Center display
Many of the vehicle's main functions are con-trolled from the center display, a touchscreen thatreacts to taps or other gestures. The number ofphysical buttons is thereby minimized. The screencan be operated with or without gloves.
The center display is used to control e.g., the cli-mate and infotainment systems and to adjust thepower seats*. The information shown here can bedealt with by the driver or the front seat passen-ger.
Voice control system
The voice control system ena-bles the driver to operate cer-tain vehicle functions withoutremoving his/her hands fromthe steering wheel and itunderstands natural speech.Use voice commands to e.g.,play a track on the infotainment system, make aphone call, raise the passenger compartmenttemperature or to read a text message.
For additional information about all of the func-tions/system, see the respective articles in theon-board owner's manual or the printed supple-ment.

Safety during pregnancy
The seat belt should always be worn duringpregnancy. However, it is crucial that it be worncorrectly.
The diagonal section should wrap over the shoul-der then be routed between the breasts and tothe side of the belly. The lap section should layflat over the thighs and as low as possible underthe belly. It must never be allowed to ride upward.Remove all slack from the belt and ensure that itfits close to the body without any twists.
As a pregnancy progresses, pregnant driversshould adjust their seats and steering wheel suchthat they can easily maintain control of the vehi-cle as they drive (which means they must be ableto easily operate the foot pedals and steeringwheel). Within this context, they should strive toposition the seat with as large a distance as pos-sible between their belly and the steering wheel.

Whiplash protection system
The Whiplash protection system (WHIPS) con-sists of specially designed hinges and bracketson the front seat backrests designed to helpabsorb some of the energy generated in a colli-sion from the rear (when the vehicle is rear-ended).

Function
In the event of certain rear-end collisions, thehinges and brackets of the front seat backrestsare designed to change position slightly to allowthe backrest/head restraint to help support theoccupant's head before moving slightly rearward.This movement helps absorb some of the forcesthat could result in whiplash.

WARNING
•The WHIPS system is designed to sup-plement the other safety systems in yourvehicle. For this system to function prop-erly, the three-point seat belt must beworn. Please be aware that no systemcan prevent all possible injuries that mayoccur in an accident.
•The WHIPS system is designed to func-tion in certain collisions from the rear,depending on the crash severity, angleand speed.
WARNING
•Occupants in the front seats must neversit out of position. The occupant's backmust be as upright as comfort allows andbe against the seat back with the seatbelt properly fastened.
•If your vehicle has been involved in a rear-end collision, the front seat backrestsmust be inspected by a trained and quali-fied Volvo service technician, even if theseats appear to be undamaged. Certaincomponents in the WHIPS system mayneed to be replaced.
•Do not attempt to service any componentin the WHIPS system yourself.

WARNING
•Boxes, suitcases, etc. wedged behind thefront seats could impede the function ofthe Whiplash Protection System.
•If the rear seat backrests are foldeddown, cargo must be secured to preventit from sliding forward against the frontseat backrests in the event of a collisionfrom the rear. This could interfere withthe action of the Whiplash ProtectionSystem.

Buckling a seat belt
1. Pull the belt out slowly. It should not be twis-ted or turned.
Be sure that the seat belt in the center posi-tion of the second row of seats is correctlypositioned in the seat belt guide.

NOTE
Each seat belt is equipped with a seat beltretractor that will lock up in the following sit-uations:
•if the belt is pulled out rapidly
•during braking and acceleration
•if the vehicle is leaning excessively
•when driving in turns
•if the Automatic Locking Retractor/Emer-gency Locking Retractor (ALR/ELR) isactivated (each seat belt (except for thedriver's belt) is equipped with theALR/ELR function, which is designed tohelp keep the seat belt taut. ALR/ELRactivates if the seat belt is pulled out as faras possible. If this is done, a sound fromthe seat belt retractor will be audible,which is normal, and the seat belt will bepulled taut and locked in place. This func-tion is automatically disabled when theseat belt is unbuckled and fully retracted).
2. Insert the latch plate into the receptacle. Theseat belt retractor is normally "unlocked" andyou can move freely, provided that the shoul-der belt is not pulled out too far.
>A distinct click will be audible.
WARNING
The seat belt latch plate should only beinserted into its intended receptacle. Insertingit into one of the other receptacles may pre-vent it from functioning properly.
3.The height of the seat belts in the front seatsand outboard rear seating positions can beadjusted. The height of the shoulder sectionof the seat belt must be correctly adjusted.
Press the button and move the upper seatbelt anchor up or down.
Position it as high as possible so that theshoulder section of the belt is across the seatoccupant's collarbone and not across thethroat.
