If the message
Car key not found is shown in
the driver display when starting, place the remote control key on the backup reader in the cupholder. Then try to start again.
NOTE
When the remote control key is placed in the cup holder, make sure that no other car keys,metal objects or electronic apparatus (e.g.mobile phones, tablets, laptops or chargers)are in the cup holder. Several car keys closeto each other in the cup holder can causeinterference with each other.
IMPORTANT
If the engine fails to start after 3 attempts - wait for 3 minutes before making a furtherattempt. Starting capacity increases if the bat-tery is allowed to recover.
WARNING
Never remove the remote control key from
the car while driving or during towing.
WARNING
Always take the remote control key out from the car when leaving the car and make surethe car's electrical system is in ignition posi- tion 0 - especially if there are children in the
car.
NOTE
The idling speed can be noticeably higher than normal for certain engine types duringcold starting. This is done in order that theemissions system can reach normal operatingtemperature as quickly as possible, whichminimises exhaust emissions and protects theenvironment.

Economical driving
Drive economically and eco-consciously by driv- ing smoothly, thinking ahead, and adjusting yourdriving style and speed to the prevailing condi-tions.
• For lower fuel consumption, activate ECO drive mode.
• Use the Eco Coast 17
freewheel function -
engine braking will cease and the car'skinetic energy can be used to freewheel forlonger distances.
• Drive in the highest gear 18
possible, adapted
to the current traffic situation and road -lower engine speeds result in lower fuel con-sumption. Use the gear shift indicator.
• Drive at a steady speed and keep a good dis-tance to other vehicles and objects to mini-mise braking.
• High speed results in increased fuel con-sumption - the wind resistance increaseswith speed.
• Do not run the engine to operating tempera-ture at idling speed, but rather drive with anormal load right after starting - a coldengine consumes more fuel than a warmone. •
Drive with the correct air pressure in thetyres and check this regularly - select ECOtyre pressure for best results.
• Choice of tyres can affect fuel consumption -seek advice on suitable tyres from a dealer.
• Remove unnecessary items from the car -the greater the load the higher the consump-tion.
• Use engine braking to slow down, when itcan take place without risk to other roadusers.
• A roof load and space box increase windresistance, leading to higher consumption -remove the load carriers when not in use.
• Avoid driving with open windows.
WARNING
Never switch off the engine while moving, such as downhill, this deactivates importantsystems such as the power steering andbrake servo.

Towing bracket
*
The car can be equipped with a towing bracket that makes it possible to tow e.g. a trailer afterthe car.
There may be different towing bracket variants available for the car; contact a Volvo dealer formore information. For information on towing capacity and towball load, see the section "Towing capacity and tow-ball load".
IMPORTANT
When the engine is switched off, the constant battery voltage to the trailer connector can beswitched off automatically so as not to drainthe starter battery.
IMPORTANT
The towball needs regular cleaning and lubri- cation with grease in order to prevent wear.
17 See the section "Drive mode ECO".
18 Applies to driving with manual gear changing.

NOTE
When a hitch with a vibration damper is used, the towball must not be lubricated. This also applies when fitting a bicycle rack that is clamped in around the towball.
NOTE
If the car is equipped with a towing bracket, there is no rear mounting for a towing eye.

The extendable/retractable towing hitch is always easily accessible and simple to extend orretract as needed. In the retracted position, thetowing hitch is completely concealed.
WARNING
Follow the instructions for retracting and extending the towing bracket carefully.
Extending the towing hitch
WARNING
Avoid standing close to the bumper in the centre behind the car when extending thetowing hitch.
1. Open the tailgate. A button for extending/ retracting the towbar is located on the right- hand side at the rear of the cargo area. Anindicator lamp in the button must illuminatewith a constant orange glow for the exten-sion function to be active.

