28 goal. 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 partner in the work to lessen the vehicle'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.
Twin Engine vehicles
•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 mode B
to utilize the electric motor's braking func-
tion when the accelerator pedal is released. This helps charge the hybrid battery.

IntelliSafe - driver support
IntelliSafe is Volvo Cars' philosophy regarding vehicle safety. IntelliSafe consists of a number ofsystems, both standard and optional, that aredesigned to help make driving safer, preventaccidents and protect passengers and otherroad users.
SupportIntelliSafe includes driver support functions such as Adaptive cruise control * which helps the driver
to maintain an even speed combined with a pre- selected time interval to the vehicle ahead. Pilot Assist 4
helps the driver keep the vehicle in
the current traffic lane by providing steering assistance and maintaining an even speed and aset time interval to the vehicle ahead. Park Assist Pilot * helps the driver pull into and
out of parking spaces. Other examples of systems that can help the driver are the Active main beam, Cross Traffic Alert (CTA) * and Blind Spot Information (BLIS) *
systems.
PreventionCity Safety is a function intended to help prevent accidents. The function can help prevent or miti-gate a collision with pedestrians, cyclists, largeanimals or other vehicles. Light, sound and pulsa-tions in the brake pedal are provided to alert of a

Data recording
As part of Volvo's commitment to safety and quality, certain information is recorded regardingvehicle operation, functionality and incidents.
This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR isto record, in certain crash or near crash-like sit-uations, such as an airbag deployment or hittinga road obstacle, data that will assist in under-standing how a vehicle's systems performed. TheEDR is designed to record data related to vehicledynamics and safety systems for a short period oftime, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR inthis vehicle is designed to record such data as:
• How various systems in your vehicle wereoperating;
• Whether or not the driver and passengersafety belts were buckled/fastened;
• How far (if at all) the driver was depressingthe accelerator and/or brake pedal; and,
• How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better understand-ing of the circumstances in which crashes andinjuries occur. EDR data is only recorded by the vehicle if a more serious collision situation occurs. No data isrecorded by the EDR under normal driving condi-tions and the EDR never registers who is drivingthe vehicle or the location of a crash or a nearcrash-like situation. However, other parties, such as law enforcement, could combine the EDR datawith the type of personally identifying data rou-tinely acquired during a crash investigation. Toread data recorded by an EDR, special equipmentis required, and access to the vehicle or the EDRis needed. Furthermore, your vehicle is equipped with a number of computers whose task is to continu-ously control and monitor the vehicle's operation.They can also register some of this informationduring normal driving conditions, most importantlyif they detect a fault relating to the vehicle'soperation and functionality or upon activation ofthe vehicle's active safety systems (e.g. CitySafety and the auto-brake function). Some of theregistered information is required by technicianswhen carrying out service and maintenance toenable them to diagnose and rectify any faultsthat have occurred in the vehicle and to enableVolvo to fulfill legal and other regulatory require-ments. Information thus registered in the vehicleis registered in the vehicle's computers until thevehicle is serviced or repaired. In addition to theabove, the registered information may - on anaggregated basis - be used for research andproduct development purposes in order to contin-uously improve the safety and quality of Volvovehicles. For additional information, please contact Volvo.

Safety
The vehicle is equipped with a number of safety systems that work together to help protect thevehicle's driver and passengers in the event ofan accident.
The vehicle is equipped with a number of sensors that may react in the event of an accident andactivate different safety systems, such as the air-bag system and seat belt tensioners. Dependingon the specific conditions of the accident, e.g.collisions at certain angles, overturning or swerv-ing, the systems react differently to help providethe best protection. There are also mechanical safety systems such as the Whiplash Protection System. The vehicle is also built so that a large part of the force of a collision is distributed to the vehicle's members,pillars, floor, roof and other parts of the body. After an accident, the vehicle's safety mode may be activated if any important function in the vehi-cle has been damaged.
Warning symbol in the instrument panelThe warning symbol in the instrumentpanel illuminates when the vehicle's electrical system is in ignition mode II.
The symbol will go out after approx. 6
seconds if no faults are detected in the vehicle's safety systems.
WARNING
If the warning symbol remains illuminated or switches on while driving and the message
SRS airbag Service urgent Drive to
workshop is displayed in the instrument
panel, this indicates that something in the safety system is not functioning properly.Volvo recommends contacting an authorizedVolvo workshop for repairs as soon as possi-ble.
WARNING
Never attempt to alter or repair any of the vehicle's safety systems yourself. Incorrectlyperformed repairs to any system could impairfunction and lead to serious injury. Volvo rec-ommends contacting an authorized Volvoworkshop.
If this dedicated warning symbol is not functioning, the general warning sym-bol will illuminate instead and the samemessage will be displayed in the instru-
ment panel.

Safety mode Safety mode is a feature that is triggered after a collision if there is potential damage to an impor-tant function in the vehicle, such as the fuellines, sensors for one of the safety systems, thebrake system, etc.
If the vehicle has been involved in a collision, the text Safety mode See Owner's manual may
appear in the instrument panel along with the warning symbol if the panel is undamaged andthe vehicle's electrical system is intact. The mes-sage indicates that one or more of the vehicle'sfunctions may be reduced.
WARNING
Never attempt to restart the vehicle if you smell fuel fumes when the message Safety
mode See Owner's manual is displayed in
the instrument panel. Leave the vehicle imme- diately.
If safety mode has been set, it may be possible to reset the system in order to start and move thevehicle a short distance, for example, if it is block-ing traffic.
WARNING
Never attempt to perform repairs or reset electrical components on your own after thevehicle has been in safety mode. This couldresult in injury or prevent the vehicle fromfunctioning properly. Volvo recommends hav-ing the vehicle inspected and reset to normaloperating status by an authorized Volvo work- shop after
