SAFETY
* Option/accessory.50

WARNING
Never use a seat belt for more than oneoccupant. Never wear the shoulder portion ofthe belt under the arm, behind the back orotherwise out of position. Such use couldcause injury in the event of an accident. Asseat belts lose much of their strength whenexposed to violent stretching, they should bereplaced after any collision, even if theyappear to be undamaged.

WARNING
Do not use clips or fasten the belts aroundhooks or other parts of the interior. This willprevent the seat belt from fitting properly.

WARNING
Never damage the seat belts and never insertany foreign objects into the belt buckle. Thismay cause the seat belts and belt buckles tomalfunction in a collision. There is a risk ofserious injury.

Unbuckling seat belts
1. Press the red button on the seat belt recep-tacle and make sure the seat belt retractsfully into the retractor slot.
2. If it does not fully retract, guide the belt man-ually into the slot and make sure it does nothang loose.

Seat belt tensioners
The vehicle is equipped with standard and elec-tric* seat belt tensioners that can help tensionthe seat belt in a critical situation or collision.

Standard seat belt tensioners
All seat belts are equipped with a standard seatbelt tensioner.
In a collision of sufficiently violent force, the seatbelt tensioners will tension the seat belts in orderto more effectively restrain the occupants.

Electric seat belt tensioners *
The driver's and front passenger's seat belts areequipped with electric seat belt tensioners.
The seat belt tensioners interact and can be acti-vated in conjunction with the City Safety andRear Collision Warning driver support systems. Incritical situations, such as if the vehicle brakessuddenly, begins to skid or runs off the road (e.gif the vehicle rolls into a ditch, lifts off the groundor hits an obstacle in the road), or if there is a riskof collision, the seat belts can be pulled taut bythe seat belt tensioner's electric motor.
The electric seat belt tensioner helps to positionthe occupant more effectively in the seat, whichreduces the risk of the occupant striking the inte-rior of the passenger compartment and improvesthe effect of other safety systems such as theairbags.

DISPLAYS AND VOICE CONTROL
* Option/accessory.82
Instrument panel
The instrument panel displays information rela-ted to the vehicle and driving.
The instrument panel contains gauges, indicatorsand monitoring and warning symbols. What isshown in the instrument panel varies dependingon the equipment, settings and functions cur-rently active.
The instrument panel is activated as soon as adoor is opened, i.e. in ignition mode 0. The panelwill power down after a short period of time if it isnot used. To reactivate it, do one of the following:
Depress the brake pedal.
Activate ignition mode I.
Open one of the doors.

WARNING
If the instrument panel turns off, does notactivate when the ignition is switched on, orpart/all of the panel cannot be read, do notdrive the vehicle. Consult a workshop immedi-ately. Volvo recommends an authorized Volvoworkshop.

WARNING
If the instrument panel is not functioningproperly, information about brakes, airbags orother safety-related systems may not be dis-played. The driver will then not be able tocheck the status of the vehicle systems orreceive relevant warnings and information.
The illustration is generic - details may vary according tovehicle model.

For example:
The vehicle has been started, but is stationary and nopower is being requested.
The electric motor cannot supply the requested powerand the internal combustion engine will start.
The vehicle is generating current to recharge the battery,e.g. during light braking or engine braking on a down-slope.

Hybrid battery gauge
The hybrid battery gauge shows how much cur-rent is left in the hybrid battery.
The current in the hybrid battery is used to powerthe electric motor, but can also be used to heator cool the vehicle. The trip computer calculatesan approximate driving distance with the remain-ing current in the hybrid battery.

Tire pressure system
This symbol illuminates to indicatelow tire pressure. If there is a faultin the tire pressure system, thesymbol will first flash for approxi-mately 1 minute and then glowsteadily. This may occur if the sys-tem cannot detect or alert thedriver of low tire pressure asintended.
Emission control system
If this symbol illuminates after star-ting the engine, it could indicate afault in the vehicle's emission con-trol system. Have the vehiclechecked by a workshop. Volvo rec-ommends contacting an authorizedVolvo workshop.
Left/right turn signals
These symbols flash when the turnsignals are used.
SymbolMeaning

Speed-dependent steering wheelresistance
Speed-dependent power steering increases thesteering wheel resistance in pace with the vehi-cle's speed to give the driver an enhanced feel-ing of control and stability.
Steering may feel stiffer on highways. Whenparking and at low speeds, it will be easier tomove the steering wheel.
NOTE
In rare situations, the power steer-ing may become too hot andrequire temporary cooling – duringsuch time the power steering willwork at reduced output and the steeringwheel may feel more difficult to move.
When steering assistance is temporarilyreduced, the message Power steeringAssistance temporarily reduced and thissymbol will appear on the driver display.
While the power steering is working atreduced power, the driver support functionsand systems with steering assistance are notavailable.
