NOTE
•The tire monitoring systems use a tem- perature compensated pressure value.This pressure value is dependent on tiretemperature and ambient temperature,which can differ from the recommendedcold tire pressure in the tire inflation tableand on the tire pressure placard locatedon the driver's side B-pillar (the structuralmember at the side of the vehicle, at therear of the driver's door opening). Thismeans that it may sometimes be neces-sary to inflate them slightly above therecommended cold pressure value(approx. 3-4 psi or 0.2-0.3 bar) in orderto reset a low tire pressure warning.
• To help avoid incorrect tire inflation pres-sure, if possible only inflate the tireswhen they are cold. The tires are consid-ered to be cold when they have the sametemperature as the surrounding (ambi-ent) air. This temperature is normallyreached after the vehicle has beenparked for at least 3 hours. After driving adistance of approximately 1 mile (1.6 km),the tires are considered to be hot.
CAUTION
•
After inflating the tires, always reinstall the valve cap to help avoid damage to thevalve from dirt, gravel, etc.
• Use plastic valve caps only. Metal capscould corrode and become difficult toremove.
WARNING
•Incorrect inflation pressure could lead to tire failure, resulting in a loss of control ofthe vehicle.
• Tire monitoring systems cannot indicatesudden tire damage caused by externalfactors (e.g., a blowout) in advance.

Self-supporting run flat tires (SST)
Self-supporting run flat tires are available as optional equipment on certain models.
The vehicle must be equipped with one of the tire pressure monitoring systems if tires of this typeare installed. Tires of this type have specially reinforced side- walls that make it possible to continue driving toa limited extent even though the tire has lostsome or all of its inflation pressure. These tiresare mounted on special rims (normal tires canalso be mounted on these rims). If an SST tire loses inflation pressure, the yellow TPMS symbol illuminates in the instrument paneland a text message is also displayed. If this hap-pens, reduce speed to not more than 50 mph(80 km/h). The tire should be replaced as soonas possible.

Onboard Diagnostic System OBD II is part of your vehicle's computerized engine management system. It stores diagnosticinformation about your vehicle's emission con-trols. It can light the Check Engine light (MIL) if itdetects an emission control "fault." A "fault" is acomponent or system that is not performingwithin an expected range. A fault may be perma-nent or temporary. OBD II will store a messageabout any fault.
Emission inspection readiness
How do states use OBD II for emission inspections?
Many states connect a computer directly to a vehicle's OBD II system. The inspector can thenread "faults." In some states, this type of inspec-tion has replaced the tailpipe emission test.
How can my vehicle fail OBD II emission inspection?
Your vehicle can fail OBD II emission inspection for any of the following reasons.
• If your Check Engine (MIL) light is lit, yourvehicle may fail inspection.
• If your vehicle's Check Engine light was lit,but went out without any action on your part,OBD II will still have a recorded fault. Yourvehicle may pass or fail, depending on theinspection practices in your area.
• If you had recent service that required dis-connecting the battery, OBD II diagnostic information may be incomplete and "notready" for inspection. A vehicle that is notready may fail inspection.
How can I prepare for my next OBD II
emission inspection?
• If your Check Engine (MIL) light is lit – or was lit but went out without service, have yourvehicle diagnosed and, if necessary, servicedby a qualified Volvo technician.
• If you recently had service for a lit CheckEngine light, or if you had service thatrequired disconnecting the battery, a periodof driving is necessary to bring the OBD IIsystem to "ready" for inspection. Two half-hour trips of mixed stop-and-go/highwaydriving are typically needed to allow OBD II toreach readiness. Your Volvo retailer can pro-vide you with more information on planning atrip.
• Maintain your vehicle in accordance with yourvehicle's maintenance schedule.
Booking service and repairs
Connected Service Booking (CSB) makes set- ting up a time for service, maintenance and/orrepairs directly from the vehicle quick and con-venient.
Prerequisites
• The owner (primary driver) must have a valid Volvo ID. See Volvo ID (p. 22) for additionalinformation.
• The vehicle must be connected to the Inter- net using a paired Bluetooth ®
cell phone.
See your Sensus Infotainment supplement for information on pairing a cell phone. On models equipped with Volvo On Call (VOC) *,
you can connect to the Internet using your separate VOC data plan. Refer to your sepa-rate Volvo On Call manual.
• By default, the retailer where you purchasedyour vehicle will be your preferred (primary)retailer/Volvo authorized workshop who willperform service and repairs on your vehicle.To change the preferred retailer, go to DealerLocator at volvocars.com and select aretailer, click on Service Scheduler and bookan appointment at the new preferred retailer.

Wiper blades – service position The windshield wiper blades must be in the verti- cal (service) position for replacement, washingor to lift them away from the windshield whene.g., removing ice or snow.
Wiper blades in service position
CAUTION
Be sure the wiper blades are not frozen in position before attempting to move them tothe service position.
To put the windshiield wipers in the service posi- tion: 1.Insert the remote key into the ignition slot 3
and press the START/STOP ENGINE but-
ton briefly to put the ignition in mode I (see
Ignition modes (p. 80) for detailed informa- tion about the ignition modes).
2. Press the START/STOP ENGINE button
again briefly to switch the ignition off.
3. Within 3 seconds, move the right steering wheel lever up and hold it for at least 1 sec-ond.
> The wipers will then move to the vertical(service) position on the windshield.
The wipers can be returned to the normal posi- tion by pressing the START/STOP ENGINE but-
ton briefly to put the ignition in mode I (or by
starting the engine).
CAUTION
If the wiper arms have been folded out from the windshield while in the service position,fold them back against the windshield beforereturning the wipers to the normal position tohelp avoid scratching the paint on the hood.

Cleaning the seat beltsClean only with lukewarm water and a mild soap solution.
Cleaning floor matsThe floor mats should be vacuumed or brushedclean regularly, especially during winter whenthey should be taken out for drying. Spots on tex-tile mats can be removed with a mild detergent.For best protection in winter, Volvo recommendsthe use of Volvo rubber floor mats. Consult yourVolvo retailer.
Spots on interior plastic, metal, or wood
surfaces
Cleaning interior plastic components should bedone with a cleaning agent specially designed forthis purpose. Consult your Volvo retailer.
CAUTION
• Do not use cleaning agents with high alcohol content such as washer fluid toclean instrument panel glass.
• Never spray cleaning agents or waterdirectly onto components with electricalbuttons or controls. Clean components ofthis type by applying the cleaning agent/water sparingly to a cloth and wiping thecomponents so that no liquid penetratesinto these components.
