Volvo and the environment
Volvo is committed to the well-being of its cus-tomers. As a natural part of this commitment, wecare about the environment in which we all live.Concern for the environment means an everydayinvolvement in reducing our environmentalimpact.
Volvo's environmental activities are based on aholistic view, which means we consider the over-all environmental impact of a product throughoutits complete life cycle. In this context, design, pro-duction, product use, and recycling are all impor-tant considerations. In production, Volvo haspartly or completely phased out several chemicalsincluding CFCs, lead chromates, asbestos, andcadmium; and reduced the number of chemicalsused in our plants 50% since 1991.
Volvo was the first in the world to introduce intoproduction a three-way catalytic converter with aLambda sond, now called the heated oxygen sen-sor, in 1976. The current version of this highlyefficient system reduces emissions of harmfulsubstances (CO, HC, NOx) from the exhaust pipeby approximately 95 – 99% and the search toeliminate the remaining emissions continues.Volvo is the only automobile manufacturer tooffer CFC-free retrofit kits for the air conditioningsystem of all models as far back as the 1975model 240. Advanced electronic engine controlsand cleaner fuels are bringing us closer to ourgoal. In addition to continuous environmental
refinement of conventional gasoline-poweredinternal combustion engines, Volvo is activelylooking at advanced technology alternative-fuelvehicles.
When you drive a Volvo, you become our partnerin the work to lessen the car's impact on theenvironment. To reduce your vehicle's environ-mental impact, you can:
•Maintain proper air pressure in your tires.Tests have shown decreased fuel economywith improperly inflated tires.
•Follow the recommended maintenanceschedule in your Warranty and ServiceRecords Information booklet.
•Drive at a constant speed whenever possible.
•See a trained and qualified Volvo servicetechnician as soon as possible for inspectionif the check engine (malfunction indicator)light illuminates, or stays on after the vehiclehas started.
•Properly dispose of any vehicle-related wastesuch as used motor oil, used batteries, brakepads, etc.
•When cleaning your vehicle, please use gen-uine Volvo car care products. All Volvo carcare products are formulated to be environ-mentally friendly.

Volvo XC90 T8 Twin Engine Plug-in
Hybrid
•If possible, precondition the vehicle with thecharging cable before driving.
•If preconditioning is not possible in coldweather, use the seat and steering wheelheating primarily. Avoid heating the entirepassenger compartment, which reduces thehybrid battery's charge level.
•Choose the Pure drive mode to help mini-mize electric power consumption.
•In hilly terrain, put the gear selector in modeB to utilize the electric motor's braking func-tion when the accelerator pedal is released.This helps charge the hybrid battery.

Climate system voice commands
Voice commands can be used to control the cli-mate system to e.g., change the temperature,activate seat heating* or change blower (fan)speed.
To use the voice control system, press the on the right-side steering wheel keypad and sayone of the following commands after the tone:
•"Climate": starts a command dialog andprovides examples of commands that can beused.
•"Set temperature to X degrees": sets thedesired temperature.
•"Raise temperature"/"Lowertemperature": raises/lowers the tempera-ture.
•"Sync temperature": synchronizes the tem-perature in all of the vehicle's climate zoneswith the one set for the driver's side.
•"Air on feet"/"Air on body": opens thedesired air vent.
•"Air on feet off"/"Air on body off": closesthe desired air vent.
•"Set fan to max"/"Turn off fan": changesthe blower speed to Max/Off.
•"Raise fan speed"/"Lower fan speed":raises/lowers the blower speed.
•"Turn on auto": activates automatic climatecontrol.
•"Air condition on"/"Air condition off":activates/deactivates the air conditioning.
•"Recirculation on"/"Recirculation off":activates/deactivates recirculation.
•"Turn on defroster "/"Turn off defroster":activates/deactivates window and door mirrordefrosting.
•"Turn on max defroster"/"Turn off maxdefroster": activates/deactivates maxdefroster.
•"Turn on electric defroster"/"Turn offelectric defroster": activates/deactivatesthe electrically heated windshield*.
•"Turn on rear defroster"/"Turn off reardefroster": activates/deactivates the electri-cally heated rear window and door mirrors.
•"Turn steering wheel heat on"/"Turnsteering wheel heat off": activates/deacti-vates the electrically heated steering wheel*.
•"Raise steering wheel heat"/"Lowersteering wheel heat": raises/lowers theheating level for the electrically heated steer-ing wheel*.
•"Turn on seat heat"/"Turn off seat heat":activates/deactivates the electrically heatedseats*.
•"Raise seat heat"/"Lower seat heat": rai-ses/lowers the heating level for the electri-cally heated seats*.
•"Turn on seat ventilation"/"Turn off seatventilation": activates/deactivates seat ven-tilation*.
•"Raise seat ventilation"/"Lower seatventilation": raises/lowers the level for seatventilation*.

Left/right turn signals
Both turn signal indicators willflash when the hazard warningflashers are being used.
Forward lights
Active Bending Lights (ABL)
This symbol will illuminate if thereis a fault in the ABL system or ifany other fault is detected in theheadlight system.
Automatic/active high beamson
The symbol will be blue when theautomatic high beams are on.
Automatic/active high beamsoffThe symbol will be white whenthe automatic high beams are off.
High beam indicator
The symbol will illuminate whenthe high beams are on or whenhigh beam flash is being used.
SymbolExplanation

SymbolExplanation
PreconditioningC
The symbol illuminates when theengine/cabin heater/air condition-ing are preconditioning the vehi-cle.
Stability system
This symbol flashes when the sta-bility system is actively working tostabilize the vehicle. If the symbolglows steadily, there is a fault inthe system.
Stability system, sport mode
This symbol illuminates whenSport mode is activated. Sportmode offers more active drivingcharacteristics by monitoringmovement of the acceleratorpedal, steering wheel and corner-ing by allowing more lateral move-ment of the rear wheels beforethe stability system is activated.

CLIMATE

Climate control system
The vehicle is equipped with Electronic ClimateControl (ECC) that cools, heats, dehumidifiesand filters the air in the passenger compartment.

4-zone climate system
4-zone system climate zones
The 4-zone climate system makes it possible toset the left- and right-side temperatures sepa-rately for the front and rears seats.
All climate system settings are made from thecenter display and the buttons in the center con-sole. Settings for the rear seats can also bemade from the climate system panel on the rearside of the tunnel console.

Perceived temperature
The climate system regulates passenger com-partment temperature based on the perceivedtemperature, not on the actual one.
The selected passenger compartment tempera-ture is based on a physical perception relating tothe current ambient temperature, air flow, humid-ity, sunlight in the passenger compartment, etc.
The system's sunlight sensor monitors the side ofthe car where sunlight is entering the passengercompartment. This means that the actual tem-perature may differ between the right and leftsides of the compartment, even if the tempera-ture setting is the same for both sides.
