When you drive a Volvo, you become our partnerin 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 modeB to utilize the electric motor's braking func-tion when the accelerator pedal is released.This helps charge the hybrid battery.

STARTING AND DRIVING
432Maintenance of the brake system
Regularly check the brake system components
for wear. To keep the vehicle as safe and reliable as possi-
ble, follow the Volvo service schedule specified in
the Warranty and Maintenance Records Informa-
tion booklet. New and replaced brake pads and
brake discs do not provide optimal braking effect
until they are "broken in" by driving a few hun-
dred kilometers (miles). Compensate for the
reduced braking effect by applying greater pres-
sure to the brake pedal. Volvo recommends only
using brake pads approved for your Volvo.
CAUTION The brake system's components should be
regularly checked for wear.
Contact a workshop for advice on how to do
this or let a workshop perform the inspection
- an authorized Volvo workshop is recom-
mended.

Brakes (p. 429) Parking brake
The parking brake helps keep the vehicle sta-
tionary by mechanically locking two wheels.
The parking brake controls are located in the tunnel
console between the seats.
When the electric parking brake is being applied,
a faint sound can be heard from the brake's elec-
tric motor. This sound can also be heard during
the automatic function check of the parking
brake.
If the vehicle is stationary when the parking brake
is applied, it will only be applied to the rear
wheels. If it is applied while the vehicle is moving,
the normal brakes will be used on all four wheels.
Braking will be transferred to only the rear
wheels when the vehicle is almost stopped.

sible, follow the Volvo service schedule speci-
fied in the Warranty and Maintenance Records
Information booklet.

and special tools to guarantee the highest quality
of service.
CAUTION To ensure the Volvo warranty is not invalida-
ted, check and follow the Service and War-
ranty Booklet.
Service and repairsService the vehicle regularly. Follow Volvo's rec-
ommended service intervals.

WARNING
Do not make any repairs on this vehicle your-
self. Electrical cables and/or components that
have come loose may only be corrected by an
authorized workshop – an authorized Volvo
workshop is recommended.
IntroductionThe maintenance services contain several checks
that require special instruments and tools and
therefore must be performed by a qualified tech-
nician. To keep your Volvo in top condition, spec-
ify time-tested and proven Genuine Volvo Parts
and Accessories.
The Federal Clean Air Act - U.S.
The Federal Clean Air Act requires vehicle manu-
facturers to furnish written instructions to the ulti-
mate purchaser to assure the proper servicing
and function of the components that control
emissions. These services, which are listed in the
"Warranty and Service Records Information"
booklet, are not covered by the warranty. You will
be required to pay for labor and material used.
Maintenance
Your Volvo passed several major inspections
before it was delivered to you, in accordance with
Volvo specifications. The maintenance proce-
dures outlined in the Warranty and Service
Records Information booklet, many of which will
positively affect your vehicle's emissions, should
be performed as indicated. It is recommended
that receipts for vehicle emission maintenance be
retained in case questions arise concerning
maintenance. Inspection and maintenance should
also be performed anytime a malfunction is
observed or suspected.
Applicable warranties - U.S./Canada
In accordance with applicable U.S. and Canadian
regulations, the following list of warranties is pro-
vided.
• New Vehicle Limited Warranty
• Parts and Accessories Limited Warranty
• Corrosion Protection Limited Warranty
• Seat Belt and Supplemental Restraint Sys-
tems Limited Warranty
• Emission Design and Defect Warranty
• Emission Performance Warranty
These are federal warranties. Other warranties
are provided as required by state/provincial law.
Refer to your separate Warranty and Service
Records Information booklet for detailed informa-
tion concerning each of the warranties.

Periodic maintenance helps minimize
emissions
NOTE •
Refer to your Service and Warranty Book-
let for a comprehensive service and main-
tenance schedule up to 240,000 km
(150,000 miles). This program contains
inspections and services necessary for
the proper function of your vehicle and
includes components that affect vehicle
emissions.
• The Warranty and Service Records Infor-
mation booklet also contains detailed
information concerning the warranties
that apply to your vehicle.
On-board Diagnostic SystemOBD II is part of your vehicle's computerized
engine management system. It stores diagnostic
information about your vehicle's emission con-
trols. It can light the Check Engine light (MIL) if it
detects an emission control "fault." A "fault" is a
component or system that is not performing
within an expected range. A fault may be perma-
nent or temporary. OBD II will store a message
about any fault.
Emission inspection readiness
How do states use OBD II for emission
inspections?
Many states connect a computer directly to a
vehicle's OBD II system. The inspector can then
read "faults." In some states, this type of inspec-
tion has replaced the tailpipe emission test.
How can my vehicle fail OBD II emission
inspection?
Your vehicle can fail OBD II emission inspection
for any of the following reasons:
• If your Check Engine (MIL) light is lit, your
vehicle may fail inspection.
• If your vehicle's Check Engine light was lit,
but went out without any action on your part,
OBD II will still have a recorded fault. Your
vehicle may pass or fail, depending on the
inspection practices in your area.
• If you had recent service that required dis-
connecting the battery, OBD II diagnostic
information may be incomplete and "not
ready" for inspection. A vehicle that is not
ready may fail inspection.
How can I prepare for my next
OBD II
emission inspection?
• If your Check Engine (MIL) light is lit - or was
lit but went out without service, have your vehicle diagnosed and, if necessary, serviced
by a qualified Volvo technician.
• If you recently had service for a lit Check
Engine light, or if you had service that
required disconnecting the battery, a period
of driving is necessary to bring the OBD II
system to "ready" for inspection. Two half-
hour trips of mixed stop-and-go/highway
driving are typically needed to allow OBD II to
reach readiness. Your Volvo retailer can pro-
vide you with more information on planning a
trip.
• Maintain your vehicle in accordance with your
vehicle's maintenance schedule.
Owner maintenancePeriodic maintenance requirements and intervals
are described in your vehicle's Warranty and
Service Records Information booklet.
The following points can be carried out between
the normally scheduled maintenance services.
Each time the car is refueled:
•Check the engine oil level.
• Clean the windshield, windshield wipers,
headlights, and taillights.