Driving with a trailer
When driving with a trailer, there are a number of points that are important to think about regar-ding the towing bracket, the trailer and how theload is positioned in the trailer.
Payload depends on the car's kerb weight. The total of the weight of the passengers and allaccessories, e.g. towbar, reduces the car's pay-load by a corresponding weight. The car is supplied with the necessary equipment for towing a trailer.
• The car's towing bracket must be of anapproved type.
• Distribute the load on the trailer so that theweight on the towing bracket complies withthe specified maximum towball load. Towballload is calculated as part of the car's payload.
• Increase the tyre pressure to the recom-mended pressure for a full load. For moreinformation on tyre pressure, see the section"Approved tyre pressures".
• The engine is loaded more heavily than usualwhen driving with a trailer.
• Do not tow a heavy trailer when the car isbrand new. Wait until it has been driven atleast 1000 km.
• The brakes are loaded much more than usualon long and steep downhill slopes. Downshiftto a lower gear and adjust your speed. •
Follow the regulations in force for the permit-ted speeds and weights.
• Maintain a low speed when driving with atrailer up long, steep ascents.
• The maximum trailer weights given only applyto altitudes up to 1000 metres above sealevel. At higher altitudes, engine power andthus the car's climbing ability is decreaseddue to the reduced air density, and the maxi-mum trailer weight must therefore bereduced. The weight of the car and trailermust be decreased by 10 % for each addi-tional 1000 m (or part thereof).
• Avoid driving with a trailer on inclines of morethan 12%.
NOTE
Extreme weather conditions, driving with a trailer or driving at high altitudes in combina-tion with fuel quality are factors that consider-ably increase the car's fuel consumption.
Trailer connectorAn adapter is required if the car's towing bracket has a 13 pin connector and the trailer has a 7 pinconnector. Use an adapter approved by Volvo.Make sure the cable does not drag on theground.
IMPORTANT
When the engine is switched off, the constant battery voltage to the trailer connector can beswitched off automatically so as not to drainthe starter battery.
Trailer weightsInformation about Volvo's permitted trailer weights is available in the article "Towingcapacity and towball load".
WARNING
Follow the stated recommendations for trailer weights. Otherwise, the car and trailer may bedifficult to control in the event of suddenmovement and braking.
NOTE
The stated maximum permitted trailer weights are those permitted by Volvo. National vehicleregulations can further limit trailer weightsand speeds. Towbars can be certified forhigher towing weights than the car canactually tow.
Direction indicators and brake lights on the trailer
If one or more of the trailer's direction indicators or brake light bulbs is broken, the driver display

Checking trailer lamps *
Automatic checking
After a trailer is connected electrically, it is possi- ble to check that the trailer lamps are working viaan automatic lamp activation. The function helpsthe driver check that the trailer lamps are workingbefore starting off. The engine must be switched off to perform thecheck.
1. When a trailer is connected to the towing
bracket, the
Automatic Trailer Lamp
Check message is shown in the driver dis-
play.
2. Confirm the message by pressing the right- hand steering wheel keypad's O button.
> The lamp check starts.
3. Exit the car to check lamp functionality. > All trailer lamps start to flash - then thelamps are switched on one at a time.
4. Visually check that all lamps available on the trailer are operational.
5. After a moment, all lamps on the trailer flash again.
> The check is complete.

Weights Max. gross vehicle weight, etc. can be read on a label in the car.
Kerb weight includes the driver, the fuel tank 90% full and all fluids. The weight of passengers and accessories, and towball load (when a trailer is hitched) influencethe load capacity and are not included in the kerbweight. Permitted max. load = Gross vehicle weight - Kerb weight.
NOTE
The documented kerb weight applies to cars in the standard version - i.e. a car withoutextra equipment or accessories. This meansthat for every accessory added the loadingcapacity of the car is reduced correspondinglyby the weight of the accessory. Examples of accessories that reduce load capacity are the different equipment levels(e.g. Kinetic, Momentum, Summum), as wellas other accessories such as towbar, loadcarrier, space box, audio system, auxiliarylamps, GPS, fuel-driven heater, safety grille,carpets, cargo cover, power seats, etc. Weighing the car is a certain way of ascer- taining the kerb weight of your own particularcar.
WARNING
The car's driving characteristics change depending on how heavily it is loaded andhow the load is distributed.
The decal is positioned on the door pillar, and will be visible when the right-hand rear door is opened.
