Shiftlock The automatic transmission's shiftlock feature helps prevent inadvertently moving the gearselector between different positions.
There are two different types of shiftlock: mechanical and automatic.
Mechanical shiftlock
The gear selector can be moved back and forth freely between
N and D. There is a mechanical
shiftlock for the other positions. To move the gear selector to between P, R , N
and D, press the button on the front of the gear
selector (see the illustration).
Automatic shiftlock
From Park – P
In order to move the gear selector from the P
position, the brake pedal must be depressed and the ignition must be in mode II.
From neutral – N
If the gear selector is in N and the vehicle has
been stationary for more than 3 seconds (regard- less of whether or not the engine is running), theshiftlock feature will lock the gear selector in thisposition. In order to move the gear selector from the N
position, the brake pedal must be depressed and the ignition must be in mode II.
Shiftlock override
If the vehicle cannot be driven (e.g., due to a dis- charged battery), the shiftlock feature has to beoverridden in order to move the gear selector

Park – P
Select P when the vehicle is parked or when the
starting the engine. The vehicle must be station- ary when P is selected.
The ignition must be in mode II and the brake
pedal must be depressed before the gear selec-tor can be moved from P.
In position P, the transmission is mechanically
locked. Always apply the parking brake when the vehicle is parked.
NOTE
The gear selector must be in the P position
before the vehicle can be locked and the alarm set.
WARNING
Always apply the parking brake when the vehicle is parked, particularly when parking on a hill. The transmission's P mode may not be
able to keep the vehicle stationary if it is parked on an incline.
Reverse – R
The vehicle must be stationary before R can be
selected.
Neutral – N
No gear is selected and the engine can be started. Always apply the parking brake if thevehicle is not moving and the gear selector is in the N position.
The ignition must be in mode II and the brake
pedal must be depressed before the gear selec-tor can be moved from N.
Drive – D
D is the normal driving position and gear shifting
is fully automatic. The vehicle must be stationary when the gear selector is moved from R to D.
Manual shifting – M (shown on the
instrument panel)
Manual shifting can be selected at any time and engine braking will occur when the acceleratorpedal is released. To select, move the gear selector from D to the
side toward " ±". The current gear (1 - 8) will be
shown in the instrument panel.
• Press the gear selector forward toward "
+"
(plus) and release it to shift up one gear.
• Pull the gear selector rearward toward "
–"
(minus) and release it to shift down one gear.

.
For smooth shifting and engine performance, the transmission will shift down automatically if thevehicle's speed becomes too low for the selectedgear. Move the gear selector to the side toward D at
any time to resume automatic gear shifting.
Safety functionTo help avoid excessive rpm that might cause engine damage, the transmission control modulehas a down-shift protection feature that in somesituations may prevent a down-shift or kickdown. During kickdown, the transmission may shift down one or more gears, depending on theengine's rpm and will shift up again when max.rpm is reached for a specific gear.

"– ": Shift down one gear.

A gear shift will take place each time a paddle is pulled if the engine speed (rpm) is within the per-missible range for the selected gear. The gear number shown in the instrument panel will change after each gear shift.
Deactivating the paddles
Manual deactivation in modes D and M
–Pull the right ( +) paddle toward the steering
wheel and hold it until the number of the cur- rent gear is no longer displayed in the instru-ment panel.
> The transmission will revert to automatic
gear shifting in the D mode.
Automatic deactivation
In shift mode D, if the paddles are not used for a
period of time, they will deactivate automatically. The number of the current gear will no longer bedisplayed. The paddles will remain active if engine braking is currently being used.

All Wheel Drive (AWD) 6
Your Volvo can be equipped with All Wheel Drive, which means that power is distributedautomatically between the front and rear wheels.
Under normal driving conditions, most of the engine's power is directed to the front wheels.However, if there is any tendency for the frontwheels to spin, an electronically controlled cou-pling distributes power to the wheels that havethe best traction. AWD reacts differently, depending on the drive mode * selected.
