Continuous high beams
High beam flashPull the lever slightly toward the steering wheel. The high beams illuminate until the lever isreleased.
Continuous high beamsContinuous high beams are available if the light- ing ring is turned to 9 or . Toggle to
high beams by moving the lever forward. Return to low beams by moving the lever toward thesteering wheel. The
symbol will illuminate in the instrument
panel when the high beams are on.
Active high beamsThe active high beam system uses a camera at the upper edge of the windshield to detect theheadlights of oncoming vehicles or the taillightsof a vehicle directly ahead. When this happens,the headlights will automatically switch from highbeams to low beams. When the camera no longer detects an approaching vehicle or one that is ahead, yourheadlights will switch back to high beams.
Vehicles with halogen headlights 10
When the camera no longer detects the head- lights of an approaching vehicle or the taillightsof a vehicle ahead, your headlights will switchback to high beams after several seconds.
Operation
Activate/deactivate this function by turning the lighting ring past the
position to .When released, the ring will automatically return to the
position.
If the active high beam function has not been activated, switching between high and low beamsmust be done manually. A white symbol (
) in the instrument panel
indicates that the function has been activated. When the high beams are on, the symbol will change to blue.
NOTE
•Keep the windshield in front of the cam- era free of ice, snow, dirt, etc.
• Do not mount or in any way attach any-thing on the windshield that couldobstruct the camera.
If a message is displayed in the instru- ment panel saying that active highbeams are temporarily unavailable,switching between high and low beams
will have to be done manually. However, the light switch can remain in the
position. The
same applies if a message saying that the wind- shield sensors are blocked and the symbol above are displayed. The
symbol will go out if this
happens.

Air quality
The materials used in the passenger compart- ment have been selected and designed to bepleasant and comfortable, even for people withasthma or other types of allergies.
Materials in the passenger compartment
The materials used have been developed to help minimize the amount of dust and make the cabineasier to keep clean. All floor mats (including the cargo compartment) can be easily removed for cleaning. Only use cleaning agents and car care products recommended by Volvo. Clean regularly and fol-low the instructions included with the product.
Air filtering systemsIn addition to the passenger compartment filter, the Clean Zone Interior Package * and the Interior
Air Quality System * contribute to a cleaner pas-
senger compartment environment.
Clean Zone *The Clean Zone function monitors the conditions that affect good passenger compartment airquality.
The indicator is shown in center display's Cli- mate view.
The indicator is shown in the climate bar when the Climate view is not open.
If the air quality conditions are not met, the text
Clean Zone will be white. When the conditions
are met, the text will change to blue.

Hybrid charging cable circuit breaker
The charging cable has a circuit breaker that helps protect against current overloads andelectrical shocks.
If the charging cable's residual current breaker is triggered, the blue indicator light in the chargecoupler will not illuminate when the cable is plug-ged into a 120-/240-volt socket or the red indi-cator light will glow steadily. Have the socketchecked by a licensed electrician or try usinganother 120-/240-volt wall socket.
WARNING
• Charging the hybrid battery may only be done from approved, grounded 120-/240-volt sockets. If the electrical circuitor electrical socket's capacity is notknown, let a licensed electrician inspectthe electrical circuit's capacity. Using acharge level that exceeds the electricalcircuit's or electrical outlet's capacity maystart a fire or damage the electrical cir-cuit.
• The charging cable's residual currentbreaker helps protect the vehicle's charg-ing system but cannot ensure that an cur-rent overload will never occur.
• Never use visibly worn or damaged elec-trical sockets. Doing so could lead to firesor serious injury.
• Never connect the charging cable to anextension cord.
• Maintenance or replacement of the hybridbattery may only be performed by atrained and qualified Volvo service techni-cian.

CAUTION
Never disconnect the charging cable from the 120-/240-volt socket while charging is inprogress. This could damage the socket. Always stop the charging process (by unlock- ing the vehicle) and disconnect the chargingcable from the vehicle's charging socket before disconnecting the other end from the
120-/240-volt socket being used.
During the charging process, condensation may form under the vehicle, which is normal and iscaused by cooling the hybrid battery.

Charging the hybrid battery In addition to the conventional fuel tank, Twin Engine Plug-in Hybrid vehicles are also equip-ped with a rechargeable lithium-ion hybrid bat-tery.
The hybrid battery is recharged using a charging cable located in a storage compartment underthe floor of the cargo area. See also the article"Charging cable."
WARNING
The hybrid electrical system in your vehicle uses high voltage electrical current. Any dam-age to this system or to the hybrid batterymay result in the danger of overheating, fire,or serious injury. If the vehicle is involved in acollision or is subjected to flooding, fires, etc.,have it inspected by a trained and qualifiedVolvo service technician. Prior to this inspec-tion, the vehicle should be parked outdoors ata safe distance from any building or poten-tially flammable materials.
The hybrid battery's charging time depends on the charging current used.
NOTE
The capacity of the hybrid battery diminishes somewhat with age and use, which couldresult in increased use of the gasoline engineand consequently, slightly higher fuel con-sumption.
Charging is indicated in three ways: • Charge module (the unit that is plugged into the wall socket): The blue indicator light onthe cable's charge module will flash red sev-eral times when the unit is plugged into awall socket while a safety check is being per-formed and will then glow steadily blue toindicate that the charger is ready to use.
• A green indicator light in the vehicle's charg-ing socket will flash green while the batteryis charging and will glow steadily green whenthe hybrid battery is fully charged. The blueindicator light in the charge module will alsoflash while charging is underway and willglow steadily blue when charging is comple-ted.
• A gauge in the instrument panel will alsoindicate the battery's charge level.
The hybrid battery charging process also chargesthe vehicle's start battery. If the hybrid battery's temperature is below – 13 ºF (–10 ºC) or above +104 ºF (+40 ºC), some
of the vehicle's functions may be reduced or not
