goal. In addition to continuous environmentalrefinement of conventional gasoline-poweredinternal combustion engines, Volvo is activelylooking at advanced technology alternative-fuelvehicles.
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.

DRIVER SUPPORT
* Option/accessory.260
Driver support systems
The vehicle is equipped with a number of driversupport systems that can provide the driver withactive or passive assistance in various situations.
The systems can, for example, help the driver:
maintain a set speed
maintain a set time interval to the vehicleahead
help prevent a collision by warning the driverand applying the brakes
park the vehicle.
Some of the systems are standard and others areoptions. This also varies from market to market.

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.

Standby mode due to action by the driver
Pilot Assist will be temporarily deactivated andput in standby mode if:
the brakes are applied.
the gear selector is moved to N.
a turn signal is used for more than 1 minute.
the vehicle is driven faster than the setspeed for more than 1 minute.
Temporarily increasing speed using the accelera-tor pedal, e.g. when passing another vehicle, willnot affect the setting. The vehicle will return tothe set speed when the accelerator pedal isreleased.
When the turn signals are used, Pilot Assist'ssteering assistance will be temporarily deacti-vated. When the turn signal is switched off, steer-ing assistance will be automatically reactivated ifthe traffic lane's side markings can still bedetected.
Automatic standby mode
Pilot Assist is dependent on other systems, such
as Electronic Stability Control (ESC32). If any ofthese other systems stops working, Pilot Assistwill automatically switch off.
WARNING
With automatic standby mode, the driver iswarned by an acoustic signal and a messageon the instrument panel.
The driver must then regulate vehiclespeed, apply the brakes if necessary, andmaintain a safe distance to other vehicles.
Adaptive Cruise Control may go into standbymode if, e.g.:
the driver opens the door.
the brake temperature is high.
the driver's hands are not on the steeringwheel.
the parking brake is applied.
the engine speed (rpm) is too low/high.
the driver unbuckles the seat belt.
one or more of the wheels lose traction.
the camera/radar sensor is covered by snowor heavy rain (the camera lens/radar wavesare blocked).
your vehicle's speed goes under 5 km/h(3 mph) and Pilot Assist cannot determine ifthe vehicle ahead is stationary or if it isanother object, e.g. a speed bump.
your vehicle's speed goes under 5 km/h(3 mph) and the vehicle ahead turns so thatPilot Assist no longer has a vehicle to follow.
Reactivating Pilot Assist from standby
mode
Note: This illustration is general and details may varydepending on model.
To reactivate Pilot Assist:
–Press the button on the steering wheel(1).
>Speed will be set to the most recentlystored speed.

DRIVER SUPPORT

* Option/accessory.295
NOTE
Driver support can keep the vehicle stationaryfor no more than 5 minutes – after that timethe parking brake is applied and the functionis deactivated.
The parking brake must be released beforedriver support can be reactivated.
Deactivation of the Auto-hold brake function
In certain situations, auto-hold will be deactivatedwhen the vehicle is at a standstill and the func-tion will go into standby mode. This means thatthe brakes will be released and the vehicle couldbegin to roll. The driver must actively apply thebrakes to keep the vehicle stationary.
This can occur if:
the driver depresses the brake pedal
the parking brake is applied
the gear selector is moved to the P, N or Rpositions
the driver puts the function in standby mode.
Auto Activate Parking Brake
In certain situations, the parking brake will beapplied to keep the vehicle at a standstill.
This occurs if the function is keeping the vehiclestationary using the brakes and:
the driver opens the door or unbuckleshis/her seat belt
the function has kept the vehicle at a stand-still for more than approx. 5 minutes
the brakes overheat
the driver switches off the engine manually.

Passing assistance
Passing assistance can assist the driver whenpassing other vehicles. The function can beused with Pilot Assist or Adaptive Cruise Con-
trol* (ACC40).
How passing assistance works
When Pilot Assist or ACC is following anothervehicle and you indicate that you intend to pass
that vehicle by using the turn signal41, the systemwill begin accelerating toward the vehicle aheadbefore your vehicle has moved into the passinglane.
The function will then delay a speed reduction toavoid early braking as your vehicle approaches aslower-moving vehicle.
The function remains active until your vehicle haspassed the other vehicle.
WARNING
Please note that this function can be acti-vated in more situations than just passinganother vehicle, such as when a direction indi-cator is used to indicate a lane change orbefore exiting to another road – the vehiclewill then briefly accelerate.
