshiftlock feature will lock the gear selector in thisposition. In order to move the gear selector from the N
position, the brake pedal must be depressed and the ignition must be in mode II.
Shiftlock override
If the vehicle cannot be driven (e.g., due to a dis- charged battery), the shiftlock feature has to beoverridden in order to move the gear selector

P or D positions into N so that the vehi-
cle can be moved. To do so:
Lift away the rubber mat on the bottom of the storage compartment in front of the gearselector to expose the small hole for overrid-ing the shiftlock feature.
Press a small screwdriver or similar item into the hole and hold it down.
Press the button on the front side of the gear selector and move the selector to the N
position. Release the button and remove the screwdriver from the hole.
4. Put the rubber mat back into place.

Gear shift indicator
The gear shift indicator in the instrument panel shows the current gear (in manual shiftingmode) and will prompt the driver to shift up ordown to help get the best possible fuel econ-omy.
The gear shift indicator shows the current gear in the instrument panel and uses an upward arrowto recommend shifting to a higher gear.

A gear shift will take place each time a paddle is pulled if the engine speed (rpm) is within the per-missible range for the selected gear. The gear number shown in the instrument panel will change after each gear shift.
Deactivating the paddles
Manual deactivation in modes D and M
–Pull the right ( +) paddle toward the steering
wheel and hold it until the number of the cur- rent gear is no longer displayed in the instru-ment panel.
> The transmission will revert to automatic
gear shifting in the D mode.
Automatic deactivation
In shift mode D, if the paddles are not used for a
period of time, they will deactivate automatically. The number of the current gear will no longer bedisplayed. The paddles will remain active if engine braking is currently being used. In mode M, the paddles will not deactivate auto-
matically.

All Wheel Drive (AWD) 7
Your Volvo can be equipped with All Wheel Drive, which means that power is distributedautomatically between the front and rear wheels.
Under normal driving conditions, most of the engine's power is directed to the front wheels.However, if there is any tendency for the frontwheels to spin, an electronically controlled cou-pling distributes power to the wheels that havethe best traction. AWD reacts differently, depending on the drive mode * selected.
