Heater*
The heater helps the engine and passenger compartment reach the correct temperaturebefore and during driving.
The heater has two subfunctions: • Parking heater - heats the engine and pas- senger compartment, if necessary, when the parking climate control's preconditioning
* is
activated.
• Additional heater - heats the passenger compartment and engine, if necessary, dur-ing driving.
The heater is fuel-driven and is fitted in the frontright-hand wheel housing.
This symbol illuminates in the driverdisplay when the heater is active.
NOTE
When the heater is running, smoke may be emitted from the right-hand front wheel hous-ing and a low hum may be heard. A tickingsound from the fuel pump may also be heardfrom the rear section of the car. This is per-fectly normal.
Battery and chargingThe heater is powered by the car's starter battery. If the charge level of the starter battery is too low,then the heater is switched off automatically andthe driver display shows a message.
NOTE
Make sure that there is enough charge in the battery if the heater needs to be used.
Fuel and refuelling 6
Warning label on fuel filler flap.
The heater uses fuel from the car's normal fuel tank. If the car is parked on a steep hill, the front of the car should point downhill to ensure that there is asupply of fuel to the heater. If the level in the fuel tank is too low then theheater is switched off automatically and the driverdisplay shows a message.
NOTE
Make sure there is enough fuel in the car's normal fuel tank if the heater needs to beused.
WARNING
Fuel which spills out could be ignited. Switch off the fuel-driven heater before starting torefuel. Check in the driver display that the heater is switched off. The heat symbol is shown whenit is operating.

Parking heater *
The parking heater helps the passenger com- partment reach the correct temperature beforedriving.
The parking heater is one of two subfunctions of the car's heater. The heater is fitted in the frontright-hand wheel housing.
NOTE
When the heater is running, smoke may be emitted from the right-hand front wheel hous-ing and a low hum may be heard. A tickingsound from the fuel pump may also be heardfrom the rear section of the car. This is per-fectly normal.
The parking heater starts automatically when extra heat is required if the parking climate con- trol's preconditioning * is activated.
It is then switched off automatically when the right temperature, the time of a set timer or theheater's maximum running time has beenreached. The heater's maximum running time is 40 minutes.
NOTE
Make sure there is enough fuel in the car's normal fuel tank if the heater needs to beused. Make sure that there is enough charge in the starter battery if the heater needs to be used.
IMPORTANT
Repeated use of the parking heater combined with short journeys may discharge the batteryand impair starting. If the heater is used on a regular basis, then the car should be driven for the same amountof time that the heater is used in order toensure that the car's battery is recharged withthe same amount of energy as consumed bythe parking heater. The parking heater is usedfor a maximum of 40 minutes each time.
WARNING
Do not use preconditioning if the car is equip- ped with a heater *:
• In unventilated spaces indoors. Exhaust gases are emitted if the heater starts.
• In locations with combustible or flamma-ble material nearby. Fuel, gas, long grass,sawdust, etc. may ignite.
• When there is a risk that the heater

Alarm
*
The alarm alerts e.g. in the event of a break-in in the car.
When armed, the alarm is triggered if:
• a door, the bonnet or the tailgate is opened 18
• a movement is detected in the passenger compartment (if fitted with a movement detector
*)
• the car is raised or towed away (if fitted witha tilt detector
*)
• the starter battery's cable is disconnected or
• the siren is disconnected.
If there is a fault in the alarm system, the driver display shows the symbol and the message
Alarm system
failure Service required. In which
case, contact a workshop - an authorised Volvo workshop is recommended.
NOTE
Do not attempt to repair or alter components in the alarm system yourself. Any suchattempts may affect the terms of the insur-ance.
NOTE
The movement sensors trigger an alarm in the event of movement in the passengercompartment - air currents are also regis-tered. For this reason the alarm is triggered ifthe car is left with a window or the panoramic roof * open or if the passenger compartment
heater is used. To avoid this: Close the window/panoramic roof when leaving the car. If the car's inte-grated parking heater (or a portable electricheater) shall be used - direct the airflow fromthe air vents so that they are not pointingupwards into the passenger compartment.Alternatively, reduced alarm level can be used- see the section further down in this article.
Arming the alarmLock and arm the car alarm as follows:
• press the remote control key's lock button
• touch in the marked area on the outside of the door handle 19
or
• push on the tailgate's rubberised pressureplate 19
.
If the car is equipped with a power-operated tail- gate, the button on the underside of the tailgatecan also be used to lock the car and arm the caralarm.
18 Applies to certain markets.
19 Only applies to a car with keyless locking/entry (Passive Entry *)

Driving in water Driving in water means that the car is driven through deep water on a water-covered road-way. Driving in water must be carried out withgreat caution.
The car can be driven through water at a maxi- mum depth of 25 cm at a maximum speed ofwalking pace. Extra caution should be exercisedwhen passing through flowing water. During driving in water, maintain a low speed and do not stop the car. When the water has beenpassed, depress the brake pedal lightly andcheck that full brake function is achieved. Waterand mud for example can make the brake liningswet resulting in delayed brake function.
• If necessary, clean the contacts for the elec-tric heater and trailer coupling after driving inwater and mud.
• Do not let the car stand with water over thesills for any long period of time - this couldcause electrical malfunctions.

Handling of fuel
Do not use fuel with a lower quality than that rec- ommended by Volvo, as this will negatively affectengine power and fuel consumption.
WARNING
Always avoid inhaling fuel vapour and getting fuel splashes in the eyes. In the event of fuel in the eyes, remove any contact lenses and rinse the eyes in plenty ofwater for at least 15 minutes and seek medi-cal attention. Never swallow fuel. Fuels such as petrol, bioe- thanol and mixtures of them and diesel arehighly toxic and could cause permanent injuryor be fatal if swallowed. Seek medical atten-tion immediately if fuel has been swallowed.
WARNING
Fuel which spills onto the ground can be igni- ted. Switch off the fuel-driven heater before star- ting to refuel. Never carry an activated mobile phone when refuelling. The ring signal could cause sparkbuild-up and ignite petrol fumes, leading tofire and injury.
14 Only applies to a car with diesel engine.

Diesel particulate filter Diesel-driven cars are equipped with a particu- late filter, which results in more efficient emis-sion control.
The particles in the exhaust gases are collected in the filter during normal driving. So-called"regeneration" is started in order to burn awaythe particles and empty the filter. This requiresthe engine to have reached normal operatingtemperature. Regeneration of the particulate filter is automatic and normally takes 10-20 minutes. It may take alittle longer at a low average speed. Fuel con-sumption may increase slightly during regenera-tion.
Regeneration in cold weatherIf the car is frequently driven short distances incold weather then the engine does not reachnormal operating temperature. This means thatregeneration of the diesel particulate filter doesnot take place and the filter is not emptied. When the filter has become approx. 80% full of particles, a yellow warning triangle illuminates, and the message
Particulate filter full See
Owner's manual is shown in the driver display.
Start regeneration of the filter by driving the car until the engine reaches normal operating tem-perature, preferably on a main road or motorway. The car should then be driven for approximately20 minutes more.
NOTE
The following may arise during regeneration:
• a smaller reduction of engine power may be noticed temporarily
• fuel consumption may increase temporar-ily
• a smell of burning may arise.
When regeneration is complete the warning text is cleared automatically. Use the parking heater
* in cold weather - the
engine then reaches normal operating tempera- ture more quickly.
IMPORTANT
If the filter is completely filled with particles, it may be difficult to start the engine and the fil-ter is non-functional. Then there is a risk thatthe filter will need to be replaced.
