Contributing to a better environment
An energy-efficient and fuel-efficient car not only contributes to a reduced impact on the environ-ment, but also means reduced costs for theowner of the car. As the driver, it is easy toreduce fuel consumption and thereby savemoney and contribute to a better environment -here is some advice:
• Plan for an effective average speed. Speedsabove approx. 80 km/h (approx. 50 mph)and below 50 km/h (approx. 30 mph) lead toincreased energy consumption.
• Follow the Service and Warranty Booklet'srecommended intervals for service and main-tenance of the car.
• Avoid letting the engine idle - switch off theengine when stationary for longer periods.Pay attention to local regulations.
• Plan the journey - a lot of unnecessary stopsand uneven speed contribute to increasedfuel consumption.
• Use preconditioning
* before starting in cold
conditions - it improves starting capacity andreduces wear in cold weather. The enginereaches normal operating temperature morequickly, which decreases consumption andreduces emissions.
Also remember to always dispose of environmen-tally hazardous waste, such as batteries and oil, inan environmentally safe manner. Consult a work-shop in the event of uncertainty about how this type of waste should be discarded - an author-ised Volvo workshop is recommended.
Efficient emission controlYour Volvo is manufactured following the concept"Clean inside and out" – a concept that encom-passes a clean interior environment as well ashighly efficient emission control. In many casesthe exhaust emissions are well below the applica-ble standards.
Clean air in the passenger
compartment
A passenger compartment filter prevents dustand pollen from entering the passenger compart-ment via the air intake. The Interior Air Quality System (IAQS) * ensures
that the incoming air is cleaner than the air in the traffic outside. The system cleans the air in the passenger com- partment from contaminants such as particles,hydrocarbons, nitrous oxides and ground-levelozone. If the outside air is contaminated then theair intake is closed and the air is recirculated.Such a situation may arise in heavy traffic,queues and tunnels for example. IAQS is a part of the Clean Zone Interior Pack- age (CZIP) *, which also includes a function that
allows the fan to start when the car is unlocked with the remote control key.
InteriorThe material used in the interior of a Volvo iscarefully selected and has been tested in order tobe pleasant and comfortable. Some of the detailsare hand-made, such as the seams of the steer-ing wheel that are sewn by hand. The interior ismonitored in order not to emit strong odours orsubstances that cause discomfort in the event ofe.g. high heat and bright light.
Volvo workshops and the environmentRegular maintenance creates the conditions for along service life and low fuel consumption foryour car. In this way you also contribute to acleaner environment. When Volvo's workshopsare entrusted with the service and maintenanceof your car it becomes part of Volvo's system.Volvo makes clear demands regarding the way inwhich workshop premises shall be designed inorder to prevent spills and discharges into theenvironment. The workshop staff have the knowl-edge and the tools required to guarantee goodenvironmental care.
RecyclingSince Volvo works from a life cycle perspective, itis also important that the car is recycled in anenvironmentally sound manner. Almost all of thecar can be recycled. The last owner of the car istherefore requested to contact a dealer for refer-ral to a certified/approved recycling facility.

CLIMATE CONTROL

Passenger compartment filter All air entering the car's passenger compartment is cleaned with a filter.
Replacing the passenger compartment
filter
To maintain high climate system performance, the filter must be changed at regular intervals.Follow the Volvo Service Programme for the rec-ommended replacement intervals. If the car isused in a severely contaminated environment, itmay be necessary to replace the filter more often.
NOTE
There are different types of passenger com- partment filter. Make sure that the correct fil-ter is fitted.

Clean Zone Interior Package
*
Clean Zone Interior Package (CZIP) comprises a series of modifications that keep the passen-ger compartment even clearer from allergy andasthma-inducing substances.
The following is included:
• An enhanced fan function that means that the fan starts when the car is unlocked withthe remote control key. The fan fills the pas-senger compartment with fresh air. The func-tion starts when required and is disengagedautomatically after a time or when one of thepassenger compartment doors is opened.The amount of time the fan runs is reducedgradually due to reduced need up until thecar is 4 years old.
• The fully automatic air quality system InteriorAir Quality System (IAQS).

