Drive-E ‒ purer driving pleasure
Volvo is committed to the well-being of its customers. As a natural part of this commit-ment, we care about the environment inwhich we all live. Concern for the environ-ment means an everyday involvement inreducing our environmental impact.
Volvo's environmental activities are based on a holistic view, which means we consider theoverall environmental impact of a productthroughout its complete life cycle. In this con-text, design, production, product use, andrecycling are all important considerations. Inproduction, Volvo has partly or completelyphased out several chemicals including CFCs,lead chromates, asbestos, and cadmium; andreduced the number of chemicals used in ourplants 50% since 1991. Volvo was the first in the world to introduce into production a three-way catalytic converterwith a Lambda sond, now called the heatedoxygen sensor, in 1976. The current version ofthis highly efficient system reduces emissionsof harmful substances (CO, HC, NOx) from theexhaust pipe by approximately 95 - 99% andthe search to eliminate the remaining emis-sions continues. Volvo is the only automobilemanufacturer to offer CFC-free retrofit kits forthe air conditioning system of all models as farback as the 1975 model 240. Advanced elec-tronic engine controls and cleaner fuels arebringing us closer to our goal. In addition to continuous environmental refinement of con-ventional gasoline-powered internal combus-tion engines, Volvo is actively looking atadvanced technology alternative-fuel vehicles. When you drive a Volvo, you become our part- ner in the work to lessen the vehicle's impacton the environment. To reduce your vehicle'senvironmental impact, you can:
Maintain proper air pressure in your tires.Tests have shown decreased fuel econ-omy with improperly inflated tires.
Follow the recommended maintenanceschedule in your Warranty and ServiceRecords Information booklet.
Drive at a constant speed whenever possi-ble.
See a trained and qualified Volvo servicetechnician as soon as possible for inspec-tion if the check engine (malfunction indi-cator) light illuminates, or stays on afterthe vehicle has started.
Properly dispose of any vehicle-relatedwaste such as used motor oil, used batter-ies, brake pads, etc.
When cleaning your vehicle, please usegenuine Volvo car care products. All Volvocar care products are formulated to beenvironmentally friendly.
Twin Engine vehicles
If possible, precondition the vehicle withthe charging cable before driving.
If preconditioning is not possible in coldweather, use the seat and steering wheelheating primarily. Avoid heating the entirepassenger compartment, which reducesthe hybrid battery's charge level.
Choose the
Pure drive mode to help mini-
mize electric power consumption.
In hilly terrain, put the gear selector in mode
B to utilize the electric motor's
braking function when the acceleratorpedal is released. This helps charge thehybrid battery.

Volvo Structural Parts StatementVolvo is one of the leading companies for car safety.
Volvo engineers and manufactures vehicles designed to help protect vehicle occupants inthe event of a collision. Volvos are designed to absorb the impact of a collision. This energy absorption systemincluding, but not limited to, structural compo-nents such as bumper reinforcement bars,bumper energy absorbers, frames, rails, fenderaprons, A-pillars, B-pillars and body panelsmust work together to maintain cabin integrityand protect the vehicle occupants. The supplemental restraint system including but not limited to air bags, side curtain airbags, and deployment sensors work togetherwith the above components to provide propertiming for air bag deployment. Due to the above, Volvo Car USA does not support the use of aftermarket, alternative oranything other than original Volvo parts forcollision repair. Volvo Car USA also recommends using Volvo- approved replacement glass. The use of after-market glass, particularly a windshield, canhave an adverse effect on collision avoidanceand advanced lighting systems. In addition Volvo does not support the use or re-use of structural components from an exist-ing vehicle that has been previously damaged. Although these parts may appear equivalent, itis difficult to tell if the parts have been previ-ously replaced with non-OE parts or if the parthas been damaged as a result of a prior colli-sion. The quality of these used parts may alsohave been affected due to environmentalexposure.

Driver distraction A driver has a responsibility to do everything possible to ensure his or her own safety andthe safety of passengers in the vehicle andothers sharing the roadway. Part of thisresponsibility is avoiding distractions, includ-ing performing activities that are not directlyrelated to controlling the vehicle in the drivingenvironment.

You may also own otherportable electronic devices for your own con-venience. When used properly and safely, theyenrich the driving experience. Improperly used,any of these could cause a distraction. For all of these systems, we want to provide the following warning that reflects the strongVolvo concern for your safety. Never use thesedevices or any feature of your vehicle in a waythat distracts you from the task of drivingsafely. Distraction can lead to a serious acci-dent. In addition to this general warning, weoffer the following guidance regarding specificnew features that may be found in your vehi-cle:

Airbags
The vehicle is equipped with airbags and inflatable curtains for the driver and passen-gers.
WARNING
If the airbag warning light stays on after the engine has started or if it illu-minates while you are driving, have thevehicle inspected by a trained andqualified Volvo service technician assoon as possible.
Never attempt to alter or repair any ofthe vehicle's safety systems yourself.Incorrectly performed repairs to anysystem could impair function and leadto serious injury. All work on these sys-tems should be performed by a trainedand qualified Volvo service technician.
WARNING
If your vehicle has become water-damaged in any way (e.g., soaked floor mats/stand-ing water on the floor of the vehicle), donot attempt to start the engine. This maycause airbag deployment, which couldresult in serious injury. Volvo recommendstowing the vehicle directly to an authorizedVolvo workshop. Before attempting to tow the vehicle:
1. Switch off the ignition for at least 10
minutes and disconnect the battery.
2. Follow the instructions for manually overriding the shiftlock system.
Deployed airbags
WARNING
If any of the airbags have deployed:
Do not attempt to drive the vehicle. Have it towed to an authorized work-shop.
If necessary, seek medical attention.

Driver/passenger-side airbags 3
As a supplement to the seat belts, the vehicle is equipped with driver and passenger sidefront airbags.
Driver/passenger side front airbags.
In a frontal collision, the airbags help protect the driver's and passenger's head, neck, faceand chest and the driver's knees and legs. A collision of a sufficiently violent force will trigger the sensors and one or more airbagswill inflate. The airbag helps cushion the initialimpact of the collision for the passenger. Theairbag deflates when compressed by the colli-sion. A small amount of powder will also bereleased from the airbag. This may appear tobe smoke and is normal. The entire process, from inflation to deflation of the airbag, occurs within tenths of a second.
