NOTE
One of the remote keys must be in your pos- session or within range when you are behindthe vehicle in order to activate the foot move-ment sensor, even if the tailgate is alreadyunlocked. This is done to help prevent thesensor from inadvertently opening the tail-gate, for example, in a car wash. Be sure that the key is not within range when the vehicle is in an automatic carwash.
Operation
Kicking motion under the sensor's activation area
Opening/closing
–With the remote key within range, move your foot slowly forward in a kicking motion belowthe left section of the rear bumper withouttouching the bumper and take a step back.
> A brief audible signal will sound when the
tailgate begins to open/close.
The tailgate can be closed (or closed and locked) by pressing the
or buttons on the lower
edge of the tailgate 7
.
It can also be operated manually or by pressing the button on the lighting panel in the passengercompartment or on the remote key. If several attempts have been made to open/ close the tailgate using the foot sensor without aremote key within range, the function will timeout and will not be available for a short period.
NOTE
Foot operation may not be possible or func- tion normally if the sensor is obstructed bysnow, ice, dirt, etc.
5 Models equipped with the optional power tailgate only.

STARTING AND DRIVING

Before a long distance trip
It is always worthwhile to have your vehicle checked by a trained and qualified Volvo servicetechnician before driving long distances. Yourretailer will also be able to supply you with bulbs,fuses, spark plugs and wiper blades for your usein the event that problems occur.
As a minimum, the following items should be checked before any long trip:
• Check that engine runs smoothly and thatfuel consumption and the oil level are normal.
• Before leaving on a trip, fill the fuel tank andmake sure the hybrid battery is fully charged.During the trip, make a habit of refueling reg-ularly.
• Check for fuel, oil, and fluid leakage.
• Check condition of drive belts.
• Check state of the battery's charge.
• Examine tires carefully (including the sparetire where applicable), and replace those thatare worn. Also, check tire inflation pressure.
• The brakes, front wheel alignment, and steer-ing gear should be checked by a trained andqualified Volvo service technician only.
• Check all lights, including high beams.
• Reflective warning triangles are legallyrequired in some states/provinces.
• Have a word with a trained and qualifiedVolvo service technician if you intend to drive in countries where it may be difficult toobtain the correct fuel.
• Consider your destination. If you will be driv-ing through an area where snow or ice arelikely to occur, consider using snow tires.
Driving economically
Better driving economy can be obtained by thinking ahead, avoiding rapid starts and stopsand adjusting the speed of your vehicle to imme-diate traffic conditions.
Driving economically with Twin EnginePlug-in Hybrid vehicles
Plan your driving in order to utilize the electric motor as much as possible. An energy-conserving driving style lowers current consumption from the hybrid battery and helpsincrease electric driving range.
Charging
• Charge the hybrid battery as often as possi- ble from the electricity grid using the charg-ing cable. Whenever possible, begin a drivewith a fully charged battery.
• Check the location of charging points.
• Where possible, choose parking spaces withcharging points.

NOTE
Unleaded fuel is required for vehicles with three-way catalytic converters.
Heated oxygen sensorsThe heated oxygen sensors monitor the oxygen content of the exhaust gases. Readings are fedinto a control module that continuously monitorsengine functions and controls fuel injection. Theratio of fuel to air into the engine is continuouslyadjusted for efficient combustion to help reduceharmful emissions.

NOTE
The vehicle cannot be started if the hybrid battery is discharged.
CAUTION
The vehicle's jumper cable connecting termi- nals may only be used to start your vehicle.
They are not intended to be used to help start another vehicle. If they are used to startanother vehicle, a fuse may blow and the ter-minal will not function.

Blue status indicator
•When the charge module is plugged into a wall socket, the blue status indicator illumi-nates and glows steadily to show that thecharger is ready to use.
• When the charge coupler (the plug on theother end of the charging cable) has beenplugged into the vehicle's charging socket,the blue status indicator will flash once.
• The blue status indicator will then flashapproximately every two seconds to indicatethat charging is taking place.
• When the indicator light glows steadily, thisindicates that charging has been completed.This will also be indicated by the charginggauge on the instrument panel.
When charging is completed, press the releasebutton on the charge coupler and disconnect itfrom the vehicle. Unplug the charge module from the wall socket.

Hybrid battery charging current
Charging current is used to charge the hybrid battery and to precondition the vehicle. Chargingis done through a cable connected between thevehicle's charging socket and a120-/240-volt socket.
When charging is in progress, an indicator light in the charging socket illuminates to indicate thecharging status. Charging current is primarilyused to recharge the hybrid battery and to pre-condition the vehicle but is also used to rechargethe vehicle's start battery.
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.
NOTE
• At very low or high temperatures, some of the charging current is used to heat orcool the hybrid battery and the passengercompartment, which means that chargingmay take longer.
• Charging time is longer if preconditioninghas been selected. This time is primarilyaffected by the ambient temperature.
Charging coupler and charging socket
There are normally several 120-/240-volt power consumers in a fuse circuit, which means thatmore than one power consumer (lighting, vacuumcleaner, electric drill, etc.) may use the same fuse.