Interior Air Quality System *
Interior Air Quality System (IAQS) is a fully auto- matic air quality system that separates gasesand particles to reduce the levels of odours andcontaminants in the passenger compartment.
IAQS is a part of the Clean Zone Interior Package (CZIP) and cleans the air in the passen-ger compartment from contaminants such as par-ticles, hydrocarbons, nitrous oxides and ground-level ozone. If the air quality sensor senses that the outside air is contaminated, the air intake is closed andair recirculation is activated.
NOTE
The air quality sensor must always be enabled to ensure the best air in the passenger com-partment. In a cold climate recirculation is limited so as to prevent misting. In the event of misting, the defrost functions for windscreen, side windows and rear win-dow should be used.
Activating/deactivating the air quality sensor
It is possible to set whether the air quality sensor should be activated/deactivated.

STARTING AND DRIVING
407
•
Brake now and again to remove any layer of salt. Make sure that other road users are notput at risk by the braking.
• Gently depress the brake pedal after finish-ing driving and before starting your next trip.
MaintenanceTo keep the car as safe and reliable as possible,follow the Volvo service intervals as specified inthe Service and Warranty Booklet. New and replaced brake linings and brake discs do not provide optimal braking effect until theyhave been "worn in" a few hundred kilometres.Compensate for the reduced braking effect bydepressing the brake pedal harder. Volvo recom-mends only fitting brake linings that are approvedfor your Volvo.
IMPORTANT
The wear on the brake system's components must be checked regularly. Contact a workshop for information about the procedure or engage a workshop to carry outthe inspection - an authorised Volvo work-shop is recommended.
Symbols in the driver display

Specification
Check the brake fluid level. If the level is low, fill with brake fluid andcheck for the cause of the brakefluid loss.
Constant glow for 2 seconds when the engine is started: Automaticfunction check. Constant glow for more than 2 seconds: Fault in the ABS system.The car's normal brake system isstill working, but without the ABSfunction.
WARNING
If both the warning lamps for brake fault and ABS fault illuminate at the same time, a faulthas occurred in the brake system.
• If the level in the brake fluid reservoir is normal at this stage, drive carefully to thenearest workshop and have the brakesystem checked - an authorised Volvoworkshop is recommended.
• If the brake fluid is below the
MIN level in
the brake fluid reservoir, do not drive fur-ther before topping up the brake fluid.The reason for the loss of brake fluidmust be investigated.

Engine oil
An approved engine oil must be used in order that the recommended service intervals can beapplied.
Volvo recommends:
IMPORTANT
In order to fulfil the requirements for the engine's service intervals all engines are filledwith a specially adapted synthetic engine oilat the factory. The choice of oil has beenmade very carefully with regard to service life,starting characteristics, fuel consumption andenvironmental impact. An approved engine oil must be used in order that the recommended service intervals canbe applied. Only use a prescribed grade of oilfor both filling and oil change, otherwise thereis a risk of the service life, starting characte-ristics, fuel consumption and environmentalimpact of the car being affected. If engine oil of the prescribed grade and vis- cosity is not used, engine related componentsmay become damaged. Volvo Car Corporationdisclaims any liability for any such damage. Volvo recommends that oil changes are car- ried out at an authorised Volvo workshop.
Volvo uses different systems for warning of low/ high oil level or low oil pressure. Certain enginevariants have an oil pressure sensor, and then thedriver display's warning symbol for low oil pres- sure
is used. Other variants have an oil
level sensor, when the driver is informed via the driver display's warning symbol
and display texts. Certain variants have both systems. Contact a Volvo dealer for more information. Change the engine oil and oil filter in accordance with the intervals specified in the Service andWarranty Booklet. Using oil of a higher than specified grade is per- mitted. If the car is driven in adverse conditions,Volvo recommends using an oil of a higher gradethan the one specified.

Adverse driving conditions for engine oil Adverse driving conditions can lead to abnor- mally high oil temperature or oil consumption.Below are some examples of adverse drivingconditions.
Check the oil level more frequently for long jour- neys:• towing a caravan or trailer
• in mountainous regions
• at high speeds
• in temperatures colder than -30 °C or hotterthan +40 °C.
The above also apply to shorter driving distancesat low temperatures. Choose a fully synthetic engine oil for adverse driving conditions. It provides extra protection forthe engine.
