Loading recommendations
There are a number of things that are importantto consider when carrying loads in or on thevehicle.
Load-carrying capacity is determined by the vehi-cle's curb weight. The total weight of all passen-gers and any installed accessories reduces thevehicle's load-carrying capacity by the corres-ponding amount.
WARNING
The vehicle's driving characteristics changedepending on the weight and position of theload.

Loading the cargo compartment/trunk
Keep the following in mind when loading:
Position objects so they are pressing againstthe rear seat backrests.
Heavy objects should be positioned as lowas possible. Avoid placing heavy objects onfolded-down seat backrests.
Cover sharp corners with a soft cloth or simi-lar to help prevent damage to the upholstery.
Use the load anchoring eyelets and tension-ing straps or similar to secure all objects.
WARNING
In a head-on collision at a speed of 50 km/h(30 mph), an unsecured object weighing20 kg (44 pounds) can reach a projectileweight equivalent to 1000 kg (2200 pounds).

WARNING
If objects are loaded higher than the upperedge of the side windows, leave a 10 cm(4 in.) space between the objects and thewindow. Objects placed closer to this couldimpede the function of the inflatable curtainconcealed inside the headlining.

WARNING
Always secure the load. Otherwise, it may shiftduring heavy braking and injure people in thevehicle.
Cover sharp edges and sharp corners withsomething soft.
Turn off the engine and apply the parkingbrake when loading/unloading long objects.Otherwise, it is possible for the load to reachthe gear lever or gear selector and move it toa drive position – which could cause the vehi-cle to begin rolling.

Check periodically to ensure that the loadcarriers and load are properly secured.Secure the load firmly using tie straps orsimilar.
If the load is longer than the vehicle, such asa canoe or kayak, attach the towing eyelet inits front outlet and secure the tie straps in it.
The vehicle's wind resistance and fuel con-sumption increase with the size of the load.
Drive smoothly. Avoid rapid acceleration, hardbraking and fast cornering.

WARNING
The vehicle's center of gravity and drivingcharacteristics are altered by roof loads.
Follow the vehicle's specifications regardingweights and maximum permitted load.

On-board Diagnostic System
OBD II is part of your vehicle's computerizedengine management system. It stores diagnosticinformation about your vehicle's emission con-trols. It can light the Check Engine light (MIL) if itdetects an emission control "fault." A "fault" is acomponent or system that is not performingwithin an expected range. A fault may be perma-nent or temporary. OBD II will store a messageabout any fault.
Emission inspection readiness
How do states use OBD II for emission
inspections?
Many states connect a computer directly to avehicle's OBD II system. The inspector can thenread "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 inspectionfor any of the following reasons:
If your Check Engine (MIL) light is lit, yourvehicle 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. Yourvehicle may pass or fail, depending on theinspection practices in your area.
If you had recent service that required dis-connecting the battery, OBD II diagnosticinformation may be incomplete and "notready" for inspection. A vehicle that is notready may fail inspection.

How can I prepare for my next OBD II
emission inspection?
If your Check Engine (MIL) light is lit or waslit but went out without service, have your
vehicle diagnosed and, if necessary, servicedby a qualified Volvo technician.
If you recently had service for a lit CheckEngine light, or if you had service thatrequired disconnecting the battery, a periodof driving is necessary to bring the OBD IIsystem to "ready" for inspection. Two half-hour trips of mixed stop-and-go/highwaydriving are typically needed to allow OBD II toreach readiness. Your Volvo retailer can pro-vide you with more information on planning atrip.
Maintain your vehicle in accordance with yourvehicle's maintenance schedule.

Data transfer between vehicle andworkshop over Wi-Fi
Volvo workshops have a designated Wi-Fi net-work for secure data transfer between your vehi-cle and the workshop. Your visit to the workshopwill be easier and more effective when diagnos-tics information and software can be transferredover the workshop's network.
At the workshop, your service technician can con-nect your vehicle to the workshop's Wi-Fi net-work to perform troubleshooting and downloadsoftware. For this type of communication, thevehicle only connects to a workshop's network. Itis not possible to connect the vehicle to anotherWi-Fi network (e.g. your home network) in thesame way as to a workshop's network.

Connecting with remote key
Connection is usually managed by the servicetechnician, who will use the remote key buttons. Itis therefore important to bring a key with buttonswith you when you visit the workshop. Pressingthe lock button on the remote key three times willconnect the vehicle to the workshop's Wi-Fi net-work.
When the car is connected to a Wi-Fi network,
the symbol appears in the center display.
