NOTE
With a cold start, idling speed may be consid-
erably higher than normal for certain engine
types. This is done to get the emissions sys-
tem up to normal operating temperature as
quickly as possible, which minimizes exhaust
emissions and protects the environment.
CAUTION
•
When starting in cold weather, the auto-
matic transmission may shift up at slightly
higher engine speeds than normal until
the automatic transmission fluid reaches
normal operating temperature.
• Do not race a cold engine immediately
after starting. This could prevent fluids
from properly lubricating vital compo-
nents in the engine before it has reached
the proper operating temperature.
• The engine should be idling when the
gear selector is moved. Never accelerate
until the gear is fully engaged. Accelerat-
ing rapidly before a gear is properly
engaged could lead to harder wear of
components.
• To help prevent the transmission oil from
overheating, select P or N when idling at
a standstill for prolonged periods of time.

1.
Put the ignition in mode 0.
2. Make sure the auxiliary battery (the battery used to jump start the discharged battery)
has a voltage of 12 volts.
3. If the auxiliary battery is in another vehicle, turn off that vehicle's engine and make sure
that the vehicles are not touching each other.
4. Clamp the red jumper cable onto the auxiliary battery's positive (+) terminal (1).
CAUTION Connect the jump cable carefully to prevent
short circuits with other components in the
engine compartment.
5. Fold back the cover over your vehicle's posi-
tive (+) jump start terminal (2).
6.

Clamp the other end of the red jumper cable
to your vehicle's positive (+) jump start termi-
nal (2).
7. Clamp the black jumper cable onto the auxili- ary battery's negative (-) terminal (3).
8. Clamp the other end of the black jumper cable to your vehicle's negative (-) ground
point (4).
9. Make sure the jumper cables are securely attached to help prevent sparks while jump
starting. 10. Start the engine of the assisting vehicle and
let it run for a few minutes at a higher idling
speed than normal, about 1500 rpm.
11. Start your vehicle's engine. If the engine does not start, allow an additional 10
minutes of charging time and then try to start
the engine again.
NOTE When the engine is started under normal
conditions, the vehicle's electrical drive motor
is prioritized – the gasoline engine remains
off. This means that the electric motor has
"started" and the vehicle is ready to be driven
once the start knob has been turned clock-
wise. Start of the electric motor is indicated
by the indicator lights on the instrument panel
going out and its preselected theme illuminat-
ing.
CAUTION
Do not touch the connections between the
cable and the vehicle during the start attempt.
Risk of sparking. 12. Remove the jumper cables in the reverse
order ‒ first the black cables and then the
red cables.
Make sure that none of the clamps of the
black jumper cables come into contact with
either vehicle's positive (+) jump start termi-
nals or either of the red jumper cable's con-
nected clamps.

Automatic car washes
The vehicle should be washed as soon as it
becomes dirty. This makes the vehicle easier to
clean because dirt does not attach as strongly. It
also reduces the risk of scratches and keeps the
vehicle looking new.
Automatic car washesAn automatic car wash is a fast and easy way to
keep your vehicle clean, but it does not reach all
areas of the vehicle. For best results, Volvo rec-
ommends hand washing your vehicle or supple-
menting automatic car washes with a hand wash.
NOTE
Volvo recommends not washing the vehicle in
an automatic car wash during the first few
months; the paintwork on new vehicles takes
some time to fully harden.
CAUTION
Before driving the vehicle into a car wash,
deactivate the Automatic Braking when Sta-
tionary and Automatic Parking Brake Applica-
tion functions. If the functions are not deacti-
vated, the brake system will seize when the
vehicle is stationary and the vehicle will not be
able to roll.
CAUTION For automatic car washes in which the vehicle
is pulled forward on rolling wheels:
1.

Before washing the vehicle, make sure
that the automatic rain sensor is deacti-
vated. If it is not deactivated and inadver-
tently starts, the wiper arms could be
damaged.
2. To help prevent damage from the auto- matic car wash machinery, make sure
that the door mirrors are folded in, anten-
nas retracted or removed, and any auxili-
ary lights secured.
3. Drive into the automatic car wash.
4. Turn off the "Automatic Braking when Stationary" function using the switch in
the tunnel console.
5. Turn off the "Automatic Parking Brake Application" function in the center dis-
play's Top view.
6. Turn off the engine by turning the start knob in the tunnel console clockwise.
Hold the knob in position for at least
2 seconds.
The vehicle is now ready for the automatic car
wash.
CAUTION The system will automatically change to P
mode if the above steps are not followed. In P
mode, the wheels are locked, which they
should not be when the vehicle is being
washed in a car wash.
