STARTING AND DRIVING
426
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

shows a symbol and a message. Other lamps on the trailer must be checked manually by thedriver before departure, see the heading "Check-ing trailer lamps".

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.
Switching off automatic checking
The automatic checking function can be switched off in the centre display. 1.Press
Settings in the top view.
2. Press
My CarLights and Lighting.
3. Deselect
Automatic Trailer Lamp Check.
Manual checking
If the automatic checking is switched off then it is possible to start the check manually. 1.Press
Settings in the top view. 2.
Press
My CarLights and Lighting.
3. Select
Manual Trailer Lamp Check.
> The lamp check starts. Exit the car to check lamp functionality.
Level control *The car's system for level control endeavours to maintain a constant height regardless of load (upto the maximum permissible weight). When thecar is stationary the rear of the car lowers slightly,which is normal.

WHEELS AND TYRES

Dimension designation for wheel rim
Wheel and rim dimensions are designated in accordance with the examples in the tablebelow.
All wheel rims have a dimension designation, for example: 8.5Jx19x47.5.
8.5 Rim width in inches
J Rim flange profile
19 Rim diameter in inches
47,5 Off-set in mm (distance from wheel centre to wheel contact surface against the hub)
The car has an approval for the complete vehicle with certain combinations of wheel rims andtyres.

100 Codes for the maximum permitted tyre load, tyre load index (LI)
W Speed rating for maximum permitted speed, speed rating (SS). (In this case 270 km/h (168 mph).)
Load indexEach tyre has a certain capacity to carry a load, a load index (LI). The car's weight determines theload capacity required of the tyres. The lowestpermitted load index is specified in a load indextable.
Speed ratingEach tyre can withstand a certain maximumspeed. Tyre speed rating, SS (Speed Symbol),must at least correspond with the car's topspeed. The table below shows the maximum per-mitted speed for each speed rating (SS). Theonly exception to these regulations is winter tyres3
, where a lower speed rating may be used.
If such a tyre is chosen, the car must not be driven faster than the speed rating of the tyre (forexample, class Q can be driven at a maximum of160 km/h (100 mph).) The top speed at whichthe car can be driven depends on road condi-tions, not the speed rating of the tyres.
NOTE
The maximum permitted speed is specified in the table.
Q 160 km/h (100 mph) (used only on win- ter tyres)
T 190 km/h (118 mph)
H 210 km/h (130 mph) V 240 km/h (149 mph)
W 270 km/h (168 mph) Y 300 km/h (186 mph)

Turn the handle under the bonnet anticlock- wise to release the bonnet from the lockcatches and lift the bonnet.
Warning - bonnet not closed
When the bonnet is released, the warn- ing symbol and the graphics in thedriver display will light up and anacoustic reminder will sound. If the car
starts rolling, an acoustic warning signal willrepeat. For more information on graphics, see section "Door and seatbelt reminder".
NOTE
If the warning symbol is lit or the warning sig- nal is heard despite the bonnet being closedproperly, contact an authorised Volvo work-shop.
Close the bonnet1. Push the bonnet down until it starts to fall from its own weight.
2. When the bonnet stops against the lock catch, push the bonnet to close it completely.

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.
