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.

possible collision and help the driver act in timeto prevent it. If the driver does not react to thewarning and the risk of collision is determined tobe imminent, City Safety can automatically applythe brakes.
Lane assistance (LKA) is another example of afunction that can help prevent accidents by help-ing the driver - on expressways and similar largerroads - to reduce the risk of the car accidentallyleaving its own lane.
The function Steering aid during increasedcollision risk can help the driver reduce the riskof the car leaving its lane unintentionally and/orcolliding with another vehicle or obstacle byactively steering the car back into its lane and/orswerving.
Protection
To help protect the driver and passengers, thevehicle is equipped with seat belt tensioners thatpull the seat belts taut in collisions and other crit-ical situations. The vehicle also has airbags, inflat-able curtains and the Whiplash ProtectionSystem (WHIPS), which helps prevent whiplashinjuries.

Data recording
As part of Volvo's commitment to safety andquality, certain information is recorded regardingvehicle operation, functionality and incidents.
US market only:
EDR
This vehicle is equipped with an event datarecorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR isto record, in certain crash or near crash-likesituations, such as an air bag deployment orhitting a road obstacle, data that will assist inunderstanding how a vehicle's systemsperformed. The EDR is designed to record datarelated to vehicle dynamics and safety systemsfor a short period of time, typically 30 seconds orless. The EDR in this vehicle is designed torecord such data as:
How various systems in your vehicle wereoperating;
Whether or not the driver and passengersafety belts were buckled/fastened;
How far (if at all) the driver was depressingthe accelerator and/or brake pedal; and,
How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a betterunderstanding of the circumstances in whichcrashes and injuries occur. NOTE: EDR data arerecorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crashsituation occurs; no data are recorded by theEDR under normal driving conditions and no
personal data (e.g., name, gender, age, and crashlocation) are recorded. However, other parties,such as law enforcement, could combine theEDR data with the type of personally identifyingdata routinely acquired during a crashinvestigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, specialequipment is required, and access to the vehicleor the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehiclemanufacturer, other parties, such as lawenforcement, that have the special equipment,can read the information if they have access tothe vehicle or the EDR.
ASDR
This vehicle is equipped with an Active SafetyData Recorder (ASDR). This data recorder canrecord information related to the usage of thecar, functional errors and active safety actuations(e.g. auto brake). The information saved is usedby technicians for service and maintenance todiagnose and repair possible faults that hasoccurred in the vehicle and to fulfil certain legalrequirements. The registered data can also, incongregated form, be used for research- andproduct development –purposes to continuouslyimprove the safety and quality of Volvo Cars. Formore information contact your local Volvo retailer.

Canadian market only:
This vehicle is equipped with an “Event DataRecorder” (EDR). The main purpose of the EDRis to register and record data in traffic accidentsor accident-like situations, e.g. if an airbagdeploys or if the vehicle hits an obstacle in theroad. This data is recorded in order to help under-stand how the vehicle's systems perform in thesetypes of situations. The EDR is designed torecord data related to vehicle dynamics andsafety systems for a short period of time, usually30 seconds or less.
The EDR in this vehicle is designed to recorddata in traffic accidents or accident-like situationssuch as:
How the various systems in the vehicle per-formed;
Whether the driver and passenger seat beltswere tightened/buckled;
The driver's use of the accelerator/brakepedal;
How fast the vehicle was moving.
This data can help provide a better understandingof the circumstances in which traffic accidentsand injuries occur. The EDR records data only if anon-trivial accident situation occurs. EDR doesnot record any data during normal driving condi-tions. The system also never registers data onwho is driving the vehicle or the geographicallocation of the accident or near-accident. How-
ever, other parties, such as law enforcement,could combine the EDR data with the type of per-sonally identifiable information that is routinelyacquired during an accident investigation. Specialequipment and access to either the vehicle or theEDR is required to read this recorded data.
In addition to the EDR, the vehicle is equippedwith a number of computers that continuouslycontrol and monitor the vehicle's performance.These computers may record data during normaldriving conditions, particularly if they detect afault relating to the vehicle's operation and func-tionality or upon activation of the vehicle's activedriver support functions (e.g. City Safety or theauto-brake function).
Some of this recorded data is required by techni-cians performing service and maintenance inorder to diagnose and rectify any faults that mayhave occurred in the vehicle. The recorded infor-mation is also needed to enable Volvo to fulfilllegal and other regulatory requirements. Informa-tion registered in the vehicle is stored in its com-puters until the vehicle is serviced or repaired.
In addition to the above, the recorded informationmay be used in aggregated form for research andproduct development purposes in order to contin-uously improve the safety and quality of Volvovehicles.
Volvo will not provide this information to any thirdparties without the vehicle owner's consent. How-ever, national legislation and regulations may
require Volvo to disclose this type of informationto law enforcement or other authorities that canclaim a legal right to the information. Specialtechnical equipment, which Volvo and workshopsthat have entered agreements with Volvo haveaccess to, is required to read and interpret therecorded data. Volvo is responsible for ensuringthat information provided to Volvo in conjunctionwith service and maintenance is stored and han-dled securely and in compliance with applicablelegal requirements. For more information, pleasecontact a Volvo retailer.

Seat belt tensioners
The vehicle is equipped with standard and elec-tric seat belt tensioners that can help tension theseat 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.
When a critical situation has passed, the seat beltand the electric seat belt tensioner are resetautomatically. However, they can also be resetmanually.
WARNING
Never attempt to alter or repair the seat belton your own. Volvo recommends contactingan authorized Volvo workshop.
If the seat belt has been exposed to extremeforces, e.g. in conjunction with a collision, theentire seat belt must be replaced. Even if theseat belt appears undamaged, some of itsprotective properties may have been lost. Alsoreplace the seat belt if it is worn or damaged.The new seat belt must be type approved andintended for the same seating position as thereplaced seat belt.
