Instrument panel showing unique hybrid-rela-ted information

WARNING
Please be aware that there is no sound fromthe engine when the vehicle is being poweredby the electric motor and it may be difficult todetect by children, pedestrians, cyclists andanimals. This is especially true at low speeds.

High-voltage electrical current WARNING
A number of electrical components in theXC90 T8 Twin Engine Plug-in Hybrid usehigh-voltage current and can be extremelydangerous if handled incorrectly. These com-ponents and any orange wiring in the vehiclemay only be handled by trained and qualifiedVolvo service technicians.

Hybrid-unique functions
Drive modes
Different drive modes can be selected while driv-ing, e.g., electric power only or a combination ofelectric and gasoline power. The vehicle calcu-lates the optimal combination of drivability, drivingexperience, environmental impact and fuel econ-omy for the selected drive mode. See also thearticle "Drive modes" for additional information.

Instrument panel
In certain driving situations, hybrid-unique infor-mation may be displayed in the instrument panel,such as: a hybrid battery gauge (current chargelevel), the current drive mode, a symbol that illu-minates when the gasoline engine is being used,a Hybrid Guide and the level of energy regenera-tion.

Preconditioning
In order to function optimally, the hybrid battery(and its related electrical systems) and the gaso-line engine (and its drive systems) should be atthe correct operating temperature. The hybridbattery's capacity is reduced considerably if it is
too cold or hot. Preconditioning prepares thevehicle's drive systems and passenger compart-ment before the vehicle is driven to help reducewear and energy consumption.
Charging the hybrid battery
CAUTION
Never connect the charging cable if there is arisk of thunderstorms/lightning.
The XC90 T8 Twin Engine Plug-in Hybrid uses alithium-ion battery that can be charged in severalways:
•A charging cable can be connected from thevehicle to a 110-volt AC socket. Chargingtime depends on the strength of the current.
•When the brakes are applied lightly, the elec-tric motor is used for engine braking, duringwhich the vehicle's kinetic energy is conver-ted into electric current that is used to helprecharge the hybrid battery.
•The hybrid battery is also recharged to a cer-tain extent when the gasoline engine is inoperation.

Using the center display
Many of the vehicle's functions can be con-trolled and settings can be made from thescreen in the center console, referred to in thisowner's information as the center display, whichis a touchscreen.

Using the center display's touchscreen
functionality
Two people can interact with the screen at thesame time, e.g., to adjust the temperature for thedriver and passenger sides.
The screen reacts differently depending onwhether the user taps, drags or swipes on thescreen. This makes it possible to move betweenviews, mark objects, scroll in lists and move appsby touching the screen in various ways. The fol-lowing table lists the gestures that can be usedon the screen:
An infrared film on the screen enables it to reactif a finger is directly in front of the screen (butnot actually touching it). This makes it possible touse the screen while wearing gloves.
CAUTION
Do not touch the screen with sharp objectsbecause this could cause scratches.
ProcedureGestureResult
Tap once.Marks an object, confirms a selection or activates a function.
Double-tap.Zooms in on an object such as a map.
Press and hold."Grabs" an object so that it can be dragged. Press and hold on the screen and drag the object to the desiredposition.
Tap with two fingers.Zooms out from an object such as a map.

WARNING
•Keep the following points in mind withrespect to the OWS system. Failure tofollow these instructions could adverselyaffect the system's function and result inserious injury to the occupant of the frontpassenger's seat:
•The full weight of the front seat passen-ger should always be on the seat cushion.The passenger should never lift him/herself off the seat cushion using thearmrest in the door or the center console,by pressing the feet on the floor, by sit-ting on the edge of the seat cushion, orby pressing against the backrest in a waythat reduces pressure on the seat cush-ion. This could cause OWS to disable thefront, passenger's side airbag.

WARNING
•Do not place any type of object on thefront passenger's seat in such a way thatjamming, pressing, or squeezing occursbetween the object and the front seat,other than as a direct result of the correctuse of the Automatic Locking Retractor/Emergency Locking Retractor (ALR/ELR)seat belt.
•No objects should be placed under thefront passenger's seat. This could inter-fere with the OWS system's function.

•Airbag system (p. 71)Side impact airbags
As an enhancement to the structural side impactprotection built into your vehicle, it is also equip-ped with Side Impact Protection System (SIPS)airbags.
The SIPS airbag system is designed to helpincrease occupant protection in the event of cer-tain side impact collisions. The SIPS airbags aredesigned to deploy only during certain side-impact collisions, depending on the crashseverity, angle, speed and point of impact.

NOTE
SIPS airbag deployment (one airbag) occursonly on the side of the vehicle affected by theimpact. The airbags are not designed todeploy in all side impact situations.
