208 Clean Zone Interior Package*
Clean Zone Interior Package (CZIP) is a series
of modifications that filters even more allergy and
asthma-inducing substances from the passenger
compartment.
CZIP includes the following:
An enhanced function that starts the blower
when the vehicle is unlocked using the
remote key. The blower will then fill the pas-
senger compartment with fresh air. The func-
tion starts when required and switches off
automatically after a period of time or when
one of the passenger compartment doors is
opened. The amount of time the blower runs
gradually decreases due to reduced need up
until the vehicle is 4 years old.
The fully automatic Interior Air Quality
System (IAQS).

Passenger compartment air filter (p. 209) Interior Air Quality System*
Interior Air Quality System (IAQS) is a fully auto-
matic air quality system that removes gases and
particles to reduce odors and contaminants in
the passenger compartment.
IAQS is part of the Clean Zone Interior Package
(CZIP) and removes air contaminants such as
particles, hydrocarbons, nitric oxides and ground-
level ozone.
If the system's air quality sensors detect contami-
nants in the outside air, the air intake closes and
air recirculation is activated.
NOTE To ensure optimal air quality in the passenger
compartment, the air quality sensor should
always be engaged.
Recirculation is limited in cold weather to pre-
vent fogging.
In the event of fogging, use the defroster
functions for the windshield, side windows
and rear window.

To maintain the high performance of the climate
control system, the filter must be replaced regu-
larly. Follow Volvo's service schedule for recom-
mended replacement intervals. When driving in
areas with a lot of smog, dust, etc., the filter may
need to be changed more frequently.
